Yeah this really bums me out because a lot of the time I just use Gmail on my laptop as my phone. Do you know any other services that have this type of functionality?

Are you saying stock value increases only come from reducing employee benefits and compensation or from lowering the quality and safety of products and services? Seems like that is simply not true across the board. If a company sells say so

Not the op but connecting through SSH works great in my experience and is very straight forward in the UI. I feel like updates are pretty frequent as well. I also love that it saves all my queries unlike psequel.

Small thing, but wasn't it JP Morgan's clients buying bitcoin through their brokerage service, not actually JP Morgan? https://twitter.com/ToneVays/status/909032026455642113

Came across your site the other day. I was wondering is the 17% from their base salary before taxes? So they (if in say California) pay federal, state, & you guys off the top? Great idea either way!

US companies do withhold money from each paycheck, but this varies not just by how much you make, but also by how many dependents you have and a few other things [0]. The US also has default deductions, or a person can choose to itemize. Th

I don't know the elevation gain on that run, but the 100mile track record is 11:28:03 so I would guess not much gain on the road record :) Interestingly the women's track record is slower than the road record. https://

No the numbers I listed were entries of each type in 2015. That doesn't include ones from previous years. You said immigration was controlled. The fact that roughly the same amount of legal immigrants came into the country as illega

Apples and oranges? Let's do some math. Refugees in 2015: 69,920. Asylum in 2015: 26,124. That gives you a total of 1,147,075... yes still less then illegal immiration. Adding naturalization (730,259) gives you 1,877,334, except natur

Hmmm, that's an interesting thought exercise. I wonder what would happen in FB/Google blocked access in states that voted Trump, or in the future for states of X candidate but not Y and the impact that would have. What happens i

(since I don't post much, not sure why I can't respond to your last comment) However... what? > I could say the other way too. Immigration is not 100% uncontrolled, so it is controlled. However, what we do have is controlled

Parent comment also is only referring to low-wage jobs so I suppose the entire H1B thing is irrelevant to the discussion. Not sure what you're looking for... you asked for a source - seems clear that yes, wages for some groups are &qu

In regards to legal immigrants there seems to be frequent discussions on HN about H1B visas and their effects. Here's an article talking about them. http://www.sciencemag.org/careers/2015/05/economists-h-

I don't think that's what he means at all. Nowhere in his statement does he say he shouldn't have to obey the law. Think the complaining is more about the vast amount of regulations that there are. I'm sure you break law
