Broke? What does this have to do with broke? This is a melodramatic, entitled version of broke. Being broke isn't a contest or anything, but this is not broke. This is experiencing hardships through poor life choices, not broke. Having a car is usually not broke; a brand new car? Not broke. Electricity, a job, running…

You can pay off your card more frequently that just when it's due or once a month; this ensures you won't forget or get trapped with something and then you're essentially disciplining yourself to treat it like a debit card. I am definitely a fan of getting rewards and not carrying a balance, since most stores already…

No, not weird. Some people cannot relate to anything without making it All About Them... as any gander into Web comments will verify :)

Can't be answered without asking 'for what?' For a job, or for personal use? For media, content, life management? To create or to consume? All important. Sometimes a familiar workflow, standards compliance, and support are worth paying for, sometimes the features are what makes it worth buying. And of course if it's…

Oddly enough, I started dreaming about this topic last night. Why, I have no idea. But in my dream, I pointed out that climate is important; depending on where you live/work, you may need lightweight and/or heavyweight options. I recommend building starting with black pants, tan or cream pants, dark grey pants, and…

I respect people that try and add me to their networking circles because they know I can be helpful to them. I know my insight is valuable, and I have helped many be successful. I enjoy mentoring, but only help those who demonstrate the commitment to work, listen, and learn. And I don't help people who merely see me…

Because that has never occurred to me! Wow, thank you for such enlightening perspective, how did I ever get by without it? <_<

I wouldn't mind even a more generic version of this, something that just shows things that you can talk to other people about. My kids, love them dearly, but mon dieu are they incapable of conversing about anything other than themselves and their interests. Ask about how others are doing? Learn about and take an…

I'm talking about 'make sure whatever you post is not illegal.' What is illegal varies from State to State, Country to Country. Check the laws and abide by them. I'm not going to cite sources for that, any reasonable grown-up can look up the laws if they choose, or decide not to and suffer whatever consequences as a…

You can't post an illegal ad regardless, thus the illegal part. Whether or not you discriminate in who you pick is your business, I suppose.

Just make sure if you do post an ad with your 'ideal' roommate that you not break any laws in doing so. You cannot post discriminatory ads!

This is good, but very oriented to a) freelancers, b) devs, c) people in teams. Nothing wrong with that, but as the title is just on 'working from home' being so specific misses the marks for other scenarios.

I have a bit of a 'dream' job. Great pay, great people, get to do stuff I enjoy, lots of travel for free - suits me well. But I have found that, with this and every other 'dream' (or decent) job I have ever had, I hear people telling me that I am 'lucky.' To which I have to counter with: F.U.

Is it true that it was a Comcast issue? No problems on UVerse...

Uh, that's the problem. Not only do you keep saying "I'm not defending misogyny BUT [statement defending misogyny]," over and over again, you also keep assuming that geek = male, default = male. You use 'we' to define 'geeks' and the treatment 'they' received, as if it is synonymous with male. Your sexism and…

If you're going to shop online, open a eBates account (not sure if I can put my referral link here... at the end of the eBates URL it's /rf.do?referrerid=vIA0g99lxH0K7rvWOr2hCQ%3D%3D). Many major retailers are on eBates, and they have lots of coupon codes there. All you have to do is go to the retailer's site from…
