If you are deciding how much money you want to have without thinking about how much you will spend, then isn’t that number completely arbitrary?

Por que no los dos?

I typically enjoy How I Work, but I can always count on hearing at least one new dumb buzzword like “hyperlocal commerce” every time.

Agreed. The statement “If something is important I handle it right away or book it on my calendar or ask someone on my team to run with it” just wouldn’t work for me. If I’ve got 4 things to do, and they each take 2 hours, I’d rather have a to-do list so that I don’t need to keep track of them in my head, and I…

My problem definitely a lack of prep. I’ve been cooking for myself for 10 years, eating out about once a week. I always plan my meals in advance, I always have the ingredients I need, and I always have a place to store it. I just personally don’t enjoy spending an hour working in the kitchen. It doesn’t help me…

Okay Dad.

I think a lot of people are going to take issue with the 4th C. For me, cooking doesn’t help me wind down. Maybe I’m just doing it wrong. But if I wasn’t so damn cheap, I would be happy to pay someone else to cook my meals for me, and I think it would do wonders for me mentally.

I don’t imagine that most people actually think that the 5-second rule is real. I think most people just use it to get over the germophobia that comes with dropping a piece of food on the ground.

Furthermore, my experience has been that people typically apply the 5-second rule to dry foods, that dirt and things are…

How is this a life hack?

I get the feeling that the author of this article is really just upset that Coca-Cola decided to cater to “macho men”.

I would actually argue the exact opposite. An individual’s personal experience is highly unlikely (at least in the case of drug addiction) to generalize to a larger population. So if someone says “I got sober after my parents threw me out of the house”, that doesn’t mean that every parent with an addicted child should…

I think the point of the article is that even fit people get winded because your body just isn’t prepared for the sudden work, and it takes your body a moment to catch up and start delivering oxygen to your muscles.

This has to be one of the worst articles I’ve seen on lifehacker. It’s sort of preachy without actually saying why more than two drinks is really that bad. Not to mention that it doesn’t take into account a multitude of factors that can impact your level of drunkenness, such as body weight, sex, tolerance, and…

From my limited experience, I’m inclined to agree with the author. I sometimes use my dresser at home as a standing desk, or my office mate’s adjustable desk (when he’s not around), and both are very helpful when I’m a little tired, or just tired of sitting. However, I can’t imagine committing to using a standing desk…

I use my dresser as a standing desk. Cost me $60 and holds my clothes.

The government regulates utilities not only because they are a necessity, but also because they are a natural monopoly due to the incredibly high barriers to entry. So this argument doesn’t really hold up in the context of health insurance, where the market could potentially be competitive.

I think it was a fair comment. The article states “McAfee recently identified a dangerous zero-day attack in the wild that targets all Microsoft Office users.” which led me to believe they disliked all Office programs.

I’m curious why economists deserve outrage. Any first year economics grad student (hell, anybody who’s taken principles of micro) can tell you that concentrated market power leads to higher prices and lower quality.

I just use Evernote to store recipes. I’m the same as you in that I always worry that websites will disappear,so i like to have them stored somewhere.

I just checked, and it definitely has that option under ‘route options’.
