bostonOUon The Programmer Salary Taboo

I just moved from Oklahoma to Tennessee and CNN's housing estimate is way off. It says TN is 20% cheaper and it is actually just the opposite.

bostonOUon Ask HN: Review my Startup - http://Cardnap.com

Looks good. Couple of issues:

When I search for Best Buy cards and sort by Discount (descending), the top result says a card value of $25 with a price of $24 is an 8% discount. It should be a %4 discount.

When I click the buy button for that Best Buy card (the seller is Cardpool), there isn't an option to buy the $25 gift card. Only $50 and $100 options are available.

Site looks good overall. Nice work.

bostonOUon Is there such a thing as a sustainable todo system?

I think paper-based works well for many people because it is (or seems) easier than technology-based tools. Grabbing a marker and writing on the white board just naturally feels easier than opening the todo list and correctly organizing the task. A technology-based system would surpass paper-based if it can replicate that natural feeling of ease.
