I'm not sure I would consider a flaming stick as flying under the radar.

I think mine is $2500. I'm thinking about raising it to the maximum. I'll just keep the deductible amount in my HSA.

I use Humana. I'm single, 38, male, in good shape, non-smoker and I pay ~$180 a month for health insurance.

Get a high deductible. A low deductible is nice as part of a group plan, but when you're not on a group plan you're just over paying for extras. Instead, get a health savings account (HSA) and save income (tax free) for the purpose of paying for your health services before you meet your deductible.

Keep your health insurance primarily for major issues. You want insurance there if you get cancer or you're involved in a life threatening accident. You're better off paying for the minor things with an HSA.

For International travel, get travelers insurance. I spend a lot of time in Asia and I use FrontierMedEx. They'll pay your doctors fees in cases of an emergency and will fly you back to the US if you need major care. You only pay for travelers insurance while you're traveling and it's reasonably cheap too. I pay less per month for FrontierMedEx than I do for Humana.

Good luck!

Cool to see something like this in Go. :-)

Yep!

Has anyone used TypeScript in conjunction with Node.js? I love developing in the Node ecosystem, but the lack of type checking is irritating.

How about saving starred items?

100% of my income comes from freelancing. I build web apps and APIs in Node.js. I charge an hourly rate and I bill once every 14 days. I only take on projects that are going to be at least two months in duration and I give my clients 14 days to pay after being invoiced.

I don't usually have much spare time, although it's not because of my billing practices.

If you're doing projects that are only going to last a week or two, just get 50% up front and 50% on completion.

Is it Google Reader API compatible? I have an iPhone app I want to continue using. It currently syncs with Google Reader via the API.

Is it Google Reader API compatible? I have an iPhone app that talks to Google Reader that I want to get migrated to another service.

I'd love to know this as well. I haven't had time to find a replacement yet.

Does it have Google Reader API compatibility? I have an app on my iPhone that uses the Google Reader API. I want something that will work with it.

Sweet idea! Now where's the version for Vim?
