I really hate DOL stats. They have a menu of jobs, and you have to slot people into them. Often you have jobs that are halfway between 2 and you don't know which is "better", so you just pick one (e.g. I write a lof of excel macros, does th

If they've netted that much, that means they've sold. As such, there's a good chance they've retired, or at least only work on their own side projects now. Not everyone sells a company and then starts another one. Also, rich people have acc

It's a highly competitive industry with very thin (read often negative) margins, which does not attract a lot of "normal" competitors. It's also highly regulated and extremely capital intensive, making it further unattractive to compete wit

I don't trust them not because they let their certs expire earlier this year causing an extended outage, it's that they didn't have a robust process for managing and preventing such an issue.

It would probably be possible to do it cheaper, but there is tremendous cost advantage at scale in this business. Then there's the question of focus. Do I want to have to hire the ops folks? their managers? create new payscales and review s

percentage isn't really fair. I'm sure it's a vast improvement, but a lot of requests were failing (before the change) due to what appears to be being under-scaled ... at least the author was fair in stating he was after a link-baity title.

The "what and the why" are missing from both the page linked to, and the first link in the page. I define "missing" as "not easily found while skimming".
