Isn't it obvious that it's because they aren't interested in a career in engineering? For some people having a higher income is not more important than having a career that they enjoy or that inspires them.

At a 100K salary, over 24 years you would pay 72K. The same cost of 72K as a loan at 6.8% paid over 24 years would amount to $146,229.96 with total interest paid of $74,229.96 That's more interest than the cost of the loan. You would h

I think the article brings up a lot of great points and analysis, but misses the mark on one of the key foundational elements that makes these videos so different. Gangnam Style and Harlem Shake are different types of media. Gangnam Style i

Read his title he said "if you'll ONLY use the kit lense". ONLY. You said: "I've since upgraded to a lot of different lenses". He's not talking about you. He's talking about the quality of kit lenses and why it really isn't worth the invest

Regardless of what idea you pick, if you're going to start any business you need to do it the right way. First - research your business idea. A google search for "selling beer online" would have quickly lead you to many articles like this:

It's more than just libel though. While truthful, your employer might not like being associated with the opinions that you're sharing. That's why employers have social media policies - to protect themselves by educating their employees so t

That looks very interesting, but typing several lines of text rather than speaking them is painful to sit through. I would suggest turning off the music next time and just tell people what it is and how it works.

I think the main problem is that Nathan incorporated the ConvertKit landing page versions INTO the article. Because the width is the same and the design of the blog and product page are somewhat similar, it's difficult to see while scannin

As a developer you may not want it - but my friends who are copywriters, editors and content strategists will LOVE this. A simple way to grab existing web content as markdown, which many are already using to write and edit their content.
