Yep. But looking at it as a shareholder, I don't think this should have been a negative. Spending a lot of time to work with an individual client in order to make $1k-$2k or whatever they make ushering a loan over to fannie or freddie

I see this everywhere but I can't see how it's true. I'm guessing that a company's largest expenses are (probably in order, too): People, Technology, Office space. Most companies, especially smaller companies, do not act

Him signing the check doesn't matter to me either way. However, there's some irony in the fact that we got money, printed out of nowhere, signed by the previous president, and yet there are people that act like inflation is solely

This administration has created a ton of money, but I also remember a previous administration going out of their way to literally put their name on the stimulus checks that were sent out following their trillions of dollars of stimulus pass

I see statements like this a lot, and I have to say they don't compute to me at all. They are eerily similar to the "cancel culture" conversation that comes up whenever someone quits out of their own volition. Who is forcin

Think of the golfer as LeBron James and the caddy as an NBA analyst. The analyst knows that a specific defender is weak when driving to their left, but the 43 year old 5'2" overweight analyst will never score a point against that

I have no connection to Google, but I'm really, really, impressed that Google was okay with him sending these comics, internally, to upwards of 15 THOUSAND employees. Some of these are pretty scathing- drones in Google colors, the repe

It does have some sugar, it's just very small amounts: https://smartlabel.unileverusa.com/048001213487-0001-en-US/i... I do wonder how the addition of a tiny amount of sugar, less than the amount of added salt, co

"Most" boys play some kind of sport. I have to assume it's the vast majority. My argument is that in those kids' lives, I would wager many of the authority figures that they spend significant time with and respect the mo

The only way that you can be surrounded by women for your entire upbringing is if you don't engage in sports. Sports are typically hours per day. Coaches are absolute authority figures, and there are very few female coaches. I can&#x27

The fact that the metric here is "Market Share" tells me that this is most likely a big nothing burger. Market Share makes sense if you're talking about retail, or browsers.. but a static recurring payment? Why would Netflix

Personally I never set up auto pay. Why? Because it hits a little harder (and you pay more attention) when you're actually typing it in every month. Sure, there's a risk I might miss a payment and get dinged, but you're guard

There are a number of countries with very high renewable usage that are in cold climates. Denmark comes to mind, where, on average, it's right around freezing for months at a time. Hell, they have turbines in the extremely corrosive oc

Again though, the retail investors unload to who ? Everyone knows GME is over valued by an insane amount, who do people expect to be snapping up shares at $500?

Really depends on query complexity. Keep in mind that creating a CTE doesn't really materialize any of the resulting steps' data, it's just a way to encapsulate logic. Chaining together complex CTEs is effectively the same as

I have the same thoughts after reading it. In fact, the author expounds a little bit on your question later, saying: "An October 2019 study on the mental well-being of crew, commissioned by a group affiliated with the International Tra

EDIT: After looking into it, it seems like Spark calls both things predicate pushdowns (eliminating unnecessary row group reads via the statistics AND pushing the predicates down to the lowest possible level). You're right, I'm wr

I'll add to this that because AWS is simply piecing different technologies together under the hood, there are a lot of data type issues. Another example is that some date/time columns got brought in and crawled as a string. That&#

Seems like you're making this a little bit more political than you should be. If I work for a bank and I find out they have predatory lending (and I had the luxury of being in demand), I'd likely threaten to quit unless that was c

Which, to me, really illustrates the astroturfing going on. I can go months without ever seeing any reference to the Stasi and, in this single comment section, I see dozens of references? There have been plenty of similar programs through h

I see these stats popping up when people express fear and it's crazy to me that we've hit the point where saying "Well, you probably won't even die!" is supposed to assuage concern. Sure, I probably won't die

Usually you'll keep the transaction logs for a certain period, say for two weeks. That gives you point in time recovery for any moment in that two weeks (assuming you've set up everything correctly!). Logs past that are usually ar

Our healthcare costs are not high because six people are redundant. The health insurance business was almost a $900 B market in 2017, that's enough to pay 12,000,000 people $75,000/yr. Adding six, or six thousand, or 600,000 redun
