We will continue to invest in a generous rewards budget, but there will no longer be a pre-determined targeted distribution. Managers and leaders will have flexibility to allocate rewards in the manner that best reflects the performance of

I wonder - have any of you who run large projects which are sensitive to time changes ever have to deal with DST? I ran a MMORPG, which had specific events at certain times of the day, on certain days of the week. Now imagine: North America

It's not that bad once you read into it. It's not bad at all. Google displays my recommendations to my friends, and since I only really like/+1 things I would recommend, it seems natural, and maybe even convenient. Unfortu

Here's an investment banker joke I've been hearing oddly often recently: "How do you get a million dollars?" -> "Invest a billion dollars in the airline industry". On a more serious note: there's a lot

I'm thinking this article is a little exaggerated. I applied to, and got into an Ivy, but had no sort of preparation at all. I was suspended over 20 times throughout my schooling, had 0 hours of community service, didn't find out

The industrial design is solid, and though it is being manufactured in small batches, it has the build quality you might expect from something being mass-produced. Not sure what to make of this statement. The design is beautiful, but I

I feel like there should be secondary checks for things like this. When I was running a MMORPG, I was terrified of duplication bugs ( dupes ). In many ways, dupes have the same effect on a game economy as this type of theft has on the rea

The world is heading towards wearable computing, and honestly, Google has done a fantastic job hyping up Glass. When I first heard about Glass a while back, I told all my friends, thinking it was the coolest thing in the world. The majority

Right. Business things, like hacking is mostly experience. But much like hacking, I would argue, there are rockstar/ninja/superstar/10x/<insert other (deprecated?) term here> business people as well. A lot of it has to do with nat

There are many ways you can "politely disagree", and depending on how you do so, the results for any human transaction (regardless of whether it's at the airport) will be drastically different. You need to observe the person you're dealin

Respectably, I disagree with the OP on this entire subject. Yes, the Adria scandal was not constructive to any party involved - but the way it's being analyzed is dead wrong: When women in this industry are hurt, we’re all hurt. No. No. I
