Hanging onto property long after you need it? Thats crazy. I'm of the belief you should never sell property unless you're in dire straights or you know it's never going to a viable asset (including in this if you have a prope

Probably the best to ensure high quality students are admitted. I think the idea of non-test admission is interesting and has merits, but looking at people I know and their kids performance and where they're going...not great for the s

The rural county I grew up in got tired of empty promises and with cash from the Obama administration has started rolling out fiber county wide. You can get gigabit fiber for a reasonable cost 10 miles from the nearest town and down semi ma

Hard to believe he decamped from his house in Florida which was the genesis of the xanth novels to move to California. I didn’t realize he was almost pushing 90 years old either.

I was poking around on fiverr the other day and I was kind of floored by the number of ‘dmca for hire’ services. It looked like for a very reasonable fee you could engage these people to spam out fake dmca notices across the internet to rem

Also don’t forget scale—-in/out might have ‘dozens’ of restaurants but McDonald’s has ‘thousands’. They also have software that was developed entirely in house that is unbelievably optimized. Weird, but usable. They are a company that

What makes me really mad is that I mark a sender as 'not spam' over and over again in Gmail and where does it keep going? Spam. I have a bunch of system emails and I can't convince Google to just give me my damned mail.

In my parents county (very rural), the local electric coop is running fiber on all their poles. Its possible that my parents living 10 miles from the nearest town (2 4-way stops, a grocery store and a couple of gas stations) will get gigabi
