Instead, you can write a letter and send it snail mail to an old friend.

I would add "The Elements of Style" by Strunk. I think it is a classic in that area. Edit: Also "On Writing Well" by Zinsser, another classic.

When I lived in DC I commuted from Huntington to Foggy Bottom. That was roughly 40 mins, with 30 min on the train and 5 minutes on each side for getting to the train station and then from the train station to work. However, I could have re

That sounds nice, but 1 hour is a major commute in my book.

My friend rents and has 2 pit bulls. His rent is actually quite reasonable. Even has some outdoor space...

Sorry, I didn't catch the 'some' college part. It's too bad you couldn't find a way to reduce the commutes. Classes 8-1pm sounds like a full load. I was thinking about 1 class at a time.

Which investment has more risk? A typical market neutral hedge fund or a typical crowd-funded type start up. Obviously there are tons of idiosyncrasies, but I'm thinking on average. I noticed that I am allowed to invest in companies vi

GPA or the UK equivalent seems to be like knowing the mean of a distribution, you'd be much better off taking a look at the entire distribution, or in this case, a transcript. Then you would see if a person challenged themselves or ju

Could be due to password sharing. Maybe ad revenues are preferred. I'm thinking about Netflix where there is rampant password sharing.

There is an expectation of objectivity in journalism. I think being an activist makes it more difficult for readers to trust your objectivity. I'm not taking anything away from contributions from activists, they are often on the front
