The video shows its really, really, loud. $25M for a selfie stick seems like a little much. Now, if you have an intelligent drone that follows me and takes videos and pictures and automatically makes movies out of it, plays theme music whil

The flier even went out of the way to call the leaders "male." Lemme guess, it was designed by a male, too.

At some companies, divulging performance or personal issues about an ex-employee could land you in a lot of trouble. Be sure you're clear to talk about previous employees freely. If a company goes around and bad-mouths every employee t

My guess is they are moving loss leaders towards customers that have a higher life-time value, and want to minimize sales to unloyal customers that cost them on a transaction basis.

The article confesses the author doesn't know Ruby. Also, the "blog platform" shouldn't require command line knowledge. Kinda defeats the purpose of blog software, honestly.

In my mind - this is apples and oranges. Within my organization we have both Tableau, and 5 data scientists. We are operating at a fairly large scale, so Tableau can't handle our data directly. Ultimately, we use our own backend (along

It'd make more sense if they carried it - but advertised their own products heavily around it. At least they would be honest about the "selection" game. But let's be honest - Amazon devices push more people into Prime, A

Your argument is suggesting that there are enough people in the market using their tax deductions as a strategy for paying their mortgages. I'd argue that if you are that close to not being able to afford your mortgage, you won't

What are you talking about? Mortgage interest deduction determines how much money a private person pays in taxes to the federal government each year, relative to their income minus deductions. It does not directly impact home sale price.

Trust me, its not mortgage interest rate deductions that are driving up demand and prices for homes. Overseas buyers paying all cash are driving up prices - and stock markets pumped full of zero interest cash are causing soaring prices. If

Disagree. I've owned 3 homes and my mortgage interest deduction made no difference on whether or not I purchased. The difference between renting and owning is income, savings rate, and lifestyle. If you can't afford to buy, you ei

The mortgage interest deduction "hurts" only government tax revenues. Raising the tide on minimum wage impacts every business that has employees, regardless of what their cost structure is. What if your business worked in such a w

It would completely remove the necessity to be productive. That can't turn out well. What's preventing me from having as many babies as I can knowing that they too will not have to work or find a job to be supported? I know this w
