You already have a bunch of valuable comments to wade through. One tip though - do not think of large companies as one monolithic organization. If you look around, you will spot those smaller 'startup'y teams inside big orgs where you'll le

This is completely nuts. I'm surprised that this company gets away (and actually be pretty successful) with it's predatorial behavior towards it's customers. I searched for DecorMyEyes, and while the first result is the company itself, the

Well, this advice didn't mess me up but pushed me in the opposite direction. When I was a kid, my parents told me that little girls like me should study in a local college, get good grades, find a comfortable job (preferably an accountant),

As a person living in Seattle (rains a lot!) who is of a darker skin color because of my race, I get told every now and then that I must be very lucky because I'm never going to be Vit D deficient. I'm surprised that people think having dar

It's nice to be able to go to one place to look for some .NET API. I no longer need to Google search a topic, and then open multiple tabs, each for MSDN, SO, experts-exchange, and other forums.

I used to drink 3 cups of coffee a day. I've now brought it down to twice a week, and it's stayed that way for almost a year. I'm very happy about that. When I do drink coffee, I prefer french press coffee. I live in Seattle and there are p

As I was reading this article, I was thinking, "Really? You can ask that and they do it for you?". It just never occurred to me that I would need a personal assistant to help me find a tub of nachos (or help me with a crossword or any other

I'd like to call bullshit on this one. Disclaimer: I'm probably one of those insane women who wants to do a startup. 1) I'm tired of articles like these which have little to no research backing up their claims on why there are so few women

That's great advice! Thanks so much. I have a couple of ideas, but they aren't terribly big ideas. They are neat, and I would use them if they were available as a product today. I'm OK with building small products from a few neat ideas - I

I'm getting married in a little over a month and my thoughts resonate a lot with your statement on not spending a lot on the cards. I'm designing the cards on my own (using Gimp, Lightroom and Sketchbook app on iPad - never done this before

When my friend from college visited me (it's been many years since college, and now we both have jobs), I couldn't understand why I just couldn't hang out like before. I mean, sure, I could spend a couple of days and show my friend around t
