None. I exaggerate a bit. I don't mean to be negative, but you always need to monitor, check, manage. Employees or third parties. In my experience, you never "outsource your worries", you just manage them better. Third partie

Congrats Clément and team! Just spent 45 minutes reading the blogs! Two random comments I liked: "Last night we saw a meteorite land a couple miles away from us - it was only small but it had a big blue trail" "For example,

Are you saying one should not value a company based on what they're saying? Then in Q2 when they wrote "Based on our preparedness at this time, we are confident we can produce just over 1,500 vehicles in Q3", then we should n

I have been selling to big companies for a while. I always sign. The time and money I saved by not arguing legalese fineprints will easily pay for the costs of the first Client that will sue me. Not even counting time spent arguing legalese

Whoaaa... i never thought about comparing a human being and an animal on the sole scale of carbon footprint. I guess it's fair in a way.. but what a difference on how much they bring to the world.

Examples, data points are useful, advice a lot less in my mind. "This is my situation and what I've done about it, what worked and did not work for me." Then it is up to the listener to learn something from it, possibly trans

I really miss the rental video store nowadays. Better choice than most streaming platforms at a competitive rate. It was working financially because the studios, by law, could not forbid them to rent the DVDs they bought.

Real life example of a Guatemalan OBC unknowingly bringing heroin into the US: he was deemed not responsible quickly, and got expelled right away with no right to come back for 5 years. http://www.loudountimes.com/news/

Counter example. I worked in a company with a lazy CEO, present 3 hours a week. But a great team, paid well. We were happy and accomplished some very good work. Not saying this is the way to go. But to this day, I am surprised it worked out

The bullet point quoted in the article is not saying "iRobot goes under". Any new sale of shares, even a reorganisation of the company would trigger consent that your data is fair game. If iRobot agrees that AMZ buys 0.01% of the

Why would "growing" be a prerequisite to success? Isn't profitable enough, especially if already decently profitable?

One other way: change your password to a temporary one, give it to a trusted friend who changes it. You don't know the password, you can tell the truth to the border agent. Once you're out of their hands, ask for it back and chang

One argument, not made, is that it may help German students too. Having various nationalities at home expose them to other ways of thinking. And it increases their abilities to deal with them culturally later in life/business. I do fin

1. Buy the rights for "Car Talk" re-broadcast. 2. Record new, current ads using Click and Clack's voices. 3. If the voices sound a little too "mechanic", pretend it's a joke.
