For my group of friends, I was the person who moved away after college. The rest are still together, and some of them are still roommates. I keep in touch occasionally. A few of my friends I try to call (no one ever seems to call me). Mostl

While I haven't any book recommendations, I think one of the key things for delegation is to understand that you don't have to do everything. If you believe that you have to do everything because otherwise the work won't get

At home I've got a Dell SP2208WFP. Quite a good monitor. I'm torn between wanting more pixels (it's 1650x1080) and waiting for it to hold out for 4K to come down in price :) At work I've got a 24" 1920x1200 HP S-IPS

Now you can take AP courses, or "Advanced Placement". Through my high school each test was about $80, you're graded on a scale of 1-5 which is on a percentage basis (X% of people get a 5, etc). Schools can determine what sort

My current job apparently had a probation period. My manager didn't tell me about it until he's like "It's been 90 days, you've passed!" I thought because I was in a right to work state it really didn't ma

My uncle works for a hospital system that's doing the same "buy up everything" plan. He says it's because once they own all of the medical providers in the county, then they will be able to dictate the price to the insur

The other "exit strategy" is when to cut your losses and quit. At that point, what do you do? What criteria would you use to figure that out?

I think ecommercefuel has some information on this. The owner of the blog is around on HN. It mostly focuses on drop shipping, though some of the information may be applicable.

I can somewhat think of this for people with a lot of real estate. You don't necessarily want your bills and stuff sent to the rental house, and if you have a lot of properties it might be better to aggregate rather than to send them a

I'm not a huge fan of Sharepoint, but I'm pretty sure you can do some basic at least view of Excel files in Sharepoint. Alternatively, you can share the documents out with a read/write lock. I'm not aware of any other pr

Only if you BYOD. If you get the IT computers (large bludgeoning devices with power bricks to match), then they're of course billed to your cost center and refreshed periodically. At refresh time you get your choice of like 3-4 models,

Well, for one your banner is kind of strange. I don't understand what Secret Escape has to do with Prospect, which without knowing the name of your product is suddenly capitalized in the sentence. Your billing table is funny, it looks

Yes. The company (hint: the brand is on your computer) has 2 different BYOD strategies. The first is BYOM - Bring Your Own Mac. You pay for your own Mac, and they'll give you the corporate Windows image on your choice of a VM or on th

Interesting blog article. I've always found it strange that when school is out, traffic is like 30-50% better. This effect is the best I can think of, because I wouldn't think there's a lot of people directly impacted by the

This doesn't break self-charging. You could use the same battery pack for a couple of months and then do the battery swap when you're doing a long distance drive.

I had that once, but it was a compute cluster. They used scientific terms for all the other servers. All the better if it matched up with the service, like diffusion and effusion for the firewall failover pair.

I think this is because in a large company, the career paths could be endless assuming you have the skills needed to move into the new position, and in a small company they're limited by the size of the company. It's something you

From my experience: Don't include your community college, unless that's where your degree is from. Even then, if you got an AS at a community college and then got a BS, just drop the AS. Include your GPA if it's better than 3
