I seriously doubt that. Most times I see that it refers to using your phone as a phone so as not to disturb other people. I would guess it doesn't prohibit people from reading or web surfing.

I don't see a problem here. I don't recommend we give our children a smartphone and allow them unlimited usage, but if a bunch of adults are standing around looking at their phone while waiting on take-out, who cares? Did everyone

Great idea. As a native Memphian, I am a little disappointed they offer Rendezvous, one of the worst BBQ joints in Memphis. Though it is the most popular tourist trap so there is a reason why it is offered.

Well said. Basically the theme of Nate Silver's book as well. Don't stick to your forecast in the face of new information that might contradict your forecast.

Great article, I appreciate you sharing. I don't want to sound presumptious, but sometimes in articles like these where we are looking back at our original thoughts on something, they can be clouded by our current beliefs. I really am

My two regrets from college are not taking a programming class nor spending any additional time in statistics. Now I am trying to teach both to myself. As a 33 year old with a young child, doing everything I want to do now is becoming harde

Just continues to speak to the benefit of a probationary period or some other tests that are actually applicable to the job before hiring. Thanks for sharing.

Really good idea. As a 33 year old, I still feel some of the anxiety when I remember being wrong in college or high school. Hopefully, more schools can adopt this idea.

I don't think this is limited to girls. I have read in some parenting books about the number of boys being diagnosed with ADHD might be related to this feeling, that they try something and can't get it, then just get frustrated an

Hyper inflation is hard without an external event (war, loss of all foreign trading partners, etc.). Just an increase in the money supply has very little to do with hyper inflation.

I believe most large employers in the US do offer it, but much like the 401k it is opt-in, not opt-out, so I assume most people don't have it or if there employer offers it as opt-out, they may not be aware of it. 60% of your income, e

I had not heard of this, thank you. I imagine there will be a number of used one's on ebay after people pull the passcode out of the box, which is what I am thinking about doing.

You have 14 days to decide once your number is called. Put the deposit on a new credit card with multiple bonus points in the first month. Get yourself a vacation for lending someone $5,000 when interest rates are so low and decide later.

Shareholders could question firing employees as it may negatively impact shareholder value a few years from now. I don't think one is more justifiable than the other.

First, congrats on getting out there. I was not aware of something like this, and truthfully had never thought of it as an option. As a father of a 17month old, my wife and I have talked a little about a true camera (non-iphone) to take bet

A great story, very proud of what you have accomplished and you should be too. I would just mention that your parents sound like they are incredibly supportive and were encouraging of your dreams. Not everyone has that.
