Why would any good engineer join you as an employee if you literally have nothing besides a "brainstorm?" Do you have money to pay salary? Sounds like you're looking for a co-founder, not an employee.

You can't just expect to use this conversion and always be able to make it work. Company you worked for might have proprietary tech, patents/IP, massive clients you'll never be able to get, etc and thus can pay you more. If I

50 investors get together and invest $1 million to open a store and stock it with inventory. They hire one store clerk and one manager. They elect a board of directors. The board in this case should have a fiduciary responsibility to the tw

It is completely ridiculous that the MTA does its own capital projects. They have lost that privilege. Everyone else goes out to tender and global firms with expertise bid on them. This is how tunnels and rail around the world are being bu

It seems like the most visionary idea in America these days is "just buy your customers by giving away a lot of money." Chase, Uber, Amazon all seem to enjoy it as well as many wannabe startups.

Ugh, I'm American and can't stand how Americans butcher the English language. I'm now working overseas for an American company and it's even more obvious and painful.

I'm in Australia now and have been very surprised to find it common and expected to give 2-4 months notice. The flip side of that is employers are mandated by law to pay severance and various leave accrued if they fire you.

NYC doesn't have a bad climate. Every season is enjoyable except for early Spring when you are just sick of jackets and barren trees. Summer can be gross in the middle of Manhattan due to the density and trash smells, but Brooklyn was
