I've never worked anywhere that would let you purchase before vesting. You accept a new position that came with 20,000 options vesting over 4 years with a one year cliff. At the end of one year, 25% of your shares (5,000) are now vest

"Let's say you're granted about a year's salary in shares..." Please use correct terminology. You're given options to purchase shares, or you're given shares outright. The former is what most people

"A phone number is nothing you can just keep." In the US, you certainly can keep a phone number. You can take it from one telecom service provider to another. But you do indeed have to keep paying your bill to maintain this abilit

Nit: it's not a question. "How does the brain perceive rhythm?" would be a question. "How the brain perceives rhythm" is a promise to explain it to us. However, you are correct: there is no satisfactory explanation

The article has both the hard fact "410 mAh" as well a a more colloquial "a good days worth!" Sure, the author doesn't confirm this nor expand on it, but I'd say his comment is sufficient.

I hold doors for all kinds of people as common courtesy. If I get yelled at for it, I'll just assume the source of the audible insanity is having a bad day. Or is an asshole. I'll keep holding doors for all kinds of people.

"...hundreds of shows later..." That's ... lots of shows. If that's your lifestyle, you certainly would become accustomed to the fees. Admittedly, my social circle is not really urban, so I'm not aware of anyone who

"Mission Control forces me to walk through each space" Try swiping up instead. That'll give you a list of spaces to choose from. Certainly not as direct as your non-OS X WM but faster than stepping through each one.

"How could they?" Sounds like a Responsible Disclosure kind of thing to me. However, they didn't just ask for the research, they requested additional work in the form of a presentation. That's labor for which there shoul

"Balanced diet" is the terminology that's honestly hard to define. Until we have that definition, "a variety of types of food" seems better to me. Here, let me offer a correction: "Eat a variety of foods, avoid

Further with the percentages: "200% more" is not "2x" but many seem to write like that. "200% more" would be twice as much (200%) MORE than already existing (100%) for a final value of three times (300%) the or

This situation sounds terrible. Were you writing software for your employer? Why would you have told them you were volunteering non-coding assistance to a film production? Did they honestly think they had the right to require you show them
