Perhaps outside of the city, but at least in a place like NYC, there isn't room for a dumpster to be sitting around continuously. And the residents wouldn't like it either.

That's what I was thinking. I'm assuming they go above and beyond what the city may offer. if you are a company like whole foods - you probably don't want trash sitting around until a city assigned garbage is ready to pick

If this is true if uber, that it has no path to profitability, isn't it also true of ubers competitors? Their price points are fairly similar and they all, at some point, offer incentives to ensure you keep using their service.

The affordable care act has enrolled millions on to some kind of health insurance plan. Even if you are stuck with a high deductible plan, oftentimes that annual check up (preventive care) is fully covered without requiring a deductible pa

I followed homehero and some of its competitors movements for a bit. Home care is not an easy business, and there are many local vendors in any given community. There's always this argument as to whether going "full stack" (

I don't personally have a problem with people paying extra to receive what they perceive to better care. But I think if you look at outcomes, I doubt you will find that they have received better care by paying the extra 40k or whateve

Interesting. I work in Montclair a couple of days a week. It probably is the type of town that could support this, but it's still kind of peculiar. The Montclair Times HQ was shut down - it's now a dialysis center. There is a blo

A Tesla bought today does have the hardware to implement what they call full self driving, once the software is ready and state regulations, if any, are in place. That being said, i would imagine said hardware would evolve over time with ne

Interesting but they are not the only ones doing this. United and aetna are collecting data as well, and also employ nurses that follow patients into their homes or other settings. The data operation is what is emphasized in this article,

As of this writing, Trump has drawn fewer votes than McCain in 2008 and substantially less than Romney in 2012. He even has less than Hillary. So I'm not sure I agree with this analysis about rural voters - at least not with respect to

"... The business rate will be lowered from 35% to 15%, and the trillions of dollars of American corporate money overseas can now be brought back at a 10% rate." 15% seems like a lofty goal, even 25% would be drastic. Unless a cor

That's good to know. Microsoft previously had a product called Microsoft Lync, which was HIPAA compliant (and was used as the chat protocol in my hospital system). It later became Skype for Business - although we still use it as Lync.

It really depends on how one primarily listens to music on their phone. There are a LOT of people who listen to music on their phone while working out. Having a cable dangling, disconnecting or having the phone fall while you are working o

It occurred around 4 in the morning, in an area with several recent robberies. He was also pretty banged up apparently, implying a struggle. If you were intending to assassinate someone, you probably wouldn't fight with them first.
