A lot of good suggestions. I personally do as much physical stuff as possible because as programmer I get no workout. But recently I have picked up a new hobby that I would say is fitness for brain. It is listening to music with mindfulness

I think it is jealousy, not rules or company contracts that make bosses sue their employees. I say that because at one of my previous job, founder actively encouraged side projects and entrepreneurship. But that company still end up shuttin

IANAL but yes anyone can own a company or start LLC, even foreigners outside of the US. However, on H1B you cannot work for such LLC, you will be in violation of your visa status. But I am not sure if non-income generating, administrative t

Home cleaning. I was reluctant to let a stranger clean my home but it is totally worth it. My maid cleans home better than I ever did, and she is faster. I used to use laundry service, that was amazing.

Agreed, this is just part of business for hospitals. We as honest people feel ashamed if we cannot pay bills. But I make an exception medical bills and other unpredictable broken industries (if any). If someone bought a car or house, they k

I don't have advice but my personal experience is that lifting weights is easy but cardio is almost impossible. I don't really fast on purpose but I mostly eat one large meal a day (dinner). I workout in evenings before dinner. I

I am one of those people who never get hungry. I don't fast, but don't eat breakfast, skip lunches once in a while. Usually have a large dinner. I am not skinny but slightly overweight, according to BMI (25.1). But when I purposef

Too many companies have eroded employees trust by lying that something is anonymous when it is not. I personally will never trust any such survey at work.

In my professional experience, every time higher ups made a decision without input from worker bees, the project failed, delayed, or cancelled. I personally love it when higher-ups make a decision without consulting me. Because then I have

I used to camp out at various coffeeshops near my university back in mid-2000s. As poor student, I was not only trying to use free wifi but also save on power by not staying in my apartment a whole lot. I used to rotate between various coff

I know a real estate guy who hires drone pilots to shoot videos of McMansions. Most of those drone guys are hobbyist and business is not scalable though. Could be fun way to checkout different neighborhoods and pay for expensive hobby.

Thanks but it still didn't explain why it is legal. It just said it was standard procedure. Sure there are laws covering overbooking situation but that doesn't mean the actual idea of overbooking has gone through legal scrutiny.

I never knew that they overbooked flights until recently. From my perspective, it appeared obviously wrong and immoral. So never imagined that an ethical company would do this.

You cannot just make up one sided terms and conditions, it would be thrown out in court. When I buy something, I should not need an hour to read a contract. Airlines are able to get away with this cause they haven't been challenged in

It will make it harder for smaller and startups to compete with established players. You can think of it as if phone companies grouping businesses in different buckets and then charging extra for better service. Small businesses will have t

There are cases of people going to jail because they donated money to charities claiming to help orphans. Government argument in those cases was that they should have "known better." Only reason executives are not charged with tre

Amazing, I don't see any outrage from conservatives on funding ISIS by Hobby Lobby. There are some even defending Hobby Lobby because according to them Hobby Lobby saved important artifacts from destruction.

I prefer to buy. But whenever I buy toys, I assume one day I will get bored with them. So I estimate resale value. If resale value is too low, then I prefer to rent. For example, when I bought my DSLR, I looked at various camera rental site
