Sao Paolo is quite a ways away from Brooklyn. It's a rather long flight that's very expensive. It may not be feasible, either the time it takes or the money it takes.

How does a company lose money? They didn't start from nothing--they have money in the bank from equity infusions (e.g.-going public). You lose money if you make less than you spend. That's what happened here. Edit: Also, these num

Firstly, you'll want to look into Visual Studio so that you can build a plugin. Secondarily, you'll also want to do some market research. The Big 4 all have internal tools that they use, anyway, so I'm not sure that's your target market. Yo

This is really nice date detection based on semantics. The one thing I'd add is the ability to use words in lieu of numbers. For example, "in an hour" doesn't work, but "in 1 hour" does. Or, "in two months" doesn't work, but "in 2 months" d

You're still skirting hotel regulations and occupancy taxes. There's a difference between, "My friend's coming to stay for awhile," and "$100/night to stay at Chateau d'Moi!"

zalzane is also forgetting a big word: SharePoint. It's going nowhere , and it locks in companies to the Microsoft stack.

Your own link shows that 5 of the top 10 mid-career median salary schools are Ivy League schools. Only Brown (more arts-focused), Columbia (no clue why this isn't there), and Cornell (only Ivy with public ties, and the largest Ivy) aren't i

I lived in Dallas for several years, and this was my observation, too. In some of the outlying counties around Dallas (e.g.-Hunt), "Coke" is definitely prominent, but inside the urban sprawl that is DFW, "soda" is used first and foremost. I

Why? This is a miscommunication issue, not a CS issue. Determining whether or not something runs "infinitely" is typically just, "Does it run longer than an acceptable amount of time?" It may not actually run infinitely, but it may run p

Oh, get over yourself. If they re-tweeted it immediately, then went to get more info on it, found out that it was false, and then apologized/deleted it, who cares? It came from a particularly reputable source, so simply clicking one "re-twe

Good lord, fired? For re-tweeting an AP tweet? You may want to do independent verfication, but hell, it's the AP. It's not like somebody set up an a AD account and tweeted it as a fake AP. I don't blame anybody for re-tweeting that. What is

As somebody who's built analytics around a few massive-scale consumer goods companies, let me tell you: If you think you understand a company's supply chain as an outsider, you don't know the first thing about supply chains.

For my money, there's no better multidimensional database I've used for operational analytics than SSAS. JasperSoft, Pentaho, Essbase, Cognos, etc all just don't cut it. Essbase if you're doing GL (SSAS doesn't aggregate Parent-Child very w

I've used Domo for mobile stuff, and it's worked very well. I've been very impressed with it, and it makes a great impression. I've really only used it for quick demos and minor things--not for a full project, sadly. So, I can't give you a

I think you're a tad off the mark as far as Microsoft BI goes. I've seen some very large firms use it as their entire BI stack. And I've had a lot of work in it. Then again, you really only want to do this if you already have SharePoint,

My point was that the context of this article is important. SQL Server has its place, and it does what its meant to fairly well. I really just despise these giant sweeping statements without context, so I wanted to add context. I also imagi

To answer your question, no, a currency is not fundamentally a perfectly liquid asset. "Currency" is a really, really big word, but at its heart, currency is any medium of exchange. There are myriad microcurrencies that are out on the marke

At the risk you thinking less of me, I think you've missed the point entirely about "counting countries." I mean, clearly this guy did it for the achievement (and hell, that's tough to do--kudos to him), but I think saying how many countrie

I would be cautious on your labeling them as incompetent--perhaps they are very competent at protecting their positions, you just have a different agenda. Of course, I don't know your exact situation. But, people act according to their alig

You don't understand how trademarks work. Zed automatically has a trademark on it. The question is whether or not he goes through the trouble of enforcing it. If he doesn't, he gives up the mark. Federally registering a trademark is reall

I'm very curious--is there a way for me to play this game? I'd love to get the rules from you and try it out. I loved the mechanics in Magic when I was younger, and I'd love to not have to buy all the cards and worry about building a deck,
