Exactly. Although I don't think work in the car would be the same quality - if you use that time to handle emails it could be a big boost to get most emails addressed before you get to the office. I live about 12 miles from my office a

It was a fair request. If you're CEO you try to rally your people. It wasn't a demand. The author had no reason to be stubborn about it. There were obviously other areas to be concerned about as I sided with the author on, but thi

Good points. Also - if you believe that we're screwed unless we take action now - we would need to take serious steps worldwide. Which means laying policies on countries that are still developing, where they have serious issues with cl

I can explain that because it's an important data point that should be driving the positioning for the AGW crowd. I personally think that AGW is overblown, the models and methodologies are suspect and I question human's impact on

It was a fair request to have a key member link to GitLab. Employees can be told what to do. You don't have to comply, but when you get a fair request and you make a big deal of it - you have to be prepared for the consequences. Contra

Wow that's nothing. We have state government workers in California getting 90% of their highest salary as long as they live. And some even double dip.

This and the fact that when state pensions were getting good returns - they setup guarantees which became liabilities of the state. However, when investments went the other way - the guarantees were still in place. So they get to have their

On the flipside - I'd propose in this simulation that there would be inner city civil unrest and the bulk of Texans, most of them armed, would join the force to squash that unrest or hunker down at home and mind their own property. I&#

Good point. Although in this case it's more connected that the brands are subsidizing content and a site which doesn't care about hate speech and childish discussions. And parents and concerned consumers who like certain brands ca

Yes, we'd engage in awful tactics against a home grown insurgency. Of course I can stomach that; any administration would respond in whatever ways necessary to crush the hypothetical Texans. They certainly wouldn't win as you sugg

I know someone with a golf vacation business and a good chunk of their business is via travel agents from Germany. Not sure if it's just bigger over there or if it's more prevalent for group bookings that they cater to for golf. Y

Are you saying Texans would succeed? You didn't argue my notion that they wouldn't, just stated that it wouldn't be pleasant. EDIT: @remarkEon that's ridiculous. We have ~ 1.5M active troops. Drones, aircraft, firepower

If 10k Texans organized to start some sort of rebellion we'd certainly put forth more resources to address that. Nobody needs combat experience in Baghdad or first-hand economic knowledge of Houston to know that Texas would have no cha

Ok so how does Iraq apply to your suggestion that a civil unrest and civil war in our country could easily break out when Texans with guns hit high unemployment? You also cited Houston which is the 4th largest city that has a crime problem

Adtech will be fine but I do think we'll see a bigger shift of dollars into a bucket called content marketing versus traditional ad placement. So think about what Red Bull does with the content they develop and sponsor. YouTube should

That's not exclusive to the US. Every country has citizens that do that. Furthermore - since we have such a well-tuned two party system, there's always about 50% of people that feel at least a little disenfranchised. We've ha

Agreed. We should be investing in our own people and figuring out why our system isn't producing especially in light of the fact that we spend more than most countries on education. I'm guessing it's a combination of things:

What regulations are you referring to that would prevent this? You can just as easily book a hotel and throw a party there and do all sorts of damage. They don't take much of a deposit either (or they hold a card) because there's
