I have a 6s that's still on 10. Reading this and other comments make me think that maybe 12 won't be too bad. There's a few apps out there that I use that don't work with 10 anymore and so this may be the time for me to

I have been developing software for 12 years. I can't show you anything that I've worked on because it has all been internal tools. I can talk about what I've built, but I can't show it to you or show you any code.

Unfortunately it's not as easy as that. The IRS has guidelines on who is considered an employee. If you set their hours, provide equipment for them to use and there's a few other things I forget, they are a de-facto employee regar

While possible, having first hand experience working for the MTA (not NYCT though) led me to believe that it was most likely not the case.

I fly US-South East Asia a couple times a year. Economy fares are around $1k(or $500-800 the last few months). Business class fares can be had for about $4-5k. Premium economy for around $1,500-2,000. My problem with premium economy is that

Not anymore, at least the NYC stores don't. They take your phone in and give it back to you in a couple of hours(depending on how busy they are). That's how they did it when I had mine replaced last week. The 5th Ave store didn&#x

Small to mid-size funds may not be able to get away with charging 2-20 but larger, more established funds still can regardless of size. Tudor was charging 4-23 on one of its funds. Not sure if that's still the case since they were down

Yup, I use them a lot of in Excel. Outside of Excel, End to go to the end of the line and Home to go to the beginning. Ctrl+Home, Ctrl+End to go to the beginning/end of a file.

I really wanted to like the SB but I didn't like that it doesn't have a full keyboard with End, Home, PgUp, PgDown. It's not that there isn't space to include them. I ended up returning it. For something that I paid $3k

I don't think HBS would be the best dataset to use though: 1. The CTO position probably didn't exist until the 90s so you'd need to restrict your dataset to something more recent 2. HBS doesn't generally attract tech peo
