Every edit there blows away the original. Perfect example of the power and value of precise, exhaustive editing. I think the turns of rhetorical device are most notable: why would the original not start with "here's to"?! You don't just rip

Large employer insurance plans are often self-funded, meaning that the insurance company charges administration fees but does not truly insure the plan financially. Certainly small employers are worse at negotiating health care plans, but I

It has to be - if there's billions being spent on adwords, even a million businesses spending free vouchers would be only slightly inflationary. Although perhaps this has more of an effect on smaller sectors which were more brick-and-mortar

In a lot of spaces, especially those where offline players are just starting to put a lot of weight into online marketing, those near the top clearly don't have positive ROI - at least not on the specific campaign. The mixture of big compan

In the US, getting a master's in education probably says more negative than positive things about your intelligence - there are a ton of degree farms handing out paper.

facebook has had huge problems, in my opinion, with how they react to people dying for quite some time now - a friend of mine died several years back and facebook often asked me to send him a message because we hadn't interacted in a while.

It seems unlikely that bing will be better over time, since google has more data and will continue amassing more click-through data with which to improve the results.

Except teachers unions negotiate their benefits and labor contracts, and they tend to be tilted towards the interests of those with more tenure, which is not really how private enterprise operates. Also, outsourcing allowed many companies t

Future customers would be acquired via different channels than current customers, and therefore they'd have a different CLV (depending on the channel mix).

Isn't this fairly onerous to administer? At my previous company, a private consulting firm, there are some shareholders who are kept around largely because there is not liquidity available and if you've been around for 25 years, even if muc

I know I'll never buy anything from a business run by Sam Odio, unless he somehow were to redact all this douchery. I suspect I'm not the only one who feels this way. There are too many decent people out there to waste time and money with s

Marketer is not a well-defined class. People who market may not identify as such- many don't even know they market. Marketing is just a word, a neat little box, it contains exactly and only what you want. While you have a lot of bile for ma

Since when have users been entitled to privacy? It's just more obvious now when user data is collected, and things move much faster so it's on a more tangible scale. Small town gossip was used in much the same way to gain competitive edges

Spotify has perhaps the least targeted ads i've ever seen/heard on any media source. We listen to indie rock and classics all day only to hear the latest Jason Derulo clip several times a day as an advertisement. That's clearly not targeted

Want to opt out? Don't visit sites using tracking methods with which you disagree. This is a fairly trivial way of opting out of such tracking, and would help incentivize those sites to change their tracking policies and technologies. If yo

I could definitely see them getting rid of the 13" MBP, but it has been positioned as the model you're pushed to via anchoring, as it seems like a deal (if that makes any sense). It does seem like the MBAs are filling in this role, but I do

in my opinion, SEO moves way too fast to make it worthwhile to write a book like this as a big one-time project. what's most interesting in SEO are the individual questions which come up along the way.

It doesn't show up in searches because for a long time the whole site was noindexed. Think they changed this, but considering the whole site is designed much like an SEO spamfest (tags, ridiculous hierarchy), it didn't make a whole lot of s
