This is something I think will be a cultural shift over time. There is something less authentic about it, but I think the "sender" still gets credit for the message. In some ways, they get more credit since the reply should be mor

Sprinting is THE sport of Jamaica. Distance running is THE sport of East Africa. As someone who trains somewhat competitively for marathons in a group, I can tell you that having people of similar ability to train with has a huge impact. As

I guess I am envisioning frequent switching. If I had to turn a knob to Cmd+Tab between apps it would be terrible.

Has anyone used the Kanex Multi-sync keyboard [1]? Feature-wise it looks much better, just not sure about the reliability. Turning a knob to switch devices seems terrible. [1] http://www.amazon.com/Kanex-Multi-Sync-Bluetooth

I didn't see your reply when I wrote my comment above. You are right that you are not robots. Currently irregular shift workers are cheaper than robots, but that will not be true forever and the more expensive we make workers, the chea

The option isn't between a job with irregular hours and a job with regular hours. The option is between a job with irregular hours and no job. With all of the talk about raising the minimum wage drastically (small increments are fine),

As someone who actually creates irregular schedules, that has absolutely nothing to do with it :) It is about making money. Plain and simple. Occum's razor at it's finest.

What is your target market? I own several retail stores that usually have 2-6 employees on the clock at any given time and don't see any meaningful benefit at our level. I could see how a place with 20 employees on the clock at one tim

Except that there are plenty of people who are willing to work for these terms. I own several retail stores. Labor is by far the largest manageable cost and whether or not we make any profit is often a direct result of managing our labor co

Yeah, this is immensely better via SMS. So much so that I was reading the comments to see if you were going to do it, otherwise I was going to ;)

Could someone create a gmail plugin to filter my outgoing emails through this. Maybe it would help to make my emails clearer and more persuasive.

To me, "utilize" means to use properly. It has a positive connotation that "use" does not. edit: dictionary.com seems to agree. "to put to use; turn to profitable account"

If his theory is correct, this post will generate next to nothing. However, I think he misses one major point... The first article talked about the product offering throughout, this article doesn't even mention their company/produ

Quickbooks seems to be moving away from being about managing financial books and more about offering services that integrate with a company's books (payroll, invoicing, etc). I run a business without Accounts Receivable and just need a

I have alerts set up to notify me when I have goofed off too much for one day. That feature alone is worth the premium fee for RescueTime.

Yes, Evernote Premium was the very first thing to come to mind. I also use RescueTime and OmniFocus. There are plenty of paid apps on my phone / tablet / computer, but those are ones that I would struggle to replace. The paid app

Employers aren't supposed to consider age when making hiring decisions, but that is a good question. The program is pretty new, so I am not sure there is much data yet.

There is a high school in Nashville (Middle College High School) that is housed at one of the community colleges and is focused on getting kids to graduate high school with as many college credits as possible. Many graduate with an associat

One of the larger potential benefits is that kids planning on earning a bachelors degree from a TN university can now drastically reduce their overall cost of education by spending the first two years in a community college for free.

This is an indication that you are too focused on the convenience of the publisher. The convenience of the reader is more important to most of us wanting to get a message out.

Your strategy? Up and to the left. aka keep all the empty spaces next to the lowest number tiles. The way I beat the AI was to try to give them isolated 2s on the opposite sides of the board and then flood the board with 4s. This prevented

As in, it is ironic b/c Google is limiting our ability to deep search conversations while facilitating the NSA's deep searching of our communications. But, simply stating "NSA?" is too subtle for the down vote happy set.
