Wouldn't be surprised. I think a lot of the original data also comes from whitepages.

Lots of googling your own name and email address. Finding all the hits and searching for "remove" or "opt out" links (search "sitename+opt out" etc). Repeating the process for close associates, phone number, ad

It comes from a lot of places. Voter records is actually a big source, but also I believe some of the various breaches have made it in. And all of those sites continuously crawl each other and trade databases as well. I had my identity stol

While trying to buy workout equipment off craig's list I was solicited twice to join "speakeasy" gyms. They had ads for a bunch of gear and when I inquired they sent me a detailed response on working out in their private gym.

I'm in the same boat and have decided to wait. It's really impossible to know though. Luckily I'm ok with staying in my rental for the time being.

I think the reality will set in soon on this once the CARES bonus UI is removed (and if it is not replaced) and the PPP loans run out. Right now everyone I know in real estate is still convinced it was just a minor blip and love to cite che

In my city (Denver) where a lot of the Airbnb usage is event based (sports, conventions, concerts) I've noticed a rash of fully furnished rentals come on the market at just under market rates. These are clearly all former AirBnbs. Peop

It was shocking how fast some corporate players went "lean". Almost as if they were waiting for a viable excuse to do so without blowback rather than out of actual necessity. They know they have the upper hand. People are deathly

Totally, I hire myself and know how intensive it is to screen design and how difficult it is to train a non design to discern good/bad candidates (it's difficult even for some designers).

This is true. Sent my portfolio (I'm a designer) to a few well known ones and the longest view I got (of the 3 that even opened) was 27 seconds according to hotjar.

I grew up in Schenectady (after the glory days of GE) and it's crazy how much GE destroyed the town. Still has yet to really recover. Oh, and now they put a casino in.

Their recommendation algorithm? really? I find it to be the worst I've encountered. It constantly just keeps shoveling the same few songs I've liked once over and over.

Far, far less. Search a company like "Airbnb", view employees, filter the results by geo, job title, whatever, and parse through the pages. Do this a few times with different companies and you get blocked. I don't do this of

#2 does not seem to be true in some cities. There are a lot of new "pod" apartment buildings with shared kitchen facilities. There's one right across the street from me in Denver.
