I've mentioned this before, but I'm surprised that more companies aren't looking at opening a satellite office in Reno. 4 hour drive to SF, 1 hour flight, and it's half an hour away from Tahoe.

Does she sleep in a spare hospital room? I feel like the hospital wouldn't allow that due to the fact that the room would potentially need to be allocated to a patient.

I would say that the next logical place is Instagram stories. Instagram is already used as a more permanent & curated version of Snapchat, and Instagram atories is basically Snapchat stories, but within the Facebook walled garden.

Point #3 just kills me. I really dislike how home ownership has become the equivalent of an investment account. It's a shame that the housing market has received such favorable tax treatment.

I don’t think that taxes play as much of a role as the author thinks they do. Sure, the recent tax bill limits deductions, but as long as the taxpayer values the amenities provided by living in a HCOL area more than the cost of said taxes,

I'm curious as to why neither the Cadillac line nor the Michigan/Woodward lines extend up into the Pointes, yet St. Claire Shores has a major hub. Grosse Pointe Park in particular is quite walkable, especially in the older areas t

While I have a Hackintosh, I'm not sure I'd want to get one if it was my primary computer. Granted, I haven't had any problems with mine, but all it takes is an update from Apple to break or brick it. Native Macs don't h

The tolls in Illinois are ridiculous. I was heading up to Madison, WI and decided to take I-90 despite the fact that it had tolls. I figured that the gas saved would make up for the tolls. That turned out to be an expensive mistake. What an

Interesting, we have a Sketch to Invision workflow that works pretty well for devs who aren’t on Macs. The biggest turnoff for me regarding Figma is the fact that you need to have access to the web in order to use it. With Sketch, I can use

Figma’s really gunning at a Slack with this move, as Sketch’s plugin ecosystem is a huge reason as to why it’s successful. (Edit: this doesn’t bring extension support, but is definitely a step towards that goal) For any other designers on H

The demand for Russian natural gas will only plummet if there's a huge shift from natgas heating to electric heat, and that would take hundreds of billions (if not trillions) of Euros to accomplish.

Same goes for UX designers. Very few direct hire positions, and almost everything is a 6 to 12 month "contract to hire" that magically never turns into an actual position. Plus, I'd say that for every job that a company adver
