> Amazon should have won in very few of the markets it entered. Instead, its competitors just decided to lie down and die, with a couple of yelps on their way to their death. Once AWS started really making money, there's not many co

Plenty of companies are building boring new PHP sites on Magento and making money without being SPAs. At least here in the Midwest, I've noticed quite a few non-tech companies moving their SPA sites away from being SPAs because it was

If you build it yourself you could easily continue those contracts with way less work put in. There's many, many jobs out there that exist only because people don't think they can read the documentation and figure out how to run t

It wouldn't stop all the layoffs but that isn't the goal. The goal would be to give employees a vote when decisions are made on how to deal with the economic fallout instead of being the passive victims of whatever decision is arr

Anecdotally, the owner of one of the nearby pizza places mentioned that both profits and margins are up for her. Of course pizza places historically have a large amount of delivery already. I imagine the current crisis has driven more custo

My understanding of it is that we basically outsourced our inflation from the 2008 QE rounds to other countries. This seems to be a feature of being the reserve currency of the world. Presumably that would be the same thing that prevents hy

Is the retainer for a specific amount of time? I know my knowledge of systems I no longer work on fades pretty quickly once I no longer am actively working on it.

I wonder if the question is really, do the giant corporations that want to compete globally have as much ability to get laws passed in Germany as they do here in the US? If they do, you can bet that those protections and working conditions

This looks amazing. Any thoughts on what it would take to turn it into a minimally usable PWA so that I could carry things I consider important with me even in offline mode?

Which is a shame. I really enjoyed my Nokia 920. It was a significantly better user experience than any Android phone I've owned. Just a shame that nobody wanted to develop apps for it.

The "office empires" make perfect sense at the size of FAANGs. When you need to hire that many people every year, many of them who have never worked in "the real world" before, how do you do the best to ensure they all h

It's not between sticking around or quitting. They could have gone out and found a new job. One that presumably pays more than unemployment and quite possibly given the current stage of the economic cycle, more than their current job.

Legally it's easy to walk away. Just stop showing. You'll probably get a few phone calls wanting to know where you are before they terminate you as an employee in a few days. Realistically, in the US so much of your financial heal

Unfortunately there's always new recruiters that are willing to press this point either because they believe it or they just want the commission and will say what it takes to place a candidate. This is not something that will be fixed

Looks like a great service. Sadly none of your current markets are near me and the closest city I could vote for is an eight hour drive away. I'll check back periodically and see if you've expanded to anywhere within driving range

In this specific example it doesn't matter if it's Kmart or a one off mom and pop store. You can look at NYC to see how empty store fronts are given preference over renting to new non-giant brands. Landlords have figured out it&#x
