   Could you imagine being the manager assigned to watch such employees? That's a special hell. I once worked at a newspaper, when "online" was new and side project of the marketing department so that they could sell more ads. U

   You don't. You buy a $200 beater laptop and use that for travel. Load only what is necessary to remote back into your network. Don't carry any other data on it. If it gets stolen or searched, no loss. Just buy the cheapest thing y

    I use a Surface 3 and like it. I didn't upgrade to the 4 because they didn't offer an LTE model. I will upgrade if the 5 has an LTE version. For me, having data access anywhere is the key to getting the most function out of the

    I hope not. I prefer my car service provider to be ruthless, impersonal, and corporate, not lovey-dovey like the "fist bump and ride in the front seat" people at Lyft. …and there's no way I want to go back to using DC Taxis.
