Let's say you have $30k in options and you're an H1b. Sometime in the first 4 yrs of work you're fired and you have to go out of US. How likely it is that you will exercise your, especially since you're in a serious lif

Today, more and more, cars are slowed down and delayed in traffic due to their owner's inattention to traffic and to focus on their phones. It is as these drivers are passed out drunk and relying on all other drivers to take care of tr

The case referenced in the story is about an old LG tv set that had the Android OS for its "smarts". The question is what is the app that the relative did download and from which app store? Also, this might explain why LG chose t

For a 6' tall person, the current seating is actually very inconvenient on 8h+ flights. No hyperbole at all! So maybe the solution is to all genetically convert our offspring to shorter persons :)

Wait for this to be use on Sunday's presidential debate. The timing is also interesting: end of weekly news cycle, Friday afternoon. Hence, not much time to digest but enough to use for sound bites.
