Its a shame Steve Jobs got married and had 4 kids. Think about how much more time he would have had to create new gadgets. So now tell me about your love life?

It does seem like the ultimate downer: The universe itself will die a horrible, awful death and there is nothing you can do. Go curl up in a ball and die :-( I want my BLUE PILL!

I doubt it --- but then again that great water rate is multiplied by 0 acre/feet; which is how many acre-feet the farmers are getting from the state. There is no water to hand out at such cheap rates ( or any rates ). This is the great

Water Train, INC. is not trying to solve the drought. They are trying to make money. If farmers or cities pay more dollars for the water than it costs Water Train, INC to ship the water in - then Water Train, Inc is happy. There are peo

The 401k is a feature not a bug. Amazon managers abusing the workers in the warehouse is a feature not a bug. Women not being promoted within Amazon is a feature not a bug. For Jeff Bezos to claim he didn't know about this is a

I agree, except AirBnB means you are expected to operate a mini-hotel (without the protections of a hotel). Clean room, fresh towels, etc.... AirBNB = you are renting. Notice you are operating without the protections of a landlord (i.e. lan

Definitely a startup - you will get lots of exposure to skillsets outside of your core training. i.e. as a developer, you will be able to talk to sales people, or customer support people. You will learn to talk and interact with people who
