Sure. But there's little real research an non-native language speaker can accomplish. And even if you speak the language, if you're not from there, well you're never going to get the inside track. And this is precisely the reason why Al Jaz

The problem with being hyper-local is that it requires hyper-local sales and marketing. This is extremely time-consuming and expensive with small returns: a hyper-local deals campaign is by definition a small one. Very, very hard to pull of

It's a great post. But I'm posting here to gripe: why oh why do so many blogs never have a direct link to their business front page? It's always to the blog front page. You see a blog article posted, interesting read, the next thing you wan

I agree with him on 3 of his 4 points. I want third-party cookies disabled by default, I want forms never to remember anything and I don't want passwords cached. But I DO want my history remembered. In fact I want every page I ever visit au

Reminds me of my time at Imperial College London when I discovered that they had a FUSION REACTOR in the basement of the physics department- a Z-Pinch. I can't remember the details exactly but basically three gigantic lasers which zapped a

Indeed. A good yarn and an enviable experience, but not prescient of anything, or even relevant to the incident(s) in Japan. tl:dr: nuclear reactors emit radiation.

Dude. This is nothing. Barclays charged me £22 for going £10 into my "reserve" overdraft for just 24 hours. Which is some completely absurd annual rate, 10^184 % if my quick calc is correct (220% daily rate compounded for 365 days).

Well that's sort of my point. You're pretty fortunate if you've got that kind of job no? The problem is everything is relative. The banker who takes home a million probably thinks he's underpaid when he compares himself to a hedge bond boss

$100k puts you in the top 15%. Maybe that doesn't fit your definition of successful, but I'd argue that having a good, stable, professional job was not only successful, but being, in the majority of cases, off the back of a decent education

Oh yeah? And who will write the shell scripts? And I can't imagine what a shell script which could properly model the convexity of a basket of mortgages would look like. Or for that matter I'd like to see a shell script execute an IPO, or a

Who said anything about cat pictures? And why are they relevant? But what is pretty fucking relevant to tech and business in general is how the US's attitude to foreigners/visitors will impact investment and trade.

Can't upvote enough. People have no problem that they can buy a kettle for £5 that was made in China, but take issue withe the fact that manufacturing jobs are going to... China.

One of the joys of travel is the disconnect. Frankly, the more connected we become, the less time we have for ourselves. I hate it that now I can go to just about the most remote place on earth and no longer have a good reason not be answer
