I really hate this rule. The Snapchat camera used to fire with the volume controls and now it is much harder to take a selfie. To add insult to injury, Apple’s own native camera app does this same thing! You can’t even argue that it’s a con

I have something like this for a rental property, but I designed it like an aircraft QRH (Quick Reference Handbook). It’s organized by system, like in the article (Electrical, Plumbing, Telecom, etc.), but the subtopics are problems: “Inter

That advice was also from a time when you would print out your resume on high quality paper and pull it out of your briefcase to give to the hiring manager. Of course they don’t want some stapled-together thing. These days, resumes are digi
