There’s no denying that building is a hell of a lot easier in a place like Houston without zoning than anywhere else though.

I do feel like they usually have rougher cars though. Not always, but on average.

Yeah, that works until they pass you anyway and you get hit by their mirror. Of course it was a BMW.

They have special family boarding. My wife and I just pay for a single seat upgrade, and then hold a second for the late boarder. Would want to be up front anyway.

This is the art of the demo. If you don’t have 1-3 big problems that you’re about to show the customer how you’ll solve, you’re just shouting into the void. If customers won’t tell me what problems they’re trying to solve, I adopt a very mo

Happy people aren’t great consumers. You only buy when you feel like your life is missing something that will get you to happiness. Therefore, Marketers’ job is to create a lack in you. To make you feel “less than” as you are currently. Tha

I agree. Everyone wants to live a certain kind of lifestyle, and kids aren’t worth the sacrifice for many. Without fail, the people I see having kids are all people who grew up with an economic head start, and further distanced themselves w

Don’t discount the fact that he also gives time. Time that eh could literally do anything in the world he wants with, since he has all of that money. In my mind, time is where the real giving happens. Anyone with a lot of money can give a l

Not surprising. Benioff has already created an official group internally to try to address people’s issues and avoid losing employees.

If they hadn’t done what they did, they would be the other company that was open the entire time. Meta Vision, who recently went out of business.

This has been my experience. Low walled cubes allow me to drop my chair and block everything else out of my line of sight, then stand up and have the ability to see everyone around me. It also hides everybody’s cords, which are always beyon

Gamblers who were just handed millions of dollars... seems like a recipe for a rich casino.

I’m honestly most surprised that this isn’t just common sense. Anyone who pays attention for a minute can see it play out all around them.

At least they’re using it to directly sell you stuff though. I find that head and shoulders above selling it to people who want to sell you stuff, but also may want to do a lot of other things. Amazon is not deceptive in their sales tactics

Japanese trains were lovely. Very comfortable. Great views of Mt. Fuji and the coast along that route. Definitely options for snack and drink. Don’t know about a full dining car, but it wouldn’t surprise me.

Benioff is in the process of doing the same. None of these people have any desire to run Ops for a giant corporation. They want to focus on the stuff they like. For Page, it’s the tech. For Benioff, it’s the philanthropy, social responsibil

Ditto. Thankfully, my corporate phone is Verizon, and I get LTE on that. If you plan to stay long term, it’s probably worth switching carriers.

I disagree. There have been times where he looks like he feels great, is on fire, excited about everything, even when he’s overworked beyond measure. He’s obviously tired, but clearly fulfilled and proud of what he’s doing. He’s exhausted i

I find that tossing the coin reveals the answer, as I typically start rooting for one side the second it goes up in the air.

But it’s hot as fuck... I grew up there. Every single person I’m blood related to lives there. I could never move back. If I ever leave SF, it’ll only be to go somewhere equally temperate.

Yep. Postmates pricing got real absurd, real fast. It almost felt like it happened, even if you had premium. DoorDash, I should pay closer attention to. My wife usually orders, and she’s way too price insensitive for my taste at times. I at

Do yourselves a favor and listen to “Get it Right”. 8 minutes of perfection.

100% agree. Taking an interest in something someone else is already super passionate about and sharing it with them has been my surest path to friendship, which is why the idea I like the most is based around the concept of climbing partner

The truth is that many people don’t have either, and the more we reposition ourselves around the country, the bigger the problem gets. If you don’t get along with someone in the office who is willing to bring you into their circle, you’re k

This is like this guy I played Golden Eye with once who had one place on the map between the body armor and the best gun and refused to move from the spot. Said the point is to employ the optimal strategy to win, right? I set the control do

I feel like this is the part the other comment or is either ignoring or not seeing. We’re not talking about non-verbal communication, like the hand signals of a 3rd base coach. Of course it’s forbidden to hold up fingers for the numbers on

Georgia Tech’s OMSCS program has been great so far, outside of the super rigid proctoring policies they have for testing that cost me 2 letter grades in my database class. Some classes are better than others, but it’s extremely valuable to

I had a feeling it was just a matter of time before Boise set a course to become the next Austin. One visit 5-6 years ago for a few days to interview at a tech company, and I thought, “Huh, Boise is pretty damn cool.”

We have to remove incentives for holding / renting property. I think it’s Germany that taxes the shit out of you if the owner doesn’t live in the residence. This would immediately rid the United States of all of these “investment prope

Arguably the best ski resort in the lower 48. The most picturesque mountain range in the lower 48, seen on the cover of Kanye’s new album. Snake river for unlimited rafting and fly fishing in ridiculously beautiful settings. Spitting distan
