To use the old saying, when all you have is a hammer, everthing begins to look like a nail. To most office workers, Excel is their hammer. You can stretch it to extreme limits by using things like pivot tables, and complicated lookup func

It's a neat app, but for me, I probably prefer copy paste as a note, then going through the hassle of signing up. What benefit am I missing? Culturally, I think that sites like pinterest tend to get people to develop a hoarding habit. Yo

How is this true online? On the internet, monopolies are natural for social networking, online auctions, classified ads, and search. Each of these require the user to go to the site with the most ads, friends, bidders or sellers, or result

Well, what about having several house servants? Rich Americans don't have these things.

What I don't get is that the law allows hiring foreign workers only if a qualified American worker could not be found, but I have never seen any evidence of this. Has anyone heard of a company being forced to prove this, or experienced an

First off you have supply and demand, which is enough to say that new workers would depress wages. You can go deeper into the micro-economics view point and look at the utility curves of the American Engineer vs. an Immigrant Engineer, and

50 inch high? Do you mean wide? Due to our physiology of two horizontal eyes, we're more suited for a wide screen than one that high. I'm not convinced your field of view could even s make use of an entire 50 inch high screen at that dist
