article: normal was thought to be 300wpm, meta analysis of new study says it's 238wpm, also speed varies between languages. Never got tested for reading speed in school like the article says some schools do. That's good for me as

For your point on TD Ameritrade, they're offering commission rebate first 5 days. Don't believe they offered that for Lyft. They're saying it's because they did not participate in Ubers IPO.

Becoming profitable at the cost of growth. I think the market would punish that. The story of growth company is what drives high multiples to sales/profit. If that changes to a mature company analysts will start thinking about measurin

They did this when I first moved to the valley in 2013. Found them sponsoring hackathons and giving away GCP at 10k-50k free first year for just participating, prizes for winning hackathon was, I believe, actual cash plus 50k+ more GCP. But

They don't check if you actually worked for the place reviewed. You can leave a review for any company to gain access. Sorry GameStop, for my neutral review even though I never worked there.

This can go horribly wrong quickly. How do you deal with the public going after the wrong people? Does the poster take responsibility for all harm done? This is what Reddit tried to do with the Boston bombing. How do you handle deep fakes?

Nope. The mental health assistant job knocked it out of me. Nothing like being in an environment where you have to be on guard for your safety to really want an office job (friends had teeth knocked out, another head-butted ended with concu

To know what they're getting into. It's mostly a thankless job. One of the OP's video talks about how most therapist just wants the easy clients and refer all their hard ones to the YouTuber. So it will vary greatly depending

Happy to see you clarified your take on point one. While summaries are helpful, it's playing the telephone game on interpretation. It's better to view the source material whenever possible.

Did she ever get pulled over by the cops? Asked if there were any weapons in the car lol. Or do they get diplomatic plates?

the point isn't that you understand there are topics that are essential, it's to have someone to identify what is essential. we all have blindspots, much more when we're just starting something new.

Yes. It’s much earlier. Anything pre ipo, they’re going to be the first 1% of shareholders if the company does well. And many times you can’t even buy into those rounds without the right connections. Early is subjective vs if he said he was

I don't discount people that got it in secondary markets. It's not like they're only buying a few shares. I can't find outside sources. The most legit one is from WSJ[0], 200k investment in 2009. Hopefully they verified

The money gets taxed, but money goes elsewhere and the problem never fixed or it’s almost always over budget. But yes. It’s suppose to work the way you described. Abuse and incompetence gets in the way.

Yearly makes much more sense. At the same time, nowhere near enough to make up for the pay cut. I’m non tech, and my peer who was being recruited for US Digital Service would had to take about a 50k pay cut to sub 100k level.
