One key difference is licensing. As a physician you have to take the USMLE Step 1,2,3 and then potentially other board certifications. We engineers don't have any of that.

Yep, I agree about limited industry but it does work in that respect. I see it used a lot for content creators as a way to organize and tier out their fans as well.

IMO its a good competitor to slack. They probably make money from businesses too. They have lots of options for permissions/roles and all kinds of API access to write bots for.

Sports are a business and fall under entertainment anyway in my opinion. Owners make a lot of money and you won't see them footing the bill for new stadiums/fields generally too. T…

This is exactly what TRX (Tronix) cryptocurrency is trying to achieve. They want content creators on their blockchain to distribute content and want to reward them with coin as pay…

Its pretty easy to use points to book rooms for other people, I was able to gift 4 reservations a few weeks back for an event. All I had to do was write "Gift Reservation for xyz p…

For ANA its pretty sweet. 85k round trip on business to Asia. But, in general I agree I think they are on the down fall and they need to come up with some new things to remain comp…

When I signed up to those two cards, it was $3k spend in 3 months for each card. I also signed up at different times. For my Amex platinum I actually put my security deposit on it …

I know they aren't normally that much, but at the time they were like 8800 per person. I had a specific airline in mind when I flew because I wanted the full experience. ANA curren…

Yes thats true, I conceded that point in another reply to Sleeep. I did look up tickets just now and they are about $6500/person on ANA. I specifically looked up ANA because I want…

I do not believe its disingenuous to say that they are $18k in value. That's how much the tickets cost at the time. Could I afford the tickets if I paid cash? No, but isn't that th…

When I got it was $450, they recently raised the prices. Even if you run the calculations, its still worth it. $550 a year fee $200 airline credit $200 Uber credit $20 Global Entry…

I don't know if your assessment of that is accurate. I opened 2 cards last year, the AMEX Platinum and Chase Sapphire Reserve deal. I got 100k points for each card. I had some exis…

This is commonly called "keto flu" and its due to a loss of electrolytes. http://ketosizeme.com/keto-flu-101-everything-need-know/

I did it in reverse. I used points for my flights and hotels and booked those first. I had a rough itinerary planned. Going to Tokyo -> Osaka -> Hakone -> Tokyo. Once I booked all …

I like to use VSCode to open C# or web.config files, basically any .net related file since its pretty quick and you get all the highlighting.

I guess, sorry if I am coming across as touchy. I'm a diabetic and there is a ton of misinformation out there about it!

Using the term "inability to process carbs and sugar" is misleading and totally not the same thing as insulin resistance. Its generally assumed that processing carbs is the act of …

Hes pointing out that what you said was factually incorrect. Diabetics don't lose the ability to process carbs at all. Carbs are broken down along with proteins and fats. What Type…

Possible, I live in the midwest and there are quite a few obese people in my area. Cereal wise, I would say 2 servings is pretty common, most people think its 1 bowl anyway. If you…

I think close to 1000 is pretty common for breakfast. I used to eat Dunkin Donuts a lot and I would see people order a Bagel with Bacon, Egg and Cheese on it. That is 470 calories.…

XPS 13 Developer Edition has been out for a bit and it comes with Ubuntu http://www.dell.com/us/business/p/xps-13-linux/pd

Actually my current and prior are both submit resume and interview path. I don't know anyone where I live so I had to go a quantity approach and just blanket apply to all dev jobs …

Overnight Oats is a great recipe for breakfast and is prepared in 5 minutes. It won't hit the $2.15 mark and it's roughly ~400 calories, ~40g healthy carb, ~40g protein, and ~10g f…

Cook with your wife. Make it a date night and stay in, cooking together, or with family too. I did this with my gf last week and we had a blast while we made pasta from scratch. Bu…
