My favorite is when I buy something from Prime and it says two day delivery once it ships in two weeks.

After the novelty wore off, Alexa was pretty useless in our home. It eventually turned into a voice command to set a timer while cooking and asking it to play Spotify. But after ma…

This is all solid advice but seems to be unrelated to gaining an unfair advantage. I interpret "unfair advantage" to be more about employability and how valuable you are in the fie…

The CEO class is a mixed group of people, some of which are incredibly smart. But your point is well taken and worth considering. They are "just people" too. On a side note, I can'…

I think this is what happens when game developers make websites. They don't realize that people want a link that they can share.

Amazing leap you made there. But by all means, let's let people run rampant and not have any boundaries and then shrug when violence happens against minorities.

Meta's has a corporate value for "Focus on long-term impact" which is trying to counter short-term gains that don't produce over time. They also talk about how you can make a "big …

I have the same overall reaction. But suspect that your analogy with the calculator to distract some people reading this. Difference being that one is user input error and the othe…

Are these sales numbers or how much they make after everyone else gets their cut? Is that what they mean by "taxes"? Steam takes 30%. The publisher can easily take 50%, but they ma…

Great advice. I have tried this often, while it is really useful, sometimes it isn't enough. What I found more useful a good chunk of the time (on Facebook, Twitter, Reddit..) is t…
