    Sometimes I wish I knew some in-depth physics, take a bunch of LSD, and see what hidden truths would emerge... Does that happen? A bunch of scientists should really take some psych…

    I love stories like these. Reminds me of The Last Question by Isaac Asimov -- http://www.physics.princeton.edu/ph115/LQ.pdf

    Maybe whoever creates a site that requires compensation numbers will also allow applicants to leave feedback on the employers to reduce chances of that happening. (I can only hope!…

    This is why you must send the letters certified mail with return receipt. After 30 days, if the creditors do not comply, you "win"

    If you cancel on a guest as a host, Airbnb heavily penalizes your listings. They will be outranked by pretty much every other listing for at least a couple of months. (It happened …

    I took General Assembly's web dev immersive course last March. Truth be told, I had a terrible instructor -- he could code, but he couldn't teach very well. One caveat is that I al…

    I just bought one of the listings here. It claimed a profit of $14.05 with a Buy price of 22.95 and a Sell price of $37. Some notes: - The "Buy" and "Sell" locations were the same …

    I do think it's neat. One feature I expected and was surprised not to find: a "Sort by Profit Amount" feature. Clicking on "Profit" should allow me to sort the listings by amount o…

    I have a few things going on. 1. Income from ~5 non-fiction Kindle books for sale on Amazon. Around $100 a month, though at one point when I was more heavily marketing them it went…

    Has this sister ever engaged in any dubious SEO practices, such as hiring "backlink providers" on fiverr, spamming her link on unrelated websites, or too much prolific use of using…

    Another option is to put it up for sale for the Kindle (kdp.amazon.com) and at B&N as ebooks. At one point I had 5-6 books on kdp and even made over 4 figures one time. I haven't p…
