    I do a lot of hiring of fresh out of university people. The amount of 2-3 page resumes with their 9th grade achievements astonishes me.

    The key phrase is "my team would interpret it." Everyone interprets HIPAA differently and based on a statement like: "Continuing to use Windows XP after 4/8/14 (or other unsupporte…

    I can think of a couple of things at least in the prehospitalmedial field. Bluetooth ekg machines are used to do documentation and needed to have their data sent to the hospital as…

    The car actually did hit a bus while in autonomous mode. To me, it was an odd situation though. The lane the car was in was for parked cars as well as traffic and it was ending at …

    I'm 6'3 as well with a long body and don't fit in 80ish % of cars and I fit wonderfully in a Model S even with the sun roof. Heck, I could even pull off sitting in back if a 'norma…

    When I was laid off in 2009, I got 2 weeks 'severance' even though I had 10 PTO days accrued. (They basically just paid out my paid leave). This was for a software consultancy busi…

    For the shadier dentists (and they exist), sealants don't bring in as much money as a root canal. For everyone else, it doesn't help with cavities between the teeth where a lot of …

    According to the planet money episode, Coke never actually implemented it. They just discussed the merits of it and if it would actually work.

    That's exactly the position I'm in, at least eventually. My son was born in early July and my wife and I are trying to see if we should wait until he's a full 5 and be a year older…

    "Quick Checkups" are less profitable. However, Scaling and root planing (periodontal treatment) is super profitable which is just a more time intensive version of a checkup. I do k…

    If you want one that's just rolling out, Sibley country in Minnesota is doing ftth even on farm sites. They just started the rollout and iirc it should be done at least in the town…

    Death Magnetic isn't too bad. Not Puppets good. But I listen to it every once in a while, where St. Anger was the most disappointing thing I ever experienced musically. You have to…

    Here's a different take on that: http://arstechnica.com/tech-policy/2015/03/we-know-where-you... Ars 'creeped' out a couple of people by getting the license location data and doing…

    Manual manufacturing capacity maybe. The reason 'poorer' countries have a lot of manufacturing is directly related to human cost. 'Richer' countries produce tons of stuff. The prod…

    I'll be blunt. Your code is crap. Everyone's code is crap. Code I did 2 years ago was crap. Code I did 10 years ago: shudder. Don't worry so much about what you "should" be doing a…

    My favorite to know when to do something binary like this is to flip a coin with choice #1 equal to heads and choice #2 equal to tails. When the coin is in the air, you will natura…

    I'm going to say sure, great players can make their teams better. Much more so in fact. However it takes more than just one person to be able to win games. Look at Favre. Great in …
