    As someone who's also done a lot of DV and DV tools, I love to see it. This gap was something I took away from attending DVCon last year and seeing all the papers from folks reinve…

    If I remember correctly, the XBox was operating at a loss at the beginning. I think it was more than expected that it would take a few years to break into the market.

    The executives completely renounced the whole dress code thing though. It was some middle manager who though it would be a great idea for his unit and got slammed after it hit publ…

    In my personal use situation, if I want to see a movie from this year I go see it in a movie theater. If I'm just looking for something to watch, I pull up Netflix. Typically I can…

    In my experience, it is always worth showing up, but not always worth paying attention as far as a cost-gain analysis from a student perspective. Showing up ensures that if there i…

    Doesn't sound like you read the article. It states that these things came before, but religion enabled them to expand them to larger societies.

    There is a good reason why successful cultures have hierarchies. Specialization and structure improve efficiency and standard of living for everyone under it. Do you think companie…

    echoing what mlitchard said. Networking is a big help. Besides that, look at what is on the job posting. Try to use the same key words in your resume/cover letter. Not sure how wel…

    Got to watch out for the HR filter. Often at bigger companies, hiring managers don't even see a resume unless it meets the criteria they specify on it. That means people like you w…

    I think OneNote does a great job of replacing my notepad. I use it to take notes on everything I learn and might need for later. Great for documenting processes and throwing lots o…

    I was required to read Merchants of Doubt for my biology class in college. Pretty good read on this topic.
