any good alternative?

in short, this is just squeezing the proverbial balloon...it moves the issue to a different area...over time, taxes have been high jacked and twisted into being used as incentives …

Stated another way. National and State lotteries are the largest ongoing wealth transfer from the lower-income bracket in the US. The lotteries are overwhelming played by the lower…

There may be more parallels to SBF and Jon Corzine than to Bernie Madoff. SBF and Corzine ran companies that were regulated by the CFTC which requires segmentation of client funds …

Enough is enough. No more running from app to app to avoid the death grip of Adobe. A call to action against Adobe's business practices of reducing competition and increasing price…

In the examples that you site, the acquisitions were complementary additions. In this case, Adobe already has a competing product suite.

seeing lots of comments about concerns given adobe's position in the market and past acquisitions...you can raise a compliant here: https://www.justice.gov/atr/citizen-complaint-ce…

it saddens me that we have not put more thought into this topic and we constantly put our education, safety, and services on the economic roller coaster. no matter how much your ho…

It's actually sad that this company with only patents and no products is a listed public company on a regulated US exchange.

Seems like a great use of Slack. Unfortunately, my first and only experience with Slack has not been a fantasy. I joined a public slack on startups and everytime I check, I'm 100+ …
