I've worked at a company now for 14 years - where we change what it cost plus a margin to make a fair living. Other competitors have started to 'charge based on the value made by the product'. We're winning by becoming the more 'fair and honest value' brand.

I think 'looking into customers wallets' and charging them for the value they will create with your product is a bit lame. I understand my opinion is in the minority of at least other high level managers or owners of companies.

no work in filing the forms for the insurance? no increased insurance cost? no extra work re-stocking?

I think this helps us get here, When a few thousand NFTs are created and have a hard time selling... eventually it'll work itself out.

I also believe its a Digital Tulip, even more so than Doge coin. Even BTC (when tulips bulbs were a thing they were trading high too, it doesn't mean they have real long-ish term value)

If they ever kill off the old.reddit.com site I'll be done, most users prefer the alternative mobile app --

They are a bit broken - but have taken so much capital - they have to IPO, thus is life.

Lots of those shiny towers were built by wide bid/ask spreads.. now a days liquid (good markets trade) proportional to stock price to basically pennies.

I do agree I wouldn't join an automated trading platform without a high level math degree and market understanding though.

How was ransomware's ransom paid before crypto?

Article is missing a lot of information - Like why with a 21% rate companies didn't pay taxes, or , what was the 'tax rebate' for? Also it shows the stock price change as if the company get's that money. Companies only get the initial IPO money for shares sold.

Taxes are passed through to consumers anyway; Corporations don't pay taxes - they collect them from the customer.

Everyone please be careful buying puts if you're not doing it for insurance against current holdings. If you're buying anywhere outside of the .30 delta and less than 21 days until expiration (even then) you're probably buying a lottery ticket.

The average person would be better off buying 10 x $5 scratch off lottery tickets tomorrow and accepting the result... than buying a far out of the money short dated put.

I had this happen - but I chalked it up to a punishment for using ad block, .. I got youtube premium for free when I bought Google Music (which is now youtube music?) ... it was a fair bundle for $10, all the music I want and no ads on youtube to boot ...

If they de-couple them I don't know if either is worth $10/mo indivdually.

Oh how I wish we could just use years like '84-'93 in lieu of obscure generational tags.. I agree with your general idea a lot of people were burnt out of rote memorization.

It's okay to memorize things - but I think if you teach the 'why of the equations' instead of just memorization of them - the memory would lock in with 'forced memorization'

I feel like this level of funding and therefore expected future worth is only possible if laws were passed to limit proper meat cultivation..

I have never so far felt the urge to pay more for non-beef, beef.

Tasty trade can teach you a lot of the basics... Start slow (please) with money you're prepared to lose

Isn't selecting their own job - at least a bit related to selecting their own rate..

I guess uber could put the jobs up for bid.. to address that.

This is a great definition of what I consider to be the 'poor tax'..

Not to mention if they ever get un-poor they don't have the knowledge to 'build wealth' until they start slowly learning it or from a mentor.

We would better off teaching 'home finances, interest and banking' classes instead of Algebra 3 or geometry 2 (for 99% of people)

Their number one source of revenue (search engine results page) could be defaced.

Happened to me in a minor way with ASCII chat characters running down the search engine results page into other results.

I reported that you could use this to basically block out the serp and they said it wasn't a bug then fixed it.. I was hoping for a t shirt at least..

Now I wished I would've abused it and blogged about it for the resume.

I've been using oneNote for about 10 years now at work, one page per week.. the ability to search is really helpful.

OneNote is also now free.

It definitely shouldn't be allowed as the main evidence - perhaps the answer to skin tone is to use the data and see where the algo starts to get too many false positives..

The largest - over arching idea - is to get everyone to think twice by making the majority think twice - If white people think 'its only for us!?' it'll make them really study the effects.. (I'm white.)

If it's statistically proven to not work with black people then I think the only options are

1) Make it avoid black people, i.e. they aren't stored in the database and aren't processed when scanned.

2) Put a 5 year hiatus on commercial / public use.

Either of these things are more acceptable than too many false positives. #1 is really interesting to me as a thought experiment because it makes everyone think twice.

Give me a way to turn off political posts as well please.

Why do makeup artist need certified '1,6k' hours - it's more gatekeeping like other business licenses are than it is a measurement of training.

Also the 664 hours of training for the police doesn't include the months trainees ride with a partner for real on life the job training.

It's not a intellectually honest comparison.

I've asked the question - what if FB went for bartender rules? No politics no religion... sometimes I feel like those are 65% of the content.

I still have the Qbasic for dummies book my good friend lent me probably 20+ years ago, back then I was playing with Qbasic even though it was old

I remember changes the variables in the gorilla banana toss game that came with qbasic ~ first time seeing changes in programming changing the game and it was magical.

My friend ended up being a great programmer and I'm doing e-commerce front end / project management work. Great times and I'm thankful for the experience

Stupid question: Is the dollar worth the same? If the buying power is different?

I don't think so. Being a 50mm company probably includes no longer serving the majority of markets they do now. At 50mm they become a regional taxi service with phone hailing rides.

Truth is - now that they are public ~ I'm not sure what success is... for a lot of people who started there a long time ago - the IPO was 'the success' now the public is left holding the bag (mostly by their own choice of buying the stock).

I asked the owner for a 20% cut. We had some tough negotiations on my salary 2 years ago and I wanted to express my willingness to share the 'pain'. So far she hasn't taken me up on it.

*I don't know how to take the fact she hasn't taken me up on it :/ but I do adore the company ~ 13 years in service.

I just want a modern Google Wave to come back ... it was killed so quickly :/

I don't know what the graphic style is called but I despise it. How is that type of drawing not something anyone can do? Honestly. Unless these drawings are done by children they are horrible, if they are I apologize and feel bad. I think Box.com or Dropbox used similar graphics early on.. apple had some going with apple.com/today but they have moved along.

When will people understand nothing is free. There will be no true equality until we're all equally poor.. that is until free energy / replicators, Star trek technology.

upward mobility doesn't scale well. USA is doing epic for the scale on the upward mobility. If you were born here or get to become a citizen you've won a lottery compared to the bottom 50% of the world. To claim much worse and to be a US citizen is to say you've 'earned winning the lottery' .. Not to build up the US or put down any other country just the way it is imo
