I've never seen Grubers blog until today... Does he only mention the sponsor at the beginning and end of each week? I don't see any other occurrence of the sponsors name.

It's adorable how you think it will improve how war is fought. These autonomous systems will always have a manual override and I will never believe that the review process will be given proper oversight. The armed forces will always er

Serious questions: If sports viewing goes online (like MotoGP) wouldn't the organization lose a considerable amount of money and effectively ruin their relationships with tv networks that pay serious money for rights coverage? I'm

I tried using DDG... I used it for over a year. But I gave up - the search is seriously lacking. It's minor for large things, but really noticeable for more obscure searches. I went back to Google when I made my new computer 10 months

I read that as well. It seems that location based business (ie: restaurants) seem to have an easier time getting one but unfortunately my client is not. Just a bit annoying because as algorithmic it may be, I feel like I've provided al

The gig economy will only die when humans price-gouge each other so immensely that robots are the only viable option - even though they can carry a higher entry cost.

It's the degree of market saturation, so we're both right... 99 Designs is on the extreme saturation end whereas physical ones like Uber are not. But ideologically, the problems they share stem from "more providers = dilution

In my view though, the gig economy is just not sustainable. Look at sites like 99 Designs... You have an incredibly large workforce with an incredibly large spread of skills doing a lot of work for marginal payout. As these populous-run ser

It doesn't surprise me, but I am amazed every time I see something like this and realize all over again just how little of the world I've seen. I would suppose I've traveled more than the average individual, but I'm stil

So, you're basically telling me their marketing copy is as Zesty as their business name?

It makes quite a bit of sense to go back to more archaic learning methods. I don't mean that in a snarky way, but only for lack of a better term to describe very very old. Apprenticeships were how the average population learned prior t

I guess I could clarify that what I'm talking about is the time it takes for skills to become apparent and credible. I'm not saying Noah's first works were Old Master level[1] or that they even are now, but clearly you can lo

One of the things I'm pretty jealous of is that in my career path (as admittedly vague it is... I'm 25 and my education & experience is in marketing, but being a CMO certainly isn't my life's ambition) is that I coul

Skype is one of my most hated programs. And a reason for that is the utter absurdity in regards to account deletion. You have to do fairly standard things like identify email, password and some contacts.... but you also have to know the EXA

It's a huge problem that people that people haven't understood this. For me, it's akin to Apple back in the early days, and to some extent right now, enforcing low bit rate standards on iTunes. They're hinging on enough

I find myself liking the Roboto typeface more and more... It's got a lot of, dare I say, character? And I love that it's 100% free for any use.

It's so exciting that going to a meeting will soon be like going to my doctors office, filling out tons of forms and I can spend more time poking at a little screen. Technology can be super useful (obviously), but this is just total ov

Memory is one of the most important aspects in intelligence. Personally, I have a lot of knowledge but low recall speed. With a little context, I have no problem though. Anyways, improving your memory is a big first step in bettering your i

You sir are absolutely correct. I first read about the uses of hemp a long while ago in Uncle Johns Bathroom reader (I shit you not). And that got me curious and looked into it more and its uses are quite vast and the cost to produce is rel

I don't have a family of my own, so I can't do that part.... but switch an SaaS for the next single function social media platform that's obviously going to be a >$4B buyout and count me in.

It's extortion. Plain and simple. It's the same as people who buy concert or sport tickets simply for the resell. Yes it is done legally, but legality is not the same as ethics.

They didn't but they re-named it. You have to click on "Typical Traffic" and then adjust the time and date from there.

I hate their maps UX now. Just trying to pull up traffic is incredibly annoying! The whole auto drop-down thing is terrible.
