I actually think that the tax treatment differs as well - the 2 months free can be treated as a marketing expense, whereas the reduced rent simply results in the lower revenue. For financed buildings it also keeps the nominal value of the b

Well, they may export crude, but without refinery capacity they are probably capped at the rate they can produce usable product.

How is that an enormous dose? The recommendation is 2x200mg every 4-6h. When doing competitive athletics, I probably took 1-3g of “vitamin I” a day. 600mg a day is barely above a single dose.

I think I'd be willing to pay more to offset higher content costs for more theater/blockbuster type movies. If Netflix was say 14.99 instead, I wonder what that would do to help? Perhaps splitting the content between tiers? It wou

That works until you get into anything complicated. Recently, I had a spreadsheet that our finance team built that provided different calculated values (for a multi table aggregation, nothing simple for sure) on Excel Windows and Excel OS X

Sure it can - think of smallpox: the first smallpox "vaccine" was actually inoculation with cowpox - a similar, but less virulent virus. The provoked immune response rendered a smallpox infection less lethal, and provided a measur

Realistically, these are all the same thing in different manners - dissolving a business, and starting another immediately competing in the same space, which seems shockingly sensible to me.

Yeah, I remembered that wasn't the right pairing after I wrote that (and thankfully ours weren't paired like that, we had the right names); but that also goes to show you the downside of that particular naming scheme - it requires

I used to run a dual stack app, windows was Roman mythology, linux was Greek, that allowed us to keep roles straight across environments - apollo/hermes, athena/minerva, etc.

This is technically true for MOST taxes in the USA. Generally municipalities have reciprocal agreements with each other, but when tax is fixed at a state or municipality level, you generally are supposed to file proof of tax payment in the

I think it's a fine line- I'm not in finance, but from what I understand you want some incentive to purchase a new issue as you have a set target of shares you're trying to move. I think that doubling in price is a bad thing,

There's no requirement to go "public" in the sense of listing on an exchange, and available for public purchase. What changes at that point is SEC regulatory compliance kicks in: earnings/revenue go public, SEC complianc

The issue with credit card vs cash is actually far more nuanced. For example, in Boston, cab drivers don't get to choose a payment processor, the processor/cab company takes about a 8-12% cut of the total, and it's quite ofte

I think the issue is more that the ISPs are demanding payment at both ends of the tunnel. They charge you and I for transit (best-effort though it may be) and then when a bulk of their customers traffic turns to a popular network, attempt t

From the DOL: "Being paid on a “salary basis” means an employee regularly receives a predetermined amount of compensation each pay period on a weekly, or less frequent, basis. The predetermined amount cannot be reduced because of vari

This is why you sign an exclusion clause when you start anywhere. I don't know why this is so crazy. Salaried employees are paid regardless of hours worked, which means that you are technically always employed, regardless if you'r

Running headless virtualization on a server with KVM? Sure, for a desktop system it might make sense, but headless systems might be better served with QEMU-KVM.

They also argue that this poses a long-term potential problem for VC as well. Eventually an institutional investor wants their money back. Eventually they have to settle up and see who the Amazons are vs. the Pets.com. That forces businesse

But at step 3, you've already validated the code change. You know that the name only code works as intended, and you're just cleaning up old code at that point. I do agree that there is a potential for failure at that point, but I

I can see both sides of the coin though - for a company that is as heavily cloud-invested as Netflix is - it might make less sense to maintain a cage for internal IT in a few datacenters. That said, I do get worried about sensitive data in
