What really makes me concerned is what the after effects are going to look like. What happens to housing prices after this is all over? When people realize their impulsive buys were a mistake. When foreclosures and evictions sweep the count

Here are some of my reasons why I love working (and working hard): 1. I actually enjoy programming and working with others. 2. Sense of purpose. Working with others towards a common goal. 3. Reward. The harder I work, the more I increase my

Why should a company hire someone who is potentially going to impact their own revenue? And in rarer cases, a side project that actually generates enough revenue to where the amount of money they are paying you is less than the share you ar

I don't think the price differential between San Antonio and Austin housing is high enough to offset the level of talent and appeal that Austin (or even Dallas for that matter) currently provides for the tech scene.

I disagree with your first sentence. Say that you work for Amazon, and you start an e-commerce side project that directly impacts the growth of e-commerce outside of the Amazon marketplace. It may be a negligible share of the market, but yo

Not necessarily, many large companies are willing to guide and help an employee determine if something is okay or not to work on. You shouldn't be discouraged for posing the question, and if you are, the employer is not being rational.

As long as the side projects are in no way considered a conflict of interest, I think it should be acceptable. It is sometimes difficult to determine whether or not something is a conflict of interest. The other thing to be careful of is ma

Is there strong evidence that this will happen anytime soon? I've heard many arguments that claim this wouldn't happen anytime soon, particularly because of the level of difficulty and the required determination.

I think you are going about this all the wrong way. You seem to think that most people who use positive words are just putting up a facade and using these words for the sake of using them. Consider the co-worker who acknowledges hard work y

It's worth noting that insurance companies require a relatively substantial fee for Uber drivers yet most of the people driving don't report being drivers to insurance companies. I am not sure if this study accounts for this.

I can't imagine how immensely powerful it would be to have a game like Diablo leverage block chain for its items. This would eliminate the risk of dupes and ensure a fair system.

At my last company, we used redis both for celery as a queue, and a cache for values we needed to call often and retrieve quickly. We ALSO used Mongo, but moreso as a store for larger documents that were called less frequently. I think it&#

It may be part of the same philosophy of "trying everything," but it would be naive to say that there are no motivations of improving the negative reputation Amazon has built upon itself through its intensive work ethic.

To your first point, I would strongly disagree, and actually argue that you are the one being wildly inaccurate and ignorant. I know many people first-hand who were affected negatively from the drugs. As an example, I once had a very charis
