20 years ago I was using a 128k connection to the internet from my house and we all expected the gig fiber connections to be here in the next 10 years.
Most people overestimate how fast technology is moving and how fast something will happen.
> Every time you change things, you lose productivity if you don't retrain your staff on it.
In the last 15 years, I have never seen a company retrain their staff for new technology. They simply throw it out there, send out a memo about how great it is, and move on. They expect everyone to figure it out on their own.
What is the point of the retweet account? I have seen lots of them that just take something someone posts and retweets it. Heck there is a service I use to manage multiple social network accounts and it has a plugin that allows me to set up an account that does nothing but retweet what I post. I just dont see the need for it.
Put an MBA in charge of a company and they simply chase the next big thing instead of innovating and creating the next big thing.
They do this because they are not innovators and creators, they are simply followers and maintainers.
It seems to be the plight of large companies to not want to take the risk of hiring an innovator. So they look for someone who "knows how to run a business." They get what the look for, stagnation.

A few years ago there was a person who forged the court release paper work and faxed it over to the jail.
They got the fax, processed it as it normally would have been processed, and the guy was released that day. They did not catch the mistake for almost a week. lol

> Not everyone will be able to do these new jobs. I would wager (ha!) most can't; otherwise, they would already be doing it.
So people are just too stupid to do the work, got it. :P
I know 4 local places that are looking for a machinists. They can not seem to find one. Send them to Dallas please.
So how about we implant them with an AI chip and give them augmented intelligence, that way they can be useful. :P
I love the stat the 20% of the people do 80% of the work. The problem is we still need the other 80% to look busy. :P

Because hindsight is 20/20 and it is very hard to predict the future with accuracy.
Good time to learn to be a lawyer. You know these things are going to mess up and hurt someone!
So I no longer need to buy the license for my Raspberry Pi XBMC unit?
Where do I get my free key to open that up?
Well the video title "Socialism isn't cool" got demonetized and the video titles "Capitalism isn't cool" did not. lol
So there appears to be some bias in the algorithm.
I wish I had mod points, I would mod you up.

Na, the previous CEO's were innovators.
The current CEO is an MBA.

That article does not show 1% anywhere in it.

Nicotine is optional in e-cigs. I know a lot of people that smoke the flavors without nicotine.
In those instances, I would assume that e-cigs are not addictive.
Or hold on because in 9 months it will be well above the 20k top of last year.
> did you buy in Oct, sell in Dec, and will you be doing the same again next year?
I bought in January of 2011 and still have them.
Just compare the charts for the last 5 years. It drops off like this every year about this time. This is not that unusual.

That loose change for bitcoin cash is up in the 6 figures range for me right now. Not exactly loose change. lol
Im not passing up free money.
I cashed out a bunch of it when Bitcoin hit $160 a coin and bought land. What remains is still a lot but not what it was.
I keep them in my own wallet. I bought a bunch of bitcoin back when it was $0.50 a coin and have been sitting on them.
How many of those forked the blockchain?
Just trying to see how many coins I have out there and do not even know about. lol
You forgot "Sexual Disfunction" They all list it as a side effect.
Chewing gum is banned in Singapore, I hope you are chewing that gum somewhere else. If not you could face a $700 file.
