I also call Twitter, "trump's insider trading broadcast device." The way I heard it... many people are saying it, trump decides to proclaim a company is failing, fraudulent or he will ruin them but notifies all of his "transition team and chosen administration" one or two days in advance. trump's "transition team and chosen administration" then shorts that company's stock. $Million are made, trump gets a kickback and another favor on the books. All go out and spend $500 on a caviar dinner all the while masturbating and laughing at the foolish pee-on's" that support them.
Medium is headquartered in SF with offices in NYC and DC? Those three cities are probably all in the "top-15 list of the most expensive office space" cities in the U.S. Is it possible the long list of start-up and "interruption" companies aren't really good stewards of their investor's money? Why not buy/lease office space in places like downtown Gary, Indiana or Glasgow, Montana? The overhead would certainly be a lot cheaper and once they figure out their real business model and start making real money, they can move to the glitz and glamour cities.
I have to admit, my head didn't explode because I now understand Republicans will buy anything... even an Donald Trump iphone cover for $151,000. I have admit also, I am jealous of your tribe. A tribe who embraces their extremism and will publicly display their stupidity for everyone to admire.
It's a "pussy magnet." All the women will see my yugely best iphone, know I'm a star and let me grab em by the pussy. If not, I'll just go after them like a bitch and, lose all control, pop a few "blue tic-tacs", and start kissin on em. As a Republican in the U.S. I obviously I would buy my gold iphone in a Muslim country because I love them?
... "You are literally blaming the guy, who has NEVER been in charge, and ran on STOPPING this issue from being an issue. I'm not sure there is a single American that is more against it than Trump and you still blamed him for it."
Just yesterday a Trump surrogate (whatever that is) or talking-head said "Take Donald Trump seriously but not literally -- or better yet, take him symbolically."
As a citizen of the U.S. if I'm allowed to assign Trump a symbol it would be the symbol of a "Liar." Come Jan. 20, 2017, our freedoms under the new "Trumpstitution" could be limited.
The losing side? Oh, you mean most of the citizens of the U.S.? Yep, but we're not licking Trump's Twitter-whining behind. We're trying to make sense of a president-elect who based his entire campaign on lies. I know, it's confusing for the uneducated but keep on reading the back of your cereal box each morning. Trump will eventually write a secret message to you. Till then, you can donate all your money to that multi-millionaire (not even close to a $billionaire) so he can buy his narcissistic partners in crime a fancy "gold-foil hats" for XMAS.
I had a few "free" lifetime apps and services that reverted to a paywall or charge for the pleasure now. Google features like Maps and Picasa? They change or get deprecated and within a few years links and embedded features disappear. My MS OneDrive "forever free ~25gig cloud storage" has been cut in half. I've learned not to trust any second or third party online channels for anything other than temporary stuff.
Hopefully the new "lifetime" in today's world hasn't been modified to actually mean five years. "The end of the world as we know it..." could be only four years away or Jan. 20, 2017.
IBM says they will spend $1 billion on training. They also want the U.S. to ramp up vocational education benefits and obviously if Trump is involved, he'll throw tax incentives at IBM. Who will benefit? IBM stock will rise. Trump will raise his little hands in triumph. "Capitalism Wins" or that's how the story will be told.
And this whole time I thought corporations did it all on their own.
Where do you get your weather from if not from the unscientific Weather Channel? I'm sure you download the NAM and do your own forecasting like any true scientific icon would do. Or maybe you are studly enough to forgo any model data and just use the raw observations? Skew-Ts are quite useful if you're a weather stud.
Holy shit, my neighbor put up 123 different antennas directed at my rural home about two years ago. The three acre array seemed suspicious but I'm a trusting guy. Time to do away with my wireless keyboard.
With 20 million+ WordPress sites out there and some are even useful and successful, the call to get rid of the platform can only be called hyperbololic drama queening. However, someone stole my wallet three days ago and all my money inside it. I also know others this has happened to over the years I have been alive. I stand before you asking for your help in making wallets and money obsolete. It's just too big of a risk for humanity to allow those two items to co-exists. Better to banish both. Stand with me?
You must be a Republican. Making a political issue out of a non-political issue is the trait of a true Republican. While I have no proof of this fact, Facebook is all the evidence I need. An example? Bill posts "The rain has just started at my house and it looks like it's moving east" / Republican Donald posts" Odumbos climate change didn't account for the EPA dictators secret Hillary emails before letting the chemtrails to be delivered FOR FREE to libracon dumbloaders. Trump will make America great again when he writes a new Trumpsitution and gets rid of that past-due Bill of the Rights."
By design, automobiles are dangerous. There is no way around that fact.
By blocking the use of automobiles, you automatically reduce dangerous behavior by 90%.
I now have a new outlook on life thanks to my new skill to make up facts, stats and scary stuff to post on the internet.
In my little redneck part of the woods, the sheriff and his lead deputy talk about how scary the ISIS threat is to the county and I suspect the country too. They talk about it in the open so it's not a secret to the people who elect them. I use to laugh but now the election is forthwith and I have to pick between the bat-shit crazy guy in a white shirt or bat-shit crazy guy in a green shirt. Either way, a bat-shitty sheriff will be elected in Nov 2016. And while they are keeping the eyes pealed for ISIS, a bunch of yahoos with guns and a bat-shit crazy idea will come marching into town and tell us they are looking out for my freedom while taking over a government building. I'm more scared of the sheriff or likely sheriff than I am of ISIS. But my iPhone is encrypted so I'm safe... I hope. Until then at least I'm cancer free and ISIS free.
That drama filled post made me laugh out loud. Either your long term memory is not as good as it should be or you consistently installed Windows on corrupt hard drives. In any case, spending ~ four of eight hours a day not being productive due to a computer makes me think you should stay away from anything more technical than pencil and paper.
Please take it back.
The POTUS is trying to make peace and normalize a relationship that has been adversarial for 80 years. I suppose the best business advice I could offer Obama is stop trying to make more customers for US businesses. The more customers our economy has the more taxes will go up and the more the world will hate us and nuclear war is assured. The devil will take over our souls and homosexuals will ruin our lives. Not to mention all the friendly commies will convert our children into the red menace that will result in mass abortions on gun owners. It's so scary about the only person who can stop the chain-reaction of zombie doom is Trump or Cruz or whoever the GOP decides should rule the earth.
The return of FUD GOP-style has been magnificent to watch. Comedians will be the only true entertainment when Trump get elected.
And yet when you compare the figure of 100% of US residents that murder people with guns to the Canadian gun stats, somehow the US stats are much higher. I don't know what it means but some genius should study those figures. We could have a murder-fee society in just a few years.
I'm actually going to propose a study that will determine if gun manufacturers are embedding some type of ignorance drug into the metal, wood and plastics that guns are made of recently.
Thankfully someone says something that make sense.
"Crazies are already not allowed access to guns."
Now, we the people, understand all those sane people are actually good guys with guns, I feel so much safer. Just knowing that gearing up with a whole bunch of guns, playing army boy in public, is the definition of a sane gun owner. We don't need new gun laws... we just need to redefine the word sane and crazy. Army boys will be boys.
I suppose I'm the only person in North America, and maybe the northern hemisphere, that uses the cloud to store data I want access to when out of the office and that data, if exposed, wouldn't damage my business or reputation. I must be awesome.
Or maybe the cloud, like social media, is also a useful tool when used for business purposes? Guess I'll have reevaluate using the cloud because the entirety of/. has fears someone will find their research paper on subject x.
When did everyone become so bitter, angry and negative about everything. I thought that was just a Republican trait in the USA
Never had cashier ever charge me the government subsidy price. Have you?
You've missed the point. The cashier doesn't charge you the price of the subsidy. The tax man does. With milk, a subsidy might make sense since every person pretty much uses the same amount, except for lactose intolerant people, and occasional rich people with milk baths. But of the tax-paying set, the rich have a lot more light bulbs than the middle class per person. This means that the rich get a bigger tax break, funded by the middle class. Some people in the lower class might pay the tax for the subsidy and not even buy any light bulbs if they're sharing living space or their apartment pays for light fixtures.
I didn't miss the point at all. When having a conversation about what I pay for a light bulb or any item I want to make my life better such as milk, subsidies would only enter that equation if I wanted to spam my political ideology. Call me shallow but my life doesn't work that way. I'm happy you consider things like that as it greatly alleviates those types of stressors when I shop. Carry on.

A Republican in Georgia was smart enough to turn on a computer? I doubt that.

If you cannot see a huge difference between Twitter and Facebook you're not looking hard enough. But drama sells.

So when your employer withholds 30% of your salary for various taxes and you get 5% of it back on April 20th, do you proclaim "Whoopie! Free Money!"
No, but it appears you're quite bitter about taxes and have troubles separating a light bulb purchase from your tax rates. Ulcer much?
Never had cashier ever charge me the government subsidy price. Have you?
