If I am understanding your problem correctly, I did that for a large American automotive electronics supplier back in the 1990s - though back then 30-40 megabytes of data was pretty big. We trained a bunch of American…
> nokia, samsung and others were all on their way with competing products that would have filled the void had the iphone not been there We used smartphones in the labs at Motorola when I started working there in 2001.…
The problem Apple had with Motorola was that Motorola couldn't get the chip yields they needed at high clock rates. The problem Apple had with IBM was that IBM didn't care enough about power efficiency to make the chips…
I've found working with and improving legacy code to be some of the most compelling work I've done and I'm not alone in feeling this way. But it's nearly impossible to find that kind of job because employers tend to go…
I just clicked on the start menu, and halfway down the list of apps is "Suggested: Fitbit Coach. Up your fitness level". That's an advertisement. My computer has never had anything related to Fitbit on it. Ever.
Maybe the person was looking for a new job because the bosses forced them to use X in 2017.
> Bus lanes and stops are actually empty a lot of the time, they just need to be clear at the particular moment when the bus needs them. Yes, this is true. Here in Chicago, it is only illegal to block a bus stop if it…
In less than 50 years, Chicago went from a town of fewer than 5000 to the second largest city in America, with well over 1 million residents, yet during that period: a) Skyscrapers didn't exist until the end of the…
This cannot be emphasized enough. Accessing PACER from a courthouse is free. Accessing PACER for a case you are involved in is free. Getting judicial opinions from PACER is free. If you convince a judge that the cost of…

The idea is not to have a 3 story house, but to have 3 housing units on that 5,000 sq ft lot - which is not even remotely Manhattanization of the neighborhood. However, unless this bill prevents or limits the…
A 1-ounce gold coin issued by the US Mint is legal tender to the tune of $50. It says so right on the coin. If you want to pay your taxes using gold coins, go right ahead. They will gladly accept it.
I can remember reading Bertel Schmitt over at TTAC [1] years ago. You will find very few people in the world who can write well enough and have the level of car industry knowledge that he has. If I remember correctly,…
If clean data and easy access is a priority and you are willing to pay money, the gold standard is CRSP [1]. Full disclosure - I work there. [1] http://www.crsp.com/
When you are new, you should be given a lot of leeway to ask questions. So, perhaps you should set aside potential motives and use these rejections as opportunities to ask questions. Something along the lines of: "I've…
Yes, exactly. The toll roads in Illinois aren't actually cash-only. They just don't accept credit cards at the toll booth because of the long transaction times. If you want to pay by credit card, just go through the…
New York to Chicago via Toronto and Detroit is certainly not the most direct route, but it does make a lot of sense in the context of what is already in place. VIA Rail advertises that its Toronto to Windsor service is…
