And contact lenses too. A HBS case study I remember from grad school: "Optical Distortion, Inc" A new product, contact lenses for chickens, is to be introduced by a small firm formed to market the product. An entry…
These were my go-to guys for sciencey stocking stuffers at Christmas for my kids. Their catalog was always a joy to read, with excellent puns. Like the guy who wrote the linked article, a GoFundMe for a for-profit…
You're spot on. The IBM XT was introduced immediately after I graduated and went to work. My employer's employees got a 20% discount from IBM, as IBM was a client. I bought an XT (PC + 10MB hard drive) for $4K (list…
Not the OP, but my experience with Lyme 25+ years ago in New Jersey was similar. I took oral and IV antibiotics over multiple years. The antibiotics I recall taking are Claforan, Ceftin, Augmentin, Penicillin,…
In the Texas Hill Country bluebirds used to be common. I'm not claiming that their decline is due to house sparrows, but it's clear that house sparrows can be quite harmful to many cavity-dwelling native birds. They can…
I was first exposed to Awk when I started work at Bell Labs in the late 80s. Until then, I'd been using either Lisp or C exclusively and was really blown away by how simple some things were in Awk. I used it with…
Probably not. A hardware description language (HDL) is used to program the behavior of the FPGA (that's the FP in FPGA). The HDL is usually stored in flash or EEPROM. As you mention, flash supports a finite number of…
The laptop is really a bit of a red herring. If the person is the sort that would be inclined to retaliate against the company, they could have taken a copy of the pii whether or not the laptop was in the picture. You…
Here are a couple of ideas, none of which do exactly what you want. However, they may give you some ideas... PDFMiner[1] is a python toolkit for PDF. Among other things, it extracts text from PDF files. It also has a…
Not sure what type of diagrams you are looking for, but PlantUML has a handwritten 'skin' for the usual UML diagrams. http://plantuml.com/handwritten.html
The best way to make “your house pet’s life more wonderful” is to ensure that it is consistently obedient at any time without having to resort to bribery. IMO, the best training guide/philosophy is that of William…
10+ years ago, a software development manager that worked for me had obvious problems with public speaking, even to small in-house groups (5+ people). She attended Toastmasters and, after a couple of years, was a…
Pretty much the same story for me. When I first joined the Labs, I got a 5630 (the successor to the 5620), also called the 630 MTG. At the time, it was an impressive piece of equipment that was a huge improvement over a…
Anyone with an interest in the Holmdel facility will likely enjoy this photo album of the now-empty site. http://www.newenglandruins.com/bell-labs It was an impressive building at the time. Having worked there for…
