"Sales" is a very broad topic. What aspect of sales are you looking to get better at? The initial prospecting and sourcing of qualified leads? Turning leads into opportunities and proposals? Closing opportunities? Or…
I may be overly cynical of US government policies and procedures, but I read this as someone tried to use AWS or similar without permission.
They don't want to do this, because they don't want to become a "stamp of approval" for companies coming out of YC. Specifically, if a company comes out of YC and is looking to raise further funding down the road, it…
> Why would an HR person or a CFO EVER give up 1) expert benefits consulting 2) protection against the ACA 3) access to long-standing carrier relationships that allow for renewal negotiations 4) ability to support…
This seems like a pretty clear signal that the ability of the state to conduct mass surveillance may be slipping.

If they are trying to seem as immature and incompetent as possible, this is definitely a great way.
No, that issue seemed to get cleared up successfully. He used that to foreshadow issues with his manager and general escalation communication.
It will be interesting to see how this works out, and how many resources are put behind it. If it does allow developers to choose to work on Linux/Mac for .NET development, it will put a lot of pressure on Windows to…
This really speaks to this line in the top comment "It's your job—as someone who knows the consequences—to convince people of this." Your company should really not be taking the "set it and forget it" approach to…

After the first 7 predictions I made I ran into a series of many people where I was the first one making the prediction and didn't get to test my prediction against the crowd. It would have been a better experience to…
