It's about the expected value of a customer. It's probably thousands recurring per year for the wealth management stuff, and people don't switch often. So the customer acquisition cost can be super high -> lots of…
Is people misrepresenting themselves something you encounter frequently? Seems like a short sighted move.
This makes a lot of sense. A large business doesn't rely on the average employee. The employee relies on the business for food, shelter, healthcare...everything. It's just an inherently large imbalance, and the only way…
Yeah, in my early 20s and the loss of freedom + increase in responsibility that comes with marriage makes it a real head scratcher.
Definitely, plenty of PhD students looking to make some extra money. I saw requests like this on grad student email lists frequently.
From experience, I think you're right with this advice. A ridiculous amount of doors open up if you go to a decent school - he'll get there and be pulled into internships...try a few things...and have lots of options…
Do you realize that the top .1% is also part of the top 1%?
From the side, it looks like it has been in an accident already. I think the side indents are too prominent.
Yeah, I read that book as well and felt the same way. I think in many ways working memory is the most important thing - sure I can learn these methods to memorize 1000 random facts - but what 1000 random facts will help…
Did you compare the baseline browser usage to browser + video?
That's it? I was expecting something more at the end.
On the other side of this, I am surprised that people kill each other at all.
I think these headlines promoting exercise for long term benefits might do more harm than good, people have a hard time doing things for super delayed gratification. I exercise because the immediate effects are evident…
What do you stay up to do that you enjoy? I think that for most people who don't get enough sleep it's not because they are busy squeezing every bit of joy out of life. It's because they're using their phone in bed,…
Dimmer why?
I would think the opposite. If something is easily copied, it means the execution is simple. The value adding part is coming up with the idea that people want.
I don't think this suffering is worse than what people lived through back then. Imagine if your full time job was just finding food to put in your mouth and wake up the next day. I appreciate the comforts of modern…
Again, appreciate the time taken to respond. I'll do my best to make this work out, this was my dream job before I joined.
Previous largeish tasks were found to be of questionable value after they were completed, by other mgrs. I like my team and manager, I just don't think they have a lot of time for me or time to think about what I'm…
Ah I see. Yeah, to do <2k in the bay area either roommates or studio + ramen :P
Yeah, same here in the bay area.
So say my boss assigns me a task of questionable value. Should I really question it having been there for a few months, or would they take it as I don't trust their judgement? I just started recently and was considering…
That's a good attitude to have, 'just do your piece, every day.' It makes sense, and after a few years you have much more freedom bc of the savings. I'm a recent grad though, and I find my work very boring and tedious.…
What are examples of things you took initiative on (without violating NDA or revealing personal details?) Are we talking about new major products/features? Did you join with past experience/at a senior level? What…
$2k/mo seemw very high for India (I'm not too familiar), are you supporting a family/spouse as well or is New Delhi just expensive?
