    Quineloe, I understand if you don"t feel like migrating for one reason or another, but it"s probably not the best idea to announce to the world that you use and re-use weak passwords.

    Citation needed. Ravvenn made the comment about wanting me as an admin. I said I"d do it if I got asked. I never got asked. Fine by me. I"m just tired of having to VPN home because work"s uber-permissive firewall is blocking this site otherwise. Shit gets fixed and I have no reason to launch...

    I don"t see a problem with people like Izuldan and Lyrical who reinvest a tax-optimal amount in their business, even if I disagree with their views on government. I only have an issue with people like krinkled that start a money-losing business on paper for the sole intent of tax reduction, and...

    Defrauding Facebook blackhat thread

    Yeah, that"s true. I was just thinking about it from a startup perspective -- betting the house on a page with farmed likes as a way to reach customers just doesn"t seem like an effective way to go about it. Then again, I know jack and shit about advertising. Out of curiosity, what"s the...

    Defrauding Facebook blackhat thread

    Here"s one thing I"m wondering about this whole setup. Facebook Likes are considered valuable since it"s basically a personal endorsement of a product or service to your friends. If they turn into just another SEO-style ranking system, that greatly reduces their value. I imagine Facebook...

    Dudes, if your woman doesn"t usually have hangups about sex, has a relatively healthy body image, and hasn"t been abused, and always wants the lights off during sex, it means you need to lay the fuck off the donuts or come to grips with the fact your lady only gets off when she"s imagining...

    Wouldn"t it be prudent to bring in a younger PM and have him work with your 10 year guy (or you) until he learns the role, and use the competition to draw down the PM"s salary demands? The dude"s either worth his demands, or not. Look at it from his shoes -- you aren"t bringing in anyone else...

    I guess I"m just used to it. She has the same personality as a lot of people in IT -- they know (either rightly or wrongly) that they"re right, and they"re extremely relentless in showing you that. It"s a great personality for solving problems, but it"s not exactly the best thing ever when it...

    Salary Negotiation

    So long as you"re polite about it, it never hurts to ask for a raise as long as you can make a valid case for it. If they don"t give it to you, get an offer in hand and go back. Let them know that you enjoy working there, and you don"t want to leave, but the increase in salary the offer would...

    Very few people are going to say it matters to them, but given two choices that are rather equivalent in everything else, people will choose the guy with hair or the one with whose face is more symmetrical. Since appearance is the thing that comes across the most on a dating site profile and you...

    I"d definitely be interested. My goal for age 40, assuming my health holds up, is to be running my own IT consulting firm, or to get the website idea that"s been kicking around in my head off of the ground.

    It takes quite a bit of shame to let someone give up control of their money. For me, it took having to ask a boyfriend to loan me some cash until payday when I was making 2x what he did. I never wanted to be in that situation where every time I looked at a bank statement I saw overdraft fees...

    Do you offer a referral bonus to your employees if they refer a person and they last 90 days/a season/a year/whatever the norm in your industry is? Hell, are such referrals worth a damn in your industry? It works pretty well in IT.

    One thing I plan to do with the kids we plan on adopting is setting aside money for 80% of a college education (both the hubby and I feel that the kid should be responsible for at least part of their education), but if the kid doesn"t go to college, learns a trade, has a good business plan, and...

    I believe the rule of thumb in the current lending environment is that if you can even manage to get a business loan nowadays, they want you to have at least half the needed startup funds as your skin in the game, and you"re probably going to be backing the loan with personal property.

    I gave someone this same advice down in the Development forum. If you have interest from Big Name Company A that you want to work for for the name recognition, and smaller company B that"s less stable but more pay, take B"s offer back to A and say that you have an offer from B, and while you...

    The big name recognition bump you get is the first company that people have heard of on your resume...at least it was for me. My offers and offer amounts noticeable increased after I had Citigroup on my resume, since it gave me enterprise IT experience in a high stress, 5+ 9"s uptime...

    Like I said in my post, you"re far more likely to hit affluent customers on news talk radio and sports radio. Listeners of both trend older, are more likely to own a home, and have disposable income, and are far more likely to work in a professional setting, which makes them more likely to have...

    Yeah, the only real way to track billboard stuff is to have a billboard-only offer, or have it advertise a different web address/phone number. 12k is also quite a few 30 second radio spots during prime driving hours, and you can target affluent customers by choosing talk or sports radio...
