Honest question, do you think a 2x factor of error is all that significant? Maybe it's just my EE background (where everything is measured in logs) but anything within an order of magnitude seems accurate enough for me.
> No, pitbulls are not sweet. Pitbulls are unpredictable monsters.
Do you have any direct experience with a well-loved, housebroken pitbull? In all my experiences with the breed, the only thing they're aggressive about is snuggling. /anecdata
Is the system setup to value them with money? Can a parent walk into a school and agree to higher property taxes if their kid is placed in a specific teacher's classroom?
Perhaps it's possible that digital marketing is not all that effective for commodity items?
I admit to having brand preferences for laundry detergent and garbage bags, though I like to believe (perhaps wishfully) they are a result of first-hand and family experiences.
Agreed, though it wasn't very long ago that growth was valued much higher than profitability. Maybe our opinion is (slowly) evolving? Perhaps growth-by-all-means is a perfectly valid play in an extremely network-effected market, while other markets might be better served by focusing on profitability?
Congrats on finding on a solution that works for your body. For me, I find eating keto gives me more even energy, allows me to sleep better, keeps me from feeling hungry, and I also lose weight.
Humans are pretty diverse; perhaps certain eating patterns work better for different body chemistries.
Absolutely this. All comp evaluations should start from what you could reasonably expect (salary + annualized stock) at a public company.
Startup comp is a little different; salary + the value of equity at (a reasonable) exit (but derated by a healthy 80%, because 80% of all startups fail, right?) It might also be wise to discount for any difference in preferred shares vs. common stock.
This might just be my personal experience, but I feel like a lot of people don't derate startup equity for (the statistically expected) failure correctly.
Wouldn't a much more natural unit for angular measurements be 1/(2*pi)? That way angular measurements are represented as their fraction of a circle (which is pretty easy to visualize; 180 degrees becomes 1/2.)
And your refute is an appeal to the masses or an appeal to authority depending on your tastes. Many intelligent people believe in conservative/libertarian ideals.
When considering solutions to tough problems, why exclude any class of thought?
> radio is a shitty channel through which to market your podcast
Maybe I'm just not the average NPR listener, but any time I have terrestrial radio playing, I'm highly subject to interruptions (eg., the end of my drive, a meeting during my workday, etc.) I always almost find an opportunity to resume the broadcast (via podcast) helpful.
Not to say your analysis is flawed, but SFPUC rounds everyone's water usage to the nearest 'unit' (748 gallons) meaning that anyone who uses less than 748 gallons/month is paying at least €8.05/kiloliter (based on my consistent $25/one-unit bill.)
As a single guy, I consume nowhere near my allocated 748 gallons/month, meaning my effective rate is even higher.
Both this and all the railgun technology the Navy has been developing. Undoubtedly part of the reason the new Zumwalt class destroyers are electric drive.
There is probably some merit in the season model that American television takes. "I'm going to release 12/18/24/whatever episodes over the next six/eight/twelve months" is probably more sustainable than a weekly screencast pledge. Gives the author some time off to recharge, and (perhaps more importantly) some time for technology to evolve.
