Santa Fe is an amazing town. We had some great breakfast, went' walking around looking in all the art ships. Of note, the Chuck Jones Gallery was fantastic. The weather is amazing. Wish we could just stay here forever.
Off to Vegas tomorrow.
I rent my house now, but the plan was always to buy one when I had some money saved and better credit, but I had planned to get a house before having the baby. Fate had other plans, so I pushed the house buying plans back a few years.
My aunt in law (a bank manager) has been bugging us to buy a house, as she sees tons of foreclosures that are cheap, and although we are cash poor, we have excellent credit now (my score is ridiculously high for some reason,) and apparently I can buy a house (including taxes, insurance, etc) for considerably less than I pay in rent now. A bigger house, in a nicer neighborhood.
Hurray terrible economy!
Sometimes I feel like splurging and buying an entire Detroit neighbourhood for $200.
Bad investment imo.
What if I turned it into Williamsburg north?
If I was a billionaire, I would buy a bunch of land up in MS, and move lots of nice houses to it. There are lots of wonderful houses in the US that can't be given away because of the location. Memphis comes to mind.
I'd buy Centralia, and turn it into a Silent Hill theme park.
is there anyway to use eminent domain to just remove shitty people from neighborhoods? Or to force cities/towns into lowering properity taxes?
That seems to be the two major factors in old but nice areas rotting and staying vacant. People with money are afraid of crime and it is cheaper to live in a new suburb than pay taxes (and renovation expensive) for property in a city.
With it being so easy to throw up a metal building and contract work out, why bother paying high rates to have a business or factory in a city? There are plenty of nice vacant art deco style factory buildings sitting in memphis. But why bother with them? For 1/8th the price, you could throw up a tin building outside of the city limits. Pay less for the building, pay much lower property tax, no city ordinances. staff get cheaper rent on local housing,
The thing is that the government of Memphis could offer incentives to get businesses to occupy those buildings, or buy them directly. That's what the governments here in NJ and NY offered to spur development. The crucial moment for the re-development of Times Square is when the city bought a bunch of theaters and renovated them. Tax abatements are also commonly used to spur people to come to certain areas. Basically, move in and you don't pay property tax for 5 years.
Blighted areas can and do turn around. But there needs to be some compelling reason for people to come to those areas. Hoboken was blighted not too long ago but it's doing great now. Because it has a great location and is walkable and was very cheap. Once people started coming back it became a self-affirming cycle. People come back ->set up attractive businesses -> more people come back.
But shitty crime- and drug-infested places out in the middle of nowhere? No, they have no hope. This goes for huge swathes of the midwest BTW. I can totally see the core of Detroit and Cleveland becoming great places to live. The suburbs around the periphery? Probably not.
You just described the Delta.Quote:

So now I've done the same. I set a goal of losing 100 pounds in the next year (that's 2 pounds a week for the mathematically challenged). It has put me on a (in my mind) generous diet of 2800 calories a day. I switched up some shit and took smaller portions, but didn't drastically change my diet and I'm pretty much done eating for the day (might have some fruit when I get home) and I've only used 1300 of what they say I can have. Psyched. I HAVE to lose weight.
2800 seems like a hell of a lot, but you certainly need more than 1300. Back when I was going to the gym I got fussed at for not eating enough as well.
I think everyone should track what they eat for one week. If I had to guess, I would say that most people underestimate the amount they eat by at least half.
I used a calorie tracker and not much else to lose some weight that was bugging me. I was just eating a bit too much.
I was amazed at how many calories were in the little "treats" I was eating. Mind blowing.Quote:

DEVELOPERS!
The comments are disheartening, but I'm going to read regardless. Thanks for the link.
The one comment is from a dull-ass nerd that probably works for Microsoft. In fact it's probably Steve Ballmer.
I like Microsoft and even I feel they've really gone to shit in the last few years.
I think the article pretty much nails it. The company's success is derived from Windows and Office and it has paralyzed them. The only success they have had outside of those spheres is Xbox, but even that is a highly qualified success that took 10 years of losses. They couldn't replicate that with Zune and they're not doing it with WP7.
If Windows 8 doesn't catch on in growth segments (tablets, basically), they really are screwed.
Pretty much, though I can't entirely fault them for wanting to stick to Windows the way they did because it's how Apple's success is. The problem is that Windows was too far behind for them to make these products like Windows, whereas Apple was completely fine with letting the iPhone outdo it's main software and then catch up etc. The reader is really a key point, it sounds like had they gone with it originally it would be a huge difference maker.
I don't know if I want to read this. It starts off with "To the saccharine rhythm"
It's amazing how horribly wrong things have gone for them in every market except for software. The article doesn't even touch on things like the Kin
It hasn't even gone that well for them in software. Bing is software, etc. It really is still Windows and Office.
A lot of companies, once they get to a certain size, are content to just ride it out. GM did it. IBM did it. Now MS is doing it. Meanwhile Apple had no problem making the iPod obsolete, even though at the time it was their most successful product ever.Quote:

Even Windows 8 is just a compromise to put Windows on more stuff. Considering that people are talking about Sinofsky (head Windows guy) as the next CEO, they will go down with that ship.
Bing isn't doing too bad from what I thought, because they are the underdog there. They've massively undercut google on Bing maps in particular because Google charges out the wazoo (Though they recently dropped their prices so I don't know if that changed).
I dunno, Bing's alright.
Bing is doing HORRIBLY.
http://articles.chicagotribune.com/2...search-related
It also points to another problem Eichenwald touched upon: MS can't buy their way into a market like they used to. They did it nonstop in the 80's and 90's. The Xbox was the last big one (and it still took almost a decade before it could be considered successful).
WP7 just depresses the shit out of me. Such an elegant product releases by a huge company that went NO WHERE.
I feel that way about all the newest OSes. I still use XP at home. I use the newest ones for work and school and just don't see enough return to bother with upgrading. It all just seems like the same old shit in a nicer package.
I don't really see the big deal. Is anyone shocked that someone eventually overtook Microsoft? This always happens. You never stay on top forever. Is anyone shocked that the iphone outsells Microsoft products? Did you really need a 6 page article to explain all this obvious shit to you? Wait 10 years and they will probably be writing the same stupid article about Apple. Or shit, the whole US software and hardware industry.
Guessing you're going to say Kindle and I think the e-book paragraphs on page 2 covered that aspect, even if they didn't go very in-depth.Quote:

At the center of the cultural problems was a management system called “stack ranking.” Every current and former Microsoft employee I interviewed—every one—cited stack ranking as the most destructive process inside of Microsoft, something that drove out untold numbers of employees. The system—also referred to as “the performance model,” “the bell curve,” or just “the employee review”—has, with certain variations over the years, worked like this: every unit was forced to declare a certain percentage of employees as top performers, then good performers, then average, then below average, then poor.
“If you were on a team of 10 people, you walked in the first day knowing that, no matter how good everyone was, two people were going to get a great review, seven were going to get mediocre reviews, and one was going to get a terrible review,” said a former software developer. “It leads to employees focusing on competing with each other rather than competing with other companies.”
The article was largely focusing on bureaucracy but I also think that a big reason MS feel so far behind was that they refused to throw everything out and start fresh. The interconnection between Windows and everything else is not a bad thing, but the requirement for them to always support past iterations for too long a period of time is what I feel really crippled a lot of their development. Some of the biggest problems with Longhorn and Vista was that they were trying to keep support for stuff all the way back to Win95, which is why it was so bloated and unwieldy.
Support should only be required for one iteration back and that's it. Windows is only just now trying to completely phase out Windows XP, which is over 10 years old. Yes, some people will complain, but the overwhelming majority will get over it and use what's new and the people that actually require an older version will be able to install that. Less bloat, less fuss, less conflicts, and a shorter development cycle. I think they're starting to finally head in that direction with Windows 8, which is good but could be too little too late. They're hanging on in a Nintendo kind of way at this point, and it's very slowly getting to the point where I wonder if MS will end up going Office-only in another decade.
You're right, we should all ignore the mistakes they made and never try to understand where they screwed up and why. Who learns from mistakes? No one, that's who. After all, you can tell from using Windows how their upper management shut down their e-book project and that they were using stack ranking. All completely obvious things.Quote:

there must be a very in depth study on this that business managers pretend to understand. Because this isn't the first time I've seen an old company take this approach. Some managers honestly think that employees always work better when they are angry. It doesn't matter who they are angry at, just that they are angry. I don't know how they get this idea in their head, but it is a real managing approach.Quote:

Yes, you do need to read about Microsoft. You need to read about all of them. We talk about Sears today (even though Sears has been irrelevant for 30 years) because it's such a good story. Likewise, people will be talking about Microsoft for 30 years too. Don't be dumb.Quote:

Yeah, after my last post I realized his whole complaint is that obtaining knowledge is stupid when things can be summed up in ways that don't mean anything. I'll move on.
Maybe they did consider it? Becuase it sounds like the result was that employees staid frustrated and angry at each other and the company culture. And a lot of people walked because of it. Higher ups had to know pretty quicly how angry this shit made employees. They just didn't care. They must have thought it was the right choice and that it made employees more productive.Quote:

You talked about that knowledge not being something you can profit from, and then accost people for not already knowing something you can't make a profit from.
Also I'd try to use that knowledge if a company resembles something like Microsoft, to avoid working for them or at least to be more cautious.

You're not going to be the next CEO of a major software company, and the general stuff that would help you at any business, you should already know by being aware of the world around you.
I wasn't making a blanket statement against all learning. As long as I've been in college, why would I say such a thing?
This is incredibly laughable. Where are you going to find this out before working somewhere? If employees are putting this kind of shit out into the public sphere, you don't need to read this article to know you shouldn't work there.Quote:

I just think it's a good and interesting article. Get fucked.
Just finished. Great read. I'm not sure why, but I love reading these sorts of things on tech companies.
Edit: No point.
Harvard Business Review puts out dozens of articles like this each year of you enjoy reading such things.
Microsoft has had a bad 10 years, but they seem to be adapting slowly. Theyve been working on ways to depreciate old tech.
Ive been developing a web interface connecting to a Microsoft ASP.net server out of sheer necessity that upgrading the network would cost literally 125k of man hours and travel. Enterprise style business is slowly adapting. Once these anchors are pulled up Microsoft can absolutely do better. And theyre trying.
The new Windows 8 OS and Surface tablet have a user centric design philosophy behind them. For the first time in Microsofts history they are putting how people interact with their products right up there along with the tech specs. Thank Apple, I guess. But Apple has been making a lot of greedy anti-competition and user moves lately. Theyve also been bullying developers alittle with their weight.
Its interesting to be a developer these days. Either way i like the chaos a bit. Gives me something new to wake up to every week.
I quit today. Well, today was my last day. I took a contract job that will probably only last a couple of weeks. After that (or god forbid that I don't work out and last only the first morning), I don't know what I'm going to do. I'm still going to work on this project in some capacity but ultimately the only way to get anyone's attention was to quit. I don't like that strategy.
The guy that hired me understood completely. I wasn't hired to do this job, we are under- and inappropriately staffed, etc.

EDIT: I hate captioning photos. Mainly cause I want to get great shots of all the competitors and it sucks adding the names to all the photos. Other than that, it is fun as shit.
ElCap, you should swing by Denver in the next couple of weeks before I move, it'd be cool to meet you if you have the time. I can get you to some great breweries.
That might work, and I would love to. Weekends aren't so great for me, but it could be easy for me to come out to Denver during the week, depending on when. Unfortunately I really can't plan that well advance as there are so may things I am trying to get working (2 jobs, shooting for Summit Daily, shooting for myself, gallery, etc.) When are you moving?Quote:

Honda called me today for a job interview. I think I put in a resume 6 months ago?
I probably have 2 or 3 more to do before a job, but hey, its better than a "Thanks for your interest <blank company> but...." letter.
I'm way to honest on job interviews
"so, how'd you find out about this job opportunity"
"I don't really remember, I sent in the resume 6 months ago" "I'm thinking job fair at my college. Maybe."
Today was the first day at my new assignment. I forgot what this felt like. People care about their work, the boss is coherent and makes decisions, etc. Even if it's only super temporary, today was the first day in a long time (weekday, weekend, whatever) that I have been at peace with myself. I got literally zero sleep last night. I was so nervous. But it was all good, I am pretty intelligent too ;p
Good work Joust, it's always good to see someone get out of somewhere they're not happy. If you're unhappy with life, you just have to take the plunge and change. The world is way too big to be unable to find a place for yourself barring absolutely terrible circumstances.
Started my new job today at the web start-up. When I interviewed there at the end of May it was 35 people or so? Now it's 63. Place is getting seed and VC money out the wazoo.
I'm happy. Shortest commute of my life, most money, best benefits, I get to make my own hours, they stock beer in the fridge & have a roof top patio with a postcard view of the skyline of Toronto, it's close enough to downtown that I can drive 10 minutes and meet up with friends, it has free street parking, they give you a $500 dollar a year "computer" bonus which goes up to $1000 second year and $1250 the third, and better yet everyone seems to love it here and genuinely care about process and work. They let you work from home 2 days a week if you want to. Everyone contributes. There's no "it'd be good to do things this way..." with no follow-up. They follow up. They wanted a rooftop patio and it was built in 2 weeks. All of the managers HAVE to greet new hires and have a round table sit down to get to know them. It's just an amazing place.
I'm also working in a lab with another designer/developer. All we do is play with new technology and how it can benefit the business (or not). Our first order of business is to retool the main page and login process to increase engagement throughout the set-up process. After that we have to mess with Google Maps / Apple Maps' API (which I have experience with) to record travel mileage for people to expense (it's accounting software).
Best job I've ever heard of. VERY glad I didn't stick with the first place that hired me after I graduated from school.
You should get a bike to take to a place like that. Save money on gas, look like a badass and keep in good shape (I'm pretty sure you're already in good shape though right?)
You should tell more people how to live their life better.
Got a bit pudgy going back to school. I started boxing at a local boxing gym (not boxercise, just hitting the bags, skipping, and stuff) and playing volleyball on Tuesdays (so tonight). With my side business doing well and this new job, and dating/friends my weeks are filling up pretty quick. Once I establish myself within this company as a great asset I'm planning on moving down there in a condo or house. The area is great... I was worried about variety at lunch but the area is well stocked with different food (bbq, fish & chips, sandwiches, chinese, coffee shops, bistro's, a fried chicken & donut shop, etc.). I'll never be able to give up my car with the amount of moving around I need to do (even AROUND Toronto...) but I'd like to cut down on my commute. There are condos on the same street as the company, too. So I could make my commute 6 minutes if I REALLY wanted to!Quote:

If you did a good job and your work is good nobody cares (on purpose -- the culture is "make your own hours but don't be a douche").

I feel like I completely nailed today's job interview, even if it was ridiculously all over thanks to be given incorrect directions, had the wrong department start to interview me due to identity confusion, and then went kind of back-and-forth between two interviewers because the person who was supposed to be handling it was really busy so she kept passing me between her and another floor supervisor.
There's a chance the job won't work out anyway due to time conflicts, but the lady I accidently started interviewing with the first time was actually looking for someone (her real interview had cancelled) and now has my name plus there's another open position I was contacted about at a closer facility. Regardless of how it ends up, the whole thing went really smooth.
Also: I used up some of my PTO for this upcoming weekend at my current job and am really excited about not having to work for almost two weeks.
You did not get this job.
:(
That's cool.
That sounds like a great place to work.Quote:

Any guess as to why they're so seemingly disorganized?
Edit: Whoops, you already answered that.
They're an overly-large corporate entity with separate facilities that still tie into and report back to the main campus while simultaneously having their own management. It's ridiculously unwieldy, but it also means I'm either working for them or the other gigantic company. Private hospitals are practically non-existent here.
Maybe if he gets a job he can fuck shit up and still keep his job. They don't seem organized enough to notice.
