Seem to always remember this because I feel it opened my eyes to how much speech can influence, but also assist you. I'm talking about Lebron James and when he was going through his decision making in 2010. To stay in Cleveland, with the hometown team who nurtured his career and it is home, or should he sign on with Miami. For him to begin making an unemotional decision, he distanced himself from the situation; at the time he was supposedly pressured from many sides.
“I wanted to do what’s best for LeBron James and to do what makes LeBron James happy.”
Not sure what you mean, you're able to easily just use youtube-dl to download the audio only. Is the conversion suppose to change it into a certain filetype or something?
If you're working in an office you should expect some level of office noises. I'm not talking about a truck honking his horn outside your window for 8 hours is normal, I'm saying general noises - ones that have a short time on them, and are required for their jobs. I would have expected my comment to be clearer than it may have sounded.
To clarify, just because you're in a library doesn't mean it is absolutely pin drop quiet. There is basic atmosphere noise. I of course am in favor of a closed office, and cubicle farms and open environments are easily more favorable for the employer than employee, but it seems expected to have some basic noise in an open office that people love complaining about—instead of championing closed offices which is never going to happen in a lot of companies.
I think it's hilarious there are complaints about regular office noise like talking business on phones, typing, and sniffling/cough etc... If you want to go to sleep it's a perfect to expect that...otherwise stop complaining get headphones, move your desk, change your environment or remove yourself from the equation in some way.
I don't believe that productivity is hurt because of open office sounds, I think people just love complaining.
Sounds like some of my own work, I hypothesized that the body doesn’t need food itself, merely the chemicals and elements it contains. So, what if I consumed only the raw ingredients the body uses for energy? Soylent was the obvious choice because our bodies do not need food.
> By one count 48 million people in China lack sufficient drinking water. The number of people facing severe drinking water shortages doubled to 5.9 million in early 2008 because of a severe winter drought. China has more than a fifth of the world's population but only 7 percent of its fresh water.
Not from the article, but if there was a startup needed and one that could jump start their sector there, a significant problem to solve is clean water.
Walgreens probably still does those late night stickers for price changes, if anything needs to be digitized it would be that. For the benefit of the employees that have to do that painful mess of a price change constantly. Next time you visit a Walgreens or similar store and see tags everywhere just consider how much waste there is to do that every week, sometimes with the same prices just a new colored sticker.
> Why do you need to post publicly rather than marking it as unlisted and sharing the link with people you know and trust?
Important point, still kind of weird to me, even in this day and age of Facebook and social media in general, where everyone feels the need to share every intimate detail of their lives with strangers.
