It is not necessarily why, but it is true: https://nationalpost.com/news/canada/how-a-baker-survived-th...

Why isn’t the craftsman a good candidate for overseeing/maintaining the machine and/or overseeing unskilled labor? If he becomes skilled in that regard, you will have to pay well enough to retain his services.

It is stupid too throw good, reliable people away especially in manufacturing.

If you're accrual basis like most companies _in the U.S._, you would be obligated to do this and not recognizing would be a finding on an audit. If not, at the end of the year, companies could ship goods out reducing assets, book the corresponding cost of goods sold, and not recognize revenue until the following year.

Agree that I have no idea how this person is calculating their loss at 100k over their revenue. However, generally as in GAAP, you would recognize revenue on shipment or when a service is rendered because that would be the period in which the revenue was accrued. For example, most companies that sell on terms like NET 30 will invoice AND recognize revenue on shipment; they would not wait until payment is received on the invoice. That is why there are [contra asset]/expense accounts relating to bad debt.

Waiting until funds hit your bank account is cash basis accounting and even in that case, I am not sure how having a third party like Stripe holding the money affects things.

Branding is a bit of a moat that puts you ahead of other competitors. Literal true story but perhaps a counter example: my wife is considering buying an exercise bike and is trying to choose between Peloton and Beachbody. Everyone online seems to be suggesting she buy the Peloton. She is a little torn, because she already has done non-bike exercises on Beachbody for several years. Peloton has the leg up for the bike, because it has the best branding in that area; however, my wife was at least willing to consider Beachbody, because of her previous experience with their brand.

Please someone build something like this for sharing medical history

I do get their point from two perspectives: - in my own schooling, I anecdotally heard non-accelerated courses were worthless. Edit: even for the same course - Algebra had a different teacher for accelerated vs non. - Finland achieved its high global rank by pursuing equity first. However, not sure of the international rankings anymore.

Yes. My first job was ASP.NET Web forms and their APPSTATE really messed this up. Imagine full page reloads WITH state in between reloads.

There definitely should be a rule limiting the number of people allowed in stores.

I've quit going to our before pandemic store. It is impossible to social distance.

Sounds exactly like government contracting.

I think vanilla JS inside the components is the way to go.

Can I get a git for excel?

Kroger has an API for some things:

Do not make the same mistake as regular ERP. If APIs are available, try to integrate to sources of data people actually use vs direct user input.

Have to agree. Having to think about the selector makes you think about the structure and make things more semantic.

I have been paralyzed by trying to do things the semantic way before too though. And now no one cares according the markup I venture to look at now and then.

Don’t forget a lot of entrepreneurs fail until they don’t.

I will say, even with all the problems, even our ERP is capable of quite a few things, and I couldn't fathom rolling my own.

They just don't want you to plug anything of your own into it.

I have been working for YEARS on an ERP implementation in a custom manufacturing operation practically by myself.

As bad as I'm sure SAP is to deal with, I crave it or anything else (Salesforce?) that has any sort of easy customization, automation API and fosters some sort of community.

A large part of my particular ERP's business model seems to be to make the data model so esoteric that you are forced to go to them for any type of customization at all. Unfortunately, they make a habit of firing any of their halfway decent employees every time they get acquired (4 or 5 times so far).

I don’t think the intention was to never solve anything though.

Did you abandon public accounting entirely or are you now in a mixed role?

And because all those “stupid” people showed they were capable problem solvers not to be fucked with during wartime.

This motivated me to donate to his campaign again.

The article points out subsidies are one of the main contributors to growth in production of fossil fuels. So forget regulation, just take the government thumb off the scale in favor of fossil fuels.

This is somewhat disingenuous on my part as I am for using the government thumb if necessary to achieve goals that allow society to continue like a clean energy mix. However, maybe this could still be done in a light touch way like massive grants into basic research which I do think the US government has had success with in the past.

Fossil fuel could take part in this as well but from my perspective, they have never been interested in pursuing goals like efficiency and sustainability though innovation. They are driven by finding ways to create more demand for energy use and scaling up existing technology that is good enough for that purpose.

Reader view on iPhone gets past New York Times paywall for now

I have eventually started learning Python/Pandas but PowerQuery plus having good SQL knowledge delayed it quite a bit.

PowerQuery/Get&Transform makes it go an even longer way.

In some industries, licensing rules directly exclude new competitors; in other cases, regulations are complex enough that only the largest companies can afford to comply.

Not really a regulation but sales tax is a nightmare. We really need a consistent federal standard.

That is pretty much the nature of the beast with contractors; not another matter. If you don’t understand what they’re doing at some level, they’re probably just using you for billable hours. If for no other reason, they have other more demanding clients that actively manage them.

He does say This:

“Last point, I wrote the book in a kind of modern Kerouac's style such that you can download it once and continue reading it offline. Initial loading may be slow though.”

I do think the entire book is on a single HTML page

Usually I watch a YouTube video or two about what a plumber probably needs to do so I don’t get totally ripped off.

If a business does not have any understanding of the competencies mentioned in parent, they are at a huge risk of being ripped off by outsiders.
