I have this problem and in my case it started before I moved to United States. I went to same school when I was a kid until age of 12. Then I went to a private high school in a different town where studied for 5 years and it felt like I made a lot of friends there. After that I went to college in a different country and studied there for 6 years where I also made a ton of friends. Then in my mid twenties I moved to United States and initially it felt like I had made a lot of friends during my first few years in the States but pretty much nobody from my college or high school years were in touch with me by then. After I got married, it felt like I lost most of my friends that I had made. Being married was very lonely and I got divorced and moved to another state. I worked at different places and had normal relationships with people but after I switch jobs I noticed that nobody stays in touch. I'm getting closer to my 40s and I am thinking a lot about this problem that apparently I have but I can't point out what am I doing wrong. I am not rude to anyone and don't have bad habits or other negative things that are obvious to me but I do wonder what is the cause of this.
less than 20 years ago and that's very recent in war terms. the same (failed) excuse wont be used again because its always better to fabricate something new thats not related to the last one which turned out to be not true.
fun fact: amex online banking wont let you use exclamation mark ! but allows question sign ? amex foreign exchange website does exactly the opposite. apple and amex is why my 1 password to rule them all routine got destroyed and now i just trust chrome to generate and remember passwords and rely on my Google account to carry them across devices
Square had similar program called Square Capital. I actually didn't make the last 2 paymenta totaling around $2500 and they stopped emailing me after a while. No collections nothing
Just another gimmick bullshit to show when opposing right the repair. Few weeks ago Apple started blocking battery replacements in iPhones, even original ones swapped from another original iphone.
uber is making money from almost all of the rides and they keep around 35% to themselves. uber has 22000 people (not including drivers) working for it while facebook has 37000. all of Facebook's apps and underlying tech have been tremendously evolving and developing for years which can't be said about uber's app or their tech in general. uber will become profitable when they shed at least half of their employees at which point they will become just like Groupon or Zynga.
I grew up on Caspian shore. Article says shortage began in the 70s but I would say, from my observation of my father who was a fisherman, even in the 90s there was a lot of sturgeon in Caspian. We would have buckets of caviar at home being prepared for sale. The area we lived in was poor but people always had caviar on the table for breakfast. Also, the article says sturgeon doesn't need to go upstream in freshwater rivers to lay its eggs but it still does, the river Samur near us used to have sturgeon going up. Locals would catch sturgeon and would try to hold the belly hole of the pregnant fish because caviar would start dripping. Nowadays I rarely hear local fisherman catching any sturgeon with caviar, only industrial fishery companies are able to do that and sell 250 gram can of caviar for $100
not for American market. average car tanks takes 30-50 dollars of gas. markup on gas prices is really small around 15%. if sold at market prices profit from each delivery will be 4-6 dollars. cost of delivery will be around $20-30 dollars when you count driver salary, truck lease, fuel, etc.
Fuel delivery has been done in US profitably for very long time. its delivery of heating oil to houses but during every delivery they sell a few hundred gallons of oil and thats when the low margins start adding up, $40 delivery won't cut it.
climate change is caused by activities of large corporations but your solution
is regular people
changing diet? it's like suggesting people start driving 2 cylinder cars with AC off while fleet of largest ship companies create more co2 than all cars combined.
you want to stop climate change? do the following:
-stop cutting down forests.
-stop drilling in arctic
-stop oil spills
-stop overfishing
list goes on and all of these things are done by large corporations with approval of governments. leave regular people alone, the capitalist system has strangled them enough already.
just shows how much YC applicant evaluation sucks. Thanks to the community comprised mostly of other rejects YC was able to realize their mistake and fund this awesome company.
