When you say "For each Glo Dollar in circulation, there's at least $1 of cash and/or US Treasuries" do you mean that you hold in reserve (in your own accounts) $1 of US cash or Treasury bonds? For instance, say you sell a $100 of your coins, do you then take that money and immediately invest it bonds (using the interest received on those bonds as your profit)? Or are you taking the interest on those bonds and reinvesting that into something with a higher yield?

That is a nice tool. I certainly think the graphs are visually appealing. I do respect the $39 upfront fee as opposed to (yet another) subscription service.

However, personally, I don't think I would purchase a subscription or an upfront license unless the app could provide something more... perhaps some way to further customize the image or fonts. For the most part, aesthetically pleasing graphs are not a major pain point for me especially when Excel or Python can generate something "good enough." If the objective of the app is to provide better visualization for casual users, perhaps some clustering or dimensionality reduction features (e.g. tSNE) might deliver value. Error bars would certainly be nice too. Just some thoughts.

Overall, I think you made a very visually appealing app that does what it says it does.

As someone who has gone from engineering grad school to law school and then got an MBA, I can't say I would recommend the MBA unless you do not have any technical skills or have no sense of direction when it comes to basic business and accounting concepts. If you can read a 10K report and get a good idea of the health of a company, then you will be more competent than many MBA graduates.

In addition, there are so many MBA programs out there that are basically scams to separate you from your money. Your MBA will only be as respected as the school is. As many of the comments allude to, the main purpose of the MBA is to network and show employers that you are ready to "play the game." Your mileage you get out of the degree (when it comes to employment) is pretty much directly proportional to the rank of the school.

However, there are some instances where an MBA makes sense. Sometimes, individuals looking for a career change or to get an internal promotion/raise will use an MBA program to pivot since it gives you two years to make a seamless transition on your resume.

If you are looking to go back to school to obtain some skills to better build your business, I would recommend going to law school over getting an MBA. From my personal experience, I would say that law school provided me with more pertinent information about running a business than my MBA. While law school is far more rigorous than an MBA program, it would certainly be worth your time if you can get the score to get into a good one. There is a reason why many successful founders have law degrees. I think it is because law classes teach you not only to think clearly but also to think about contingencies -- skills that are essential to building a business. You will also be surrounded by intelligent, hyper-driven people which creates an interesting atmosphere, to say the least.

I just tested the platform out. I am really impressed by the results of a search for papers regarding protein inhibitors for the treatment of cancer. I actually was able to find at least 4 new informative papers that gave good insights to my research.

I am impressed because I have spent roughly 3 months researching this topic on Science Direct and PubMed and I did not expect your engine to turn up anything new. To this point, in less than six minutes, your search engine was able to give me more relevant search results than probably a week of searching Science Direct.

Great work!

(oh yeah, I know people are commenting about the interface, but I actually like the clean look of the search results. It is the home page that leaves something to be desired)
