Twitter says he posted that at 5:26 AM, not 8:26 AM.

And I'm pretty sure Lockheed Martin is still right next to Moffett, as well as the SV campus of Carnegie Mellon. I think there might be too much going on in this little strip of land to completely discount aerospace.

I read The Strange Last Voyage of Donald Crowhurst in high school, and can recommend that as well.

How do they employ almost 300 people on $11 mil / year?

Also, why are these posts getting downvoted? The title of this article is "How We Make Money at Stack Overflow".

Yeah, that's kind of the problem.

Not sure why this is controversial. Boilers have an on/off switch, and when your company manages a large number of buildings, you automate and centralize on/off for efficiency's sake, no?

Doesn't he mean executive orders? I believe those are considered law, while executive actions are simply directional.

EDIT: Never mind, he said ...cancel every unconstitutional executive action, memorandum and order issued by President Obama.

Does anyone know if this -

Enacts new ethics reforms to drain the swamp and reduce the corrupting influence of special interests on our politics.

...means overturning Citizens United? Because if it doesn't, then this is just propaganda.

Burlington, PA has been the biggest red dot on the map for the past 20 minutes or so. That's another story I'd like to learn about.

-> I mean, come on. Everyone uses email.

Not actually. I've been a consultant for a few years now, and have worked with executives who have their assistants print out their email for them in order to review. It isn't limited to Wall Street.

Though it's probably something we'll see less and less of as the years go by.
