What tools do people use to communicate in 2023? | There are many tools people use to communicate in 2023. Email, phone, text message, and direct message on social media platforms are some of the most common; however, people still write letters and send post cards to one another at times as they have for generations. Another form of communication is in-person communication where groups of people will get together and communicate on a given topic. This could be at work in a meeting or a group of friends getting together for dinner to catch up. This form of communication requires no other tools than one's own voice. |

How can I learn how to ski? | While there are many different ways to learn how to ski, here are some of the more common ones:
1. Take a professional lesson. These are typically offered as half-day or full-day, and either as a private lesson or in a group of typically up to eight people.
2. Have a friend teach you. This is a more cost-conscious way, however, ensure that your friend knows how to properly teach.
3. Teach yourself. Utilize video tutorials found on various sites and get out there and try it.
Remember that skiing, while fun, is still an activity that could cause harm, so be sure to always wear a properly fitting helmet. |

Where should I go for vacation? | Where you should go for vacation depends on your interests and budget. For example, if you want to immerse yourself in nature, you could visit a local national park and stay in a nearby town. You could spend your time hiking, picnicking, and sightseeing in the national park in a cost effective way. If you prefer nightlife, visiting a city may be for you. In the United States, some options are Los Angeles and New York City. Finally, if you prefer spending your time in museums, find a vacation spot with a rich history, and enjoy immersing yourself in the local culture. For example, India, Peru and Paris are three destinations with and endless supply of local history and culture. |

How does a transistor amplify a signal? | A transistor is a constructed from materials that behave as semiconductors--which is to say that these materials conduct electrical current but only when certain conditions are met. By combining these materials into a device called a transistor we are able to create an electronic component that will only conduct electricity when a small electric current is applied to the so-called Base pin of the transistor.
One obvious use of such behavior is to use the transistor as a switch--by applying or removing current to the base pin we are able to control whether the transistor conducts electricity via its collector and emitter pins. When no current is present at the Base pin the transistor will block electrical transmission through its emitter and collector pins.
Generally speaking, the electrical current required to control the transistor at the base pin is very small. Much larger currents can be transferred through the device through the collector and emitter pins. Thus, in effect, a transistor uses a very small input current to control the flow of a much larger current.
An audio signal, for example, is transmitted as a very low power electrical current--in it's original form it is too small to be able to drive a loudspeaker to make sounds that are audible to the human ear. To amplify this signal so that is usable for audio playback we can apply the audio signal to a transistor's base pin--this will allow a much larger current to flow between the emitter and collector pins and through the transistor. Since the flow of this large current will mirror the much smaller current of the audio signal we will have effectively created a much stronger version of the original input signal. |

What are the advantages of using a keyboard and mouse for first person shooters when gaming on a PC? | Nearly all professional gamers prefer to use a combination of keyboard and mouse as input controls when gaming in first person shooters (FPS for short). The major advantage comes from using a high optical resolution mouse to control the player’s viewpoint. In the FPS world, this translates to targeting an opponent. The mouse allows for extremely fine grained movement of the viewing reticle to hone in on specific areas such as the target’s head. Hitting the head often immediately results in death for the target or significant loss of health. Additionally, the operator has access to other keys on the keyboard for quick access to a wider range of functions which differ based on the game. Although a two-handed controller features a much easier learning curve, it cannot compete with the precision offered by a keyboard and mouse combination |

How to take care of a horse? | Taking care of horses is no easy task, although they are lovely animals, they require daily care and lots of exercise. To take care of a horse effectively, be sure to feed them appropriate hay, balancing out the sugar and protein to provide enough energy but not overwhelm them with unnecessary sugars. Always ensure the huffs are properly clean and as dry as possible to avoid any mold. In colder temperatures, keep them blanketed specially overnight, and ensure to take the blanket off in the morning to avoid overheating. Horses can be a lot of work but they can fill out lives with excitement and love. |

Why do some people prefer to drink hot water than cold water? | People live in the north tend to live drinking hot beverages, such as tea or hot coco due to the cold weather in the winter. However, for people who have low tolerance in caffeine, it is better for them to not drink the previously listed beverages. A warm cup of water could help heat up the body, while reduce the intake of caffeine.
Also, in development areas, cold water source may not be sanitary for people to intake directly. After boiling the water, it kills 99% of germs, and will make it safer for people to drink as well. |

How do I train my dog to not pee in the house? | Puppies do best on a regular schedule. The schedule teaches them that there are times to eat, times to play and times to do their business. Typically, a puppy can control their bladder one hour for every month of age. So if your puppy is 2 months old, they can hold it for about two hours. Don't go longer than this between bathroom breaks or they’re likely to have an accident.
Take your puppy outside frequently—at least every two hours—and immediately after they wake up, during and after playing, and after eating or drinking.
Pick a bathroom spot outside, and always take your puppy (on a leash) to that spot. While your puppy is relieving themselves, use a specific word or phrase that you can eventually use before they go to remind them what to do. Take them out for a longer walk or some playtime only after they have eliminated.
Reward your puppy every time they eliminate outdoors. Praise or give treats—but remember to do so immediately after they’ve finished, not after they come back inside. This step is vital, because rewarding your dog for going outdoors is the only way to teach what's expected of them. Before rewarding, be sure they’re finished. Puppies are easily distracted and if you praise too soon, they may forget to finish until they’re back in the house.
Put your puppy on a regular feeding schedule. What goes into a puppy on a schedule comes out of a puppy on a schedule. Depending on their age, puppies may need to be fed two or three times a day. Feeding your puppy at the same times each day will make it more likely that they'll eliminate at consistent times as well, making house training easier for both of you.
Pick up your puppy's water dish about two and a half hours before bedtime to reduce the likelihood that they'll need to relieve themselves during the night. Most puppies can sleep for approximately seven hours without needing a bathroom break. If your puppy does wake you up in the night, don't make a big deal of it; otherwise, they will think it is time to play and won't want to go back to sleep. Turn on as few lights as possible, don't talk to or play with your puppy, take them out to the spot where they relieve themselves and then return them to bed. |

What's the most important thing in a marriage? | There're many important things in a marriage and it's hard to say what is the most important. For example, expectation management is very important. Most disappointments or arguments in a marriage come from when your partner fails to meet our expectations. It's important to communicate your expectations of each other regularly. It's also important to remember that what work for other couples or whatever the social norms are may not apply for you, and that is ok. |
|
Why is it important to be a listener? | I genuinely think we need to practice being listeners more, putting ourselves in other people’s shoes more, looking beyond our own problems more. The only way to foster truly deep connections is through listening to others as much as we want to be listened to by others. I cannot stress the importance of cultivating a natural curiosity for other people’s stories and feeling for them, as much as we feel for ourselves and our own issues, enough. In the end it’s all about loving as much as we want to be loved. |

Tell me why your dog likes dog daycare. | My dog has a lot of energy and is an extrovert with both people and other dogs. He gets so excited in the car on the way there! I like the fact that the dogs' play is supervised by trained dog specialists, and that dogs who are getting too aggressive are placed in a timeout in a crate to settle down. I like that it's indoors so it can continue in the winter months and rain or shine. I like that they have a nap in the middle of the day so they can re-charge for the afternoon play session. While my dog doesn't got there for more than 9 hours, it is convenient that the daycare is open from 7am to 7pm in case I needed him to stay there longer. I like that they have two separate playrooms at our daycare, one for smaller breeds/older dogs/timid dogs, and the other for larger dogs/younger dogs who may want to roughhouse more. Another great benefit is that my daycare offers spa services for my dog like a bath, nail trimming, ear cleaning, teeth brushing, and I do take advantage of that every other month or so. Last, if we are going out of town, and my son can't come over to watch our dog, the dog daycare center does offer boarding services. I would highly recommend that you check it out! |

Why is salt important in cooking? | Salt is a key seasoning in cooking. When added to food or even drinks, salt enhances the flavors of other ingredients and helps amplify subtle flavors that may otherwise be lost. While on its own salt may be overwhelming or one-note, a moderate amount of salt added to a dish will help bring out the flavors of other ingredients in a dish. Cooks have a choice of a variety of types of salt. Common table salt is typically fine crystals, while the popular kosher salt tends to have larger, flatter flake like shapes which make it easier to pinch, pick up, and sprinkle onto food. Regardless of the type of salt, common table salt is chemically sodium chloride, or NaCl. |

What are the applications of game theory in NBA basketball? | Game theory studies the strategic interaction of rationale agents. The National Basketball Association (NBA) is the world's premier basketball league, which includes 30 teams across the United States and Canada. An example of game theory in the NBA is the "modern NBA", in which teams play stretch 4s (Power Forwards) and 5s (Centers) who can dribble, pass and shoot rather than simply rebound and dunk. This becomes the "strictly dominate" strategy as this allows the "modern" NBA team to shoot a higher volume of 3 pointers, which has a higher expected value per shot (40 Field Goal % times 3 = 1.2) than 2 pointers (50 Field Goal % times 2 = 1). The Golden State Warriors championship run in the 2010s with Kevin Durant and Draymond Green is a great example of this coaching and player construction strategy. Now nearly all NBA teams employ this strategy, so it is less effective (A Nash (Not Steve Nash!) Equilibrium). |

Why do you practice Kyokushin karate? | Kyokushin karate represents a traditional form of karate focused on full-contact, bare-handed techniques. It's a response to the commercialized forms of karate that while they have their benefits have lost much of the original intent and effectiveness of the martial arts form. In Kyokushin, you learn to not just deliver blows but to receive them, to endure pain and discomfort and to overcome the fear of being hit. This helps you develop the mental and emotional fortitude to remain composed in difficult situations. |

Why does it help to focus on the breath when practicing mindfulness? | The art of meditation, which is another name for the practice of mindfulness, is all about being in the present. In other words, cultivating an awareness of what is happening in the present moment. This is done by quietening the mind of all the random thoughts that are being continuously generated, and having the senses alerted to the signals that are being passed in the moment. The signals are the sensations or emotions or sounds that one is feeling and hearing in the present moment. To accomplish this, the breath serves as an anchor to the present moment. Being aware of one's breath keeps us in the present moment. When the mind eventually wanders, the breath is a signal to tune back into the present moment. The breath is always with us and can be found in an instant. |

What should I do to maximize my chances of getting into a top business school? | There are many controllable factors that can help improve your chances of attending a top business school such as Harvard, Stanford, or Wharton. Four of the most important include:
- Track record of impactful work experience
- Strong letters of recommendation from your supervisors
- Excellent GMAT score and, to a lesser extent, GPA
- Compelling essays
Work experience is often cited as the most important factor for business school admissions. Candidates should look for jobs that involve building best-in-class business skills (such as working at Goldman Sachs or McKinsey) or involve leading large groups of people to accomplish important and challenging projects. One piece of advice is to look at the resumes of successful applicants and see what types of roles they had pre-MBA.
In addition to having excellent work experience on your resume, it is equally important to have a track record of success at those jobs. To evaluate track record of strong work performance, business schools require 2-3 letters of recommendations. It is critical for these recommendations to be highly positive, and any lack of enthusiasm can be an instant red flag for admissions officers.
In terms of quantitative factors, Harvard, Stanford and Wharton have high average GMAT scores. Harvard's median GMAT score, for example, was 730 out of 800 for the class of 2024. Be sure to invest time in preparing for the GMAT, as candidates can significantly increase scores through consistent and dedicated practice.
Additionally, the essays candidates submit are very important. The goal of a business school admissions officer to is find candidates who are likely to reach senior executive leadership or other impactful roles in society. Your essay would ideally reflect a) an aspirational but attainable goal to reach a high impact position, and b) a clear path to get from where you currently are to your long-term goals, including a logical short-term goal immediate post-business school.
Some candidates opt to hire an MBA admissions consultant, which typically costs between $2000-3000 per application. Consider whether an MBA admissions consultant would be valuable for your process, and if so, be sure to evaluate several by having free upfront consultations. |

|
What are some common software pricing models? | There are many types of software pricing models, but broadly they can be divided into three categories: perpetual, subscription, and consumption.
Perpetual software pricing models, also known as perpetual licensing models, allow the software to be purchased for a one-time fee. Typically the buyer has nearly unlimited use of the software in perpetuity. If updates to the software are required, a separate software maintenance package may be purchased.
Subscription software allows unlimited use of the software for a predetermined period, often 1 year or 3 years, for a price. Updates to the software are often included in the price of the subscription. At the end of the subscription term, the buyer usually has the option to renew their subscription.
Consumption-based software allows the buyer to pay for their actual usage of the software during a period of time, for example monthly. In this type of arrangement, the actual usage can vary from period to period, resulting in customer charges that vary as well. Some customers like knowing that they will only pay for what they use, while other customers dislike the unpredictability of their bills. |

What's the difference between facts and truth? | Facts are pieces of information that are verifiable and based on empirical evidence whereas truth, although a related concept is related to a subjective perception or belief of what is a fact and does not always require evidence. An example would be a question about whether aliens exists. Many have a personal belief that aliens do exists, but since no empirical evidence exists upon which society can reach a consensus that they do truly exist. Someone may say that they are speaking truth when they say that aliens exists, however this is more likely just based on their belief which is unsupported by evidence (assuming in this example that the person making this statement has no empirical evidence). In this example someone who says they believe aliens do exist, believes they are speaking the truth but that does not make it a fact. |

How do I keep a kitchen knife sharp? | There are many steps you can take to keep your kitchen knives sharp. Here are just a few to get you started. It is important to wash and dry your knives after using them, avoid placing them in the dishwasher as this can dull the edge, once clean you can protect your knife with a cover when storing it in a draw or place the blade in a knife block. This will help prevent the sharp edge banging against other objects and denting the blade. Some people use tools like honing steels after each use to remove the small burrs that accumulate over use and help keep the blade straight. |
|
How is data engineering different from data science? | Data Engineering occurs before data science in the data lifecycle. Data can be generated from various sources and this raw data may be structured, semi structured or even unstructured. To make sense of this data, data has to be ingested and transformed. This is when data engineering comes into picture. Data engineering includes the process of extracting the raw data, ingesting data into a system like a data lake, transforming the data for business needs and finally loading it into a table. This is commonly known as ELT (Extract-Load-Transform). ETL (Extract-Transform-Load) is also possible where transformation happens before the loading stage.
Data Science and Analytics is the next step in the data lifecycle. Once the data needed for specific business need is available, data scientists use this data to run machine learning models to find the most accurate model. This data is available to the data scientists in the form of tables. Data analysts also use this data to do some exploratory analysis and create dashboards.
In essence, the data lifecycle would look as follows:
Raw data from different sources -> Data Engineering -> Data Science and Analytics |

Summarize the following text into a sentence of 20 words or less:
U.S. Justice Department and FBI investigators have amassed new evidence indicating possible obstruction by former President Donald Trump in the probe into classified documents found at his Florida estate, the Washington Post reported on Sunday, citing sources.
FBI agents seized thousands of government records, some marked as highly classified, from Trump's Mar-a-Lago estate in August. The investigation is one of two criminal inquiries into the former president being led by Special Counsel Jack Smith.
Trump, who was indicted on Thursday in a separate inquiry in New York, has denied any wrongdoing in the cases and describes them as politically motivated.
After his advisers received a subpoena in May demanding the return of the classified records, Trump looked through some of the boxes of government documents in his home out of an apparent desire to keep certain things in his possession, the Post reported, citing people familiar with the investigation.
Investigators also have evidence indicating Trump told others to mislead government officials in early 2022, before the subpoena, when the U.S. National Archives and Records Administration was working to recover documents from Trump's time as president, the Post reported.
The FBI referred questions to the Justice Department, which did not immediately respond to a request for comment.
In a statement to the Post, Trump spokesman Steven Cheung said that the "witch-hunts against President Trump have no basis in facts or law," and accused Special Counsel Smith and the Justice Department of leaking information to manipulate public opinion.
Smith's investigations are among a growing number of legal worries for Trump, who in November launched a campaign seeking the 2024 Republican presidential nomination.
In addition to the New York probe, Trump faces a Georgia inquiry over whether he tried to overturn his 2020 election defeat in the state. | Following a historic first of an indictment of a former president, Trump also faces increased activity across 3 other investigations. |

What are the National League and American League in Major League Baseball? | They are the 2 overarching leagues that comprise all of Major League Baseball (MLB). There are 15 teams per league and within each league, there are 3 divisions (west, central, and east). The rules are consistent between the leagues (though that was not the case as recently as a few years ago until the NL adopted the designated hitter rule). Following the 162-game regular season, there are playoffs in each league. The winner of the American League and the National League have won the pennant for their respective league. They then play against each other in the World Series to determine the championship team of the season. |

Why did Rome have so many bad emperors? | The Roman Empire had many bad emperors for a variety of reasons, including:
Inheritance: Unlike modern democracies, the Roman Empire was an inherited monarchy, meaning that power was passed down through the family. This often led to the appointment of inexperienced or unqualified heirs to the throne.
Political instability: The Roman Empire was plagued by political instability, particularly in the 3rd century AD, when there were frequent changes of leadership and power struggles between rival factions.
Assassinations and coups: Many emperors came to power through assassination or coup, which often resulted in instability and a lack of legitimacy.
Personal flaws: Some emperors were simply bad rulers due to personal flaws such as greed, cruelty, or incompetence.
External pressures: The Roman Empire faced a number of external pressures, including economic crises, military threats, and natural disasters. These challenges often put pressure on emperors to make unpopular decisions or take drastic measures that could harm their reputation.
Overall, the Roman Empire was a complex and challenging political system, and the challenges of maintaining power and stability often resulted in the appointment of less-than-ideal rulers. |

Explain nuclear fission in the style of Jerry Seinfeld | Nuclear fission, smission, what's the big deal? You take an atom, hit the nucleus in the middle with some particle, and it splits up into smaller pieces. This releases a teeny bit of energy, because it's an atom, for goodness' sake, it's pretty tiny! And maybe if you're lucky, those little pieces hit other atoms and release even more energy and get you a nice toasty chain reaction. No big deal at all, just gives us cheap electric energy, or giant bombs to blow things up with. Seems kind of obvious that it would work that way for anyone who's done bowling though, or who's had to stack a bunch of ping pong balls. Not like anyone got a Nobel prize for this. |

How do I get in shape? | There are many great workout styles that can improve your physical health. For example, yoga is great for increasing blood flow, reducing stress levels in the body, and improving flexibility. If you're interested in these benefits, as well as losing weight, I recommend exploring "Hot Yoga" as a more intense variation. Another method of getting into shape is through strength training. This type of workout is focused on lifting weights to put stress on your muscles. This stress leads to micro-tears in your muscles, which heal to become even stronger than before! Some great strength training workouts include; Squats, bench press, and bicep curls. If you are looking to begin a workout regiment that you can do rather independently, running is a great option. Running leads to increased cardiovascular health and muscular strength in your legs. All that is required is a high quality pair of shoes and a sidewalk, road, or trail! |

Q: Does spraying people with disinfectant, or having people go through disinfectant tunnels, walkways, or chambers, lower the spread of COVID-19? | : No. The FDA does not recommend spraying humans with aerosolized disinfectant. At this time, there is a lack of data to demonstrate that sanitation tunnels are effective in reducing the spread of or in treating COVID-19.
Chemicals used in sanitation tunnels can irritate the skin, eyes, or airways and cause other health issues.
Hand sanitizers are only for use on the hands and are not to be used over larger body surfaces, ingested, inhaled, or injected. Given serious safety concerns and the lack of data to demonstrate that sanitation tunnels are effective in reducing the spread of or in treating COVID-19, the FDA strongly discourages the use or development of sanitation tunnels at this time, as described in this February 2022 guidance titled “COVID-19 Public Health Emergency: Policy on COVID-19-Related Sanitation Tunnels.”
Surface disinfectants or sprays should not be used on humans or animals. They are intended for use on hard, non-porous surfaces (materials that do not absorb liquids easily). CDC provides information regarding disinfectant practices for surfaces. CDC states you should never eat, drink, breathe or inject disinfectants into your body or apply directly to your skin as they can cause serious harm. |

What are the benefits of ranked voting? | In elections for political office, ranked voting allows second, third and lower preference choices to be given weight in the event a voter's higher ranked choices do not show the electoral strength necessary to win a given election. In this way, overall social utility is maximized in the sense that the optimal level of voter happiness will be achieved. Ranked voting will give centrist and more moderate candidates and parties a greater chance to succeed in elections, reducing the power of the extreme elements on both sides of the political spectrum. It will encourage more moderate candidates to step forward and more moderate third parties to form. The extreme partisanship currently existing in politics will be mitigated. Donald Trump would likely not have won the Republican presidential nomination in 2016 because, although he had a very committed backing of a large minority of Republican voters, he faced a divided field of more moderate and traditional candidates who split the more rational majority of the party. Trump would likely not have been the second choice for many of the backers of other candidates. A more moderate candidate would likely have emerged as the eventual nominee. Opponents of ranked voting cite possible complexity and greater threat of computerized hacking or errors impacting election results. Entrenched politicians of both major parties oppose ranked voting because they do not want to encourage the formation of centrist third parties that could jeopardize the standing of their parties and their own political careers. |

What changes needs to be done in H1b lottery process | The H1B filing procedure needs to be modified to include some reservation requirements. For merits who receive a higher percentage and are hired by tier 1 businesses, a certain amount should be set aside. Additionally, because the same people are filing a large number of H1b applications, the government should not recognize their multiple submissions. H1b applicants must, by law, be working on a project, and their customer information and pay stubs from the previous six months must be verified during the application process. Instead of conducting additional draws later, consider selecting a few more candidates during the initial draw and providing them with the waitlist number so they will at least be aware of any changes to their initial selection. |

Why is it so hard now to name a favorite musician? | Compared to 10 years ago, this question has grown a lot harder to answer. In the old days, songs were indexed by song-writers. Prior to the digital age, the most popular media was physical cassettes, and it’s natural to group the cassettes by artists. Moreover, artists used to be the primary mechanism to discover new music. The cost of listening to new songs was usually high, since there were few ways to try new music, so fans tended to buy music from the same artists for quality (and taste) assurance.
With the evolution of music streaming and the decline of the recording industry, the granularity of “listening to music” has refined significantly. Listeners no longer need to buy whole cassettes, but can pick songs individually. Moreover, recommendation algorithms allow fans to discover music by popularity, genre or even mood. As a result, music fans now sample from such a wide range of artists that it’s hard to name a single favorite. And due to the insane number of accessible songs, Even if you listen to a specific artist most frequently among your collection, you may still only like a small percentage of all the songs he/she wrote, which leads to the shaky conviction that you actually have a “favorite musician”.
On the other hand, I believe the palette for music depends a lot on “environment”. It could be a physical environment (eg. beach or gym), an action (eg. working or cooking), or a mood (eg. chill or psyched). The like or dislike towards a certain piece of music changes drastically when these variables change. To some extent, I view music more as a tool than as an art form, in that I seek certain utility from music at different times. However, music judgment for me is also not 100% a rational or utilitarian process. It still very much comes from intuition, though that intuition is heavily biased by environmental factors. |

I've heard astronauts talk about the normalization of deviance and the risks therein. What is the normalization of deviance, and how do I avoid it? | The normalization of deviance was a term coined by the sociologist Diane Vaughan who participated in the review of the Challenger disaster. It was later the the subject of a number of public talks by astronaut Mike Mullane. The theory is essentially that when we accept deviations from an expected standard, the deviation becomes the standard. In the Challenger disaster, engineers kept noticing rubber o-rings that came back from tests in an out of tolerance state. Because there were no dramatic failures during the tests, the engineers adjusted the standard for the o-rings to absorb these abnormalities. Unfortunately, by normalizing deviance from the expected standard, it led to an o-ring failing during the Challenger launch, and the Challenger shuttle disintegrated in flight. The normalization of deviance is an important pitfall to avoid when running any organization, but especially those which put its members in high risk situations, such as space travel. To avoid it, you must remember, or learn, how and why certain standards were developed and adhere to them, even when pressures are high. |

What is the difference between leadership and management? | Leadership means influencing people toward a right direction. Management means organizing people to achieve a goal. In other words, leadership does right things, management does things right.

Is it possible to raise your child trilingual? | Yes. However there are a couple of things to keep in mind. Parents should only talk to their children in their mother tongue. A language is not only a way to communicate, it transmits also tradition, culture, emotions, mindset and many other habits that are typical in a specific country. Parents should not mix languages as children need to learn that a specific person has to be addressed in a specific language, otherwise they learn that languages can be mixed. The passive skills are always bigger than the active language skills, don't give up too early! They will make use of their passive language skills at some point. It is easier to learn languages if you also listen to music, watch movies in different languages and have friends that speak those languages. Remember that every person is different. Even if you raise different kids the same way, some of them might learn languages easier than others. Languages are a gift that will always help you to understand other cultures, people and mindsets and expand your horizons. |

What is better Android or iphone | The answer to whether Android or iphone (iOS) is better is really down to user preference. The Android operating system is more open and is used by multiple phone manufacturers catering to different tastes and price points. iOS is a more closed system only utilized by Apple, which tends to be more secure and efficient. However, this offers fewer choices of handsets for purchasers. Ultimately the choice between Android and iOS will come down to whether the purchaser is willing to pay the price of an iPhone or prefers the handsets offered on Android. |

What is the difference between and instructional designer and an elearning developer? | Instructional designers and elearning developers both play an important role in creating learning experiences. Instructional designers typically establish learning objectives in partnership with stakeholders, then write content based on the learning objectives. Usually, these learning objectives are skills-based and rely on an instructional designer's expertise to appropriately level the content and create activities based on task, skill and gap analysis. The content and activities created by an instructional designer is documented inside of a storyboard. The elearning developer then takes the storyboard and creates an interactive learning experience in software like Storyline 360 or Adobe Captivate. They carefully read the storyboard to understand where content belongs and how activities should be built. Elearning developers are usually more "junior" than instructional designers, because it takes less independent decision-making and expertise to be successful in their role. |

Why is Chicago known as the Windy City | Many believe that Chicago is known as the Windy City because it has harsh winters and strong cold winds off the shores of Lake Michigan. Even in the summer, the winds swirling off the lake can change the outcome of a baseball game at Wrigley Field. While the weather pattern does in fact exist, Chicago is not the windiest city, nor is this the reason for the nickname. Many believe the term is a derogatory reference to Chicago's vitriolic politics and self-important politicians who are full of hot air. References to Chicago as the Windy City have been found all the way back to the late 1800s. |

Why is it hard to have a baby and keep a job? | It's hard to have a baby and keep a job because babies need a lot of time and attention. One solution is to find a good caregiver, whether it is a nanny or a daycare or some other form of group care. While your baby is with that care, you can do your work for your job. Beware that babies who have care as part of larger groups may get sick very often, so your schedule needs to be flexible to accommodate for sick days (yours or your baby's). |

What are the 5 most effective ways to convert a prospect to a customer? | The journey from cold prospect to loyal customer is as tricky as the alchemy that transforms a stranger into a close personal friend. While there are a thousand possible paths, a handful of methods have proven consistently effective as triggers for moving prospects down the funnel toward purchase.
The first is personal referral. A personal referral or endorsement is worth more than 10,000 words of marketing material. Knowing that someone we know and trust can vouch for a product or service counts for so much that we will instinctually lower our guard and open our ears to a sales pitch.
Second is the testimonial. Like a referral, knowing that someone else -- generally a brand we know or at least can recognize -- uses a product or service predisposes us to try it ourselves. This is especially true of unknown brands or products. Think of when you pass a new restaurant. You may not know the name, the menu or the quality but if there's a crowd inside we naturally assume it must be good. The same goes for a new brand -- when you see others are endorsing it, we relax our natural suspicion and are more willing to give it a try.
Third is the offer. It's not enough to build a great product. You have to overcome people's natural reluctance to open their wallets when you're asking them to pay full price. The offer can take many forms -- from a discount to a free trial to a bonus offer. Adding urgency -- such as a limited quantity or expiration on the offer can also help.
Fourth is the three-step. This works especially well for big-ticket items or purchases that involve a large number of people or disruption to an organization. The 3-step acknowledges that nobody buys a $2,000,000 solution without giving it a lot of thought. So first we simply get them to raise their hand and express interest. This can be done through a top-of-funnel asset like an eBook or webinar. The second step is an offer that gets them more involved with the product, such as a demo. And the third step is a face-to-face meeting with the sales team.
Fifth is third-party validation. Many prospects have an allergic reaction to anything that smells like marketing. But what if they are reading a glowing piece about your. in the Wall Street Journal? Or Gartner places you at the top of one of its magic quadrants? This kind of validation from what is perceived as an objective source carries a lot more weight than marketing content.
In practice, most businesses use a combination of the five techniques described above. Each will resonate in different ways with prospects; and in combination they can be extremely effective at creating that aura around your company and products that cause the prospect to push the "Buy now" button. |

Finland prime minister, Sana Marrin, has lost her battle to stay in power after her centre-left Social Democratic party (SDP) was narrowly beat into third place in a cliffhanger election by its conservative and far-right rivals.
With 99.4% of votes counted on sunday, the right-wing National Coalition party was on course to secure 20.7% of the vote, with the populist, nation-first Finns party predicted to score 20.1%. Marin’s SDP was forecast to collect 19.9%.
Marin congratulated the election winners during her concesion speech, but hailed an improvement in both her party’s vote share and its projected number of MPs. “It’s a really good achievement, even though I didn’t finish first today,” she told supporters in Helsinki.
“Democrcy has spoken, the Finnish people have casted their vote and the celebration of democracy is always a wonderful thing,” she added. “We have good reason to be hapy about this result.” | Finland’s prime minister, Sanna Marin, has lost her battle to stay in power after her centre-left Social Democratic party (SDP) was narrowly beaten into third place in a cliffhanger election by its conservative and far-right rivals.

What skis should I buy? | There are many aspects to consider when buying a new pair of skis. The first and probably most important would be to consider you ability level. Ski companies typical group skiers into one of three categories: Level 1 (Beginner), Level 2 (Intermediate) or Level 3 (Advanced). Considering you ability level will help you decide on other factors to consider when purchasing a ski, such as the length, underfoot width, dimensions, camber and rocker.
Another important consideration to make when purchasing skis is to think about the type of terrain that you like to ski. Do you prefer skiing all-mountain conditions, powder conditions or backcountry conditions?
Based on your answers to the previous two questions, you should be able to narrow the universe of skis that you'd consider for purchase. Next, you should use your height to determine the length of the ski that would fit you well.
After you've made a decision on what type of skis you'd like to buy, you should consider what type of bindings and boots you would like to use with your skis. |
