    Any engineers out there?

    OFF-TOPIC 
    An EE! You guys always had the cooler math courses in my opinion. I've picked up a lot of it on my own time, but EE always looks like a lot of fun. Plugging away at my MSME, have a couple years left. Maybe there is hope for my PhD in the future :) Were you M.S. and PhD on similar topics, or...

    Hey Tom! Too bad about the job search (or maybe not so bad. You never know what the future holds, right?). The entry-level market is tough, a lot of my classmates from undergrad actually stayed for grad school to avoid the market. Quite a few never found engineering jobs. I'd agree with your...

    Any engineers out there?

    Or even other technical people! What discipline? Like it, hate it? What are you interests? Work for yourself, someone else (for now!), work doing something completely non-engineering? I'll start: I'm currently working on a Master's in Engineering (mechanical). I just love it; I'd do a PhD I...

    Observations of a Fastlane Forum Lurker and my idea/plan.

    IDEA 
    A little website like you're planning would probably be a good launch point for returns. Each sale will prob be stored somehow, right? Same database.

    Is this book crap or what???

    Well, except reading comprehension. Spotty track record there. (Kidding.) (Or am I?) (No I am). (Sort of) :P

    Small Pond - Massive Profit

    Just went and read about that, thanks. I've bought powders from them before in the past... Gotta make ya think--with warehouses full of other products were the ones with shady names (and garnering bad attention) really putting them over the top in profits? What with all the steroid hoopla in...

    How many of you would buy something like this.

    I have the perfect product idea. It will fit in your hand, and be a porous material so that it can hold water. I'm thinking make it out of some polymer, such as polyester or polyurethane, for durability & cost. What you'll do is when there's a spill... take said invention and saturate it with...

    I believe he meant something more vulgar than sucking up to rich people. For the record, logically you are not arguing apples to apples here. To say paying $300 for a live sporting event you could've watched at home or $30 for a movie at the cinema when you can wait for a DVD is not the same...

    HOT! 
    It depends what the assumptions are. I assume bottle service is inherently stupid. I wouldn't pay orders of magnitude more for a tank of gas just because I got it at a ritzy gas station. There's one alternative. If I had to bet, I'd put my money on them showing off. But you never know.

    how to make money from rich dumb people....

    HOT! 
    Just being frank. Someone mentioned they don't see how it's dumb. I think spending 100k+ on that bill is stupid in and of itself. Whether you can afford it or not doesn't change the fact that it's stupid. I'm sure they don't. However, those things cost a fraction of the money outside of that...

    Regardless of how you spin it, if you pay that much on soda and alcohol and it isn't giving you superpowers you're a F*cking idiot.

    Perusing the older video posts, the popup window that asks for an email address comes up on EVERY page. Is this by design because it slows the browsing experience wayyy down.

    Steve Jobs on why passion is important to your success

    In the context of the Confucius quote, I took Steve's talk of passion more generally. Passionate about WHAT? Designing devices? Or about having a vision of creating a huge technology company? About iPods, and iPads, and iPhones, and iTunes? Or passionate about changing the music industry, the...

    Impacting millions, unable to make a profit?

    Well, yes, some conclusions were made. Hence the comment. Critical thinking/evaluation is benefited by having some evidence to back it up. Your comment that we do not need facts and conclusions to have a discussion is completely valid. I agree. And in the context of your quoting me, I never...
