Comment What about combined with WFH? (Score 1) 280

If you combine this with work from home then is it viable? You have desks that serve a portion of the employees at site and then any are free to work from home part time and when they come into the office they grab a hot desk. Add on some general coffee bar and other common areas to fill it out along with conference rooms and breakout rooms.

Comment They keep missing the goal... (Score 1) 444

The point of the test is to provide a metric of the students technical aptitude. The point of an admissions essay is to get an idea of their life, their goals, their obstacles and what hardships they are overcoming to be the best person they can. Let's not cross the two, that's just misplaced and backwards.

Comment Last o' the month... (Score 1) 163

The last week of everything month is me closely watching consumption and yelling at the kids (and myself) to keep it under Comcast's 1TB. Under normal use we are just at the limit but occasionally we'd go over but 100gb without cutting back. Game downloads on Xbox seem to be another issue. Even if it's a physical copy the "patch" is still almost a full 100gig download. Sadly the only offerings are "no cap at double the price" or "enjoy your 1TB."

Comment because I don't want to buy all new releases... (Score 1) 186

I collect music. Lots of it. I re-listen over and over. For movies though I am typically a "single watch" person except for my all time favorites. Netflix DVD makes it where I can watch these (within a reasonable release delay) without having to own them. Many of these would take years to find their way into streaming so my choices are buy it or Netflix DVD. That's still the primary use I have of Netflix. I stream their original content but I use DVDs for all else.
