Not-for-profit versus for-profit economy
Not-for-profit versus for-profit economy
01/07/2004 04:28 PMToday's Boston Globe carries two contrasting front-page
stories. "As economy gains, outsourcing surges"
talks about how American workers at for-profit companies must compete
with 84 million Filipinos, many of whom are well-educated, speak good
English, and are delighted to work for $300/month. Things are
looking more cheerful for U.S. workers in the not-for-profit
sector. A front-page story on Boston University's
search for a new president revealed that the school decided to pay Dan
Goldin $1.8 million in exchange for... not working at all.
Considering that Mr. Goldin had yet to start his job, that's a pretty
good hourly rate. You could hire a staff of 45 Filipino
engineers for ten years with that $1.8 mil!
[Update: the Globe runs a three-article series on "the white
collar job migration". Article 2 is "US workers see hard times" and includes a quote
from a venture capitalist: "Right when you think about Employee
11, you should think about India. My view is you should not
start a company from scratch in the United States ever again.''
Article 3 is "US business students find
opportunity is global" and talks about how MBAs are
adapting. A more interesting article appears in the same issue,
November 4, "As work shifts,
internship in India the new rite of passage" and starts with "An
increasing number of US students are going to India to intern at top
information technology services firms or to participate in tours that
allow them to network with the country's corporate elite." The
American interns, most of whom are MBAs or MBA students, get paid
about $350/month (compared to their old internships of $7000/month in
the U.S.).]

Lieberman on trade
01/07/2004 02:40 PMSo I've taped but not yet watched the Democrats' debate yesterday, but
thanks to Jim Garrison for pointing me to this exchange. According to
this Washington Post transcript, Lieberman had this to
say about trade:
I think we've got to reject the extremism of George Bush and the
extremism of Democrats who would put back walls of protectionism. And
what's the extremism of George Bush? He just sits back and lets
foreign countries break the rules of trade, rip off patents,
copyrights, take American jobs, play with the currency.
Now I too am one of those rare free-trade Democrats, and one of those
not so rare critics of the President. But letting "foreign countries"
"rip off patents, copyrights" is not one of things one might criticize
this President for. The USTR has been brutal in forcing nation after
nation into more stringent bilateral agreements with the US to
strengthen the protection of IP.
There is, of course, something that you could criticize the President
for --
farm
subsidies -- though not if you're running for President in Iowa
(General Clark?). Here again, Lieberman was the only one to mention
subsidies. His words: "So yes to subsidies as they are now, and yes to
trade."

RepCheck™
RepCheck™
06/09/2004 05:41 AMRepCheck™http://www.repcheck.com/Los Angeles-based RepCheck™ is the most comprehensive source of
information regarding the opportunities and risks of interacting with
any individual…..anywhere. Established in February 2000 RepCheck
employs an interactive and searchable database of reputation files -
RepReports™ - which allows the public to post and view information
regarding the personal reputations of themselves and others. Those
postings are then transformed, via a rating scheme that weighs the
credibility of the source, into a numeric indicator of overall
reputation - RepScore™.
The system, initially conceived
out of the founder's frustration at not being able to quickly access
information regarding the reputations of individuals in his business
and personal life, features a patented technology designed to mimic
the actual process that most people go through in the formation of
opinions and value judgments. Opinions of those on your "Trustee List"
- those people whose opinions are most meaningful to you - are more
heavily weighted in the final RepScore calculation. Additionally,
RepScore factors in all other scorers' credibility, based on their
RepScore and their history of postings to the RepReports of other
individuals.

Tricks of the Trade
Tricks of the Trade
08/27/2004 01:33 PMThe Morning News has a fun article on "tricks of the trade": documenting little
tricks used in various professions. Great stuff.
This year, for instance, a programmer can always tack the
phrase "and I'm thinking of incorporating some XML functionality"
onto a project summary to explain why he'll need an extra week,
account for a missed deadline, or impress a superior. In this respect,
the gap between software engineers and birthday clowns is almost
negligible.

Patients will occasionally pretend to be unconscious. A surefire way
to find them out is to pick up their hand, hold it above their face,
and let go. If they smack themselves, theyre most likely unconscious;
if not, theyre faking.

The Google Trade Screwup
The Google Trade Screwup
08/20/2004 04:41 AMSince everyone else is writing about the IPO there didn't seem to be
much to add. However, there was one funky thing that I was surprised
didn't get much more attention. When I first got to the computer in
the morning, I checked to see what the Google share price was actually
at... and the last trade showed a price of $135, which seemed quite
surprising. Underneath it, though, there was a quick note from the
NASDAQ saying that two trades had
accidentally been posted
prior to trading in the shares. Of course, a few minutes later, the
shares started trading for real, and everyone forgot about the
accidental trades. Now, in the aftermath, the NY Post has a short
story
noting how
the NASDAQ screwed up, if only briefly. Of course, the NYSE was
only thrilled to use this as a reason why you should trade there
instead of on the NASDAQ.
