Analyzing Everything: Attention Span
http://analysisofeverything.blogspot.com/2010/01/attention-span.html
General Subject Blog by Jeff Staddon. Monday, January 4, 2010. Ever notice that pay is largely determined by attention span? Low paying jobs typically require very short attention spans- make a burger, ring up a sale. Higher paying jobs require longer interactions. The highest paying jobs often have steps requiring months if not years to complete. What is your attention span? Could you make it longer? Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom). Subscribe in a reader.

Tuesday, February 3, 2015. Finding an Accidental Cross Join in an Oracle Query. Ever work on a query that joins multiple Oracle tables and one of them is cross joining on multiple rows resulting in multiple identical data rows in your output?

Blah, blah, blah. Just add this to your list of fields:.

Analyzing Everything: Wikileaks--Providing a Valuable Service?
http://analysisofeverything.blogspot.com/2010/12/wikileaks-providing-valuable-service.html
General Subject Blog by Jeff Staddon. Wednesday, December 8, 2010. Wikileaks- Providing a Valuable Service? I find it interesting that nearly all the coverage of Wikileaks makes the implicit assumption that organized governments are against Wikileaks. A good analysis of the situation however leads me to question that assumption. 1) Wikileaks has operated with impunity for a remarkably long period of time and until fairly recently from Amazon.com servers. This is another valuable commodity. What I can't f...

General Subject Blog by Jeff Staddon. Monday, December 20, 2010. FCC vs. the Internet. Over the past twenty years the Internet has grown from a small academic community into a worldwide phenomena.

General Subject Blog by Jeff Staddon. Monday, January 24, 2011. Why I Like the Filibuster. In my work I am regularly called upon to make difficult technical decisions. My best work is done in a slow methodical way. Decisions made quickly in the passion of the moment are often regretted. Some of my best decisions have taken months to solidify in my mind. I don't find it strange at all that groundbreaking legislation can take months to work through Congress. In fact it should! Subscribe in a reader.

http://analysisofeverything.blogspot.com/2015/02/conclusion-hypothosis.html
General Subject Blog by Jeff Staddon. Sunday, February 8, 2015. Real things I've been wrong about:. The team I was sure would win the Super Bowl. The smart investment move. The right speed to navigating a curvy road. So how did I get to these wrong conclusions? I think that's a bit too simple.
