Attached to: Study Finds 94% of Business Spreadsheets Have Critical Errors
"t 94% of spreadsheets used in business decision-making contain errors, " Absolutely. People that make these entries, error, consistently. That data is never directly used to make mission critical decisions. Industries that depend upon clean data also employ data analysts, to assure individual entries are clean, anomalies are investigated and a pure dataset is recorded.
So yea, users fuck up data entry due to mistakes, errors or just plain laziness but data management is responsable for presenting clean data. And, from experience it pretty much works very well.

"with fewer industry-linked scientists "
Fewer?? please..
Experts will always be "linked" to the field they are qualified to be considered experts. Scientists with no financial link to the industry are the most accurate and unbiased way to understand fact as we know it. This is why we tenure educators, to assure unbiased dissemination of knowledge

Attached to: Google Will Roll Out New Updates To Reduce Low-Quality, Unoriginal Content In Search Results
"As long as ad platforms continue showing ads on these low quality content farm type sites, the incentive for an SEO war remains"
The change is designed to derank --"Low-Quality, Unoriginal Content In Search Results". What they are saying is even SEO optimized unauthoritative, copied, unoriginal won't make the cut as it used to.

Except for the fact that the majority of the products available on both of those platforms aren't stateside when you place your order.

Whereas we're years off from common use of some form of blockchain for trade, fiat took a while to adopt. Considering it took 51 years for the US, we probably have another what 30 until fully accepted? Some form will be adopted.

Since X.COM there's not been one business he's managed that hasn't been a successful for stakeholders. It's pretty much a no-brainer, they're buying the management not the collateral.

"(How would you invest in sex anyway?)"
How can the answer to this question not be blatantly obvious?
Just say "I do", the minute you don't you've lost half. It's 50/50 these days that you loose. Pretty poor investment in/for the worlds smallest parcel of real estate.
