A moving company recently came to give us a quote on how much it would cost to move from our apartment to the new house. Suffice it to say, the way the moving company went about assembling the quote was ... scammy.

Larry Elliot wants to drum up fear via The Guardian, claiming that "robots will take our jobs!". He's not the first to do this, and he sure as heck won't be the last. Heck, people have been saying the very same thing for over two centuries.

After a late-night meeting with the company's head offices in New Jersey, my future is a complete unknown. Will I still have a job with this company in 2019? No idea. Now what?
-
In the near future I'll potentially have the ability to work from home for the most part, which means that a desktop-grade machine now makes sense to use. The question I'm considering now is whether I should buy an Apple iMac or go custom ...

Halfway into my 3-month Spotify trial, I'm wondering if it makes sense to keep the subscription. A lot of the music I listen to is music from the 80s, 90s, and 2000s that I bought on CD or iTunes. Why would I want to pay for things I already own?
