Samsung Galaxy Note 9 review: The confirmation-bias battle continues
Posted in: Uncategorized
I’ve had my Samsung Galaxy Note 9 for a few days and I can say without hesitation that this is an awesome device. It’s aesthetically beautiful, it’s fast, it’s powerful, and it’s packed with small improvements that combine to make the Note 9 a best-in-class Android handheld.
General impressions
I really like the Note 9. It is a case study in continuous improvement, which is clearly Samsung’s innovation strategy. There isn’t one “blow your mind” new feature, but each aspect of the Note 9 has been improved. When taken together, this combination of improvements makes the Note 9 a serious standout in a crowded room of Android phones.

Are you a Best Place to Work? The deadline to enter is Friday
Posted in: Uncategorized
This year’s Best Places to Workdeadline to enter is Friday!looks different than it has in the past.
Along with our new partner, Latitude, we’ve made things bigger and better. The criteria has been modernized to better reflect the policies and attitudes that create healthy, successful work environments, and to even out the playing field for companies big and small.
The updates take a more rigorous look at how companies embrace factors such as diversity and inclusion, reward hard work and grow their bottom lines. Survey questions address the structures in place for employee advancement, compensation and profit sharing, the benefits you offer (think: maternity and paternity leaves), and the makeup of your workforce (what percentage of your U.S. employees would you classify as belonging to a minority or multicultural group, for instance?). They also look at the resources available to your employees, from mentoring programs to “creative playtime.”
