In my cover letter, I mostly emphasise my excel skills. I'm worried I might be grilled on my excel knowledge especially since what I mostly do is just copy stackoverflow code then modify it for what I want.
Any advice?

my cover letter
When companies say intermediate/advanced excel they generally just mean things like vlookup and pivot tables unless they specify otherwise. In an interview you probably won't have to do more than acknowledge that you know what those are and that you can do them. If they give you any sort of test it'll probably be more focused on solving some type of problem than your actual excel skills.

Last sentence on your third paragraph.

Should that be 'my team and I' ?

Does anyone have experience with unions?
I'd like to unionize my workplace. I think I have the support and leadership skills to do it, but I have no idea how the process works.
>>1316222
Historically unions are crybabies that create violent mobs and kill people.
Economically they are leeches who destroy business and communities.
You identify a union that fits your industry, contact their HQ, and say you want help organizing your company. You'll get help. That's what they do.
>>1316262
If self-interest and pursuit of profit is the name of the game, unionization is a viable tactic, especially for the average person.
>>1316284
Pretty much it. Even the threat of a union drive can do wonders. In 2006, I took a part-time job in a mail sorting center for $7.50 an hour. We formed an organizing committee to start a union drive and management just came out and gave a blanket $2/hour raise.

What are the chances of the housing bubble actually popping? Would now be a terrible time to invest? Apparently a lot of wealthy people don't think so.
Maybe I'll just invest in bitcoins.

Chinese are exiting the market, so stay away.
Also if brexit fails then British stocks should go up over the next year or so.
>>1316303
Why are the Chinese exiting the market?
Are they cashing out their assets abroad to prepare for a Chinese economic slowdown?
What are some good arguments against basic income? I fucking hate this shit. It's basically nigger tier politics and a recipe for disaster. So far my best point is that basic income will promote the shadow economy. You'll see a lot more tax evasion as well. Plus it encourages degenerates to breed and produce more criminally minded/nigger offspring.
Why the fuck would I work and pay taxes so others can sit at home and do nothing?
>>1315943
because you like your job and sitting at home doing nothing is not a life-style for people who want to have personal growth.
basic income will become universal in 2083, when automation really gets golden, born too early im afraid op.

Same. Was going to buy some ETH last night and decided to wait until today. Just picked up a ton of ETH at under $14.
What a great day!
I'm starting at Northwestern in the fall as an undergrad, pretty set on studying math and economics.
How do I discover what banking-specific role I'd like to fill as I come out of university? Can someone help give me a rundown of what opportunities would be available to me?
Like where the hell am I supposed to intern after sophomore year? Or junior year? How do I gather information about what jobs are available after graduation for someone with my projected credentials?
so you're going to an incredibly expensive college and you don't know the first thing about what you want to major in? Good luck retard.

Get some summer internships in Chicago.

you don't understand how elite schools make students pay. they give need based scholarships only and commit to meeting the demonstrated need of every student.
almost all of my schooling is paid for and this is about as expensive as my local state school is.

in addition i do know what i will major in. i will most likely dual major in econ/math or econ/stats with a certificate in financial economics from the business school. i listed 2 majors in the first line of the OP...

I make good money, but I have no energy or motivation to learn the stock market / seek out investments, I'd rather spend that time increasing my monthly liquid earnings.

hey /biz/. i have an idea for an app, but i have no programming experience, and the software i need would need to allow it's users absolute privacy. how do i ensure that if i hire an i.t guy, that he won't install a backdoor or something else which will rape my business without my realising it? also how much approx should i look to pay a programmer per hour for creating and updating this s/w?
perhaps i should just learn to do it myself? i have no programming knowledge. would it be terribly difficult to build an app myself? what i want is, i think, pretty simple,...

>how do i ensure that if i hire an i.t guy, that he won't install a backdoor
Well no way you can verify that if you aren't a coder. Hell, even if you were it's still possible to hide things. You just have to find somebody you trust (maybe nearby so you can sue them or something. Not pajeet half way across the world.)
>i have no programming knowledge. would it be terribly difficult to build an app myself?
Depends exactly what it...

Probably not the best idea to pay per hour because the programmer could just intentionally take longer to get more money, just agree on an amount for the project. If you're Looking For An android app then the programming language would be java, iphone - objective-c or swift i think, and Windows and Mac idk, these could take around 6 months to learn if you really try. It would probably be best if you do it yourself so you know exactly how it works and how's it's built and you won't give anyone any ideas but there would most likely be contracts signed to solve...

>Like encrypted messaging or something?
i guess. i don't really know what would be required. all i need is, in a nutshell, an app which can be installed without complications (noobs, elderly and plebs need to be able to use it) then for them to secretly communicate a message of 5-20 characters, to other app users. the message needs to cause the recipient's phone to beep, for the recipient to be able to receive the message, see who it was from, then crucially, send a response...

You guys realize don't you that this bastard wasn't trying to steal DAO tokens. If he was smart enough to exploit the weakness he damn well knew about the 27 days. I bet my wife's flabby ass that he shorted the shit out of Ether everywhere he could and sat back and made mad untraceable bank. Find the fucker that went short at $21 and you have your man. By him a beer for me - Well done sir.

Wasn't the flaws already pointed out by independent researchers?
As in, this guy is just some reasonably competent (but not genius) hacker who acted on others work.
But otherwise, yeah sounds about right OP.
Just found out it's going to cost $2k+ to repair my 00 Maxima so I'm currently shopping around. What are some /biz/ cars that you drive or would drive? I'm curious to know
Hatchbacks seem the most practical but most would probably die or get stuck in the NE during the winter

Ethereum shills BTFO
King-of-all-Autists Vitalik demanded the exchanges halt trading of ETH to prevent a mega dump.
