Create a customer advisory board that isn’t afraid to challenge you. It’s tempting to put your best, most adoring customers on your customer advisory board, but resist the urge to do so! Instead, recruit your most demanding customers — their voices should be heard loudly and frequently throughout the company. Identify and empower your customer-obsessed employees. Seek out the people in your organization who frequently point out how the organization could be more customer-friendly. Give them roles as customer advocates in your strategy and product development processes. Tie customer metrics to organizational performance. How are customers reflected in your company’s dashboards — if at all? If you are what you measure, then make sure you capture what your customers are feeling and saying about you — and let their needs guide strategic objectives and transformation initiatives.
If you want to survive in this automated, globalized economy, you should understand programming, and there are no shortage of coding schools and websites where you can learn. But software development is a constantly changing field, and languages high in demand a decade or even five years ago can fall into irrelevance.
Despite, or perhaps because of its simplicity, Python is used in major, growing technological fields such as data science and machine learning. Yet it also possesses the versatility to be used in other areas such as web development and boasts a wide community of Python experts and amateurs who can help you learn. Python can have some issues scaling up, but it remains a great beginner language you can learn to get an idea of what learning a programming language is like.
SQL is technically not a programming language, as it cannot be used to build applications, but it is arguably more in demand than any programming language. SQL is used for create, read, update and delete (CRUD) operations in regards to databases, and every business today relies heavily on databases. This means that you can use SQL to more readily find information in massive databases beyond hitting Ctrl+F. You can also spawn new databases and reorder data into a more accessible format.
C++ is a programming language used for applications such as games and operating systems, drivers and iOS and Adobe development. It is an extension of C, one of the oldest programming languages. Because it's a difficult language, you can find a C tutorial to help you and your team to master it. Importantly, C++ scales up very easily, making it suitable for large projects and C++ developers can at times write their own ticket since it is more difficult to learn.
E-commerce continues to eat away markets from traditional offline retail. With every passing year, we see the share of total revenue from e-commerce increasing compared to sales at physical stores. The “retail apocalypse” is a direct result of increased online accessibility and is poised to wipe out a great deal of operational methods retailers have banked on for decades.
That said, the competition among e-commerce sites is just as heated. A new online seller, or a small one, finds it extremely difficult to acquire loyal customers or even make themselves seen and heard above the competition. If you’re a small-time online retailer are a few critical steps that you can take that can take you from survival to success.
No matter how great your marketing is, nothing can influence a consumer’s purchase more than another customer’s review. According to Pew Research, over half of your customers will check your online reviews before purchasing, yet most consumers admit that they rarely leave a review themselves. It’s your job to make sure you collect any positive recommendations from previous purchases and include them on your website.
Once you choose the right platform that works for you, make sure you add clear product descriptions with full technical specifications, high quality images and add-ons that allow for multiple shipping options and payment methods to encourage new customers to make that first purchase.
How many times do you go to the supermarket and come back with just the items that were originally present in your shopping list? If you’re like me, never. Upselling and cross-selling are the oldest tricks in the retail book.
Obviously, product recommendations and upsells work quite well for Amazon, but does that apply to other companies, too? The answer is without a doubt, yes. Online businesses have reported that up to 30 percent of their revenue is generated through upsells, while cross-sells typically hover around a 3-4 percent conversion rate.
In order to keep your e-commerce website operating in tip-top shape, it’s absolutely essential to track analytical data. Tracking down the data for important numbers like sales and conversions can be a hassle, especially if you are new to using Google Analytics for e-commerce. However, staying on top of these important numbers can lead to higher sales and improvements for future customers.
If you want to save time with these reports, you can set up automated tracking with Google Analytics by integrating it with your website. Shopify offers a simple integration system with its hosted sites, making it super simple to track instant data reports from your customer’s actions on your webpage.
For instance, if you want to see the information on your consumer’s habits, you can issue a behavior report from Google. This analytical overview will show you everything from bounce rates and typical shopping habits like time spent and purchase amounts to amount of page views and spikes in visits based off of time and dates. You can set up these analytics to be automatically sent to your email on a regular basis, too, so you don’t need to scramble to put together reports for the next business meeting.

"Regulator has no legal power to pre-empt states from protecting their residents and economy."
"Washington, D.C. has abandoned its obligation to protect American consumers from predatory special interests"
On Monday TelecomTV reported on the the intemperate and brazenly partizan comments made by Ajit Pai in reference to moves by members of the State Legislature of California to introduce their own net neutrality regulations to reinstate what they describe as "fair and open access to the Internet." (see "FCC Chairman: "We have met the enemy and it is free data"). Agitated Ajit, told his Maine-ly right-wing think-tank audience that California's proposed legislation is both "illegal" and "anti-consumer", and a blatant attempt by a "nanny-state" to "destroy consumer rights".
Two Senators, Scott Wiener, a San Francisco Democrat and Kevin de León, a Los Angeles Democrat, are working together to, as Scott Weiner puts it, "protect open Internet access, the free flow of information, and innovation" in California. However, Mr. Pai regards their efforts as "micromanagement" and an attempt to "seek greater government control of the Internet" (which is remarkable mental gymnastics given that the majority of the FCC board are Republican appointees who kowtow to the party line of the Trump administration), and calls the California proposals "an egregious example of radical, anti-consumer internet regulation" that "poses a risk to the rest of the country."
Having been strimmed by the weed-whacker-in-chief, Scott Weiner has responded to Pai's criticisms by, in the first instance, accusing the FCC Chairman of "crony capitalism" and of having "abdicated his responsibility." He added, ""Unlike Pai’s FCC, California isn’t run by the big telecom and cable companies. Pai can take whatever potshots at California he wants. The reality is that California is the world’s innovation capital, and unlike the crony capitalism promoted by the Trump Administration, California understands exactly what it takes to foster an open innovation economy with a level playing field."
California Senate Bills 822 and 460, which, it is expected, will be signed into law by State Governor Jerry Brown at the end of this month, will institute the strongest net neutrality protections in the entire US and Ajit Pai has got a big burr under his saddle about it.
Scott Weiner says, "SB822 is necessary and legal because Chairman Pai abdicated his responsibility to ensure an open Internet. Since the FCC says it no longer has any authority to protect an open Internet, it’s also the case that the FCC lacks the legal power to preempt states from protecting their resident and economy."
Here, Weiner is referring to the fact that, in essence, the US regulator has abdicated all requirement and responsibility as an intermediator to protect consumers from rapacious ISPs and telcos in regard to broadband Internet access and the throttling of traffic and has passed the buck on that one over to the US Federal Trade Commission (FTC).
Even before he was appointed Chairman of the FCC by Donald Trump, Ajit Pai was busy burnishing his business-friendly anti-regulation credentials. He said, "We need to fire up the weed whacker and remove those rules that are holding back investment, innovation, and job creation." And if that isn't clear enough evidence of his ideological determination to dismantle the Obama-era net neutrality regulations, there was a further clue in the title of his policy initiative, the "Restoring Internet Freedom Order". Straight out of the "How to be a Tinpot Despot" that one.
Once he became Chairman of the FCC, Ajit Pai duly took up cudgels and tried to bash the living daylights out of net neutrality but, as others in the past have learned, the only way to eat an elephant is to do it a bit at a time. Adit Pai's eyes though are bigger than his belly and he attempted to consume the entire mammoth of years of net neutrality regulations, tusks, trunk, toenails and all, at one sitting.
It was a capital mistake to do so rather than pick specific grounds on which to fight and win a series of small but cumulatively important battles that would have helped his overall campaign over time. But no, he's a weed-whacker in a hurry and now he's surprised and angry as more and more states (29 so far and counting) line up to to fight back and introduce their own net neutrality regulations to reinstate what they describe as "fair and open access to the Internet."
Scott Weiner says he fully expects that California's initiative will be challenged in the courts over the contention that federal rights take precedence over states rights as far as broadband is concerned and so is getting his retaliation in early, practicing his rebuttals and emphasising that California's proposals based around "a broad coalition of consumer groups, groups advocating for low income people, small and mid-size technology companies, labour unions and President Obama's FCC chairman, Tom Wheeler."
Meanwhile, Senator Kevin de León says, "When Washington, D.C. abandons its obligation to protect American consumers from predatory special interests, California must step up and do D.C.’s job. Net neutrality is critical to safeguarding the integrity of our democracy, which is why we are committed to making sure that every single Californian has equal access to the information and resources on the Internet."
Finally, it might behove us to remember that ISPs sell Internet services, not the Internet itself.
The clue is in the fact that they are called Internet Services Providers. It means they are selling Internet access and a Californian ISP sells Internet access services that are applied across and completely within the State of California itself and nowhere else. However, when the subscribers to an ISPs services access the Internet, he or she can wander off to browse and download data from anywhere they like.
It's not for the ISPs to circumscribe where their customers go once they are online. Basically, the FCC is being hoist by its own petard. The regulator admits and agrees that ISPs are not selling telecoms but access to a public network and California's net neutrality proposals are designed to ensure that ISPs must treat all data equally. As the judge told the bigamist, "You can't have your Kate and Edith".

WHAT ADVANTAGES ARE THERE TO FILING FOR BANKRUPTCY?
1. The main benefit that you derive from filing for bankruptcy is the “fresh start / clean slate” that the court gives you upon filing. This will in turn allow you the chance to rebuild your credit score (which will increase quite a bit over the following two years).
2. If your creditors are harassing you night and day (with things like phone calls, letters, and emails), this activity will come to a hard stop upon the filing of your case.
3. But if in fact a creditor has already sued and received a judgment against you, this sort of activity will stop as well (no more wage garnishments, no more bank levies).

Support that I asked for please. The smart thing to do would be to go out and look for stuff the republicans have done. You're just helping my argument by bloviating.
If you'd like to go over what the Russians did and are doing that be a great topic for another thread. It's a given in this thread.
Ok, it's given in this thread the Russian's did "something" to attempt to affect our last presidential election.
What should be the appropriate response be?
Once we know that, we can judge how far off the mark republican's actually are.
and you therefore agree that there should be a response.
Awesome! I have seen nothing on this, what do you have to offer?
No, I am trying to work within the confines of the Op.
You claim the Rep's have not responded adequately, so I am asking what would be adequate.
Nope, see the title of this thread.
"The government informed electric companies last summer that Russia undertook what DHS calls a "multistage intrusion campaign" against the utilities, using common hacking techniques such as malware and spear-phishing. The hackers were able to to gain access to at least one power plant's control system."
""Our energy infrastructure is under attack," Cantwell said. "It's under cyberattack, and we need to do much more to protect it as a national critical asset."
Cantwell wants the Trump administration to do an assessment of Russian cyberattacks against the electric grid. The Department of Energy is establishing an Office of Cybersecurity, Energy Security, and Emergency Response, which will focus on energy infrastructure security.
But any retaliation in response to Russia's cyber-incursion would be up to Trump."
Is it possible that Russia hacked our utility grid and caused the current disaster here in Massachusetts? Perhaps to distract from the Mannaforte announcement?
If so, and knowing that it happened before and that this is a favored tactic of the Russians, has Trump not protected us?
This would be an act of war, no? especially since people died?
Since it is against international law and US tax dollars can not be used for such a purpose by US law, I am convinced the US would not try to influence another country's elections so we are justified in being outraged that a country would try to influence ours (*by allowing some truths to be known about one party only).
It is quite possible to be outraged about both you know... I think our efforts to interfere in the affairs of other nations is generally reprehensible and ill-conceived. I also think it is important that we take reasonable steps to protect ourselves from such interference.
I don't believe I have suggested otherwise, indeed, the reason for my sarcastic quote was to exemplify Americans trying to take the moral/legal high ground when our own gov't has/tried to assassinate other world leaders, let alone try to "influence" their countries elections.
I think our efforts to interfere in the affairs of other nations is generally reprehensible and ill-conceived.
I agree in general, though I do see times when it would benefit almost everyone. There have been/are situations where I think it was/is in the best interest of humanity that we intervene, but it shouldn't be our basic foreign policy.
I also think it is important that we take reasonable steps to protect ourselves from such interference.
Agreed. The threats are many and very real!
In which you'd be completely wrong.

When you select to use our skip hire aid, you will find that we give prompt bringing of your chosen skip and the best feasible prices on the market. We offer a free pick up service to all customers within the area and can even help you with obtaining an on road permit for any, skip, at an additional cost.
How much time you will be employing a skip for is another factor that affects the price. You may think that the longer you hire a skip for, the more you should pay. However, this is not always the case. Many skip hire companies now offer regarding longer periods, but only consider this option if your project is likely to take a few months to complete. Keep in mind that if you place the container on public land, you will require license extensions and renewals from the council before placing the skip on the road. Virtually all councils only issue permits that are valid for a fortnight to at least one month.

Ever stuck on Highland, Government, College, I-10… well, anywhere in Baton Rouge, and wish you could just zoom over all the congestion?
Uber has partnered with NASA to move work forward on their sci-fi solution to the very real problem of gridlock: flying taxis.
The ridesharing company announced in April they were working on an initiative called uberAIR, and recently said they connected with NASA to develop the air management systems needed to handle a fleet of flying taxis.
Uber plans to introduce a few test vehicles to Los Angeles, Dallas, and Dubai by 2020. No idea when Baton Rouge would make that list.

The RDA Working Group "FAIR data maturity model" established in January 2019 aims primarily to develop as an RDA Recommendation a common set of core assessment criteria for FAIRness, which will be accompanied by a generic and expandable self-assessment model for measuring the implementation level of the FAIR data principles. The expected outcomes of this RDA Working Group will improve the interoperability of existing and emerging assessment methodologies for FAIR, allow the combination and comparison of their results and increase the homogeneity of the FAIR metric tools developed at global level.

The expected outcomes of this RDA Working Group will improve the interoperability of existing and emerging assessment methodologies for FAIR, allow the combination and comparison of their results and increase the homogeneity of the FAIR metric tools developed at global level. The main objective of this first face-to-face meeting is to reach consensus on the key principles and phases of the design methodology that will lead to the definition of the common set of core assessment criteria for FAIRness. In addition, a report summarizing existing work will be presented, together with the results of an analysis of similar assessment criteria and models that could be reused either as they are or after some necessary changes. This meeting forms a milestone in the work of the group, marking the end of an investigative phase and the start of development of a set of core assessment criteria in a hybrid methodology that builds on the previous and ongoing activities around the world. The results of the meeting will feed into the development phase that aims to produce a proposal for a common set of core assessment criteria for FAIRness to be discussed in a sequence of conference calls in the period April to September 2019.
Researchers, data service owners, funders and infrastructures from different scientific and research disciplines, the industry and public sector, who are active and/or interested in the FAIR data principles and in particular in assessment criteria and methodologies for evaluating their real-life uptake and implementation level.
