I want a free vacation, buds. I'm Diamond Naga Siu, and I'm excited about a bunch of compensated travel opportunities coming up. Taiwan is paying tourists' expenses. A northern region of Italy is paying people to visit.

It's the middle of the week, 10 Things in Techies. I'm Diamond Naga Siu, and for the first decade or so that I worked, I was always paid in cash. I didn't put much of it into a bank, because I didn't really understand how it worked.

So I hid it in different places, keeping a mental tally of my cash stash.

I'd be pretty upset if I mistaked one of my decoy reserves for a pot of proverbial gold. But that's almost exactly what happened to JPMorgan Chase.

It's techie Tuesday, buds. I'm Diamond Naga Siu, and I really enjoy cooking and eating food.

That's why this Googler is living my dream life. He's a manager at the search giant by day and culinary school student by night. The company even pays a portion of Harrison Hill's tuition for the Institute for Culinary Education in New York.
