"Heck, web ads give the user an instant way to click through and act on the ad" And that is the problem. Because the ads in print just sit there, the only way to measure the effectiveness is in increase in sales. On the web however, the sal

When you start talking about yourself, you are bragging and a bit of an arrogant looser. Let others praise your youtube monetization google!

Yes, I realised that after reading the quote another three times. The article itself however seems to be about scrapping, or theft, so I thought that quote describes what he does well, but of course failed to see that he works for Linux Ma

"Over the years, I’ve likely scraped tens of Web sites. In fact, in 2005, I scraped the entirety of the then-current Linux Magazine site to port its content to a new content management system." Society does not benefit by allowing these peo

So this guy is a marketer. His posts are no longer than 500 words. So he sits on his computer for 20 minutes has a rant and he gets on the front page of hacker news. Has he said anything? Oh I just work here, he sounds like a 10 year old ki

Yet they differ fundamentally as history is based on fact, philosophy on logics, psychology and sociology on sort of both, while literature can be anything from entertainment, mostly entertainment, to philosophy.

"Technology startups make unique products that people want." So basically they are just a business.

With that thesis the author can get famous, where is his incentive to be honest about it? Well, this article is about a scientist, or statistician, alleging that the results are "speculation". She is being polite of course and in the scie

Yeah I see that and I agree with much of what pg had to say. Sometimes however it might be better to just shoot str8 for 1 million. He used the facebook example and I do not think that was profitable at all before it gained traction. I can

does that mean therefore that there are NOT 3 billion females and 3 billion males in the world, since, if it is not just about the sperm race and our bodies have mechanisms to determine the chances of survival of the foetus, then it is no l

So, basically, try and make $1000 first and then aim for 1 million. Why not go for 1 million str8 away?

Seeing as most of our society is divided into specialised jobs, perhaps there should be positions for some individuals who are jack of all traders but masters of none.

Well, the first argument is that it would not work. When the ten new EU states joined, only the UK and Ireland opened its borders and we were flooded with Polish people, about 500k which is roughly about 1% of the UK population. There was t

I thought that individuals from the western world, i.e EU, America, Australia, etc, can go anywhere they like. It is the rest of the world which is restricted on travel, say India, the balkans, brazil, africa of course.

The pressure for another stimulus (and greater deficits) would be intense I guess the newspapers would want some of that money? Only recently on telly here in the UK they were saying that only 20% of the stimulus had been spent, so there

You gota like the guy, maybe he did save the world seeing as Financial Times is being optimistic about a recovery this year. A global society however is not achieved by rhetorics and heart felt stories of children. China, a country with 2 b

Of course we do not care man. It is not like the Chinese gave us the wealth. We invented stuff, we traded with other countries and shared our knowledge, they decided to close up, to live in some island, and now that they are opening up they

Unless of course technology can improve things. I doubt the Chinese have the technology we do.

I do not think the case in question is about a forum. Even if it was no one should be free to proliferate malicious and false information which may injure the reputation of an individual or company. Reputation is a valuable thing to an indi

I suppose the operative word there is significant and strong. I did not imply that you need genius level intelligence to be creative, what I implied is that not everyone can be creative as the article states and I gave my reasoning which is

Libel laws have no place on the web. What is the difference of NYT publishing a defamatory article and huffington post? According to your logic the former should pay a lot of money while the later is free to be as defamatory as it wishes.

by Ardit20 17y ago
I do not think anyone can be creative. There is such a thing as inate intelligence and it is not a fairytale nor does it not do anything. Most people have an IQ of 100 so what these people create is pretty normal stuff because they see the

Nice article. I find it strange however that although he considers school to be boring and a preparation for work, he goes on to say that work can be fun. I am not so sure that school was boring for the architect, or the lawyer, doctor, tea
