GTY is more about building something from nothing: getting people to join you in an effort/venture, from a position if initial mistrust. It is too softball for strictly 1-dimensional negotiations like a car price. Haggling on car price will

It only solves itself if the users are non anonymous. Otherwise, how do you know if a creeper posts to the site after your date?

PR is irrelevant to "open". Either the product is or isn't. Academics should be smart enough is it isn't.

Here's hoping they take that $100 million and build a better product to replace Mendelay. That's how you stick it to The Man. With his own money.

> How could a page take 30 seconds to load? Why does everything have a murky gray background? This perfectly describes the modern. JS-overloaded "subtle shading" design of modern web apps... The grey backgrounds were really weird, in re

Of course you are tired after you exercise. But a day or two later you should feel more energetic, after sleeping better. You have to do the sleeping too. And eating well. Don't pile on greasy calories to feed your exercising body, that wil

Not massive amounts. The Twinkie guy ate 1800 calories a day, including protein shakes. And vitamin suplements to cover his deficit. The balance of the diet matters, so it is a very narrow claim to say that twinkies aren't bad because someo

Why do people use NFS in this decade, when we have stuff like FUSE to put a file API on top of reliable networking tools? NFS is an unstable buggy mess suitable only for light personal use. I have never been at an org that wasn't actively m

Some people might be happier if more of the hundred millionaires walked out to pillage flailing competitors. It isn't obvious that VP retention is good for morale. But it would be cool if Larry Page said "your old org, from intern to direct

Kind of a long way of describing that big company big wigs get paid a lot of money, and it isn't really a big issue because no worker bee is as irreplaceable. He knows a lot of similarly well placed people and knows a lot of Google's busine

How many people do you think are VP's at Google? A few hundred at most? $X million per year is normal for a big co VP. This isn't like a bank were every teller or saleman is called VP. He is a One-percenter at the top of the Google pyramid
