I wonder how well paywalled programming languages do relative to more openly available languages.

> It didn't pay off to be optimistic in 1930. It depends on the timeframe. First, you got a lot in dividends (which were much higher rates than today’s dividends on average). Secondly, by the end of the war, you were at least brea

That’s a 40 times revenue . The normal metric is a multiple of profits . There is no way this isn’t overvalued. Even reasonably fast growth of a 40x multiplier would need roughly 1 billion in profits. And yes, I say that as a fan of the

I get the hate for Electron, but to me, despite the issues, it's not going away. I think a better approach is to figure out how to make Electron more performant in the various OSes. I haven't gotten into the internals of Electron

Maybe the US is. Perhaps they already know, and are working on a big counter-offensive, but waiting for the right time to deploy it. When you're this deep into national security, it is best to assume the story you are hearing is a lie,

I'm presuming since that one is to twitter instead of Apple, that this one gets preference as source.

I live in Houston and can attest to that being ridiculously true. This is completely due to government incompetence (mostly local, not state or federal). The lack of remediation after Harvey is just sad. So many missed opportunities. B

You should try Feedly. It’s like that but without the baggage of being owned by a company that suffers from ADHD.

> But what about the guy worth $100 million? Question - which guy with $100million - the one with it all in cash, or the one who owns a company that is “worth” $100million ? Those are two very different people.

Asking for more will start to limit the number of developers who develop for their platform. Probably not the Microsoft's of the world, but tons of smaller ones. For instance, if you raised the individual's fee to $500, then a bun

Apple's P/E ratio is roughly 29. So, if you assume that the $15bn is pretty much all profit (for simplicity here remember), then the value of that for AAPL is roughly $35bn in market cap. So it takes a really good reason to kic

Why is this not fraud? If you as a company source a device for reviewers and then change the specs in a way that you do not communicate, that is intent to defraud. If you bought a corvette because all the car reviews said it went 0-60 in 5
