The book was initially titled "Drug Dealing for Fun and Profit". There is really no need to attack the "4 hour" notion since it's not even close to the essence of the book. The book is a collection of tactics, tools

Cook's narrative looks a lot like a dictator's political propaganda: "Without us the world would turn into hell. Our centralized control, punishment, extortion, and dictatorship are the only way for all of us to survive. Othe

Companies provide too much freedom and they are too afraid to punish employees for not doing actual work they are paid to do. Not to mention not punishing those who create toxic unproductive work environment for others by pushing political

Looks like another Magic Leap but in TV formfactor—technology great in concept, and even MVP but completely unrealistic in terms of consumer grade HW as to affordability and accessibility. It will be another tombstone on a huge grave of Goo

It's not so much about nature of DRM streaming vs having a movie on your disk. The whole debate is really about Apple misleading users into overpaying for a mere rent of a movie. When you buy something and have a complete ownershio yo

Isn't it obvious? Goodreads doesn't need to make money on its own. It's a customer acquisition and retention tool for Amazon. The same way as DPReview is. They both are good for communities and don't try to be anything e

Looks like the author is not really a strategist and doesn't understand basics about business models and nature of services as also what exactly a CAC is, what loss leader is and what free means for engagement.

Happens when a business model is to sign up as many people as possible for the ISA (Income Sharing Agreement) and then immediately monetize that ISAs by selling them with a discount to a 3rd party. That's basically Lambda business mode

I guess Google needs to figure out whether it gives services for free in exchange for data collection and ads or it completely kills ads for paying customers. It shouldn't overload paying users with ads. It shouldn't display even

Value = proper Office suite online and offline with proper document formatting and files + more storage. Altogether cheaper than G Suite. Also it's really great value to have Office installed locally as a proper software. Not a crappy

Because MS Office is a different business than giving away free accounts to collect user data. It provides cloud services for money. I guess MS has much better redundancy mechanisms and pretty much committed to not lose your data. Well, shi

Happened to me too after 10 years of Gmail use. Exactly the same story. No explanation. As I remember at that time I checked Google servers data as to uptime—the data was public, not sure about now—and it appeared that there was a serious p

I'd never hire such a person to work for me. Nobody needs a job hopper who only rely on an employer to invest in her to just then hop to another job. Professional growth is achieved by being useful and proactive at a job one has. Not

Apparently Google is too afraid of regulation and complete ban of Google Play Store in the huge market to implement the extortive 30% tax. India has 18% of the world population (as also China) -- mostly on Android. There are discussions to

The only reason for 3rd party authorization is that these 3rd party auth services are ubiquitous unlike Apple's one. How the hell Apple expects people to use a service with an Apple auth in Windows 10 Edge browser is beyond any reasona

What are you talking about? Read my comment. You have stand-alone native-like app that Microsofts creates for you from your web service. The app could also be installed directly from the Windows Store. No browser required at all.

If you want anything from the web to work on Windows as native why not just use PWA utilizing Microsoft's (1) own PWA Builder (2) including the availability of proper debugging tools and acceptance in the store? It doesn't matter

So, the whole Google's search is based on scraping publicly accessible information from public web-sites. Nothing to be surprised about that the practice is declared legal. Otherwise they should have demand for Google to basically liqu
