Huh? "Corporation" is merely a registration status. A small-time business/startup may very well be incorporated as a Delaware C Corp.

IE10's dev tools emulation is not perfect, and has its own set of quirks. Especially as it relates to the JS runtime[1]. [1] http://alexjmackey.wordpress.com/2012/10/19/how-accurate-ie-...

Sure, that's the "technically correct, but practically worthless" answer. Trigger hyper-inflation and then what? It surely won't be "business as usual" afterwards.

Not the target of a teacher that is asking for this price. There are plenty of teachers out there that can, presumably, teach the same material just as well for probably less cost to the student, however it's not the OP's job to

Fascinating, where do you find these bonds and/or info on them? Do you work for a financial institution that have internal proprietary access to such information, or is this publicly searchable?

99.99%+ of all life form that have ever existed on Earth are extinct. And it isn't because of Humans. Think about that for a second: The universe is-- gasp --actively trying to 'kill' life. For us to undertake the greatest mass extinction o

Huh? That's such a pessimistic view of the world. I would say the opposite is true, statistically. There are far fewer psychopaths out to kill people than there are people who are not willing to do so. Thus in absence of any other facts abo

But aren't teamwork and team loyalty just two means to the same end--which is to maximize profits. So why does it matter that it's a type of business that only value the end instead of the means? Reminds me of designer friends of mine that

What do you exactly disagree with? On first blush, that seems mostly agreeable--mostly. Is it the tone that gets to you, the underlying message, or the overly idealistic picture it paints?

I'm slightly confused on one point. If the options need not be exercised, why then, would any employee with a minority stake want to spend his own money to exercise them? Why not wait until the company exits and have it, as you say, be 'aut

I agree with you completely. I was merely pointing out that it was a great sci-fi movie worth watching. Not as some sort of foreshadowing of future societal outcome. Plus, what's portrayed in the movie (i.e. discrimination based on genetics

I'm curious about how equity/options vesting work in the general silicon valley startup (I'm sure details will vary). Actually, I'm curious how it works generally, period. But most people reading HN is probably more familiar with SV startup

I think you meant GATTACA, the movie? To anyone who hasn't seen it, fantastic movie. Highly recommended. Re: your other points. I think your concerns are well placed, however this isn't something that's specific to Counsyl; 23andme presumab

Plants don't just "reproduce themselves". Nor do they "infect" other plants. This is not a "infectious" trait. If you cross pollinate (a.k.a. 'breeding plants'), the active genes responsible for glowing in the dark may or may not even be pa

We're barely 13.4% into the twenty-first century. Give us some time, will ya? Even Tesla didn't make that prediction until the 1930's, well after the turn of the century.

It doesn't matter if he got off easy or not. Two wrongs does not make a right. If you wrong someone, and s/he tries to then injure you with a heavy blunt object but fails, it doesn't mean "you got off easy". You can then counter sue for att

I don't know. Honestly, I don't. I think it seriously would come down to what context that issue was brought up, how good the prosecution is vs. the defense attorneys (both supplied by the Crown, presumably. Unless one or more of the accuse

No she wasn't. Do you even understand Canadian law? The age of consent is 14, if the other partner is within 5 years of age. Her classmates at the party would have been, presumably, within 5 years of age. Source: http://www.justice.gc.ca/e

Perhaps you need a refresher. When Bill C-11 was introduced, it was a CARBON COPY of Bill C-32, of which Mr. Geist did not give a very flattering review at all: http://www.michaelgeist.ca/content/view/6031/125/ How about this piece: "In o
