DO NOT give into this person because of fear!!! The moment you do that, he has you. Out of curiosity, why stay in a place where they clearly feel they can just fire people at a moments notice like you're some statistic? Could you hand

Sounds like you may have Delayed Sleep Phase Syndrome - a condition where you circadium rhythm is later. I've had this since, well, birth =). Always had difficulty sleeping at normal times and am naturally a night-owl. Doesn't mat

Agree. I initially thought it was brave the designer asking a subjective perspective on work and using it to weigh up what was better. Then I saw I disagreed and instantly thought "Uhhh-ooh". Unfortunately, I didn't pay as m

I look at information primarily in chunks, i'll scan the chunks(not the text or details) and that determines whether I should read. For some reason it's harder for me to do that with the right. SO the right becomes a mess to me an

I really like the concept and a bunch of the features but echo other thoughts. Also, plzplzplzzplz don't keep something a bunch of people have said they dislike because it came about years ago and you're attached to it.

Hmm, this takes the point/fun out of being a nomad for me. I'm going to another country to work, effectively rather than going to experience the country and work on the side. Good idea though, sure there will be lots of people wh

Interesting point. However as a consumer/developer I can think of lots of fun things to do with beacons that have nothing to do with businesses =). There are far more things you can do with them then simply targeting ads.

Uhhh what? Lol? Monks did not invent Meditation :). Humans have used meditation for thousands of years. Some of the best world leaders use meditation... Monks additionally do contribute to science. A lot infact. When i've visited monis

Again, a response from someone who doesn't understand meditation. It does increase learning and self improvement to a greater level than virtually any other task. Why? Because it develops metacognition. You can find many resources and

Go for the PhD. It's where your heart is. Otherwise you'll be more likely to regret at least not trying, you'll always wonder what would have happened if you did. You have plenty of dev experience if it goes wrong to go bac
