Interestingly, as an avid poker player and sports better, I only bet big on sure things and bet small on the things I think won't pay out.

I just turned 22. I rake in a little over a $100k all things included (salary+stock options+side jobs). However, let it be known that I'm terribly strapped for time. If you want more money, go out and get it.

I've kind of always felt like R&D is the heart and soul of silicon valley. It'll be a shame if things pan out this way.

I hope he makes the students code. Teaching any student anything without the student understanding the need for it is probably not a good idea. Thinking back to my undergraduate mindset, I am sure I wouldn't care about what is being said at

What about using git to backup an entire hard drive? Maybe using bitbucket (or github if you don't mind sharing your data with the world). Living on the cloud has never been so easy :-D

I've always thought people have their own special style of writing. Now that I've read your comment I realize how naive an idea that is. Would you happen to know the various categories of writing? I'm going to search google, but I am intrig

Although I never learned Java, I would point you to that language. I would also suggest C# or Objective-C. Really anything with a gui or IDE will work just fine for beginners. Contrary to most folks, I view being able to write efficient and

I didn't have the luxury of ruby or python when I learned to program HTML--this was sometime in 1997/1998. I had cgi and perl, although I didn't use them too much.

I literally laughed out loud when I saw this. I have relatives in india, who are good software engineers (but not AMAZING), and they get WAY WAY more than $6000 USD a year. Infographic Fail.

When you guys started the company, was the plan to sell out? If not, and you guys are making good money, then why sell? If you guys would like to try something new, that is a different story. But given you are happy where you are and you re

one of the main reasons I stopped using facebook was for this very reason. While I was in the lab, working my but off, all of my friends were having fun. It was very clear I was alone and anti-social (even though this is far from the truth)

why not modify your schedule by season? It looks like one can avoid the cons by getting up "with the sun." I might give this a try! I can totally see how this can be motivating!

I'm still holding to my argument that black-listing is a fools errand. Spam is in unlimited supply. What we REALLY need is a white-listing system, which is probably easier said than done...

what law states entrepreneurs are smart? Not to be a downer, but you've probably only heard of the successful ones. I'm sure there are plenty more who aren't successful. Smart is a consequential call, isn't it?

this may actually prove to be a useful thing. If you aren't excited enough to take your project to completion, then maybe folding was a good idea after all... Just so you know, I am the same way. However, instead of ending up with 100 medio

Matlab, R, and S-PLUS are all different animals. They are usually used for different things (and what they are used for can vary from person to person). For instance, I use matlab for object oriented scientific programming, R for quick and
