I didn't learn anything from the article. What effects are you forecasting?

Why don't you think he was? I personally was all-for his cause (and everything silk road stood for), but I think he's probably guilty of the murder thing and they claim evidence to back it up. Edit: Funny how I'm getting down

They've been around a lot longer and have a lot of expertise. I think you'll find that they'll perform better during benchmarking of hardware and have superior network performance and uptime (I've personally experienced

They'll get funding, but the models will change and adapt. Ie. Spotify and Netflix are early carnations of what what could come.

Hang on, you've brought too much logic to this discussion. This violates the ease of creating clickbait!

Digitalocean is $5 and Linode $10 for the smallest plans. Linode used to be $20 for smallest, but upgraded their hardware and dropped their prices a while ago.

That's a very popular use case and something that has allowed digitalocean to grow so fast.

They've been hit with a coldfusion 0day in the past, but the stuff that has happened to them could happen to anyone. I wouldn't have much to critique about their security practices.

It blows my mind that this is happening. Back in the day, there were a thousand cheapo VPS providers out there with similar rates. But DO were the ones to put up an extremely simplified interface to spinning up VMs and that has seen them sk

You could say the same thing about Youtube in the beginning. Except for the fact that Youtube was even worse because people were uploading copyrighted material there and it was actually hosted by them and existed in the US. Whereas TPB was

Damn, Lyft paid a $500k settlement. I wonder if that's something they can easily afford.

20 days is mandatory where I live and I don't need to take them all if I don't want to (they still accrue). I get along just fine.

I like how you imply that 2-3 weeks is a long time, plus longer than your colleagues. This makes an unlimited vacation policy completely pointless if you ask me.
174.
by butwhy 12y ago
Why do companies even try out these weird policies? They've gone from having unlimited days (then admitted it was a mistake for 2 whole years) and are now blindly trying out another unusual strategy. I don't see why they don'

What you are quoting is out of context. The sentence prior to the one you quoted mentions her specifically. So the proceeding sentence seems to use her personal experience as a basis to then make a broader claim in a more general context.

It does. The questioner asked her if she understood the game before she started her code challenge. She proceeded to extrapolate from this by calling such questioning "belittling and sexist", implying that they're only asking

There is absolutely no basis for that claim in this particular case. I'd expect them to ask all candidates if they understand the scenario, regardless of sex. But guess what? We have absolutely no idea because there is no data on it. A

by butwhy 12y ago
So.. the company asks a candidate if they understand the game, and just because the author of this post is female, she wildly speculates that they must only be asking her because she is female. This is ludicrous. Sounds like a feminist.
