NPR Planet Money did an episode on this: "The National Flood Insurance Program (NFIP) is $30 billion in debt to the U.S. Treasury. If it were a private company, it would be bankrupt. And instead of preventing risky behavior, the NFIP m

For a lot of people, new emoji are a great reason to upgrade and not miss out. Apple's been training customers to do this for years.

I found a good name for <$200 on Namejet. Also check out Flippa.com for good names from people willing to sell. A piece of advice that worked for me: don't get stuck on the name. It's hard and it takes time (and sometimes money

News stories are different from editorial, opinion, informational, entertainment, etc. articles. For example, the top article on Google News for me right now is a NYT editorial: "The Jobs Report Is Not Quite as Terrible as It Looks.&qu

Do the roots matter if the rules have never been enforced? .com is flooded, .net and .org haven't meant anything in a couple decades, and many country TLDs are just wordplay that anyone can reg. At least .edu, .gov, and .mil are enforc

Netflix currently has 94 open engineering open reqs, plus another 22 data/analytics open reqs. Perusing through the list should give you a sense of how complicated their products are: http://jobs.netflix.com/jobs.php

It's also heavily populated with people who work at or with Google's competitors, of which there are many more. Bias and differing opinions are everywhere.

All the people who pick up coffee at Dunkin, Starbucks, and McDonald's seem to think so. The cost of Keurig over making your own is a pittance compared to the multiple you are paying at those places, but millions do that daily.

I'd agree if it was B2C, but I think B2B is different. Logo soup can work surprisingly well for establishing trust. Also, their website is probably not their biggest acquisition channel ... it's probably offline BD.

Isn't that behavior -- asking to do something before it does it -- the behavior that you'd like? I would be upset if it went ahead and did that, and then I discovered the feature later.

You can search on completed listings. Looks like only 2 copies were listed, both unsold. Also, it seems like a long way to get Bill Gates to write a guest column in the WSJ to make $260 (top bid $81 now).

Do you think he should have recommended a book that was otherwise hard to get? I think people here, after reading this article, would have thought it ridiculous that the book wasn't available on Amazon. My guess is that it is legitim

I was commenting to a friend that the limited functionality in these types of services have very steep edges. It's great when you're in the middle, but trying to do something a little bit different can lead to long, poor, difficul

I don't think anyone suggests that it's that simple. This entire space is young and evolving quickly. Identity and data sync is a good place to start, though. For your example of a leaderboard, Parse has Cloud Code. It's desi

I think Google banned the domain from Adsense. I had a neglected UGC site that gradually became inundated with shady links and content, and this happened to me. Perhaps a site with low clicks and repeated, short-lived ad serves is worth ban

The article doesn't mention the email contained an attachment. I've sent and received a lot of emails with confidential data in the form of people chatting, parts of a spreadsheet pasted in, or an entire HTML automated report.

How would you fix this problem? Because something similar happened to me. Someone pasted in a bunch of confidential info into an email that was for discussion, with a few replies back and forth. After a hallway discussion with another colle

To add to the other comments, proprietary Google OS integrations are unlikely if the app exists on iOS where such things don't exist but have similar features. A proprietary Google web service integration is a potential reason to build

Only if apps don't matter to that target user base. Most people will probably not want to go without Facebook, Instagram, Snapchat, Pandora, Netflix, etc., and devs won't build for a small user base (just ask Microsoft or Blackber
