Very interesting game. Unfortunately I found it just devolved into random clicking - there weren't enough clues to give me much strategy. Gave up when the grid got to ~9x9, and it was just a waste trying to get it working.

Agreed. Everything I've seen from them, every time I've interacted, I've felt like I needed a shower. They're scummy, shitty guys, and hopefully ejecting that founder will help them.

It's very frequently measured with pretty standard experimental designs involving treatment and control groups. Track sales to each group, and you can easily figure out the return on ad spend.

I feel really bad for Chad. I agree with @didgeoridoo that it feels like I just watched a dog get kicked. He's on a quixotic quest toward a certain kind of world, with openness and transparency. Unfortunately when he tries to interface

(I don't particularly agree that it's well written.) However I entirely agree. By the definition of "who gets to be CEO," every job except senior executive is dead end!

I think it's a great start. I agree with most of the comments here: you have a lot of stuff nobody wants to read about, and not nearly enough white space! Here's an updated version that cuts some of the junk (somewhat arbitrarily,

You want the most important thing first. For new graduates education will (almost always) be first. For those with experience it typically comes last, where it's also distinctive but less prominent. So I'm guessing you've mos

As soon as I realized this, it actually became quite helpful. Saying something is "easy" or "obvious" is useful! It may demotivate if done poorly. However with a proper teaching approach it also signals what SHOULD be ob

Informal is totally fine, but I found the relatively low writing quality distracting.

I'm not sure I understand what you're suggesting. To me this says that HBO is becoming more like most other content providers.

As others have mentioned AppleSeed for non-devs has been around for years. I've been testing major OSX releases since the end of 2008 for Snow Leopard - friend of a friend at Apple was looking for people to test exchange integration, I

Such quantity? It's like 2 million units. That's roughly equivalent to a mildly popular android phone model.

Yes, google docs is still used. Several of the people I did phone screens with commiserated that it's a poor way to code online, but they seemed to have 0 choice in the matter. Yahoo used collabedit.com, which was much more pleasant (b

The list of companies who have meaningful numbers of users and haven't been hacked is growing vanishingly small. You'll also notice that no payment information was breached, substantially better than most other similar events. Plu

That's an incredibly classist point of view. I have plenty of friends at a top institution that can barely afford rent and to eat after their 2 hour commute. If they had to, sure, they'd find a way to sacrifice something to pay fo

It's an interesting point. However she needs to be clear that the measure that matters isn't student to adjunct, or anything like that. The thing that matters is % of student hours taught by graduate students, vs adjuncts, vs tenu

While I think the TSA is largely a sack of shit, Israel's solution is hardly a panacea. Israel has basically 1 major airport, and 2 minor airports. They further are based heavily on profiling. I don't expect the Israeli model woul

For me, it's because Medium is frequently poorly researched and/or written blogspam. The URL provides no context about who or what wrote it.

I think you should learn from his later conclusion: He realized that people matter much more than money. Don't miss your children's childhoods for a few extra bucks, it's not worth it.

Any headline which ends in a question mark can also be answered by the word yes. Whether either is correct is another matter entirely.
