1. do you really think that dropbox sends everyone home and shuts off the lights? That's a joke and you know it. 2. These files are all on our computers. I suspect that if dropbox blows up and does just go home and shut off the lights,

I for one LOVED wave and used it every single day. My friends and I spent many months looking for a viable replacement. fwiw we settled on glassboard if anyone else liked wave and never found a suitable replacement. it doesn't have thr

I suspect you are greatly in the minority there (based on both my personal conversations with others on the topic, and the linked picture showing far more red than green. Perhaps you should move to an area that is on the eastern edge of a t

There are lots of things that get run on a time of day basis that can't be controlled. I work for myself from home, so I can do whatever I want, but my wife is a teacher. They have a very set schedule as it happens. Most employers that

Haha right. Almost everyone flushed out in CS1. "I want to make games!" to "This shit is hard, I'm gonna get a business degree." As it happens when you have projects that take about 4x (or more) the amount of time a

It is interesting to see that much more of the world errs to the side of having sun later in the day. As someone who lives just on the other side of a timezone line in a green area, I can definitely see the appeal. It gets dark at 4-4:30 in

At our school, by the time you reached 2nd year most everyone disappeared, male and female. Fall semester sophomore year was about 25% of fall semester freshmen.

Eric Schmidt was on the board at Apple.

It functions as such. Developers make a product, they convince Apple to stock that product, and Apple takes a cut when they sell it. You can argue that it shouldn't be like that, but you can't really argue that it ISN'T like

Can we get rid of the absurd disgust over the huge price of 99 cents people pay for apps? If he thinks the app is better being simpler, let him make his app better. It doesn't matter if he "offers" a refund or not. They can a

And yet Apple is making Exxon type money and still has a multiple like Exxon instead of Google.

This is silly. Expectations for phones and tablets are crazy, specifically when talking about apple. I read things daily that say apple is done for talking about both phones and tablets. The market share numbers aren't THAT important w

Now if only Apple would approve apps to work with them. I have the integration done, it's approved and whitelisted by pebble for their MFI program, and Apple rejects it for not being in their MFI program. Thanks Apple.

The question is, how far will Apple go down this path. Will they kill any developer with a health and fitness tracking app, or just provide the tools to make our apps better? Until reading this article, I was excited for the possibilities o

You know, I thought the same thing until I got a Pebble to do some development on. Turns out, I really like getting notifications on my wrist. Lets me know if it's actually something I need to get my phone out for. Also, it's easi

Wait, we're going to stop listening to music? I can see plenty of arguments for Apple falling, but that is not one of them.

apple had 40 billion more revenue, and 10 billion more profit. THAT is a ton of money.

AAPL EPS - 14.50 GOOG EPS - 12.01 AAPL goes down 8% to 500 GOOG goes up 4% to 1182 I love Google and it is a great business, but for the life of me I can't understand how they get a 30 PE and Apple gets an 8 PE.

I saw that the other day, it's pretty fantastic. Trademarking "Candy" and "Saga" is pretty absurd. Trademarking "Candy Crush Saga" is perfectly reasonable. We'd also accept "Candy Crush".

I don't think you have to be a conglomerate to have diversified product lines. They were just a PC company for 20 years. Then they added iPod, then iPhone, then iPad. On top of that they have itunes and apps which are by themselves a l

Um, Apple? Microsoft gets a lot of flack but frankly it has done pretty well. It makes a lot of money in several different divisions outside of windows and office.

When an armed intruder is breaking into my house? Yes shooting them is in fact my first go-to defense. When someone else is intending to do harm to me or someone I love I'm not going to wait around for the police to get there 30 minute

Actually, castle doctrine does give you the right shoot someone breaking into your home in almost every state. It is exactly the way our current society is run.

That's the interesting thing. I made more money than I've ever made last year while working fewer hours than I ever had. Things are going well for all intents and purposes, but building a house and having a kid or two is scary on

It's interesting, currently my business (bootstrapped and small) is doing just fine. Profitable, making more than I used to working for someone else, and I'm STILL scared shitless most of the time. The wife and I want to build a h

There were a lot of "ifs" in that comment. Unlikely he has 300k in savings, if he did he wouldn't be scared. Also unlikely his cost of living is low if he lives anywhere near the valley and has a wife and/or kids. If you

Pretty sure this is already a thing. I think some major universities have done some studies on/using EVE. I don't currently have any links though sadly.
