Sure, but there have to be lower and upper limits to it. Or would you want a rich guy to pay $750k? Hmm, maybe there shouldn't be an upper limit.

To be clear, I'm talking about highways with a solid divider and no way to change lanes except taking an exit. Also, I've been in one such jam in the Netherlands where everybody drives at a consistent 130 km/h max. Reading th

I've been in one such jam in the Netherlands where there is an upper limit at which everyone consistently (for the most part) drives their cars on the highway. So I don't know if that would help.

In the Netherlands and Germany I've seen traffic jams develop due to drivers slowing down to observe an accident on the other lane. I know this is illegal to do in both countries, but it doesn't keep anyone doing so. I've nev

Before loading the page I thought this might be about hiding the client's ip (that connected to an SMTP server) in the mail headers. Is that possible at all?

I view unsuccessful interviews as a way to see some city I wouldn't have otherwise visited and more importantly get experience with current job interview styles. It takes time, but it's not a total waste. Though, some companies ma

I've encountered companies that are already globally distributed but try to force you to move to one of their offices permanently. I can imagine arguments for it, but the arguments I was presented with were unconvincing and more of the

The games with the highest replay value to me have been GTA 3, GTA Vice City and GTA San Andreas. Haven't played GTA 4 or 5, so don't know if the high replayability factor was kept.

I would argue that the resources spent on (visual) effects is dumb money trying to improve a game where the creators fail to build a better, more engaging, highly replayable game. To this day, I haven't encountered a better FPS than Qu

This and Unreal were the last great software rendered 3d game engines before GPUs became mainstream. EDIT: I should have mentioned the BUILD engine too, written single-handedly by one developer for Duke Nukem 3D.

If you mean striking through some sections in contracts too, but wouldn't you have to do it in both copies to have some level of confidence? I cannot imagine you can do this with, say, an ISP contract where you don't agree with so

Interesting, thanks for the correction. Reading that page, it appears that this due to US IP ownership agreements for employees. Is that correct? If so, why isn't there an exception for personal-time-only contributions by single develo
