   Wingsuit pilot & programmer here. The reason Wingsuit BASE Jumpers keep dying is that you shouldn't jump your wingsuit off a @#$%ing mountain. Please stick to the planes and the helicopters that you're used to.

   I still don't think facebook is safe long term. I've been on facebook off and on for 12 years, and honestly is was only really cool back in college. I suppose there is some value in the whole 'real identity' thing. But t

   This ^^^. My Dad is always talking into his phone to send text messages. I really want to tell him, "Dad, you're doing it wrong. Nobody wants to hear you narrate your text messages."

   Amazon hides a lot of its profits as R&D expenses. I'm not an accountant, but I think it's sort of a tax dodging scheme. Refrain from paying dividends, pump all of your would-be-profits into R&D, and essentially 'brea

   I started blogging recently to document my experience starting a startup. In my posts I just make sure to mention where I'm at so people know that I don't necessarily know what I'm talking about yet :)

   I use DuckDuckGo as my default search engine aswell, even though I use Google too. I like checking both to compare their results. I think DuckDuckGo could rival Google if they were a little more innovative. I actually tried to contact Gabri

   Just curious, how many applications did you receive for Summer 2017?

    Here's one of their problems: Check out their advertising page ( https://advertising.soundcloud.com/ ). You have to contact them if you want to advertise on their platform. You ought to be able to upload your 15-second a

    If companies can't afford to give programmers their own offices, then they should just let them work remotely from their own private offices in their homes.

    I use Medium because I think their blogging software is superior to their competitors (WordPress). If there was something out there as good as Medium that I could install on my own servers I might do that. This seems to be the hierarchy of

    My blog is hosted by Medium on my own domain and I think it kicks ass. All of the issues the author brought up in his post seemed pretty minor to me. Just my opinion, but Medium has the best blogging software out there, by far.

    I think Medium's financial problem is that they aren't charging for their services. My blog is hosted by Medium at my own custom domain, and the only thing they charged me for was the SSL certificate. They ought to charge for that

    Twitter's problem is that they let Ev Williams walk away from the company, and then he goes and creates Medium. Medium could have been a product of Twitter Inc., and then no one would be talking about their lack of growth.

    I think websites, in general, tend to get a lot of bot traffic. My website doesn't have anything valuable to scrape, but I still get 100 hits from bot traffic every day.

    I think that's sort of what RSS was going for, but it doesn't seem to have really taken off. Maybe we need an RSS 2.0.

    Yeah I'm pretty sure that DuckDuckGo is powered by Yahoo/Bing which really just means, Microsoft is powering DuckDuckGo's search engine for the most part. I'm sure DDG puts their own spin on things as well, but Microsoft

    What a horrible idea. Their original user interface consisting of a logo, a search bar, and two buttons is iconic and made up a great deal of what set google apart from its competitors. I know the first time I used Google in the late 90&#x2
