He has links and things providing his point. I agree with him, it was clearly a corruption thing from the start. Otherwise, why would people need to be scanned while leaving the airport . It only makes sense for either (a) creating usel

I don't really like this attitude. It strikes me as a built-to-flip style of business. I'm personally not planning to get rich from one app, but rather I want to create a bunch of apps that serve various markets. Hopefully, at some point,

Fair enough. I didn't think you were lying, I just wondered why your battery life was so much worse than mine.

I'd say it pretty clearly does. If it were a rational decision with no mental illness involved, the person could realize they can just pull a real world "why_". Just disappear, go somewhere else, be someone else and start over where no

Militant atheists often claim that religion, in the hands of the simple minded, is very dangerous. Thanks for providing an example on how this isn't unique to religion.

Looks like an automated response to get you signed up to a bogus spam mailing list. Why would I want to hear updates about things she isn't interested in my opinion on anyway?

Complete waste of time. To politicians; "Done completely online" = "not much effort" = "not really that bothered about it". Phone calls get a similar response.

>Also the battery died during a single flight from Europe to the US, when I needed it the most. Really? I was playing "Galaxy of Fire 2" for a whole flight and the battery lasted from Germany to USA east coast.

The thing I see coming up so much is arrogance. E.g. assuming "our" generation is so "sciency" and rational and previous generations were so superstitious and stupid.

wtf? Having a business is "selling out"? IMO, having your own business is about the only thing that isn't "selling out".

>I suspect most people still want the comfort of a stable job or career. I suspect a lot of people are starting to realize there is no such thing.

Completely agree. It's a shame some people are so desperate for work they would even work for Zynga which is the startup equivalent to telemarketers.

Everywhere else doesn't even make you file and a bill has already been introduced to take away these exemptions (they offensively claim they can "save" money by removing these exemptions).

I live next door and see plenty of French news and they don't appear in any more trouble than anyone else. Do you realize that the first world country most opposite (the US) has around 20% unemployment?

You must not be aware of Pincus' history. Then again, people working for him must not have been either.

I'm not advocating anything. I'm saying that I won't be surprised if at some point people are going to start realizing that "being the better person" means they lose and the other party wins and that the establishment sides with the riches

If this is truly the case then Pincus is so incompetent as to be dangerous. The market has correctly identified it for culling and it should die. Honestly, with the bizarre position you've taken over this issue one would have to imagine yo

"Indian giver" isn't an ethnic slur. It's actually attacking the people who came over, promised the native americans land and then took it back when they found out it was valuable.

>Pincus at least seems to be acting rationally about the future of Zynga, while the employees (even if they have reason to be annoyed by this) come off as being motivated purely by greed, spite, and short-term considerations. Talk about

by danssig 15y ago
So the question becomes; why are they firing you? Is it to prevent you from keeping your part of the agreement or because you're crap? Stupidly, Zynga has proven that it was not the latter.

Well, to be honest, I'm torn between my disgust at these scumbags and my lack of pity for people who were working at Zynga . I mean, the place never tried to hide the fact that they were a bunch of scumbags as far as I know. If you know

Simple solution: never make that compromise. A bird in the hand and all that.

Tech needs a real union. We've been exploited for quite some time and organizing is the only way to deal with it. If movie stars took the same approach as tech people, Tom Cruise would get $30k per movie and worthless stock options.

Wrong. They're saying "I know I gave you this, and put a lock in so you had to stay, but now it's worth more than I think you deserve so I'm going back on my agreement. Sorry you worked here so long for below market wages".
