Did any of them try it? Just because you sign something doesn't mean you can be held to it. It would be worth a try.

Executives make multiples of those numbers. Why should it be unheard of that any software developer ever make that?

"There are two types of companies: those that work hard to charge customers more, and those that work hard to charge customers less. Both approaches can work. We are firmly in the second camp." I've always had a lot of respect for Bezos and

When I use Handbrake to rip directly from DVD to Apple TV format the video comes out at just over 700 megs.

How would Samsung fight on price here? Amazon is using the Fire as a loss leader. They very likely lose money on every sale. But they make it up on extra Amazon conversions. What would Samsung make up their losses on?

Europe is a bigger market than the US is.

Well, the important thing is to learn and adjust. Remember; if you are good but underpricing you are not just hurting yourself. Your potentially hurting every local person in the same space by decreasing the value of those services.

If clients are paying this price then it sounds like his pricing is correct.

Yes, but if what he said did happen to be true wouldn't it also be dismissed?

I understand you're not bashing other languages, I just get tired of these tautologies getting trotted out anytime someone complains about perl so I decided to challenge them. >The author claims that where most people write C in Perl, h

Show me a modern, general purpose language for which there isn't more than one way to do most things and I'll show you a language you don't know very well. Even Python, who's motto would be closer to "one right way to do it" always has more

So, it's a general purpose programming language like a lot of other languages are too? The complaint is obviously that Perl is uglier than it needs to be. You can see this when you compare it to other languages that are just as (if not mo

Uh... are you unaware of their track record? I don't see why they would suddenly start acting responsibly now .

He posted a link, you just threw out a sentence. Care to back up your claim?

What is this doing here? Flagged.

This is a myth. What about the employees? We are also getting vastly more done with vastly less. Why is it only the CEO's that are seeing the benefit of scale here. The reason the salary increase has been concentrated on the top and ne

Smalltalk/Seaside is a brilliant environment. Being able to debug a web application back end while it's running is really handy. Having said that, this article has a bizarre name. There was nearly no comparison of anything. The guy actua

Hrm, what languages are you open to doing library work for? Any further constraints (e.g. only OSS, etc.)?

Yea, because it's only Apple who sues people. It would have been irony if a real patent troll company got sued for patent violations.
530.
by danssig 15y ago
So are they suing everyone else too? Sounds like the whole computing world is in violation of their massive 5,000 patent portfolio.

This seems like over-analysis to me. Why is said villain going to be printing a gun? To rob money, right? And what is he going to do with this stolen money? Buy a car? Why doesn't he just print that instead? I think when the day arri

Now apply that statement to other things we use today that collect a lot of data on us.

Yes! Why didn't we think of this before, we could just... go back to doing what we were doing before that never worked very well! People already complain about too much competition on the App store. On the web you're competing with virus'

I hope that guy quit on the spot. As long as managers get away with this kind of stupidity they're going to keep doing it.

This isn't ironic, it's completely expected. The people most effected can't afford to come out to something like this. Their boss (or bosses for those that work multiple jobs) aren't going to give them any more time off than they must.

Why would someone even bother talking to a reporter from Fox News? If the SNL fake news sent out an anchor would you participate in the mock interview or wait for a real reporter?

>If I showed you this stat, you would lean on taxing the poor more No I wouldn't. The ones who are getting most of the benefit should be paying the most for the service.

Why would this reduce anything? If anything I would expect this sort of customer bullying to get them targeted even more. After all, if customers have their credit card info stolen, get robbed and then can't even sue Sony for incompetence
