It's not how things usually work out. Cisco and Juniper aren't friendly competitors. They are each trying as hard as possible to destroy the other. And the employees at each company feel the same. Less so at Cisco because they are so mu

"Networking needs to define a format spec for routing and switching, and then have vendors meet the spec." Please check out the IETF (www.ietf.org) -- This is exactly how it works. But BGP has no security, is complicated from an implementat

So Salesforce (CRM) made a "strategic investment" in this round. My bet is that this is just the first part of an acquisition which was unable to be completed at this time. If I were a betting man, I'd say CRM will acquire UA (read: finish

Oh, I see. I guess I've only backed products or software or things where there was a deliverable... even a book once!

What? You get your money back with Kickstarter? I've never heard of that... I'm pretty sure I've lost a few hundred bucks on failed kick-starters... I mean, they meet the goal, but the person never delivers.

The answer is no. It's no from every angle (financial, anti-trust, technical, IP, strategy, etc.) except maybe some bizarre emotional angle where L&S want to show Jerry that they won -- which I doubt exists since it's obvious to everyo

This is probably true. And, this is a better outcome than most companies ever see. There are a great group of people at SimpleGeo, and while I never understood how it would be a big business, I was always confident that if a big opportunit

The comment the speaker made was in poor taste and it was inappropriate. Simple as that. The speaker should recognize that and simply say as much. Not a lot more needs to be said. There's no way to defend or explain the comment. And as

Arguing against threaded / nested comments must be someone's sick joke.

It takes money, and it takes time that I'd rather spend building my company, but it's super fucking important. And I am positive that I am making a difference and that my actions will directly lead to this being dragged out longer, being am

This is absolutely not the TLDR. It's this and it's so much worse. I'm in DC right now trying to put a stop to this. Everything about the DMCA and safe harbor gets thrown out the window. These folks even have the audacity to redefine the

This is off-topic, but since PG reads this thread: Please add back the "by " in front of each comment. It was useful because if I wanted to see all comments by PG on a page, I could Ctrl-F and just look for "by pg" but now I can't -- if I

It's worth pointing out that this man is exceptionally frugal. It's a great strategy if you can be happy with a modest spend throughout your life. This is why the guy who owns the laundromat down the street is a millionaire -- great stable

Nice UI -- The application doesn't move the needle for me, but it's certainly a nice looking service. As an aside, I think one of the things people like about Facebook's timeline is the intelligence involved in deciding what to show and wha

I hadn't considered my greatest fear, but now I recognize it: Finding ways to extend human life indefinitely should be our generation's "Space Race." We already suffer from over-population and pollution. Death is a key piece of the demog

I know, and it's not. It really is distributed. You have a hard-coded list of 13 root servers. You don't have to use them.
