It's quite difficult to compete with Google and their revenue/cash hordes when it comes to salary / total comp. Especially if you price the options at the last round's price and discount them some more. Imagine a well to

Congratulations to Zumper. Hopefully your revenue growth is going to continue steady. I estimate you folks probably have on the order of 200k~ users and 10k~ brokers on the platform judging by the numbers of the raise~

Workforce and expenses are closely tied together, and those depend on how much you have to spend. You can't spend 20 million dollars or hire 100 engineers if you don't have the budget for it. I did correct the lowball to 1/10

To put the number in perspective -- this is about how much a single full time engineer will cost to employ. Let's lowball and imagine that OpenBSD in comparison to firefox is 1/100th the size. Mozilla has annual revenues of >30

We pay for Google Apps for everyone in our company, and unfortunately no one used Google Apps. I know some people pay and expense Dropbox on their personal accounts, and if more of our team needed to use Dropbox I can easily see getting on

As a business expense it seems like a no-brainer, especially with features oriented around security like remote wiping, account transferring and more detailed logs.

The collision rate seems pretty high and to someone with a bit of resources (say 500 ips) to go through the ids would take 3~ days at 1 request per second. The party would have a list of of flickr users / email combinations. The best w

The lack of beefier instances is a bit tough to handle -- the largest memory machine is the A7 at 56gb, compared to a cr1.8xlarge at 244.

Ah, so it's GPU bound. So we'll have to wait quite a while for the tech to appear on mobile devices -- the smaller viewport might help, though given the current device resolution soon overtaking monitors... How low level is the re

@gavanwoolery -- what kind of Hardware is the demo running on?

The problem (for the developers) with Threes is that it cost $1.99 to buy. If they made the app free and monetized with ads/iaps (ie, how all major apps monetize), they would have a much more successful app.

This might be a terrible execution of this idea that will cut the amount of discussion on HN by a large amount. Maybe even by 90%. This puts the onus on the older members of the community to do even more work administrating the site -- for

Are apps without iAPs but with ads to be considered 'free'?

by diziet 13y ago
This is silly. At the end of the day, game developers need to get paid for their effort and time spent. The days of $49 boxed games are over (on mobile). The iAP model is proven again and again across different platforms and the majority of

But no serious manager / founder will want to hire David Heinemeier Hansson. DHH is way too ambitious to work for someone else -- he is not a good role for a position even if he is extremely talented on paper.
