Yeah it gives them leverage to force a plea bargain. ie the same as when they extended the charges for Aaron to 13. It's a tough one though because it works both ways. Remember when they put the mobsters away using Tax laws because they cou

I think this whole thing has become a meme now and people are starting to believe what they want to believe.

Im sure having a felony conviction would be terrible for your ordinary person, but with Aaron's resume and public presence I dont think it would be hard for him to find work.

One of the main problems is that once the prosecutors become lenient with suicide risks then every person prosecuted says they're a suicide risk. unfortunate for the people that really are at risk.

If correct, that's pretty damning for MIT. Think of all the hackers that will think twice before applying now.

Have you read them? I've read 2 of them and they have may be relevant. The ideas in them go past visual design and through to communication of ideas etc.

yeah that was my thought. Its hard because it is very difficult for our brains to realise the concept that Reddit was profitable but no-where near as profitable as companies that we've never heard about.

I'll be honest, I thought the same thing as Ed originally. It's a tragic story and I'm sure there is much to learn but let the family grieve rather than make click bait and throw people to the wolves ( ironically what this article is commen

66 days isn't a lot of time. For a start up I can understand, but from MS I thought they would give people that arent happy with skype a chance to think about it.

Yeah but back then laptops would have been in the $1000-2000 range generally. Even without a PSU I would imagine you'd get at least $100-200 from a pawnbroker. IMO if youre robbing or stealing then you're generally pretty desperate or have

to put it more politely ;) Maybe you should do some research to find out about the article before writing comments. If you don't know who 37 signals are then its extremely easy to find out and would probably allow you to frame your argument

A similar story: I read years ago that there was a gang of people that would steal laptops at airports when businessmen were tired and unattentive. The reason they gave was that it was easy to move them (this was 10 years ago so a Macbook

You should trial some adverts, hunches are great, but testing is relatively cheap these days and can make a big difference. Always test your assumptions.

thanks for your reply! Do you find that you get more enjoyment out of these types of games rather than on or offline games where you pay up front without "pay-2-play"?
