I think it depends on the kinds of things that you post online. If you make the assumption that whatever you post online can be linked to your real life -- even when you're posting anonymously -- then you'll act responsibly just a

A few thoughts: (1) You might want to stick to a more traditional landing page to help increase your conversion. The way your page is designed right now doesn't scream out to me to sign up or anything. There's a reason many landin

Agree on the spirit of the post. The name really doesn't matter as much. But there are considerations to think about nonetheless. For example, is the name's domain name available? Can the domain name be misrepresented? eg. expert

Really sorry to hear that this is happening to you. First of all, it's good you found it now rather than, say, months from now. Second and most importantly, focus on taking care of your health first. I once knew someone who had somethi

If your firm did indeed commit a unlawful offence, you should call them out on it. Your career at this firm is over either way. Last thing you want to do is to be dragged back in when their offence is revealed and they use you as a scapegoa

We've actually already solved this problem pre Apple Watch. It's called Blister Packs, which basically is an arrangement of the medications of when a patient is supposed to take them.

It's not bad, but definitely feeling what it's like to be at Rough Drop Ver 1.0. You can improve the overall design of your site by focusing a little on the typography. For instance, your font stack is currently "Arial, Helve

To the OP, I feel for you. Your app made someone over at the IT dept feel inadequate. Remember, some older IT person is trying to protect their job, no matter how crappy they're doing it. Your app, as you had mentioned, was much better

About to launch a Saas here as well and have been struggling in regards to the free trial thing. I think it depends on the market and the business tastes of the founders/owners. I've ran a couple of businesses, and I tend to agree

I don't see btc as being able to retain its hundreds of dollars in exchange currency value. Imagine you have 1 mil usd worth of btc, and then imagine trying to dump it all on the open market. You would probably find a widening gap in t

Agree with the point that to defer to expert opinion may not always be the best choice. But in the case of one's health, sometimes it's not simply by "doing one's own research" that will solve one's problem.

Disclosure - I'm an actual medical doctor. * I agree with the overall theme of the article. That is, a lot of people go into medicine thinking that they will be "rich". And when they come out at the other end of the tunnel, t

That was my first thought as well. Whoever came up with this idea may have more countermeasures, however. For instance, every page may provide a unique enough punctuational fingerprint to identify the buyer.

Nice slides, but I couldn't but laugh at the idea that the next time there's a leak at the NSA it would turn out to be the guy who was in charge of making the slides.

Just an opinion, but I don't think Beijing will be too successful in attacking Apple. Chinese people don't look at all foreign brands the same. Sure, Yum foods can be attacked and that can hurt their sales. But don't forget Yum sells a chea

What I find incredibly irritating about this blog response by Heroku is that it took a very visible post on Hackernews for them to act and reconsider their way of doing business. They saw the potential loss in customers, and then acted. Wha

I think unless you've played with options, you won't have a clue why a close like $500 is a big deal. This basically causes all calls/puts option contracts on either side to be worthless. It is commonly accepted "fact" (note the quotations)

Like so many others, back in 2008 when I bought the MEAP all I really knew was alert("Hello!"); and associating onclicks inline to DOM elements. It's a good read though, and now that it's finally released, I'll take a look at it again. Th

This is the same approach I take as well. I find as a programmer/business person of ONE, if I spend too much time customizing at the onset I'll spend way too much time on things that won't matter. Customization, colors, etc can come later w
