Please. I bought appl shares at $130 just 6 months ago. 6 months of gain is lost, not 3 years.

There doesn't seem to be any reason to fuel the fires of any intended or unintended conflict here. You know - high road and all.

It certainly seems a lot easier to get a huge valuation from Wall Street than from Sand Hill Road. A lot of these "mega-valuations" (zillow, ning, slide, etc) have gotten funding from PE, hedge, and investment houses instead of classic VC.

I'm sure the dream of becoming independently wealthy was plenty stimulating.

Agreed. Sometimes the same behavior, implemented with slightly different intentions, can have vastly different effects. nickb isn't far from a link spammer - he might very well be detected as one by a poor algorithm on a lesser site. Instea

Most people can't tell the difference between 1080p and 720p resolution at any normal home viewing size or viewing distance. The issue of compression is a bit more hard to answer, since all these formats all use the same codec. I have no id

For a while I thought the only way to quit vi was to cntl-z and then kill.

I know - I actually meant that a popular consumer app probably has way worse scaling issues than a white-label enterprise system would have.

Yes, but this still doesn't actually hurt the people that hold mortgages (the homeowners). Whether or not my bank can handle the fact that I'm about to foreclose has nothing to do with my ability to (not) pay.

Warren Buffett would beg to differ with this strategy. If you trade on value, you shouldn't really care what the market is doing. If risk is mispriced, buy more, even if the price is going down and you are losing money in the short term.

5) Build a robust system that won't fail from heavy enterprise use, sadly, Twitter would never make it. Huh?

there is a huge gap right now (read market opportunity) in desktop compositing software. The options that remain are either very expensive or not very functional.

Acquired by ebay. Not sure what happened after that.

How is it possible to have 20 years of java or ruby experience?

I do this too. I'm convinced it's a vestigial habit of the "old" web, where it was very common to have a crazy img based background and text that you couldn't read. I found myself highlighting text on the web all the time just so I could ge

More important than the 90% who said they are happy is what data and insight gained from the other 10%.

These guys executed a very incredible PR hit this week. They're all over the news in lots of different outlets.

As time goes on, cherry-picking the list of amazing albums becomes easier, since you judge not just the music, but those albums' influence on all the acts of the next 30 years. That said, 1969 surely was a watershed year for rock music, and

have you ever been to a bazaar? Or is it just a rhetorical device?

yes, but an unmanned plane must be more fun since you can do crazy things without fear of death:)

this is such an amazing departure for FSJ. Break character but become something completely different and equally satirical. I love it.

Oh please. It's not about pixel resolution. It's about the amount of realism in each pixel. Pixar and FX houses render frames at the same 1080p resolutions - but they do them at over 2-10 hours PER FRAME. The GPU is getting better, but the

Most VC funds have a 10 year lifetime, so all investment returns are for some period less than that.

This is something of a "big deal". Disney has not traditionally been in the acquisition game since the ill-fated go.com acquisition of the Eisner era. Also, 20 small acquisitions (vs. the $650m one of Club Penguin) is a very interesting st
