It briefly became popular in the otaku culture from an anime called Hunter X Hunter.

Did Magnus play against this? Is there a way we can see the game?

I noticed that the application requires disclosure of metrics related to fundraising. Is this a major consideration for approval? Are there any specific things are you looking for? (hyper-growth, good product, high revenue, etc)

I admire them - they use 20+ SaaS products, and most of them are extremely useful for automation leading to saving tons of time and effort. Unfortunately, they're quite expensive for people just starting out with zero funding.

Just to clarify: CRSP is great but not the gold standard. A lot of big comapnies use services from Xignite,CaptialIQ and ICE Data.

This is valid but what can Facebook do? What steps should the company take to ensure this doesn't happen? Do they have the capability to fix the status quo? Is there an algorithm that can prevent this from happening? We don't know

And they just posted a "rebuttal" video. https://twitter.com/JamesOKeefeIII/status/935283210606477312

There's a lot of people who are fearful that Facebook probably knows too much about its users and that could be problematic. But what do you expect? How do you want our future to be shaped? Innovation, including AI, requires tremendous

So was the stolen data deleted? This could've easily just been part of a "bug county," no? Except when you actually steal data, you're not eligible to bounty. This means the hackers had decent leverage and negotiation sk

I believe this was part of either an E911 requirement or CIQ(Carrier IQ) feature. Nothing new and nothing crazy.

MediaTek is only suitable for mid-tier phones (at least when I was in the OEM industry). Exynos is only for Samsung. A lot of OEMs try to make their own LTE chips, but it's not easy. Qualcomm is still very much relevant in the phone in

Why wouldn't they just M&A? Just curious.

There are a lot of good free alternatives on the comments but I'm curious how reliable they are. Obviously, Xignite is the leader in paid service but it's way too expensive for startups (approximately 20k for the cheapest option).

I wasn't on the Android development team but rather I was in management, but my colleague was and that's the information I got when I tried using his workstation (he specifically works on Android framework). I actually never check

you're right - SSD makes a big difference too.

This is a side note, but most members of the Android team at Google used to have 256 GB of RAM on their computers to compile Android (the entire build). When we used Android Studio, it was blazing fast so most devs that didn't work wit

I speak three languages fluently and I can attest to Chatterbug's methodology. However, there's still much research to be done in the field. I participate in a lot of linguistic research since my case is a slightly more unique tha

Most of the responsibility, minus the technical interview, seems like it could be done by an AI sometime in the future anyway. No more complaints afterwards!

The transaction fee for $1 is still a lot. For example, in Stripe's case it would be 2.9% + 30¢ so about 33 cents. I guess if that's an acceptable margin, it's no big deal, but I was just curious if your company got discount

How does your company manage to use Stripe and Paypal for microtransactions with their fees? Do you get a special discount? 25 cents - minus fees means there's barely any left.

Disclaimer: Used to work for an OEM With critical bugs like these, it's certain Google will require recent devices that have enough affected users to be updated ASAP. Expect an update within in a few weeks.

This is just an early iteration for the future. Imagine the possibilities while travelling, attending conferences, eating at foreign restaurants. Can't wait until this becomes commonplace.

I have higher hopes for their next phone. This first edition was way too basic for my taste. It also showed a lack of experience in dealing with camera. With the funding they have, I'd rather have them do some sort of acqui-hire over a

doesn't HTC also have a US R&D division (most likely they do to work with North American carriers and Qualcomm). Do you know what's happening to them?

I'm wondering what kind of legal tasks they cover for poor startups. Incorporation and whatnot is mostly automated , trivial and inexpensive but if they can help out with lawsuits, patent, trademarks, and general legal inquiries in an

My understanding is that they value people who are passionate about Tesla and SpaceX products. The logic is that if they truly care about what they're working on, work-life balance and pay can be sacrificed. I know several people that

This is a tricky exchange. Both sides could've done better. To be honest though, a company like Facebook gets so many resumes that these mistakes are inevitable. Not saying it's acceptable, but it's just the nature of recruit

I know your comment is more of a joke, but Uber has already seen enough success to never end up on this kind of list. They might be in a different list along with Pets.com or Myspace though.
