Then the solution in those situations is to leave that environment. Loving the bullies is equivalent to doing nothing.

How much does it cost you to divert your attention to fixing someone else's bugs? It's all just a question of economic efficiency. Being able to pay for priority bugfixes is efficient.

When you look at how Jobs quit Apple and sold his shares, the fact that he's even a billionaire is pretty impressive. He made all the money from NeXTSTEP and Pixar.

What would Putin's motivation be to make DDoS extortion attempts? Means, motive, opportunity. Putin has no motive to extort pennies from gambling websites. He has better ways to make money. The NSA has no motive to make the Twitter worm. Bu

Israel has been pretty public about its desire to stop the Iranian nuclear program. This kind of plausibly deniable attack sounds just like what Israel has been wanting. And they have the talent to get the job done. So why not? A nation sta

Money that comes from the public is a vote of confidence. But Clinton was impeached by a political process where money was not the main issue. The public as a whole seems to have been on Clinton's side, but the will of the public was not re

Yes - but I'm phrasing it differently. Aaron Greenspan sees Mark's immorality as a negative. Society sees it as positive.

Society rewards people who contribute to society with dollars. Society, with its money, is voting that it doesn't really care about Zuck's slight immorality. It actually prefers that he sacrifices his friendships and breaks a few laws in or

P.S. If you consider HN to be pg's personal playground, conceptually speaking it may already be monetized due to pg feeling that the knowledge/value/exposure he gains from HN leads to him being more profitable. It's sort of a secondary form

I don't really believe that. I think HN could easily be monetized by charging subscription fees. The quality of the content is so much higher than your typical magazine and people pay tons of money for those. Another way to monetize it woul

At the same time, organizational psychologists seem to recognize that subcultures actually play a vital part of corporations and that they should, generally, not be killed off. They are the watchdogs that keep the dominant culture reality-c

Oops I meant Jessie. I base it on a few things. 1. She didn't see this coming. Apparently she has no instinct for due diligence. 2. The way she handled one of her best customers, Lucinda. This woman does not seem to understand the most basi

That's a fine point. Personally I favour the GPL and am not really sure what to think about this Diaspora license scheme. My post was really targeted at BSD style licenses and how they are awful. The entire principle of pro bono work is as

Based on all the published words of Lucinda it seems clear to me that she is essentially incompetent. Groupon is just one type of rope that she used to hang herself. But not the only rope by any means. Having said that, of course it is in G

BSD license is such a failure from the perspective of the copyright holder. It's a bunch of OSS guys working for free to enrich parasites who don't give back to the original developers. Society benefits, sure. Those who use the code benefit

The acquirer is quite stupid if he doesn't consider the opinions of his future customers. Checking for stuff like this is mergers & acquisitions 101. I would be very surprised if these megacorps aren't thinking about this stuff when the

From my years of top-level competitive FPS gaming I eventually determined the same thing. A high level of play is greatly facilitated by a high heart rate and an adrenaline rush. The best gamers, by far, are the ones who combine years of pr

This is why you can't tell an interviewee what you want in an employee. You need to hold your cards close to your chest and get THEM to tell you what they deliver. If it doesn't fit then you need to consider finding someone else. The worst

I often wonder why this hasn't already happened on a massive scale. I figure a bunch of Russian and Chinese hackers are skimming off cents at a time or something because they don't want to kill their golden goose by being too overt.
