If you buy just about anything on the list, it immediately makes many of the rest of the things on the list "Nice to have". For example, if I buy an iPad 2, the Nook and the Macbook Air immediately become a little less desirable or unnecess

Why can't you do both? The people who are finding your sell pressed CDs would probably buy it whether it was on Spotify or not. If those initial buyers then wanted to share the music with somebody else, I would think Spotify would be a MUCH

Ridiculously short sighted analysis. So you sell 143 CDs and make your thousand bucks. Good for you. End of the road. Then you sell another 155 CDs on CD Baby. Make another thousand bucks. Yep. End of the road. In the time that it's taken t

I'd be more surprised if she was using MySpace or Friendster.

This is getting ridiculous. The idea of bonuses, rewards for completing tasks, the earning of newer impressive titles, gifts for accomplishing things coworkers couldn't. It's not the gamefication of work. It's just work.

The Omniture pricing is where you start. Then they charge additional to raise your server call limit, additional for data correlation, additional for data warehousing. Omniture has a great product, but to think that an enterprise gets away

Oh I'm sure I could rattle off at least a hundred or so names of products and services that have no relationship to their relative products, are challenging to spell (assuming you hadn't heard of them before) and sound somewhat similar to o

The whole point of the original email was to recognize that their pricing changes made them seem out of touch. What's so bad about a CEO apologizing to his customer base? Also, I'll always take product name critiques with a grain of salt. I

It's not "giving tools that people are willing to buy", it's "selling tools that are profitable". iPhone or not, if there wasn't a business reason to support HTML5, I'm positive Adobe would've been perfectly content being the proprietary st

The truth is that people who use Groupon-type deals are the last kind of customer your business wants. I'd really like to see a study that proves this, because unless this is true then the entire article is bunk. Almost every form of adve

Then I'm not understanding the definition of "polarizing". By my thinking, a polarizing movie would have distinctly good ratings to go alongside distinctly bad ratings, i.e. Twilight is not polarizing if everybody agrees it is bad.

Why would extremely polarizing movies be an indicator that movies are getting worse? If anything, more polarization would seem to mean that critics are finding movies more difficult to come to consensus on, which could mean that movies are

Well, back to the drawing board, cause the scenario I was hoping they'd fix is highway robbery.

Just reading what's been quoted in the blog post, this makes it so that an upsell purchase is a distinctly different transaction from a previously completed purchase. What was possible before: 1. Visitor enters billing information and makes

Sponsorship. Localized. You know the person's area code. Make the assumption that they live somewhere near there and sell local ads. I wouldn't put the advertising in the voice message itself. Most users are just as likely to ignore the cal

Video game systems have obviously worked within models like this (software specific to system) for decades to varying levels of success. Microsoft/Sony/Nintendo have also obviously worked in this exact model (download software for dedicated

Are people downvoting this because of the last sentence? I think it's a perfectly reasonable point. When your OS is only available on one product and one carrier, it's not an apples to apples comparison and analysts should try a little hard

This is funny and all, but any HR department worth its salt would know what it takes to get a job at its respective company. At the very very least, most HR departments these days will take a glance at Facebook.

If your site is being properly found by real people with Google, then does it matter if the search results page doesn't show the .com yet? My assumption is that anybody who wants to share your URL with somebody will do it after they've arri

I am very discouraged by how dismissive most of the comments are in regards to learning another language regardless of what it is. I thought this was a group of HACKERS. Understanding another language, especially one as challenging as Manda

This is great and all, but I'm not sure how they managed to get a cell phone with GPS, a digital camera and an iPad all for under $200.

Sure. Why not? The morale of the company was supposedly "killed" after that email and the evidence used was a drop in stock price, but a little investigation shows that the stock price is actually fine. Therefore, any accusation that the CE

Is there a summary of the interesting bits anywhere? Scribd is a little wonky for me and the scan is very difficult to read.

The same sort of thing happens regularly in any sport where any sort of external outcome is dependent on individual games. The best example is any league that relies on final standings to determine the next season's draft order. When the te

This league would be better off modifying the rules so that every team finishes undefeated by default.

by foulmouthboy 16y ago
That's assuming it's sudden death. It sounds like the rule goes into effect at the end of regulation. That would make it so that the team that goes up by six would be encouraged to then take the ball back and score on themselves to make the

Are you saying that the perks that come with love aren't real? My heart of hearts would beg to differ.
