But it makes sense from money standpoint :) A lot of companies like Yahoo need cash cows to support various initiatives that do not have a return for quite some time.

You've got a lot of reasonable responses above.

It's not. It's quite larger than the one in the video.

I guess the other color image fills are just variation of the original blue image.

Can't be just a placeholder. If it was, it would be a single color for a better compression. Hence the whitenoise - it helps to maintain compression ratio low.

Well beyond awesome. Thanks for sharing!

It's one thing to say how much you will pay, and different to pull out your wallet and actually pay.

That's is all well put together, and illustrates my idea in the other comments, why validation is not the silver bullet. Thank you for sharing your experience!

It's funny that I mentioned randomness in my second comment as well :) I tend to agree with you to some extent, even about the quote for the comment. But, startups as an example fails to me, because as we all know, most of the startups

Yes, when you've built several products, you definitely start to see things that work and things that do not work and you gain experience. Again, I am not against validation, it just should be used moderately and not exclusively as a k

While I do see the value of validation, this is not a silver bullet. People try to simplify things, find patterns, but this cannot always work. There are so many reasons why I would not want to validate things: - Sometimes, people will n

Sygic drive's HUD option has exactly this. Works like a charm during the night.

I tend to disagree. People jumping too much here and there are not "fighters", and I certainly do not want them in my team. I might prefer "average" but ones that I can trust rather than top performer who can leave anyt

It's more of an idea, that if you are not good, people will eventually find better service. Right now, they really can go elsewhere (if you not count bashing on twitter :)), but imagine that facebook downtimes become a norm - eventuall

People are excited, since this is one of the core missions and thinking in facebook - never be down, or people will go elsewhere. That's why it's a big deal, not everyday something goes that wrong, especially in something you put

I took off my wlan cable on and off. It didn't help. Then I stopped the electricity for a moment - I believe in complete cold restarts. Still nothing :)

Correct.

The last I saw a similar post, couple of months ago, the map was not ready in my home area. Now tough, it's pretty advanced. Awesome progress!

Absolutely. They start to look like a mass-media, trying to generate hypes and sensations, which pretty often are done in a very cheap way. And once you start and point out this in the comments below the article, they say "you don&#x27

This happens all the time, get used to it. Especially when your company/product starts to mean something. Take it from the bright side of life, and enjoy! They can copy the features of your side, but they can't copy the value and

I'd be much more interested in a solution that effectively minimizes the text or uses another technique about speed reading (like diagonals, etc). The reason why I won't be using this service is simply because it makes the eye laz

There was speculation that the social networks will outplace the traditional media, but to some extent, this will not happen. Fake social accounts and handles are already everywhere nowadays, and they indeed cause good poisoning on search r

Can't really imagine how are the relatives of all these innocent people feeling. And also can't imagine that in 2014 we are not really sure where an airplane is..

There are so many little stuff left for ages due to technical limitations back them. It's fascinating.
