* Whatever is slightly uninteresting is terribly difficult for him to focus on but if there's something interesting, he can maintain perfect focus for hours. Aren't we all like that?

If you do implement this, you can also avoid validating every submission server-side. It should be enough to check a random sample. If you suspect someone, you can start checking them more aggressively. If you want to get serious, there&#x2

Cool, I think this is a great idea.. Some thoughts: - Currate the results on the frontpage a little? It's filled with test posts - Group & filter (e.g. on language) - IMHO this is extra valuable in smallish groups. So some function

I feel the same way, and I think it's quite normal. It might not be the stated reason for not evaluating an idea, but I think it's often the real reason. I mean, it's seems so obvious, right? Don't spend lots of time

How much did you spend each place / day?

by gizzlon 13y ago
Yeah, I'm thinking the same thing.. I'm sure there's places that are quite empty and let you stay for a while during the day. But with the prices here it's cheaper to rent a co-working space than buy 3 cups of coffee eac

Is there a service that tests the scale of web apps? I'm not thinking of software, rather a service that web developers could use to test their app with simulated "real" traffic..

This is great for hipsters who want to start listening to a band before they're popular :) Since the chances are kind of slim, you'd have to listen to a lot..

There are several use-cases for docker, and they could use different docker images and containers. Right now there's no easy way to distinguish all-in-one image from one-process images. Seems like the "docker way" is the one-

You'll probably find 'No more Mr. Nice Guy' interesting if you haven't checked it out yet.. It does not advocating being an asshole, but discusses the "too nice" attitude (which, it turns out, is not nice at al

Suddenly it is easier to understand the person's behavior (but not justify it) It kind-of sounds like the reverse to me. You're justifying the behaviour by imagining a situation where you would react the same way, thereby saying

AFAIK, most private schools also receive some funding by the government (if they want). You seem to believe that private schools are always better, but at least in my field, the top public universities are regarded as better than any privat

20% seems too high, but the difference is mostly due to people that unable or "unable" to work. They are not unemployed in the sense used here.

by gizzlon 13y ago
Guess it can be a good idea.. The unemployment rate is low, but there are far less jobs for people who don's speak Norwegian. Wages for programmers is lower than the U.S I believe, and it's an expensive country. In exchange for a
