My thought is Apple can offer opt-in for artists who wish to get unpaid during the trial period. Some artists would want to get some exposures instead of cash. For those who want to get paid from the start, their work will only be available

Unfortunately being hireable and getting hired are two separate things. Yes, we can do things better and more thorough, however the sad thing is, most employers (at least in Singapore where I am) don't care. They care about salary and

All these articles only mentioned the possibility of liability. [1] most probably translated from German, and I cannot really understand what the translated text means, so I have no comment. [2]: It doesn't say for sure one will be lia

The first line on ML: "Magic Lantern is a free firmware addon for Canon EOS DSLR cameras that adds a host of features to assist photographers and videographers." Read it again: it is free. If you really need QoS, pay someone to de

Do you do job-based consultation? Say one has a project/website, and that person has some marketing goals in mind, can you quote a price instead? Also, any guarantee on effectiveness?

I doubt Metro can keep the money. There is an escheatment law whereby unclaimed money will need to be turned over to the state. It is a big hassle to them IMHO.

The real question is why someone would change something most people already getting used to. I don't see any compelling reason to change the link in this way, do you?

Agree with some of the earlier comments: the diamond-shaped thingies inserted are really a nuisance and breaks the reading flow.

This reminds of the polymorphic viruses in MS-DOS/Windows era (very likely they still exist, but I didn't look for long time) where they would dynamically generate the decryption/encryption routines and changed their code app

Square is a payment processor, and does not wear the merchant hat. Even if it sells the data, the merchants acquiring the data still needs to pay, bumping up the cost of business. On the other hand, Amazon is _both_ payment processor and me

Also, I guess most of the merchants who sign up will be first-timers who accept cash before. Information from these people are what Amazon needs. Let's say in certain region there has been high sales of tea cups, I won't be surpri

I would suspect one or combination of the following issues: 1) The OS doesn't give the pen interrupt high enough priority 2) The bandwidth between the CPU and touch screen digitizer is too small 3) Too many background processes that ca

Totally agree. I left the company after one year and joined an MNC. Although the BigCo has its own issues, but the upside (stable income, more resources, clearer roles and responsibility, etc.) keeps me until now.

Not true at all. You can always look for projects that interest you and start to contribute: browse github and knock yourself out. For entry level jobs, as long as you can show adequate knowledge in a certain technology, I don't think

Even within a company, this is largely a function of what your project is, and how your boss treats you. If the project is challenging, new (no historical shit to clean up) and your boss takes good care of you, yes, great fun it is
