Even if it is true that we are in a bull market half the time and in a bear one half the time, this can still be viewed as encouraging statistic because it means that companies that start in a bear market do not suffer any excessive weeding

I would not trust the "word on the street" about auto-focus. And by "word on the street" you probably mean "word on the internet". There is a lot of misinformation out there, because most enthusiasts have significant investments in other in

Yeah, that happens. That's what patents are for. Or NDA agreements. I know hackers do not like dealing with legal stuff but it is necessary and helpful sometimes. It is much better to set up legal rights through a patent or an agreement tha

I agree. It seems far more straightforward to talk to those guys than to do a bunch of guessing as to what they want and write a post on joelonsoftware asking for advice. If you are sane normal adult you should be able to talk to someone wi

I don't see the big deal. First of all, the fee has been reduced to about $35 for online registration. So if copyright infringement is that important to you, then just register your blog posts. The registration requirement is not there to h

Yeah, I hear you. It is rather scary because people that have bought into a particular diet theory are very adamant in supporting it. You would not want to admit that years of suffering to get onto some type of diet were in vain. My persona

" That's the analogy that you seem to have completely missed - the government should act like Costco, making their data available in bulk, but instead, they act like bodegas, giving little snippets." Is that really the problem? If that is t

Where did you get that? Multiple hedge funds collapsed. Their collapses weren't as public because hedgefunds tend to be very secretive but many, actually most of them closed their doors. Also, hedgefunds like banks were the main cause of th
