   Would you elaborate? What is a serious contributor in your opinion?

   Well, if the device is tablet-like it probably will be near the camera / screen.

   Actually making no profit, but at the same time not losing money is "good enough" for a company like Google. The massive amount of users allows for analyzing behavior patterns and increasing the profile information that later on i

   I think the problem with Berlin is that salaries are low, while prices are growing pretty quickly. From my experience, this is what makes Berlin less attractive than people think (at the financial level): - low engineer / developer sal

   Same here, move from Berlin to Zürich. From time to time I miss some things, but now I can fly there and spend a weekend more intensely than while living there ;) BTW, I think I saw that appartment in Adliswil. Switzerland is so small ;)

   What are the typical working conditions in the US tech sector? I mean vacation days, hours / week, flexible working hours, other perks and benefits? What would be the most typical conditions? What are the conditions an American softwar

   Does it look strange to you? Have seen this a lot these days, at least in the EU.

    I must honestly say, I don't get why you'd be pissed off about something like this, nor why would the community lynch you for creating an account. Seems a bit like sect behavior to me (arbitrary rules and punishments).

    I'm sorry my post isn't to your satisfaction. I tried to avoid doing an extensive rant by something a bit more creative. Now I see, that HN can be a tough place to express one's ideas.

    You got your chance, Mongo, and you screwed it up. I tried getting the most out of you. I treated you like a princess, I indulged you, your wishes became my wishes and your thoughts were my thoughts. I stopped listening to all that criticis

    Looks like you can create a chatroulette clone with just a few lines of JS, not bad as a demo of what you can do with it.

    I just don't get it. What is so difficult about providing a one-time authentication through the user's phone? Just open Whatsapp on the smartphone, get a token, put your phone number and token and voilà! I mean, there have been we

    I actually worked with a guy like this. He was a very intelligent, almost brilliant programmer at a very young age. But as brilliant as he was, he also was pretty socially awkward. It took me a lot of time and patience getting used to his w

    Is "Dark Mail" going to be the official name? I am no marketing expert, but I am pretty sure it's not a good name. People associate darkness with negative feelings, thus a lot of people might start thinking that encryption is

    Well, I would blink. I use Spotify only for discovering music. Once I like an album, I get it physically or on iTunes. I think they could tie it to hours / month. A cheap, limited account for people like me, and an unlimited one for ha

    And why isn't your friend finding a job with such a huge experience? I don't want to offend you, just plain curiosity.

    I'm obviously not a doctor. I can only say that in my experience, eating a teaspoon of coffee works for me and relatives of mine who have tried it. And it works amazingly fast and well. Of course, I also know what kind of food or drink

    I suffer acid reflux a lot of times. One trick I read some years ago proved to be magical: eat a teaspoon of dry, milled coffee. It works instantly and lasts for at least 2-3 hours. It can be tough to swallow the coffee at the beginning, bu

    I have worked for a company that did / does a lot of money by providing a closed-source CMS for mainly Rails apps to its clients. I must say that getting paying customers for any CMS is a lot of work. If you are going for larger compan

    As far as I know, there is only 1 person in the Ruby world who is succeeding with this model, and this is Mike Perham. While I admire his work and find his business model amazing, I think his advice is actually very, very shallow and is bas

    I'm a huge fan of Go, but moving from Ruby to Go can't be a decision based on performance gains only. There are a lot of advantages the Ruby language and ecosystem provide. What about programmer happiness and productivity? What ab

    In terms of what do you want the recommendation? Pricing? Performance? Scalability? Availability? Tech support? I would go with Heroku or AWS RDS. Both truly deliver and make devs / devops sleep better.

    So boostraped startups, like mine, that would need /profit from it the most, are explicitly excluded. Well, Google, we didn't need your money anyway.
