How would you even define such a rule ? - I doubt you could get a common consensus on where the ethical line is.

That model doesn't really work for apps which are dependent on external servers for multiplayer, etc. as the vendor has on-going costs. Hence revenue needs to be recurring as well. In practice that means ads, subscriptions or IAP.

If you look at the rankings for free (non-iap) apps, those charts are also dominated by games as well. Fundamentally people like playing games more than using "tech demo" apps.

Sounds like what Pogoseat are doing. Yield management of sports tickets is a fairly big thing and there's quite a few startups in the pre-game space for it.

People surprised by the 100 days requirement have presumably never seen the type of infrastructure required by a top-100 website or had to deal with user-time issues. Having an independent clock means turning off caching, which is a big dea

If you're relying on an external party for anything that falls in your critical path you should schedule it for well before your deadline. There's no reason that getting a cert needs to be left until the last minute.

Surely conversions are more important than impressions ? Especially for companies which are recruiting every month, there's much more value in getting to a wider audience than getting repeated exposure to the same audience.

I disagree for three reasons. Firstly different people read HN on different schedules, the weekend audience is different from the monday morning audience, it makes sense for it to rotate to maximize the different number of people aware of i

It depends what roles you're applying for, at early stage startups they're going to want candidates who've direct experience with the tech stack they're using. More established startups are more likely to take fresh grads. Feel free to ping

It depends what aspect of HFT you want to get into, but experience can generally trump accreditation. That is you won't get hired out of uni, but you can get hired somewhere working on similar tech where you get to prove your worth before t

You could say that about all incentivized pay, i.e. salespeople, developers rewarded for hitting milestones, etc.

If you're a long term investor like a government who invested in an index tracker, HFT and the like have a relatively small impact on prices compared to trades by other large institutional investors.

It's not clear why you think your startup is illegal ? - encryption broadly speaking isn't legally restricted in most western countries. If what you're doing is illegal in the country that you're in then why not move to a country in which i
