I actually really like "while you were away," but from the blog post, I can't tell if/how this new feature is different.

Why would they want to do that?

I noticed the same. It could easily be fixed by specifying "...revenue from selling a combined total of..."

No Milpool! :( More seriously: 1) Awesome!!! 2) It would be great if the search results page listed the quotes in addition to showing the images.

What kind of work do you do, and what kind of companies are letting you do this setup?

Last time I was looking into it, Glassdoor didn't seem to do a good job of covering bonuses and stock grants, which are very important factors.

Same here. I would gladly trade some of my income for more free time, but I was immediately shut down when I tried to discuss it with my employer. It would be great if companies started opening up to this idea.

The article always qualifies it as Firefox OS for smartphones . Is there a non-smartphone version that they're keeping?

Not clear from the description: is there any ability to execute code directly from the notebook?

It's also not clear what the end condition is. I edited the source so that it always picks my numbers, and it just keeps going. So far I've spent $2,734 and won over a trillion.

It looks like that map just hasn't been updated since the press release. The press release says it's available in 190 countries.

Are these instructions thorough enough for somebody with no hardware experience? How long might this project take for such a person?

If you keep reading, you'll see: > You’ll win a six-week paid internship if you’re in your first, second or penultimate year of study. I don't know much about UK culture, but it's possible that this is quite valuable.
