What's the big deal. The producers of the drugs are in South America, the consumers of the drugs are in Europe, and the transporters of the drugs are rarely from Guinea. In west africa, people hardly consume any drugs at all, even the most

That would mean that anyone who was out of a job in the city would either need to leave the city or prey on the people within the city who still have money. Your proposal would lead to a huge de-population of the cities. It would also mean

The main advantage of the app store is a quick and painless payment method for the end users. Your web app does not offer that.

Perhaps it makes sense. Artists will soon make their money via concerts. Prince has a series of concerts coming up. He has a huge old-school fan base, so does not need to get his songs out there (people already know him). His new songs then

It appears that the way this is working is that iTunes acccounts are being sold in vietnam or china, these devs are purchasing these accounts and buying a bunch of their apps. So the devs don't seem to be the hackers.

The big mistake they made was that pre-order. It was a great marketing move in the start, but when things went wrong, it became their biggest enemy. Moral of the story: Don't collect any money at all from people till you can immediately sen

Never mock anything technological and new. People will laugh at you for years if you get it wrong. Ask CmdrTaco. The other way is not true, ask all the people who praised the Segway. Nobody cares that they thought it would be so cool.

I think I've heard of this trick. What the developers do is that they make the app expensive ($500), then they purchase it with promo-codes, leading to it going into the top-grossing list. Then they switch it to 99cents, but since it takes

Apple is on the case, if you read the follow-up. Also, the last time something like this happened, Apple was very pro-active, fixed the issue really quickly. I think the problem was really just that Apple didn't know about it.

To calculate the daily income of this guy: $5 per app and he has 50 apps in the top 100. Daily sales are about 30 for each app, so total of 1500 sales per day. At $5, he's making $7500 a day. In the 3 weeks he has exploited this hack: $157

I'd hire people who studied Computer Engineering. Ask the average programmer how data moved around on the motherboard, or what exactly a processor does and he has next to no idea. Computer engineers learn the fundamentals, while computer sc

The Gates Foundation seems to have a lot of high-profile donators sticking a lot of tax-free money in there. Not to be cynical or anything - but there is as much malaria in the 3rd world as there was before this foundation started.

Let me put it this way: You're a talented singer, songwriter, guitarist, and producer. The company needs a person who plays bass. They could hire you as a bassist, but that's not where you belong. You're a rockstar. You belong in the front.
