   Verisign isn't hitching the proverbial chain across the river, because they are a necessary part of the domain registration of domain names. They are providing a necessary service and raising the barrier to entry with their patents. If

   I wouldn't consider p2p lending comparable to CD's. Their risk profile is completely different. I would think of them more like penny stocks.

   The reason why savings accounts and CDs have such a low interest rate is because they are far less risky than other financial instruments. If you compare them to other assets with a similar risk profile and payment structure, such as short

   I think at this stage in the game you owe it to Company A and yourself to pick option C. It's not worth burning bridges, especially in technology, where you never know who you are going to work with next. You made the commitment now st

   I don't think its so strange at all. Money eliminates the double necessity of wants bartering requires. For example, in a barter economy, a cobbler could only get milk as often as a dairy farmer needs shoes. The fact that we trade mone

    I think the reason for this is to prevent cross browser bug you seemed to be experiencing in the parent comment.

    This feedback is a little harsh. OP's grammar is perfectly valid, it just isn't consistent with writing style we are used to seeing in a Resume. OP -- I think this link will help you rework your resume so its more consistent with

    I think you are making a great point considering the risk of investing in a company that is also paying your salary. To take it a step further you can consider this salary to be an annuity and find the present value. If you look at your po

    Diversification is the only free lunch in investing.[1] You can keep your level of risk the same while reducing your exposure to other risks. [1] http://www.quanthome.com/index.php?option=com_content&view=a...

    I'm curious, have you been burnt before by sales people with a side project? My intuition is that if the products aren't competing there wouldn't be a problem. Do you have anecdotal evidence to the contrary?

    Not sure why you got downvoted. This comment opened up my eyes to the reason why I am biased against traders. If I dislike people who are rewarded for the risks that they take I should also be sympathetic to those who took those risks and l

    It sounds like you are perfectly capable of learning technologies on your own, and that your primary concern is having a degree as opposed to an education. Have you considered going for a bachelors in a non-technical field like economics, o

    Are you genuinely interested in learning how to code and just don't think it would be as fulfilling as operating the business needs? If not, that might be your issue with getting started with programming. Being an "ideas guy"

    According to other comments you have been employed for the past 5 years. You might want to leverage the contacts and relationships you have built first. These are the people who already know your work ethic and could provide a warm lead to

    It is possible that the outages weren't unrelated but also weren't malicious. For example, all three companies use the same vendor who's services failed. I do think it is still more likely that they were 3 unrelated problem&#
