Wasn't loading for me either. Went to the homepage of that domain and scrolled down til I found it. Article is 8 months old.

Very polite of you to point out, but it's clear why.

Does anyone care to keep their movie preferences private? (Let alone the fact that this groups people broadly into demographic clusters and "preferences" are defined vaguely as a rating between 1 and 5.)

haha, just the image of telling someone that "i had no idea it was a program" makes me laugh.

Maybe 5 years ago there was a billboard on the corner of Vassar and Mass Ave that was "[the first 10-digit prime in consecutive digits of pi].com" Obviously that piqued my interest. Once solved and visited, it was simply an upload link fo

Is color somehow representative of depth?

Interesting thoughts. Unfortunately that link to the funny t-shirts stole like 10 minutes from me because I had to read every single one.

I like this thoughtful example. Problem is, like what you've outlined, 90% of this conversation happens in the entrepreneur's head which is precisely the complaint!

This article refers to the judges' opinions. Your rebuttal is ad hominem (DH1: http://www.paulgraham.com/disagree.html ).

The article references the judges' comments. The credibility you measure should be that of the judges.

his harmless survey is more akin to another psychology test than wrongfully accusing someone you know to be innocent...no idea why you even threw that reply in there.

I'm sure he'll have plenty of data without you... If you take an inkblot test, do you say: "a blob of ink, a dab of ink, a splash of ink..."?

Can they show that it was because of the "exercise" and not the adrenaline rush of being forced to move your body torturously and indefinitely by a power much greater than you? among other possibilities...

"I think a spider should be employed that searches the web for events and adds them into the database." Everything but this has been done "well". If you can do this you can make money, but I don't think it's so trivial...

"Effectively, there is no marketing." Just because these engineers don't know what other responsibilities were being handled does not mean there were none.

I think this logic is fundamentally flawed. If you don't present your ideas well, they will be missed. If your content is wrapped up in junk, your audience will move to another content provider. This is the law of the land. Any tiptoeing

Let's just clarify... So your argument is: "Apple did all the research and has been successful in design before, so you must be wrong if you dislike it." And your suggestions are: 1. people should just live without the 88MB

I will try to tackle this one. Imagine you finished college and 4 years of working at hypermegacorp as a sr. software developer or a product marketing manager. Now around you, you see some of your superiors have MBA's (certainly not all), y

While I think your comment is a bit in jest, I'll just point out how dangerous your line of thinking is. The Germans don't get "free" health spas, each person pays more money to the government and the government in turn allocates more funds

Sorry to back and forth, but you are clearly misunderstanding if you are terrified. If someone wants to build a musical instrument: by all means, that's terrific. As a music lover and instrumentalist, I will buy it and play with it...w/e.
