I don't think I'm ready to touch social gaming stock with a 10 foot pole. It'll probably have a nice bump right after the stock goes public, but I sense a large crash in its future. The social gaming market is just so fickle.

Hmm, this is fine when you really need a deeper understanding of something, but sometimes you just need to get some code out to fix a bug, hit a deadline, etc.

Yep, we got hit by this as well. I still have hope that one day Comcast will start to realize what the customer wants. Of course, it's not really necessary for a monopoly to fulfill their customers wishes, so fat chance that will ever

And I sure as heck don't justify stealing just because you don't like the price.

Because being poor doesn't give you the right to take from others to satisfy your own entertainment desires. I think Jean Valjean wouldn't have been quite the sympathetic character if he stole a lute instead of a loaf of bread ;)

Huh? I'm not quibbling about anything. You brought it up, not me. I'm perfectly happy where pricing is at in my region. It's commiserate with the general economy. Nothing is disproportionately priced here. Some areas seem to

I'm talking about lowering the cost in areas to match the economy. I too think the cost of software in Australia is crazy.

Have you even read the Universal Declaration of Human Rights? Articles 23 and 25 are not supplanted by Article 27. In fact, Article 30 specifically states that you cannot interpret the UDHR in any way that would allow you to remove rights s

I will agree with you that it's definitely important for products to be priced appropriately for the region they are sold in. And, I understand that access to information can be a huge roadblock, which is why it's important for pe

Exactly. The "just trust us" approach is bogus, antithetical to the open web, and cripples the overall progress in this discussion.

You are NEVER forced to steal things that aren't essential to survival. Starving on the street and steal a loaf a bread, that's one thing. Don't want to participate in many varied ways of listen to music for free legally and

Never hide anything from your spouse. Ever. Especially not financial troubles. Some openness and trust could have gone a long way here. Perhaps his wife could have helped him figure out their financial problems, maybe she would have even di

The expectation of spotify, mobile or desktop, is that I can select the songs I want to listen to. This feels like an unexpected behavior to me. That said, I'm sure they have tested the crap out of this to make sure they aren't go

I'm actually a little confused by go's global approach, which ultimately gives rise to the myriad of solutions listed in the comments here. Am I missing some go-centric way of thinking?

Hmm, I looked through the site and I still don't know what this is. I'm guessing it's a lightweight alternative to intercom.io. Try adding a live demo or video for viewers to understand your product better. Also, the sign up
