am I the only one who is confused by the way ownership works here? The article itself is more of a dreamy PR piece. However, looking at the website and the FAQ itself - I cannot really figure out how "app coins" work. Who creates

look on monster.de for english speaking jobs, or thelocal.de - there are also facebook groups for startups in berlin who are looking to hire. Your best bet is to be here and look for something though - the odds of getting hired sitting in t

"Sure but the money you save by reselling a book is probably less than what you save by buying the ebook" This is what I had hoped for when Kindle came around and Amazon started pushing Ebooks - but unfortunately it just isnt true

A kindle costs <50$ - load it up with free PDFs downloaded via Torrents or other means and the notion : "book readers owning an e-reader is probably older and more wealthy than the average movie pirate" falls flat. I dont have

Yes - but a person looking to buy the Malcolm Gladwell book - willing to buy it at 10$ - but who can only buy it at 15$ or more - will probably end up then either borrowing it from a friend or in the worst case downloading it as a PDF illeg

is this journalism? the first paragraph is about how he isn't believable because he has a russian accent yet works in the valley. seriously? Isn't the valley largely made up of foreigners pursuing crazy ideas? This is subjective

this is probably the best thing that facebook has done with its news feed algorithm. I've also started seeing a lot less of posts from friends who tended to overpost.. Looks like they're getting things right with that. On the othe

yes thats how businesses work - things are meant to be done in a company's best interests - that is also why companies have a board of directors. Furthermore - I cant see how this was in some particular individuals interest. Nor has an

usually CXO level people ARE chosen because they have displayed a modicum of brilliance at something... It isn't exactly a lottery system. Plus - you can already look at what he's done with the Azure platform.

I'm highly skeptical about how much of this will be relevant for us (20 somethings) - when we retire. So much has changed significantly since this guy was 35. Most public pension systems such as the ones here in Europe likely wont eve

no one is saying that there are no other issues in India. However - none of what you're bringing up has to do with increased life expectancy. I'd accept this argument if it was 70 year olds going out and raping. That said - I do w

Actually - he posted something snarky about how this is no big deal considering the poverty, rape, sanitation etc issues that India has - and got majorly downvoted for that - and then seems to have edited it to something else.. While a mess

I've never understood the point of such services (i know there is somehing similar for raspi as well) - why is this better than using any Iaas / Paas provider ?

why are you so stunned that people can be inhumane? Have you looked into how all those clothes you rushed so madly to buy on black friday are so dirt cheap? Or that iphone? There are people in the west who are equally or even more inhumane

wow yet another westerner sitting on their high horse of "we know what's right for you" - the caste system has little or nothing to do with this. And these steps are far from as trivial as you make them sound. If the biggest

well - if you understand society in India - depending on where you live - it can very much be a neccessity as well. It may be a clear luxury for someone living in the west. But there cant be 2 more different places than a developed country
