I'd gain some free time and the reminder that nothing in my gmail or any social site really matters.

Good God, this is ridiculous - this should be a bigger news story, show how MPAA respects noone.

I can't speak for academia - it's an island I have no wish to ever visit again. Great companies or teams aren't happy accidents. They require leadership, vision, and execution. I wouldn't want to work with Jobs - but I admire what he's do

The ceo of a company is responsible for success and failure. When I was in the Army, the success or failure of my squad rested with me - I was ultimately responsible. So, yes, in this case, the guy who took apple from the dumps to one of th

Fair enough - I was going for an "unbiased" metric. Could have been market cap, stock price, etc. In a nutshell, my respect goes to the builders and hackers of the world, not the talkers.

Best part is Job's last comment: By the way, what have you done that’s so great? Do you create anything, or just criticize others work and belittle their motivations? Creating something of value is hard. It takes dedication, iteration, con

My God, you're so right! I was there as well, same thing - the dot.com boom made ad agencies tons of money.

I'm the lucky "business" guy who works with this team. All of us have built real companies in the Valley. You don't have to have their level of experience, as long as you're sharp and motivated. Couple things about us: - Our investors ar

Probably flat-fee. A talented editor can make your manuscript better, but that doesn't guarantee sales.

Um, no. They were harsh rulers. No one likes to be oppressed by a foreign power. How would you feel if the Chinese came in, killed off Democrats and Republicans, and the rest of us were relegated to serving them afternoon tea and being t

After taxes, that's about $32K. If hacker lives in California, that's $15.2K. Makes you wonder why more hackers don't run bot farms.

High-fructose corn syrup is poison, period. Weight gain is minor, bring on the diabeties, heart disease, inflammatory issues. The list goes on and on. Simple solution is to let market prices dictate cost of sugar, rather than corn subsidi

Sorry to be harsh about this - but this is borne out of the reality of having worked with MBAs at startups and huge corporations: If you want innovation, first step - fire the MBAs.

PR agencies are what corporate managers hire to justify their marketing budgets. You're a startup. Be scrappy. Be creative. Think outside the box. You'll come up with ideas and ways to market far far more effective for your market than

In a nutshell, nope. If your startup takes off, part of your traffic (the type-in kind) will go to the .com, where it'll be a parked page full of Google or Yahoo ads, and will make the domain owner money. Move on and find something else.
