Thomas... don't you have a startup to be working on? :)

This is awesome, but luckily for the programmers and computer scientists here, one of the best parts of the creative aspect of the profession is the ease with which you can prototype your ideas -- no 5 ton statue required :)

Yeah, but only until the GooBooks realize that they are just paying a huge premium for acquiring talent (and a worthless product).

This is exactly why people consider the valley to be a huge bubble. This kind of "innovation" isn't sustainable at all.

This is amazing. I remember being horrified after seeing this on reddit a few days ago. Glad there's somethiing we can all do -- this campaign really shows internet support and kindness in a great light.

I think this is a cool calculation, and the numbers seem pretty reasonable. One benefit from tshirts that isn't taken into account here is simple exposure -- even if someone who sees the shirt doesn't follow up on the company themselves, le

I'd like a combination of 3 (mission statement) and 5 (TeamGantt) -- each time you are creating a concrete goal for your todo list, think about how exactly it will align with your mission statement and advance the company.

It seems he's been using it more and more with his house arrest, haha.

Sure, but if _none_ of these second tier accelerators are producing _any_ successes, let alone any A rounds, it makes sense to question whether there's really any reward in participating in one at all.

The company was started by billionaires in the first place -- kind of strange that they should be looking for some loose change (at best some $50k). More likely just a way to garner the interest and attention of the wider tech crowd.

As stated in the article, it wouldn't be Facbeook's obligation, but rather a tool for prosecutors of repeat offenders. In the case of sex offenders, we have already somewhat legislated their online identity by including them in registries -

If people are complaining about airport security being intrusive now, think about the complaints that would result if this were to come about. While it's a nifty idea, this "spying" would never bode well with passengers, even in comparison

I agree.. the problem is that "meaningful" technology often takes much longer to come up with, create, and is often harder to monetize even once created. Government (e.g. DARPA) is a big supporter of this kind of development, but there's ju

I think the author is placing too much emphasis on the moral/ethical interpretation of free speech, and not enough on the legal implications, which are the only ones that really matter here. That concluding statement, that we are elevating

On the other hand, it allows Thiel to stay involved in every stage of fundraising, coming in and leaving as early and as late as he wants. Really, sounds like a good way to hedge his bets, and open up a new arena for him.

A lot of these companies are extremely early stage and probably wouldn't have that much information online for you to find by researching, even if you did know the name. The best way for you to find out about them would be to contact them p

Just curious, how does she have 15gb of "legally downloaded" music that she didn't pay for?

The presenter handled it well, and considering this is a demo of an unreleased product, the audience must have expected that it's not going be perfect quite yet.

It might also have to do with the concern that on mobile, the like button could be somewhat disguised visually and might it might not be immediately obvious that liking on the app will mean liking on Facebook.

This would be a great tool to have. One thing to watch out for is version incompatibilities, which are a much bigger problem in Android than other frameworks.

"Copy" probably doesn't refer to an actual copy, outside of the one Vonnegut probably made for himself -- it refers to the one sent.
