True. Recently one of the sales directors at my company threatens the CEO to make him a "co-founder" (which basically means granting him a lot of option), or he will quit. He is responsible for half of our revenue, and he has been

Being fit helps project a certain image. And that is one reason I do it.

I exercise a lot. But I do it mostly for the intrinsic fun part. I doubt it has a big impact on our health and longevity. Once a research says regular medium intensity exercise could potentially prolong our lives by 3 to 5 years. But that i

I fully understand your hatred towards the Chinese government. I want to point out what I believe is the root cause. It has nothing to do with communism. Chinese has a deep rooted culture of long range thinking (think "Sun Tzu").

The reality is that mainlanders want prosperity and stability over democracy. Unless protesters could prove there is a better way to bring prosperity, the propaganda efforts would be futile. It is not 1980s any more. VPN would not help. I l

Chinese companies have been relying on instant messenger as the primary communication channel for a long time. So definitely it works.

I’m not sure why we need to be sarcastic about a future in which “we upgrade ourselves into transhuman”. There is nothing special about “humanity”. Emotions are likely result of chemicals. We will transform ourselves and what those beings f

I too find that after a 10-hour day, I can not do anything productive. My best time is morning till early afternoon. I think ego depletion definitely has some anecdotal evidence. Most of us can only do quality focused work when our mind is

Great pos! The more I learn about bitcoin, the more I feel like it still has a long way to go. There are a few hurdles that can not be easily solved now: 10min transaction time; deflationary (this pretty much means it would have a hard time

Thanks too! I felt I spent too much time reading junk before and now I am really careful in selecting what to read. I have looked at your list briefly and it is great that someone has taken the efforts to pick the gold from huge pile of rub

I am a fan of Scott, but the last paragraph on Sinofsky is laughable. Online business and software are different beasts. With all his advocation of the dogmatic triad model, Sinofsky would for sure slow down online service division and sink

I remember I see people using some sort of old fashioned Basic like IDE with blue screen and yellow fonts to work on it. Do not know if it has improved.

This is very similar to the big company that I work for - we use "visibility" instead of "high profile" though. :) So I suppose when company grows larger, it is inevitable. You just need to adapt to that or leave if you can not stand it. Al

Most web developers can adapt to "HTML5" rather quickly. It looks more like .NET3.0 VS .NET2.0. Recruiters may not be able to fully understand the difference and would think that "HTML5" represents something completely new.

I do not find anything new in this article. A very hideous way of saying entrepreneurs need to chanllege the status quo.
