I was going to ask how you knew that since I couldn't get that from the FastCompany article. Good thing I checked your profile first. Loved seeing you at MicroConf and keep up the good work ;) I'm not surprised that performance r

Do you have any reason to believe this happens in an iterative model as well? In this model there's no reason to believe the worst candidate isn't passing his credit to employees just about to surpass you, which would defeat the p

Each employee receives a single unit of value. Let's call it a 'credit.' Each employee then has to distribute all of his 'credit' to other employees. Each employee then gives away any credit received according to th

I couldn't agree more. My favourite questions are along the lines of "What technology are you most experienced with? Can you explain it's architecture to me?" and "What is the most complex customization you did to a

What's considered a good resume in the US definitely isn't in the Netherlands. In the Netherlands two to three pages is the sweet spot and a one pager would be considered odd. If you're just out of University two pages should

I meant 'cool' more as in 'hack-value'. Our product (Interactly) is virtual video interactions, so our main value prop is being able to see real people respond. In that context we figured it would be interesting to see i

There's even this (awesome) guide on optimizing video to gif conversion with ffmpeg and ImageMagick: http://blog.room208.org/post/48793543478 The file size reduction was quite impressive for our use case (roughly

You might want to take a look at Javelin. It sounds like that's what you're looking for. The talk InfoQ talk about it is probably the best place to start.

I haven't made any headway as my main startup takes precedence right now. Feel free to take the idea and run with it ;)

An arm and a leg. I did it together with a daily (on workdays) personal training routine for €100 per day. It was amazingly effective and I'm glad I did it but, unsurprisingly, it was just too expensive to maintain in the long run.

I once had my personal trainer cook me the 6 properly balanced meals I needed a day. I got 6 tupperware boxes each day and it was heaven, apart from the price tag. I've been dreaming of starting a healthy micro-meal delivery service ev

To each their own; I liked hearing about PerfectAudience again. Perhaps it works better for repeat visitors ;) P.S. Can you also import a list of email addresses to retarget by now?

You seem to be forgetting the part where we've moved to a knowledge worker's society in which men's physiological differences no longer make him inherently more fit as a provider. That is what has lead to a massive shift in g

I realized that after I posted but given that trust is hardly a discrete variable I'd say 'equal' is somewhat unlikely in this case.

So you're saying German citizens should trust their own government less than the US government? ;)

You're partially right; except that in this race they would prefer to be the first as late as possible. For that you would optimize being the most ready to run, but trying to get the group not to run for as long as possible.

I'm still looking for a very simple system that would let me do a live redeploy with a blocking database schema migration in between. For that I (think I)'d need a system that will: * start off with X nodes live in the load balanc

The free version could also break at any time of course. What you'd be paying for the privilege of having a client that works again the day after tomorrow. Also, the ability to run chat bots on the Skype network is something that can b

A French company should now be able to offer a chat messenger which is interoperable with Skype for sale, potentially giving it to keep up with the cat and mouse game.

From what I've heard this is just a dog that got out of the water and made the wood wet. I've never actually checked up on it, but Occam's razor would agree.

A: and B: were more relevant when PCs didn't have hard drives. Back then usually the OS would be on A and your current game/app would be on B. I still remember the first game that was soooo big it required both A and B, meaning

I think I do understand your point, but I think that my statement has more emotional content for you than it does for me. I've spent significant amounts of time in a few different cultures and through that I have developed deep appreci

Experience will also make you much smarter in knowing what you should (not) spend energy on. Startups don't die from producing too little code; they die from not writing enough code that really matters to the end user.

What kind of dosage are we talking about though? Like 1 or max. 2mg once every few weeks to get you over the hump of sleeping or 5mg every few days and occasionally a double dose?

Very true; that's also why I made sure to explicitly mention what my judgement was based on.
