It does to me. It shows that someone at least took the time to work through a course. It also shows they are cool enough to know what coursera is and open minded enough to use it.

The certificates will have value as long as they remain evidence of honest completion of the course. To say they are worthless is kind of short-sighted. Considering the number of tech resumes in the typical hiring manager's inbox that conta

Judging by OP's blog, I'd say he's passionate. Look at his other articles. He says he's "in it for the money" because he's honest. No one working to earn a living is not in it for the money, and if they tell you otherwise they're delusio

If it is genuine, I don't know why they think they'll get away with it. Also $1M is way too low of an amount to blackmail Romney for. Talk about selling yourself short.

That's where the confusion comes in. You think you could have done more. The reality is, you couldn't have. The neurons in your brain would have fired the same way no matter what. Each of them took a predictable path based on prior causes

The reason I write software, is that I had access to a computer and I was able to try it myself, and have a seemingly infinite amount of time (my teen years) to learn and experiment. Computers, are relatively safe, so no one has cracked dow

"Potential" is a myth. Our "potential" is determined by our genetics and environment. I believe each human does his "best" and by that I mean, does what he thinks he needs to do to get the things he wants, based on his own priorities. For s

I wonder what would happen if someone did the same in the US. We do have the first amendment and all, but an airport? It seems that the constitution is null and void in all situations relevant to airports now.

Sorry OP, but your defense of ghettos as voluntary enclaves is not accurate. Please check: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ghettos_in_Nazi-occupied_Europe They were also not even a tiny bit prosperous.

I think OP has a point but his theory neglects that dead people are still in our 5 through their works that live longer than they do. It's possible to be a complete loner and still have a "5". Also count people you don't personally know who

I think the important thing to realize here is that it's just someone's opinion. It's not a scientific fact that you are the average of the 5 people you spend the most time with. The theory breaks down when you don't spend time with anyone,

I agree. These tools will only work for someone who would have been able to do it anyway. You might find something like this helps you, but you're not going to find that if you can't do it that this will change that.

I disagree that there is a problem. The problem is that you are choosing to apply at places that employ hiring mechanisms that you personally object to. So I think that you're the problem. Some people appreciate the rigorous screening

Reddit is minimalist because it doesn't have a feature that resizes the link to a suitable size for your screen. That's the essence of minimalism, technologically. Perhaps you could argue it doesn't fit the "minimalist" design aesthetic. Wh

I am referring to extreme diets like atkins. My contention is that most "fad diets" aren't tailored to anyone's metabolism. What they're tailored to is profit. Each of us needs to figure out a healthy ratio of carb/protein/fat.
