Having grown up in Wyoming. While Wyoming is definitely not a tech hub, they do protect your right to use lethal force to protect your property. Plus if they steal your horse, you can hang them and shoot them. win/win

I agree there is a lack of qualified candidates for software development positions, but I think the biggest problem is the outdated methods used to search for candidates. So many of these companies funnel recruits into a system that filter

How do you know yet what your MVP needs to be? What makes your implementation unique? You still need to do customer development. If you simply jump in following the leader, you will always be playing catch-up. Having a close relationship

I respect what you are trying to do, but do you really think the ones who commit these types of crimes will be using your system? In all honestly, anyone who would voluntarily give up their firearm, probably aren't someone we need to wor

I am a gun-toting country boy, who has no use for any type of automatic weapon or handgun The article seems to point towards needing tighter gun control, but I would lean more towards a systemic failure. Why do many of our fellow America

I typically get between 5 and 6 hrs (with 2-3 times getting up for the kids). If I get more than 8, I feel slow and groggy all day. 6 uninterrupted hours seems to be my sweet spot.

Wouldn't believing nothing is out there, be believing in "something"? I for one don't believe that this creation came to be as a matter of random chance. I have friends who absolutely believe that and they seem to be just as happy and fulf

Doesn't surprise me. Yesterday I set off the alarm because my sock was bunched up, but it didn't pick up my belt-buckle (I forgot to take off my belt). Have also gone through them with a phone in my back pocket on accident, with no alarms.

Yep, the comments usually tell you whether the article is worth reading. 0 comments on something probably reduces my click-through rate by 75%.

Can't speak for the 13.3" retina, but I recently upgrade from a 2010 13.3" MBP to a 15" retina. The retina was a bonus from a client for finishing a big project ahead of schedule. The speed was the major selling point for me. In fact I a

I don't understand why people would keep working for 2 years without getting paid or even being paid sporadically.

I would definitely do that once a week, so long as there was enough participation to alternate between those with more experience and those with less experience.

I think it would very much depend on the project, the industry, and contribution breakdown. There are too many variables to give a blanket answer.

The fact that having a high IQ is not an accurate measurement of the impact you will have on the world. There are plenty of people with high IQ's who don't contribute anything meaningful and many more people with "normal" IQ's who are chan

I upvote for your interesting perspective, but want to downvote for your conclusion. :D

I don't and won't. If the other person doesn't have the hustle to at least come up with a little money, there is a good chance the project is doomed.

Is it possible they are going to be setting your hours or requiring a certain schedule? They might have had a run in with the IRS with a past contractor who didn't pay appropriate taxes. If they pay you 1099 and you don't properly pay you

You are looking at it from a very closed-mind perspective. Not everyone wants to work for themselves. Not everyone sees being self-employed as the "better" way. As an entrepreneur I don't understand that mindset, but there is a time and

I like your idea. My thoughts. Since I keep in contact with most of my family via facebook, have you thought about making this work as an app? I know facebook has photo sharing already, but it is pretty unorganized and you can't have shared

1. Post a link to your landing page. 2. Set a price and allow leads to sign up to be notified when it is ready. Slow rollout. This does 2 things. It let's you know businesses are willing to pay for it, and gives you an list of early adop

I have taken a few of those online IQ tests and they show to be well above average. I don't believe those tests to be accurate and more importantly I don't believe IQ is an accurate measurement of anything meaningful. That being said I am

Isn't this very well suited for something like kickstarter? I know I would "invest".
