Would love to see Google, or anyone, come shake up the Australian market. We are still beholden to low bandwidth, almost non existent upload and data usage caps. We also have a national broadband network that most people will never see due

That is pretty insulting, especially given the subjective nature of naming things. Also code complete is ancient, sure much of it is still relevant, I don't think it is the be all and end all though for the modern programmer.

The problem emerges though where there is absolutely nothing of value left, or at least minimum living standard value, left for a large group of people to do. No mater how willing these people are there is going to be very little movement u

I worry with a system like this that you could find yourself removed not because you provided bad service but because people think about the scale in different ways. On amazon for example 4,5 is considered positive and 1,2,3 negative. You r

At the top of the list I would say would be bringing a critical mass of users under the one service. Everything kind of follows from that, the actual service is less important and can likely be replicated by many companies.

So the health care system puts people in a position of helplessness where they would require a handout to have any hope. Also Hank wouldn't have been able to walk again without the treatment paid for with drug money. I wouldn't sa

The model is outdated, most links are now shared in closed networks which will happily nofollow everything. Also depending on your niche many of your users may have never actually placed a link anywhere before (outside of a closed network s

Yeah, you could easily get though by knowing the method of calculation without ever having understood a model of what they actually are.

That revenue may have worked against them. It puts some tighter bounds on what they would need to get to subscriber wise and the kind of conversion rate to paid accounts that could realistically be obtained. Companies that haven't star

The vast majority of people using stack overflow are simply consuming questions/ answers they have arrived at via a Google search. These people won't care about points but it doesn't tell us anything about the motivations of

I don't understand how stat counter gets away with what they do. They offer stats similar to google analytics. They seem to get most of their ranking from including a link back to them with a random anchor text from a set of terms they

I think this is the issue people should focus on more. We are at the point where one external entity that you have no contract with and is under no obligation to continue looking on your business favorably can if it chooses send you out of

I think they just mean that Iron Maiden have never got that saturation level of mainstream radio play that some top pop hits get. At least in Australia they are massively popular among metal fans but in the mainstream they don't have a

Is it really about green? I thought it was more about enforcing cars that cost less to maintain throughout the course of a season. They have been heading that way for a long time, restricting teams to a set number of engines and gear boxes

The best thing eBay could do is copy Amazon in how a third party listing works. On Amazon we can throw up a feed of our entire inventory. On eBay you need to create a separate listing for each product you want to list. In effect it means mo

Does youtube do anything smart around showing the same ads multiple times? I watch a fair bit on twitch who don't have a lot of ads targeted at Australia. I think they do the advertiser and the viewer a disservice by repeating the same
