If that is an issue surely the answer is more assisted drones. Better to have someone sitting in safety viewing a high def and possibly magnified camera output to identify things that someone taking a quick look in the cockpit while under f

On the flip side when you are winning it is nice to be able to get some reward for your hard work in being able to run through the other team.

I agree with you midnight to 6am Sunday would probably be okay. Just would be a really bad time to get an email stating an issue with a payment gateway or marketplace listings or an issue with the website.

6 hours... We run a 4 person company and 6 hours during the weekend would still be a problem for us. Given a company larger than 10 might actually upgrade (small amount of shared email accounts) I could see it causing big problems for some.

Actually it is likely worse than the US, the US government spying would generally stay US government only. Whereas ours in Australia is likely accessible by US agencies.

Publishers probably weren't complaining when Amazon would buy their book at wholesale and take a loss with massive retail discounting. What publishers want is for Amazon to sell at low margin so they get volume and the publishers get e

It isn't actually all that hard. There is an API call to get the prices for each seller on an item. Not sure if that also works for Amazon as the only seller listings but you can definitely track the marketplace with it.

As opposed to there probably aren't really good reasons. Doing it in addition to source control seems like something everyone should do though. The way people generally use source control isn't to push every single line added or c

Maybe, in many markets the total value to capture, while likely heading up over time, is unlikely to double because there are 2 top quality startups in the space rather than one. So often it could be the case that the competition to dominat

As it says in the article that the people that get into computer science in IIT are the best of the best in this test. I wonder how the quality of graduate compares with those coming out of mid/top US universities.

To be fair, many of the things you mention are self inflicted. Fair enough some people have it tough through no fault of their own, some though make choices that set them up for the lifestyle they complain about.

Really it is a pretty horrible business to be in. You are totally at the mercy of the publishers, should you be really successful at customer acquisition and monetizing then you will be rewarded with higher royalties. As it stands I don

I would argue eliminating the streaming services would more likely make the pie smaller. I don't think all the people paying x a month or ads supported are going to suddenly start buying albums.

I'd say that is a fairly mainstream geek kind of thing, I associate it with the kind of video game playing, reddit frequenting geek. (Yes overly broad stereotypes).

Does anyone have a good example app which is more involved than a single or couple of models and uses ember data? Hacking this past weekend it seems harder to find much in the way of solid guidance past very simple apps.

Also if you are picking an area with competition it is very hard to stand still and collect your $1000/ month, either your pushing on to something bigger or your $1000/ month starts declining pretty fast.

This extends to imports as well, often the duties run up around 100% of the item price. Not only that but items get stuck in customs for weeks as I assume they go through everything to level these duties. From the outside selling things int
