Yeah, so what it says is that some of the other publishers should have also held out. By the time it got down to HC it was too late.

Lets make it a real life situation: delete all the accounts (in 14 days) and shut down the site forever. Plenty of companies do this. Do you still feel the same way? Human nature is weird in a way, we feel better about someone telling us th

Are you saying that he isn't at it above the level of the average high school graduate? I would argue that he has made more serious progress and impact that most of us ever will. Of course no doubt some will say that Tumblr is worthless to

Hardly, this is only true if you believe that high school is the most effective way to gain the knowledge that high school teaches and/or that we are still stuck in a credentials orientated world that won't let someone without a high school

On the back of increased visits from this thread you should probably raise prices :P

In terms of the situation on earth, you don't need a large amount of survival from an extinction level event. Even if it was a few thousand diverse people in underground nuclear powered bunkers we would eventually build back up.

Lizzy McGuire was a pretty good kids show. I think that era of Disney channel shows was a bit better. My sister and I are separated by 7 years, the stuff she grew up with on Disney Channel was pretty different (early 2000's).

What people are getting at is that if at the same time as the dilution the market places a greater value on shares (due to what they think a company can do with the money). Then they don't necessarily have to lose value over the short term.

I think it would be holding a lot of people back from buying. Maybe it is great once you start playing, from images online though it looks weird and awkward to use.

If this does happen it will be very interesting to see Tumblr's progress over the next year. Will give insight into whether Yahoo has turned the corner or whether it is the same Yahoo we have seen in the past 5 years.

Am I the only one that thinks this is a legitimate? I could see myself thinking anything suffixed with "with friends" that is an app as part of the Zynga range. Granted that fact that it isn't a game could be enough to remove some of the co

Yeah, the killer is the lead times, if it were decided right now to build a replacement it would be a long time before any results would be seen. Too bad the program wasn't devised it terms of building more than one from the start.

I think given the cost of this mission relative to things like a space shuttle launch it would have/ still is better to build more than one. Although I can't really say too much as Australia is useless at putting any real money into space s

Maybe, most of us aren't involved in it. Since day one I never found g+ to be an accessible place to converse with people I know or people who share interests. I am sure there are some great posts going around limited circles of people, jus

I think it is okay, as long as you have a backup plan. Can be advantageous to keep the code required to build the project small and have people pull dependencies as required.

Yeah, not sure why people are being negative. I would understand that it would be selfish to direct Google funds to this research. Don't we all direct a large amount of our personal funds though to things that benefit us?

The market for unique/ handcrafted looking stuff would probably be even bigger than the market for actual handcrafted. Handcrafted takes a ton of time and adds a large premium to price.

I don't think that getting attention reduces his chances of being reinstated at all. Makes it more likely they will just reinstate the account to make the negative story go away.

The article states that he transitioned out of the company over 4 weeks, presumably the company was able to go on without him. I don't think investors will take it badly, I don't think they really want to have a founder who's heart isn't in

PHP documentation is actually pretty good, there is a joke to be had about the comments on the docs though.

That is the premise of research arms in industry, such as Microsoft research? No idea whether they end up being co opted by business pressures or not?

This is measuring something different though. I could have a bad article that heavily pushes an offer and a very good article that doesn't. The time on page can give you a relative statistic to compare your articles and develop a more engag

Although in this case I think it would be hard for this author to enforce his/her rights and still remain completely anonymous?

They popularized the idea and the term used to refer it. Obviously their anecdotes don't prove anything.

For most people the early start only has to be done because we are stuck in bad working structures. Sure some people need to be in at a certain time to collaborate but for many it is just arbitrary and they aren't achieving any more by bein

Mark Zuckerburg has done more harm to the human race than anyone else his age? I get the point he is trying to make and Mark is no saint but that is a ridiculous statement.
