Ok. You've now reported that to me, the Keeper of the List. Prove your claim. Prove that you're credible. Seriously, it's not as easy as, "Someone made a complaint. Ban the subject for life." There will be people wh

"Okay, and I would like someone to build and operate for me an exact Facebook clone for $5. Since I have made a real offer here, I should also be counted right?" Now you're being ridiculous. We're not talking about peopl

No, you don't. With that level of paranoia, you could say that you shouldn't drive anywhere, because you might get into an accident.

No, it isn't. It is not a matter of logic that the incentive is removed. One could logically say that if the company wanted people to continue subscribing, they would have to keep up with the bugfixes and patches.

The vast majority of startups paying sub-market salaries are either going to fail, or be acquired in such a way that the workers don't see anything meaningful from their "generous options package". And this article is about t

And then wages will back down a bit. But I don't think anyone could argue that we are anywhere near that point.

To make the joke work, I could only pick one. I thought naming things was the funnier option.

I believe they were talking about the supply of labor, not the supply of products for people to buy.
165.
by s73ver 9y ago
Well, kinda. Those are supply problems, but the supply is low because the wages are poor.

I thought the hard thing in software development was naming things and off by one errors?

SPOILER QUESTION So the thing mentioned above is not something you know from the get go?

Are you trying to suggest that Craigslist hasn't been updated in that 10 years? The UI might not have, but I guarantee you that various changes in business direction and in regulation have required Craigslist to make changes to the sof

Individual coverage is crappier than group coverage, especially if many of the ACA reforms get rolled back as the GOP wants to do. Pre-existing conditions, yearly and lifetime caps, etc.

Unfortunately without the protections that most show business workers enjoy.

by s73ver 9y ago
As it turns out, many, many, many districts are majority white people. What these districts do is make sure there are some that aren't.
