I don't said that, but just imagine everything that is done in the IT is only allowed to do by graduates. What degree is best for repairing computers? The best you can find is probably someone who does this out of joy and knows most of the

This sounds funny first, but i have read about this in a book i can't recall right now. Especially asian countries have a extreme passive and submissive language. The receiver is responsible to interpret the language. In this fatal example,

Waitwhat? Did you ever read the name of this site? It is called "Hacker" News. Learning Java at college doesn't change anything for the computer repair guy. I know what government means then, you have to hire a 4000$ guy to repair your com

One question: Why are they not speaking English? I heard from fatal command mistakes with pilots an Asian country and now everyone has to speak English. Is this again some stupid patriotism thing (i am German, i know the French attitudes),

I don't think that's the whole story. This could also be a PR spin. Google said later very often they feared an Apple monopoly on the smartphone market and Android is there to prevent it. Also Schmidt hates Microsoft to the bone and is happ

When i think about the volume, maybe it won't be that bad. A demand based increase will be unlikely and there could be a lot of institutional portfolio investments. I rather see this money at Facebook to be independent, what also means less

They know they are overvalued and the stock will go down from there. Why? Because the IPO ist gigantic, could be one of the biggest in history. Google did start with just 1,9B. They were thinking the opposite. In order not to be ripped of,

It was so successful because these useless "Social Media Experts" needed a metric to justify their job. Nobody asked the techies if this could be a trojan horse.

You are not using it? This is maybe the reason why you don't understand this. For most people like me it is a tool to communicate to over 150 people and they expect me to have it. With most of them i can't communicate with mail any more. Fa

Bullshit, it is not "completely voluntary". When everyone is using a communication service and there is no alternative. They claim to have a billion users. Short it is a monopoly, they have a lot of power and when you start to abuse it, lik

You are right, but Linux is superior here, because it is open source and you know everything about it. For Windows you can simply buy a 0day and that's it. When you write something for Linux, you can't be sure the targeted program is even o

Then why not go for an IPO? These companies don't go public because they are not sustainable yet. This is what VCs are for, they take the risk to lose 100% of their investment. When now the founder cashes out, he is not in the same boat as

The irony is, the core of reality TV is not to show reality. Everything is exaggerated, every prejudice about "Startup Junkies" will be exploited until there is nothing left.

Google doesn't offer direct debit here in Germany for example. Credit cards are not so common here, but every 12 year old with a bank account can use direct debit. There is a big chunk of money lost if Germans are not able to pay with Googl

He is a radical, he thinks in absolutes. We need these people to get something started because their motivation comes from seeing something black and white. The sad thing is just, that these people often die unhappy.

It is still a premium price, and the people are willing to pay this because it is a status symbol. The huge profits come from a overpriced product, Coke makes his profits from a clearly distinctive product in huge amounts. You have to expla

They managed to make a mobile phone a status symbol, but that is more a branding achievement than a technical one. Today i saw a garbage collector (really) with an iPhone, and both of my parents have one. The status symbol fades when everyo
