Poker is awesome. Free poker doesn't teach you much. Programmers value security and structure. With free money there is no structure to poker. People will go all-in, or raise the big blinds. There is no accountability and nothing to risk. O

Quality matters. You don't qualify if you earn more than 10k. You qualify if you earn more than 1k. Therefore if you earn more than 1k and less than 10k you have created a quality app otherwise your app is junk. RIM and FAIL are synonyms. H

They have a stock pile of money they wouldn't have had to play with for the next 2-3 years while they slowly grow their earnings. If they priced it at half they would have had half the money. Now they can sit back and relax. If you read the

Great idea. I would test but currently no access to an android device. Good competition in this category as of late as many people are entering. Think of it as a positive because it is validating your idea.

I like the UI. Really simple. Maybe avoid duplicates across the tracks. Would require some hardcore regex because of the way all the different sites name the tracks. Some of those sites have a direct DL link so you can scrape and provide a

Yes, sorry. I should have added if you blew it on booze and women. If you purchased anything of value you get screwed over by paying a higher tax rate.

*Grocery stores usually have 3-5% margins. I was using Google as a hypothetical if their margins were low. So basically businesses would charge a sales tax (3%) increasing prices for the consumer. Then the consumer would also pay 3% income

It would be a deferred taxation but over 13-years instead of 1-year for the same amount of money earned, if and only if you haven't spent it all.

I don't follow. If Google was making $100m revenue with $99m expenses currently they would be paying the tax on $1m profit. Under your system if they are making $100m revenue they would pay $3m in taxes which would result in a net-loss of $

There is a stark contrast between income and wealth tax. Income can already be circumvented by leaving money in corporations or paying out to subsidiary companies. There are so many ways people can declare lower income that the 10% becomes

Capital flight is a really big risk with this idea. I don't see the ignorance in that comment but then I am not an economist. Land wouldn't be moved but what about the other taxable wealth items such as insurance, corporate stock and bank d

They might have received an investment of $X which will allow them to offer Y free invites. When they reach that number they will stop providing you with free tokens. I would assume getting the early users would be great for them. Once the

When I was looking into using it there were articles talking about this being phased our sooner or later. I started using Wunderground/YQL as a backup source at that point. Sometimes reading/researching pays dividends.

It is incredibly hard to convince an older organization and its users to use the help desk ticketing system for all inquiries. Even setting up an email like hd@company.com doesn't work all the time. Commenting to see the kinds of ideas that

Sometimes as good as a developer is they don't understand the whole business goal. You kind of need to be hands on at some points. Maybe not in terms of how the database should be structured but maybe some parts of UI. It's funny developers

A really smart freelancer added a clause similar to this to a contract. Payment: Net/30 - 2%, 7. Payment due in 30 days, 2% discount if paid within 7 days. Also they added: If the fees aren't paid within the terms above, there will be a 20%

You guys do have a point. I usually pay freelancers to do my stuff and I feel bad if someone is going to run away after getting their work. I guess it depends on the scope of work. I think in Canada we have a law where if you do something c

Have you provided them with the project? Next time put a backdoor in your code and remove it after payment. Most people don't check.

Well no, I should have been more clear. I accepted a contract instead of full-time work. After being bought out of the 1-year recruiter deal I now get paid by the company instead of the recruiter but at a higher salary. I also posted in the

Their opinion matters in the sense that you can use some points that you probably agree with but do not notice as being an issue for others.

I think the layout part isn't going to effect the developers as much as their users, and their users are probably not going to twitter.com as it is. Most people I know who hate the twitter layout use 3rd party clients to get around that, no
