Yes, start something yourself, and then you'll understand why the startup management you've worked for thrashes around so much because they're learning the art of business management while on the job. If you going to work for

Hah! Wonderful example of a forgotten feature. It's not often that the tab delimited format is problematic, at least nothing that a simple string-replace operation can't solve, so it's not worth trying to convince every exist

It wasn't just word of mouth but he was also dazzled by what these geniuses were telling him and their enthusiasm. Eventually he realized he needed employees who can deliver more than talk.

Carmack is actually a hard worker and writes code. Too often in the tech industry you bump into people who are "architects" and "strategists" and not hands on at all, or what this article may refer to as a "genius&q

You have the wrong goals. don't try to change the world, change the market, change the way people buy carrots or whatever... Don't try to get millions of customers. These are not personally fulfilling goals, and in some cases thes

Don't work for stock, kids. Work for salary and assume whatever options they're offering will be worth nothing, as it usually is. If the startup wants all employees to take options then say thanks, I'll take whatever options

Actually Twitter didn't just pay IBM, but bought the 900 patents from IBM outright, which hopefully Twitter will not then use offensively as IBM did, so this could be a good thing, and perhaps another way to deal with patent trolls: bu

I like it because you can practically use this to define a grammar for parsing a programming language, because: 1. Each data type can inline express its own value constraints (not just type constraints, but rather value constraints) which i

I don't have much confidence that the dozens of other starry eyed bitcoin startups out there are any better prepared than Mt. Gox was at operating a high stakes financial exchange. This phase in bitcoin history would be less painful if

Unfortunately this guy doesn't posses the motivation and focus to even run a lemonade stand because he'd rather be hacking on cash registers instead. CEO was not his calling, and neither was CTO.

I'd be less concerned about code quality and technical best practices and more interested in knowing if Mt Gox had any internal notion of preventing common stock market manipulation tricks such as wash trades and chandelier bidding. I

Well if that's so untrue then you should take your mythbusting campaign to the Mt Gox page on WikiPedia where it clearly states this was the original intent of their business. Mt Gox stands for "Magic The Gathering Online eXchange

Not your fault. Recruiters make you feel special because they want you to just go the interview, but in reality you're the commodity being traded, and the real customer is the employer. Frankly recruiters hate me because I know how the

Please spare us with the royal attitude. Congratulations, you know how computers work, and so do thousands of other people who work harder and cheaper than you. Recruiters don't care if you, candidate number 947392, is annoyed or not.

I worked on a VRML retail store that had 3D products on 3D shelves and 3D customer service reps you could chat with. It was just like shopping in a real world retail store, except you're tripping on LSD flying uncontrollably upside dow
