Imposter syndrome is our natural social/emotional protection against 'knowitall' syndrome where you speak and act confidently when you are unqualified and mislead people. The ability to speak and act confidently is a learned

Chomsky takes the anti-American, or anti-government side of any and all debates and writes whiny essays full of sarcastic jabs that preach to a choir of the faithful. He makes no attempt to consider the side of government(or whoever he as c

One of the reasons is that people don't know what to do with themselves after they make passive income? Therefore you shouldn't aspire to make passive income? LOL. Passive incomes means financial independence and freedom to make l

It is what it is. I've had an app in the top 100 paid for the past couple years and that's how I interpret the market. The vast majority of money spent on the App Store is impulse buys, not researched decisions.

by soup10 13y ago
It doesn't, App Store is all about impulse purchases. Anything remotely casual should be .99c or free, use ingame purchases to capture extra value. If the game plays half decent and is shiny(has non-amateur art), it should have a pop

The article didn't do anything for me. What's the takeaway? Good freelance journalism work will probably always be in demand? Certain industries are more stable than others? Amidst all the encouragement to think outside the box,

Fisherman's wharf is no colosseum. Golden gates worth a look though. Overall sf city culture is the main tourist attraction of sf, so it makes sense to seek that out. I was pretty unimpressed by sf until seeing some of the massive di

I've always maintained that java itself is not so bad. It's the things people have done with it that make angels cry. People are the problem, not java. Leave java alone.

In the end we are all servants of one kind or another. An entrepreneur works at the service of customers, clients, investors, and employees. A rank and file employee is a servant to their boss. Everyone is a servant to the government, too

I don't get what else there is to disclose. Snowden confirms that the NSA's has "horrifying capabilities" when it comes to collecting data. It sounds like with enough reason to and time they can bug any network and com

The very fact that Edward has the integrity to risk his life in the name of public interest means that he's exactly the kind of person the NSA should be trusting with our data. It's probably his combination of integrity and compe

The NSA have hooks in various data centers and internet backbones. They collect the intel indirectly giving the companies plausible deniability.

Anyone else read the post and take an immediate dislike to the guy? Maybe it's the new yorker in me, but hiding people who exude negativity? Cynicism is cherished way of life for some people sir. Also why do you like baby pictures so muc

The Chinese seem to think that integrity and respect are mutually exclusive. When you are poor or middle class, starting a business that is inspired by other products on the market is pragmatic. When you are wealthy, blatantly cloning oth

This rings really true. It makes me sad when high income earners don't understand this, and live at or above their means. Instead of living below your means and stress free, many people get trapped in a sick consumerist loop where they sp

That's some pretty extreme language. Google has never cut me open and turned me into steaks and sausages. Google has never indicated that i'm somehow lower status than it. Google in fact seems to treat everyone but a few large enterprise

Well connected individuals flipping over-valued companies to large corporations who have more capital than they know what to do with. Wake me up when VCs choose to fund companies that seek something other than validation and profit.

No human being deserves to be treated like a dog. Prisons are exactly that, put em in a cage, feed em a couple times, let em shower so they don't smell. Nobody comes out of prison a nicer person. You shouldn't look down your nose at peop

Maybe the haskell libraries that exist are fantastic, but a non esoteric language like java will also have really solid libraries and tool chains(likely more solid) plus have lots more available libraries so you spend less time reinventing

There's not that many because most people don't care about doing big things. Most of the wealthy are more concerned with protecting their wealth, status and success than risking looking like a fool trying to change the world.

The $99/year is mostly just away to filter out some of the noise from their review queue and tech support I think. I don't think the revenue from it matters at all to apple.(i'm sure if they thought they could get more quality apps by drop
