This seems horribly broken. I do realize that recruiting fees for a dev may approach this amount, but HubSpot has to have a high enough profile to better attract talent than this. What incentives are they giving people to apply directly? Wh

BluRay won in terms of it stuck around, while HD-DVD died off, but I don't think BR has overtaken DVD's the way DVD's overtook VHS. For the longer game (which is probably only another half-decade), I'd argue that streaming/OnDemand is the r

The sales figures are compared against similarly priced cars by Mercedes, BMW, and Audi. If you looked at total sales of those three companies, they would crush Tesla. I'd imagine Audi is the lowest of the three and they probably sell as ma

>You are right of course. However, stationary restaurants tend to have an inherent monopoly for a location and have little incentive to innovate and deliver a decent product. I disagree with this. The failure rate for restaurants is ext

I like Fireworks for rapidly prototyping designs. I don't really use the slice/export feature, but for prototyping before committing to code, Fireworks works perfectly for me. I've been using it for over 10 years now and have become extreme

Was going to say the same thing. I hate to be pedantic, but a better term is "fill in the blank". Traditional forms would actually be closer to a MadLibs interface than this. Still, I knew exactly what the form was from calling it a MadLibs

Great design is significantly more than good/trendy aesthetics. I don't think UX and IA can be minimized and made generic enough to fit into a one-size-fits-all theme. You still need to be thoughtful in how you design and display informatio

It's tough for TV to monetize the 55+ demographic because advertisers don't care about it. Since they aren't being catered to by TV, it would make sense for other entertainment ventures who can monetize them to compete for them.

I'd expect that there would be some some central database of these machines that track their incoming and outgoing money that all the casinos feed their data into. It would seem crazy that this type of activity would go undetected to the tu

If Wordpress.com accepts BitCoin, couldn't you just acquire some BitCoins not tied to your personal ID (you can use Moneygram with fake information and route it through mixers, buy them offline, etc.), and utilize Tor/Tor Services to set up

I'm sure things vary by state, but I think if you're careful, it's something you can easily get away with. As long as you don't need to have frequent visitors, aren't making tons of noise, and generally make it look like your apartment isn'

I had a billing issue with Time Warner Cable where I had fees that were not being paid. My service is through an agreement with my employer and TWC and my service is discounted and paid for directly out of my paycheck. So one day, my intern

I'll definitely back up the desire to see feeds of reporters and bloggers rather than, or in addition to, players. For example, I'm a Cavs fan. Big news right now is the Cavs' search for a new head coach. I'm much more interested in that th

I think for buyers, agents make a lot of sense. Largely, because of how the system works, they're free to buyers, as the seller's pay the agent fees. The problem is that the seller's must pay for both the buyer's agent as well as the seller

I think the thing most people struggle with is #2. Prior to reading Getting to Yes and taking a seminar on Negotiations, it was certainly the thing I most failed to realize. People seem to be so concerned about "losing" during negotiations

I'm wondering why the 15 other teams aren't on board yet. If the price is only 100k, it's nothing to an NBA team. If those other 15 teams don't already have an advanced analytics team in place, then it makes sense not to have the camera unt

If I post a job to one of these sites, it's pretty much guaranteed to get 20+ responses from devs in India. Most are pre-written responses that don't really show that the project was read in any sort of detail. I'd actually be curious to fi

Thanks for this and I'm looking forward to trying it out! I've long been annoyed by delayed menu dropdowns, but also having to maintain fine mouse control to get the dropdown to behave how I want it to behave. I don't know why the delay bot

I can't believe how much coverage this story has gotten, particularly in popular media. I expected lots of dust in the tech community, but CNN has been publishing op-ed's everyday since the announcement. I just don't get the idea that the r

I think the point "blindly following A/B tests is bad" is valid, but I don't completely follow the path this article paves to lead you there. For part one, regarding forecasting, you were A/B testing within the segment you were targeting, w

I posted something similar a few weeks ago when there was a link to a blog post talking about how getting rid of your smartphone will free you from the shackles. Again, I never understand the extremes. I own a fair amount of stuff. I use a

Very nice idea. I love the idea of being able to find random, good value, vacation ideas. It would be nice to be able to apply some filters, or to have your algorithm filter out some of the junk ideas. For example, I was given several optio

My parents bought me a Yamaha PSR-230 on a whim for Christmas when I was probably 14 or 15 in the mid-90's. I had been playing drums for several years and they must have figured I needed to branch out! They had no idea what MIDI was and I w
