They don't have to know about this link for it to be valid. They only have to be susceptible to its effects by, say, having a competitor who is aware.

This is a legitimate discussion. Another story on the front page right now talks about a class-action lawsuit against Google for age discrimination. The person that's put up to it has a pretty flimsy case, it appears ("they didn&#

I don't really get the pointed outrage. But this isn't hugely different than anything anybody else does. - Individual products like AdRoll and Perfect Audience let you track users and show them ads. Ever been to a site and had the

I love the supplement industry! This sort of stuff happens all the time, especially around weightlifting supplements. If you're not into picking things up and putting them down, there's 3 ways you can ingest things that aren'

Sure. I'm mad at the headline. The whole setup is a problem that shouldn't exist, because you're using 7-bit floats for an inappropriate range. When are you going to run into 7-bit floats as the default? If you're not th

"7 Bits Are Not Enough for 2-Digit Accuracy If You're Using a Naive Encoding." Information theory says you can fit 100 values into 7 bits. If you're not going to use the right encoding, I can also come up with encodings

Seriously. If you've got a conservative workplace, I wouldn't recommend clicking through. Their site includes topless women ... which I would be hard-pressed to defend as "not adult", regardless of their hand placement.

I'm not questioning your intelligence! I'm sure you could do it. The more common scenario is that there are a ton of people involved, and it's not easy / worthwhile for the person who kicked this off to convince them all

Pro-tip: if you're calling them, they don't have a $100 / month plan to sell you. There aren't many companies that sell most of their business at $5,000 / month through the website. And for those that do, talking to

Is this satire? I mean, it's not "reasonable", but it's also not over-the-top. On the other hand, there's a bunch of things in here that are legally unacceptable: under 30, "just a nice dude" sexism, etc.

Ugh, I hate these graphs. Cumulative graphs make even moderate or bumpy growth look predictable. I guarantee the company KPI here is acquired users / month, not total users. Look closely: January 2013 was probably a kind of scary month

Sales have a longer cycle than these numbers, and while the Superbowl is probably a big enough spend that it's noticeable for some companies, I doubt Budweiser or Nissan saw big bumps in sales from these spots.

Depends on how it's worded. If blocking lawful traffic is banned, then blocking a whole protocol that you don't know the contents of is unlawful. There might have to be some clarification around intent, but there are certainly man

In many cases, I think this is fine. Take the case given in the article: 2 designs that appear equal, but segmenting reveals (incorrectly) that one performs better on Android and the other on iPhone. Statistically, it doesn't matter wh

In a team setting, everybody has a common goal, and I agree that the role of of a good team lead is to steer people towards that goal. Open-source is a different world, because people who only have an interest in, say, syntax will show up.

The new Inbox has "Top Hits", which is a more relevance-based search for email. It seems to work quite nicely, for me. I like that it gives you a couple highly-relevant emails, and the rest are still time-sorted for combing throug

They definitely change prices based on time. I've seen hikes around the 21 / 14 / 7-day marks from a flight, as well as longer-term changes for flights around Thanksgiving and Christmas.

Nothing public right now, but we had a beta started. It would probably look something similar to our current PHP instrumentation ... except it would work on HHVM. If you want to chat, shoot me an email: TR @ appneta. I'm curious to hea

We definitely have discounts if you've got a whole ton of hosts. You'll pay less for the 50th host than for the 1st. That said, a host collects a certain amount of data, so it's not really tenable for us to sell "site li

The funny thing about working for a company like this is that you're still placing a bet on it. If you're selling pickaxes, you're fine ... but New Relic is selling a subscription to pickaxes, which will dry up and go away if

We've got a couple different products, and they're priced slightly differently. http://appneta.com/products/traceview is what you want -- scroll down :)

Hey, sorry that you find it confusing! Part of the problem is that we have a couple different products, and they're not all directly comparable with New Relic. Hence the lack of a central pricing page. TraceView is our offer that'

There's always mixed feelings when a competitor goes public. I work for AppNeta, and while we directly compete against New Relic, I love what they've done for the market. Their competitors were these clunky, on-premise, hard-to-us

So let me get this straight. - Lyft has social pressure to tip. Uber doesn't. - Lyft doesn't aggressively penalize drivers who can't communicate with passengers. Uber does. - Lyft has fewer riders / drivers, making the e

Here's another way to look at it. When you're selling yourself as a freelancer, the last step in the sale is to make the business case. At that point, you've probably already proved that you could do something for the company

The interesting thing about the "we're better than piracy" model is that you always have to be better than piracy, because piracy will always be there. Unlike piracy, when you pay for a service, you're making a judgeme
