Guess i'm in the minority of users here who loves this app and really wanted a facetime like thing on Android. Hangouts work, but it's heavy and not a good experience overall. And facetime is ios only, so Duo will definitely bridg

Its tough to prepare a universal format for all ATS to parse and if there is one, they would have been promoting that format all along. Some ATS keep first name, last name, email as the only mandatory fields and in that case a basic resume

So when the first and second year RSU's mature and you quit, you can still sell the 20 RSU's though right?

This is such a deal for Randstad. Monster is the only brand which has presence in multiple countries with significant market share. But as aggregators(read Indeed) grew, the traditional job boards lost the value. Monster has infact blocked

Way to innovate by ripping off the name and feature of Snapchat!:|

Well yes, Snapchat refused and is the only non FB mobile app in top 5 social i guess.

In a nutshell, yes. The fact that it came in Bloomberg(all major investors/traders heavily read) also kind of supports your observation.

The 360° video embedded on the top is amazing and Bloomberg is one of the few media companies who uses some serious visualizations. I guess it's very difficult for FB to own VR since Vive is giving big time competition. Even as a platf

I agree to the article in general. But most of the keywords in job description are put up to set some expectations or if you have a project that needs people who already know things.

I don't think they would have any regulatory challenge. Remember comcast invested in Vox media earlier? Not sure how will the net neutrality be affected with this acquisition, but this is mostly done to build a huge media/entertai

Since you were part of Myntra, may be you can answer this. Why does the customer service suck in general? Do they not invest enough in the technology, service people?

Not sure what are you looking at. They do have a great mobile website and i could see it.

May be because there is plenty of opportunity for upselling StatusPage to the existing and new customers of Atlassian?

True! Guess a couple of banner advts on the side of the page wouldn't bother anyone, the intrusive one's definitely are the reason most hate advts.

If you watch TV/look at billboards, you are already being tricked everyday. Why advts online are so malicious? Edit: This was a genuine question and I don't understand the down votes :|

Yeah! And on top of it, none of the western social networks have been able to crack the chinese market yet. Wechat/Weibu etc are popular with millions of users. So no deep pocketed company can crack the market easily.

Agree! But, the nationalism display happens because of 2 reasons. 1) People making fun of how all Indian villages doesn't have electricity and it is spending money which is a waste. When someone makes this point on social media, people

The game is very latency sensitive and it makes complete sense to use a cloud and distribute the servers based on the user load : locations and that's what he plans to do as mentioned in the article.
