Everyone would be willing to buy a Laptop for $5 but pricing one at $500 doesn’t mean demand isn’t matched or the business model is flawed. It costs more than $5 to make a laptop. This is an extreme case but often I see the argument that it

Yes but what he’s saying is that if you take that money from high executive pay then you can offer both. You have three variables rather then just two, most businesses ignore the executive pay. That’s where the example breaks down. Now if y

It's about the price of generating the electricity in terms of the damage it does to the environment (rather than dollar amount) compared to the value the cryptocurrencies generate. Most people look just at electricity costs and not el

We’re cobstantly dealing with environmental issues and global warming yet burn incredible amounts of energy and carbon compared to the value this gives us. It would probably be more environmentally friendly to not use crypto currencies then

I’m amazed that your comment isn’t higher. That was my first thought as well. They may be great design wise but if they don’t covert at all it means very little. Many tv commercials than win awards are terrible at converting for example.

From a higher level maybe don’t start a software company. Just because I have an idea say on how to make a better oven I should not open one until I at least have some industry experience and knowledge first. In other words if your whole bu

The answers I read here are classic over engineering. Sometimes the simplest answer is the best answer, and you don't need to build a complex system. That is to say the same methods that are used to defend against a gun, either another

They have the choice to build their own OS. The reason they don’t is clear, it’s too expensive. Google instead of charging money requires certain licensing conditions. If they truly want full control they could build it themselves but obvi

I think it’s a blip caused by people upgrading their cpu due to spectre and meltdown. Not always because their cpu may be exposed but also as an excuse.

My view is that microservives is more of a workaround to company culctures and silos than a software solution. At least in most cases.

I hope it comes to Canada. I'm willing to pay to remove commercials from YouTube. I don't really care about the extra shows, etc., I just want to be able to remove the ads. $12/mth is worth it for me.
