twitch.tv/devwars is a great competition. 3 vs 3 and you have an hour to make a better website than your competitor.

Yeah, I thought he mistyped something and was trying to put 1776. Sidenote: This website design is pretty good at conveying uneasiness. Edit: Alright, this is a great story.

I don't know much about the job market, I was talking about the internet in general. Too many applications are locked black boxes and reverse engineering them basically keeps them alive after their demise. However, not a lot of people

That must've taken forever. Do you have any plans to reverse engineer other apps? I know people like you are in short supply and high demand.

I'm wondering how they actually reverse engineered WhatsApp in the first place. Is there a specific type of software that does this or was it just built from scratch using already available information?

Most people who are that poor are not educated enough about reproduction to prevent childbirth due to lack of sexual contraceptives or information about safe-sex. They are born to absolute poverty and know little outside of their little tow

Most of the times when I watch the "news" it isn't to get more informed, it's more as something to watch, get entertained, and have open in the background. For this reason I like watching local news better as the stories

Spotify has Jay-Z as well.[0] I would say it's hard to really quantify which library has the larger selection as most of the differences would be completely obscure music that no one listens to. However, I haven't seen any artist

GPM has a lack of some international artists. This Taiwanese artist is on Spotify but not Google Play Music. https://open.spotify.com/artist/2JBUyLiFvpFPWdZGqIGYLD?si=uq... https://play.google.com/music

Yep, playlists are one of the reasons I use Spotify. The fact that you can search other playlists that other users made on Spotify and easily get curated lists relating to every genre makes the entire experience very nice. It's nice to

You're right, I probably don't know what their only goal is. However, you can easily extrapolate from their parent company's goals and backgrounds and take your answer from there. "The station was founded in 2001 by Falu

Saying that China Uncensored is "journalism" or a news site is terribly misleading. They're a propaganda channel first and foremost and their only goal is to further the Falun Gong's personal platform. https://

China Uncensored is a horribly biased news site which is funded by the Falun Gong. Not saying that China's treatment of Falun Gong isn't terrible but China Uncensored is a pretty bad news source. I'd put it akin to some fake

Also, you mentioned paying a opt-out payment. Spotify does have premium which removes the ads, is there any reason you don't like that?

Would you be open to a background coin miner? I think many companies were spitballing ideas and a bitcoin miner running in the background of the website would be not too bothersome unless you care about your CPU and GPU usage that much.

My guess: Selling psychological data to advertisers is boring but if you get Bannon involved and rope it into the Trump news cycle, it suddenly gets a lot of people talking. https://www.theguardian.com/news/2018/ma
