This is exactly what I said a few weeks ago about Google pulling out. They are the Yahoo of China. Nobody gives a crap about them. People in the US are so ignorant of other countries that they believe whatever narrow-minded nonsense the med

It's good to hear your completely unjustified opinions about why this is the case.

Good thing for Warren that he got to learn under Graham directly. Getting rejected from med school isn't quite the same as getting rejected from college.

LOL BYU?? Is that a joke? Or are you just clueless?

You have to understand that there is a difference between real Facebook users and older users who just made accounts so they could feel that they were participating in social networking. Real Facebook users have tons of personal information

How on Earth is that trolling? I completely refuted your argument, and you can't respond so you call it trolling. None of those people were 30-year-old career software engineers who had achieved nothing and dreamed of entrepreneurship. They

Why don't you actually read my comment? I said that old people with no achievements aren't going to suddenly become great entrepreneurs. Jimmy Wales - extremely successful options and futures trader Steve Jobs - I forget what company he was

Most users are old people, but most users are also sheep. The shepherds are not old people. Name some great tech companies created by unaccomplished old people who just decided to flip on the entrepreneurial switch.

Great story and a perfect illustration of why old people shouldn't shoot for the stars. Old people do not understand tech trends. They try to, but it is beyond their ability. Friendster was a site created by old people, run by people, and f

Well then I did answer it correctly for me, so the question is bad. I thought there was just some way to change it that I was aware of.

Sorry, but that's a really bad example. Of course a complete beginner is going to be worse than someone with experience. They don't know what to look for in the game.

He has never asked for anything like that, and his decision not to accept the Fields was made long before the controversy with Yau. He is a purist who doesn't see the value in that type of recognition. The work is reward in and of itself. H

Those are on-campus jobs, which are often part of federal work-study program. They are meant to pay less than regular jobs.

This is what one of those nerdy, but not actually smart, kids in class went on to do. The others seem to be on HN. If you can't figure out why saying two collections of points "look alike" doesn't mean anything, then it's no surprise you th

He didn't actually have any offers. The WePay people just made that up to make it seem like they snatched someone from Google or Facebook for no pay. Pretty pathetic.

This is pretty much how consulting firms get their contracts. The ex-employees aren't actually your customers directly. That would imply that they are giving up their own money of your services (something any reasonable ex-consultant would

There are plenty of programmers right out of college making low six figures. Of course, there are plenty of programmers in SF and SV; these are just the good ones.

That's a pretty worthless article. But of course, anything bashing Microsoft will do well with the HN crowd.

Why would 'super talented entrepreneurs' need this to find co-founders?

No, you can't say x0 is the additive identity because 0 is the only additive identity. That would be equivalent to x0=0. Your way is fine if you just use what archgoon wrote to complete it.

China has been the world's top economic power for the VAST majority of the past two thousand years. People need to accept that they are just assuming their rightful place atop the world order. Chinese people come over here and dominate Amer

0 is additive identity. 0+y=y for all integers y. 0 is an integer, so 0+0=0. 0+0 is closed under addition, so (0+0) is an integer, so x (0+0) = x 0 for all integers x. By distributive law, x 0 + x 0 = x 0. By closure under multiplication, x

Are you serious? This is one of the dumbest things I've read on here. Writing a novel is execution. There are hundreds of these books with similar story lines that never got anywhere because of inferior writing. There are thousands of fanta

This is horrible. Now what's a talentless, middle-aged career software engineer with hopeless dreams of entrepreneurship going to do with his time?

I think/hope he's talking about the latter, in which case I completely agree. It's especially annoying to hear those people who get rejected say that they'll apply again in the winter. They're basically saying that they intend to make no me
