There's no reason to have the "claps" -- they could easily measure engagement without the readers having to actively do anything (visits to page/time on site, etc.). This reeks of a gimmick/someone trying to do some

There's no way that affiliate links can pay the bills for publishers; numbers don't ad up (otherwise everyone would do it, and no one does -- well, actually, there's extremely limited situations where it works in some consume

I love this, but I worry about longevity -- if we convert all our code snippets to this, and then this dies, all the older blog posts become useless. You'd be surprised how many reads even 5+ year old blog posts can get.

And that's the problem -- the CEO wasted a ton of time and resources trying to create a Spotify competitor that just burned resources.

And you may be absolutely right -- I'm going off what I've heard from young people anecdotally out of college who say they weren't given a second look because they weren't from MIT or Cal Tech. But perhaps that's on

Let's break down the reality of this situation as it currently stands: 1) You can't say what you want at work, period (there are no first amendment protections at work, just from the government). The person who posted the memo was

The site as it stands doesn't, as looking at the site currently has plenty of jobs that requires passing a criminal background check. It appears this site is more idea than execution at this point.

In the US the bank sends a notary free of charge with all your paperwork to sign. What a pain that you don't get this service!

I'm sorry but I call bullsh*t on a lot of aspects on this story. I think this may have been true 5-10 years ago, but not now, not the way the Web works now. Everyone ignores those cross-link e-mails. Getting the amount of articles he s

You can't just file on behalf of someone else; copyright doesn't work that way. If you own copyright, you can sue. If you don't, you can't. If Zillow doesn't own the images, this is one and done -- she wins.

So much in here is interesting (and right), but the best part I think comes at the end: Zillow doesn't own the images. So whether or not you there's a legal argument for fair use, Zillow has absolutely no right to file a copyright

I'm thinking I'm going to listen to the many, many outside experts, plus what I see myself reported by other insiders, vs. one anonymous insider I run across on a site who worked for her and appears to have bias.

Thank you for laying it out so well. I am a female executive and I am so sick of everyone saying that she's only getting criticized because she's female. So what, we can't get criticized if we do a horrible job? If we treat o

Why not pay the reviewers? I don't understand this -- they're the most important part of the process. Pay the reviewers for their time and that might start to turn this around.

Did you watch the decisions she made as they came down? It was bad call after bad call after bad call. Pretty much no one thinks she did even a mediocre job.

I know someone who said they wanted to pick it up as a second job on evenings/weekends but after doing it for a few weeks and crunching the numbers when all was said and done they only averaged $5 an hour -- just wasn't worth it.

Exactly, the error is on LASD's end most likely. Whether he likes it or not he's going to have to get a lawyer to get this resolved.

You need to hire a lawyer. It's not fair but that's how this is. This is going to haunt you forever -- not just this account! You have to do so ASAP and get this straightened out so you have the paperwork to prove it next time thi
