I find this article a terrible sweeping generalization and opinionated based on the authors perception of success and what it takes to be successful.How about working smarter and not harder

Ah this is going to kill my mobile usage of the site, which is the main way I use the Facebook, website version not the app. Theres no way I'm going to incur bandwidth and annoyance of the sound of ad's playing on my phone. Bandwidth would

Like most things in life, It doesn't matter when you start, more that you start at some point and spend time and effort in getting better.

There's actually alot of things they could fix to improve the user experience. Just signed up for an account and it wasn't overly pleasant. List of a few gripes: * No ajax on name availabilty * very limited secret question options (

I find that American style ad's have an underlining fakeness to them, its hard to put my finger on it. I'm assuming its just a cultural difference being from New Zealand but some ad's from the States just grate me the wrong way. These Apple

I'm not making a comment on the morality of the images only that some automatic content filters might consider it pornography which is usually not allowed in corporate environments

Yeah after reading the FAQ I came to the same conclusion. But also realized that pirates wouldn't actually need this site and could just get their own AIS receiver's

I agree. Would defiantly benefit from some kinda about/info page. But at least it doesn't only have a facebook/twitter login

Very misleading title. Don't think google hosts any of their code on github so apparently they don't contribute to open source?

Yeah I noticed that but in what context can I run this other than command line? I assume its C code but how do I get it to work in the browser? or is it something you'd use in node.js? Guess it's just over my head

It's reasons like this I'll never have a paypal account or offer it as a means of payment on my site
