Let's nip this trend in the butt. Outside the organization in question we really have no idea what's going on and who is or is not responsible for a particular poor outcome. It's not fair to the individual - or to the real ex

Either double down and ask for a shit-ton more equity, or quit and find a better job. Life is too short.

I've found this to be like serious sports in high school or college. When there are no choices to be made in your life, you do not make bad choices.

Yes, see jailbreaking. iPhones were hacked before a native SDK was officially available.

Usually you would throw in some radomization, ie, 5% of the time the barometer would tell you the opposite of what it really thinks you should do.

Or, it's like so many things in life and it is what you make of it.

Let's face it, "teach big business a lesson" is a convenient press tactic. First Round is a bunch of capitalists like the rest of us.

Save only the hash, or use a data structure like a bloom filter.

It's a bit like choosing your local credit union instead of BofA. Go Daddy is too big to fail but there is no Federal Reserve backing them up.

Brilliant for you, yes. But when does amazon begin to consider this a bug, not a feature? I worry for the day that some new feature is introduced in .azw files that will break legacy devices. Now that would be evil.

Tell me I'm not the first to see the irony of a page full of comments debating ntp, GPS and atomic clocks, while there are two interesting front page stories about the value of ambitious goals.

How do you figure? The Saudi Prince is "investing" regardless of how the equity is purchased. The question is if this is an "investment" from twitter's perspective. Signs seem to point to no.

The PA office is a bit of a glorified regional sales office. SAP Labs in Palo Alto however does a lot of interesting and original dev work. There are quite a few very good engineers there who would take real offense at this statement.
