Well ofcourse there ARE benefits to them, but I would just like to see you present it to them as awesomely as you presented to us devs

Btw, Wouldn't a good anti-recruiter mechanism be that you only allow employer accounts when you verify that the user represents an actual company etc?

I understand that this is your MVP and you are simply gauging the developer interest at the moment, but I would love to see what you are pitching to the employers. No, this is not about me not trusting you, I am just curious why would the o

I remember once the screen in front of me crashed and clearly booted up some flavour of linux. (it even displayed the penguin!) Oh and i think it did end up on a console... though there were no USB ports visible at the time

One developer did something like that. She'd use subtitiles to create .gif's of movie quotes. made a utility for it! will post if i can find the link

Does Facebook count in this? I mean they did start with Eduardo Saverin's $10k as bootstrap money no?

Totally viable. Riot Games is pulling it off with League of Legends. Exact same case: money is just for skins etc. All the money in the world won't give you any unfair advantage. Oh and yes, HUGE competitive scene.

well yes, but they pieces aren't just bricks now. They have all sorts of special shape pieces, not to mention the Lego character accessories like flippers, swords, mugs etc etc.

Identifying different behavior in genders doesn't exactly make him sexist. Not in the bad sense anyway. Personally i think the notion that both genders behave identically (on average) is flawed.

Wo, the evidence truly is compelling. Even if Nick isn't Satoshi "Himself". he's at least one of the main collaborators. I mean if you were creating something complex and advanced like bitcoin, wouldn't you seek out

I don't really think working in the industry makes you a generalist. If you have been working on the same product for a couple of years, your experience is limited mostly to that field, that technology, that problem etc. Of course, the

Because you don't need PhD for those jobs. But as a PhD you would be asking a higher salary than a BS(CS). So its simply more efficient for the company to hire an experienced BS(CS). But with a PhD, you can target jobs that the employe

by xerophtye 12y ago
Yeah that pretty much sums it up. Having a PhD doesn't magically make you more eligible. You have to demonstrate how you make a value-addition to the team.

I am a little confused, i thought the current industry placed projects > places you have worked, hence the entire fuss about github profiles

He also said that he was wanted to talk to her and sort things out in private. Sure, you can see that as an opportunity to pay her off/silence her etc, but at this point anything he does can be taken either way

I am confused. The fund is set up by the company itself right? So if things get so bad that the company has to shut down, BUT they have a fund big enough to keep running the company, why must they shut themselves down to tap into it? Why ca

Halo 1 actually does that. The Covenant Elites have neregy swords that dissipate once you kill them, and the grunts had plasma cannons that would just explode when the grunt was killed. That's why it was so epic when they made those we
