okay....1920s: anyone can make a car. hundreds of car companies spring up. 1950s: "the big three". 1980s: anyone can make a PC. every strip mall in the country has its own PC builder. 2007: dell, apple, hp. 2009:…
hey yahoo, if you want a social network of chatter, just bring back the one you killed - yahoo news message boards.
you know i once saw you at the yahoo coffee bar wearing a shirt with a giant hammer and sickle on it. my immediate conclusion was that you were a hipster who skipped history. in case you need a little refresher on how…
still fuming over the CL erotic services decision i see
I know a very successful entrepreneur who has been married 4 times now maybe he's just a prick?
if you play your cards right, you could end up being married for fifty years on the other hand, you will likely be "done" with playing mr. web startup guy within ten. you're not going to be forty three going to…
wow how come the bubble hasn't burst yet on key-value dbs? first: unless you run google, yahoo, ebay, amazon, or another top-100 site, chances are you can stretch mysql/memcache more than far enough for your needs. if…
after reading his blog post i'd rather flip him off and let him keep his money. he'll be needing it when yale's endowment manager sees "-76%" printed on the next statement reporting on his clever investments
what a pompous cunt fortunately i have more money than him so i won't have to listen to him and his pansy partners prattle on doubt he is so dickey to the pension funds who phone him up asking when their…
you strike me as an arrogant tool, probably only half as smart as you think you are
explain to me why a news site nearly completely bankrupt is wasting time and energy on hadoop apis??? hadoop is very cool, and yes the nytimes has lots of data, but a company on death's door should probably back off the…
Can we discuss health care without the science fiction and doomsday scenarios? only if you travel back to 1981 before these costs started their long-term snowball
NO ONE WANTS A FREE MARKET SOLUTION FOR HEALTHCARE. get over it. a free market solution means dying baby gets turned away when parent has no money. otherwise it is not a market solution. no one wants this. no one. move…
oh fuck off. there is always some pedantic prick who has nothing intelligent to say but chimes in with "citations????". you get tonight's dipshit award
some points: - healthcare is not a business. get over it. the law says you cannot decline emergency care. there is no business model here, any more than there is in running the navy. its a cost. - you care about public…
viva *bsd. and the linux kernel is progressing nicely as well. its a great time for free OSs.
i don't know anything about cal's departure, but i can say that any large co like yahoo, google, msft, apple etc is more or less impervious against the loss of one or a few technical individuals. his departure may have…
raw io? facebook better go ipo soon, they're running out of abstraction layers to code through
where was thiel bitching about the Fed and its liquidity binge when it was goosing his facebook stake into the billions? haha it will be amusing watching this guy circle the drain with all of the rest of the lauded…
i wonder if amazon will stay on the "wholesale" side of this equation or eventually move into the retail side...seems gdrive or whatever it is google is planning might upset the amazon/N-front-ends racket
i thought 3des was still used in ATMs? my (limited) understanding was that its weakness was balanced by its otherwise maturity...and that a potential hacker had very little time in which to make the crack and make use…
it doesn't matter. employees only become rich if the stock goes crazy. lots of profitable companies have craptastic stocks.
well the point is, and i think this is the original poster's point...questions like this are not relevant to what facebook is doing, and even if it is, its the kind of thing you look up.
haha the amusing thing is that he himself likely only looked up the newton-raphson method ten minutes before phoning you. sadly that is the case for many of these mensa-test mental masturbation questions...if you had…
facebook is indulging the exact same hubris we engaged at yahoo in the late 90s. after an initial cadre of so-so developers rode the wave up, we decided to believe the hype that we were uber-brilliant and suddenly no…
