I thought it was because Umbrella corp was taken
I wish it was my lack of marketing and business skills, that way there would be more room for others to succeed. While I'm not claiming to be a marketing guru, I am successful in business in a different domain. Hence my…
None of the ideas you present are new to me. I've tried them all. I have many friends in the space who have tried them all as well. If anything worked we'd be the first to know. "If it can be phased in a culturally…
People will complain about the code of conduct and again about their banning upon breaking a code of conduct. Managing a community takes a lot of time for something you're not getting paid for.
For general purpose programming I consider the meta languages (ML) to be great. E.g. Rust, Typescript, Swift, Scala, F#, Haskell, Ocaml etc. Something like Hindly-Milner typesystem in order to build good tooling.…
I personally use Vim and Tmux for my IDE. But I build tools for people who aren't me and they need tools specialized for their job. Even general purpose devs can benefit from better compilers and code completion.
I think the point I was alluding to is that the market should be much bigger than it is. And it would be great if open source contributors could make money from their work.
As you point out, sufficiently good. But not great. I agree that the world is a better place with open source. I simply wish there was a culture were developers opened their wallet and supported it. That way we would…
Python, PHP, and Ruby are not great languages. Google, Facebook, and Twitter are successful inspite of them. I'm not saying open source is bad, I'm saying Dev culture in not paying for tools is bad. I agree that ideally…
Not getting paid for open source is how the world works. If you do any of the above you invite yourself to so much criticism that it's not worth it. I have first hand experience of this. I hope to retire next year to do…
Why would SV clash with Trump on this? This seems like a sensible solution to the problem and one I've seen posted multiple times here on HN.
This brings back nightmares I had from working at Microsoft (2009). As a PM; responsibility without authority was the job description. Hallway estimates and schedule chicken was 70% of the job. And the there was stack…
Could be a hypercritical hypocrite. It's a common cooccurrence.
China is an economic house of cards. The best course of action is just to wait it out.
An aside; I recently found out about the Nipster movement, Nazi Hipsters. Be afraid be very afraid
Not a fan of Trump but this is a good thing. See this exert from John Oliver on the effect of such trade deals; https://youtu.be/6UsHHOCH4q8 And that's the existing trade deals, TPP would have made it much worse. There…
I look forward to seeing the parody in HBOs Silicon Valley
It mixes a virtual world with the real world; thus augmenting the real world. I would argue that a fine grain occlusion (individual pixels) vs coarse grain (movable display) isn't that big of a difference with…
Founders can pull money out in later rounds and pocket a lot of cash. E.g. The Secret founders.
Wow that TED talk really explains everything. I get it now.
I'd hazard a bet that augmented reality already peaked with Pokémon Go.
You're correct. I read the principal incorrectly. The Peter principal requires that a person is competent before being promoted. The Dilbert principle doesn't apply either as management has too much power. There must be…
I never said they were alternatives. I specifically referred to federations of democracies where power is shared between state and federal government.
I figured one counter example was sufficient. Thanks for adding to the list
I'll defer to the wealth of online information on this topic. That said even my pro EU friends don't make the claim that the EU is democratic. Usually pointing out that the U.K. and the US are not that democratic…
