Maybe...and maybe not. Hopefully they won't decide to play WoW in the background and not get any work done. I've had this experience with remote teams and sadly had to let many 'gamers' go.
"Experts suggest it would amount to 2,500 Swiss francs ($2,550) a month for adults and around $625 a month for kids. " $625 for kids is a lot. This would give women an incentive to have as many kids as possible to get…
I'm really sick of articles trying to take things like this and associating them with Donald Trump, when he has nothing to do with it. Terrible dictators support Obama. Does this mean that Obama is evil? In reality, the…

Leave it to Vox to expect the government and the system to figure out all of life's problems for you. This has to be written by a millennial. Would you say that I am 'unpaid labor' because I have to do all the work of…
They are adding jobs. However, we now having more people making less money for essentially the same job. It's a win for consumers, because it's more convenient and in some cases, cheaper. But it's a lose for the people…

While Red Hat does make a profit, it's not on the actual software. Because it's Open Source, Linux is now a commodity. You need to make money either on support (which requires way more manpower), books, or things like…
I continued to program on the side, because I wanted it to eventually replace my 9-5..and it did 5 years ago. I agree with the App store, but the app store isn't the only way to make money as an independent developer.

Most business owners don't hire an employee 'just because you know them'. They try to find the best candidate through the people they already know. It's all about risk/reward. A random candidate will most likely be a…
Try being Conservative or Republican on any platform online and you will be harassed, bullied, and silenced. I've even been harassed for supporting the wrong library in an open source project. Harassment and bullying…
Programming, like anything of substance, takes time, energy, and discipline.
It becomes censorship when a moderator removes a comment or discussion based purely on personal beliefs and disagreements. Moderation should be about removing the trolls, not what it has become, which is censorship. It…
99% of the new companies I see on HN and elsewhere have either no business plan or a company that will most likely fail. Randomly investing in these companies without any actual effort to mitigate risk, will result in…
