TL;DR. PSN is down because Sony is afraid that now that their update servers are running backdoors or trojans.
I do think there is a bubble of people hyping startups. Facebook got a stupid valuation and everyone started reporting that the 1999-2001 bubble was back. But that was just Goldman Sachs bullshitting everyone. It…
Can you explain why someone would leave that much money in there? Are there tables that you can bring 250k to? Do these sites pay interest? How do you trust these sites? A casino in Las Vegas will get huge fines if one…
it is unfortunate that they didn't consult you before submitting. :(
I would recommended hiring people that are the best fit for the position. There are plenty of reasons to hire someone that will do a good job, rather than a code ninja that finishes projects in 15 minutes.
You don't know the value of employee X until after he has agreed to compensation and joined the company. If he joins and never completes a single task he is assigned, then yes the founders were 1000x more valuable. If…
Is the valuation of FB, Twitter reasonable or is there a lot of money moving in based on self-fulfilling speculation that this is "the next big thing"?
If your perception of offshoring is "lets hire developers in country X and save 40% because developers make 40% less there." Then the answer is NO. Even if you can find the perfect employees that will do great work for…
I think you misunderstand 'hypothesis'
If you can decode a way to 'beat the market' that means once you start beating the market someone else is loosing. They will adjust their trading techniques and your "algorithms" are now wrong
Attitudes like this are why I did CompE instead of CS. Yes you do learn OO in early CS classes, however you can use procedural programming in the real world to get excellent results. It is "bad code", but a lot of…
If the Stock goes down after an IPO, GS will wash their hands and blame FB management. If the stock goes up after the IPO, GS will take credit for "providing liquidity that was instrumental to FBs success"
Facebook is very similar to vmware. I expect it would follow a similar path in stock price. Currently vmware is trading at 140 p/e ratio. People are afraid to miss the next Google, Microsoft, etc.. SO they are willing…
Returns on stocks do not compound. If you bought a stock at X and sold it at Y your gain/loss percentage is simply Y/X. There is no reason to use the Pert formula.
Is there going to be a time in the next 5 years where most people change their views about the [usefulness/profitability] of [investing/creating/buying] [housing/start-ups/restaurants]? If your answer is yes then there…
They are trying to sell magazines. If they did Assange a "cancel your subscription to terrorist magazine" campaign would be started by Fox News.
I hate to say it but I would use this if my peers were just my Facebook friends. not that I don't trust 1024 bit encryption, I just don't like my info on strangers boxes even thought it is encrypted
This sounds great until the spammers get involved.
I wonder if it would be called innovation if we called these 'Products' what they really are. CDO='insurance on loans', Synthetic CDOS = 'making bets on other people's loans' When Las Vegas casinos come up with new ways…
To get rid of the Fake Work, we would have to be honest about our current work. but upper management doesn't want honesty. They want to see consistent numbers always increasing. If you have 3 great quarters then 1 bad…
In my experience these steps have helped me get a higher salary. 1. Say your current salary is 20% higher than it actually is when interviewing. 2. Once you get a job offer say you are very interested in the position…
I know a consultant who leaves his dirty underwear at the top of his suitcase so when whey randomly search his bag, they quickly close it back up and send him on his way. The same thing can be accomplished with the body…
When some congressman's 14 year old grandchild gets felt up by a perv things would change very fast
