Everyone is trying to build a successful trading strategy. Honestly, a lot of my peers seem to be making the most from "insider trading" these days.
I'm a relatively late adopter (2009) but I really loved Smugmug from the start. As someone into both technology and photography, Smugmug was the perfect product! I remember really wanting to work for them as a college student - everything about the company was extremely motivating. It still is.
Is it time for people to fake their tweets and constantly post "interesting" articles to get interviews? That sounds absurd.
For instance, a person will make a seemingly "logical" argument and everyone will just keep adding their own "opinion" agreeing with this argument to be part of this mob. Later, even if this argument is proven wrong, you will get insulted, downvoted and threatened if you make any sort of counter-argument. I hate generalizing but my experience was that most people were unwilling to take back what they said.
I'm assuming these 1-hour blog posts do move their metrics in a meaningful way and the HN thing was just banter.
Also, the term "quality" is highly dependant on context. I wouldn't compare it to "The New Yorker," but rather other similar companies' blog posts.
Is it Apple's company size and culture that make leaks inevitable?
Then why does Facebook take the entire responsibility for "ruining" the country? What about Donald Trump himself and Trump supporters in the U.S?
I feel like Donald Trump's persona and his supporters having an influence in the country is way more complex issue than Facebook ad campaigns.
Maybe in the US, it can be solved on a city-by-city basis. For some other countries, I think it's a much more complex problem.
It'd be cool to see quantitative data on how much time this could save.
To Google, 100k is nothing and in good faith, they should definitely reward more, but when it ties into someone's KPI, it will be tough to get more. They'd have to work with PR to understand the tradeoffs, etc.
A $3000 mac would be lucky if the games even supported OSX.
I know the implication is negative in terms of privacy, but it has its benefits if it could actually solve problems and provide value to the majority.
The problem occurs when there's deception about its identity. There will be trust issues in the near future if things like this persist. Then again, would it even matter if some celebrity is a real person in the future?
If you've met her, you'll know she's extremely brilliant, but I don't think this situation is something that can be solved by a statement. I'm assuming a lot of actions will be taken first internally before she speaks publically.
I really hope they have a solid roadmap and wish them the best.
Jokes aside, SAT score is not a good indicator of "success" in terms of salary at least in my personal circle. Some of my friends who got perfect scores on their SATs are all at sub-standard jobs, getting paid significantly less than the average salary. Of course, this is purely based on personal anecdote but attending top-tier schools seem to have a stronger correlation.
