Am I the only one who wants to mount a nerf gun on a squad of these and then play war in the back yard?

4. A brave new world is set in LONDON, UK. Not that many native Americans in that neighborhood.

We actually do live in a society where the super rich have nothing to do that live idly. Earth has never had as few people controlling as much money/power as we have at the moment.

(On the other hand, the poor are a lot "richer" nowadays as well)

I would guess that it's because of the Verizon deal. Skype probably had to promise to make it only work for them.

I'm a geek and I've always belonged to the late majority when it comes to new technology. Within my area of expertise (programming) I'm at the frontier, but outside of that area I see technology as something that should be useful.

Bought my first smart phone (an Android) two months ago, but have been using Linux as my sole OS for five years now.

And if I look at my nerd friends it seems to be the same thing. The nerds have the newest and coolest in a thin niche, and outside that niche they don't care.

Don't know. You do need 1500 signatures or so to run though.

I think that the code challenge was mostly aimed at students, where the time spent writing something semi cool is not just wasted time. Having been on the hiring side for software developers at Klarna I have seen too many people in interviews that can't "write a function that counts the number of words in a sentence, in any programming language". So having something that measures your competence pre-interview is good.

When I got hired by Klarna I never had to do any programming. I had actual code out there in the wild that I could point to.

Getting to the interview stage at Klarna is easy. Getting an actual job offer is harder.

(Btw. If you don't like IQ tests then don't look for a job at Klarna...)

When this goes into large scale production I'll be interested in buying one. The concept is really cool. I don't care so much about the "even in sunlight" part, but rather the low power consumption is the good part.

To clarify this further.

This is true if the party in question has ordered ballot papers from the central voting authority. This is (strangely enough) a different thing from being a runner in the election.

So "Donald Duck" and "DONALD DUCK" would count the same iff someone has ordered official ballot paper for Donald Duck party (or similar). They would (or at least should) count individually if not.

I'd still say you need to book at least 30 minutes. If your staff don't want/need more than 2 minutes, then fine. The important thing is telling them "this time slot I'm all yours".

I've had problems with my moderncv based CV. Some companies want the CV to be in DOC.

On the one hand I could just say that I don't want to work in such a company, but when it's the recruiter and not the company demanding it, I don't really know what to do.

(At the moment I'll just send them a link to one of the PDF to DOC sites that are all over internet.)

Standard release schedule for Erlang/OTP. Same thing with R13A, and so on backward (except that the A releases have not previously been available outside of Ericsson (and had the name P rather than A)).

The R14B release is the real release of R14. Will then be incremented with R14B-1 etc.

I would recommend Erlang developers to use the B releases in development, but wait for the B-1 release before upgrading production servers.

This is only a problem if you believe that there is a limit to opportunities. There's always another opportunity around the corner that you haven't seen yet. And sometimes you have to fail at the obvious ones to see what the correct one is.

How is this different from how it is in the west?

Work hard to pay off the house (or to save to buy a house), an economical crisis that doesn't seem to end no matter the company profits. Etc...

You stole my comment! :-)

Anyway, answer is here: http://www.journalsleep.org/ViewAbstract.aspx?pid=27894

And to save everyone from clicking on that link: "were followed-up for 14 years (men)", "mortality rate was 21% for men"

This is not true for all countries. In Sweden you get kicked out with no PhD if you haven't finished in eight years. And that is clock years. (You can get on or two extra years for childbirth and military service I seem to remember)

Since people have to be logged in to vote, there is a much easier solution:

Count votes from new users lower.

And count early votes from users often voting on articles posted by a particular person lower.

It can be refined quite a bit...

There is an easy solution to the AI calculation though.

Anything not proven visible counts as invisible. Done!

In principle I agree. On the other hand, if he has a positive cashflow from the property it doesn't really matter what its price on the open market is.

These are the billable hours. I would guess that the time spent finding good clients is about the same again. So make that $150/hour. Still good, but in the same range as a technical consultant with 5-10 years experience.

High taxes have a tendency to mean cheaper child care. In general countries with high taxes have subsidised child care.

I believe that high taxes would rather put a stop to the one-earner household since marginal effects on two incomes at X is usually a lot less than the tax on one income of 2X.

This post makes me wonder what question the author is posing. Yes, you want to take your startup to the next level. Do you want help? Do you just want to tell us? Do you want recommendations?

Sounds like some really successful apps. Add some ads or start charging, and you are set.

"Hello, Easy job for me". This thing is hilarious.

Thanks! This tool is such an easy thing, and still extremely useful. Will use it for my own domain searches in the future.

Agree fully. Also worth considering if this proof turns out to be correct, is that he will probably have employment contracts and speaker deals dwarfing that $1M quite soon.
