I'm guessing it would be cheaper and/or more profitable to run their own ad network than it would be to pay for running ads.

Think about how they've turned expenses into profit in almost every other aspect of their business.

- Shipping their books? Ship their own + others and make a profit

- Hosting their website? Host their own + others and make a profit

- Advertising their products? Advertise their own + others and make a profit.

Not so sure about this. WWDC 2017 (last year) had all of these announcements: - New iMac Pro - New iPad Pro 10.5 - New HomePod - Updated iMac - Updated MacBook - Updated MacBook Pros

And that's why I pointed it out

It also effects more than just the version you're linking to

Broken on latest versions of Safari, FireFox, Edge, etc. as well

Starting to see complaints, questions, etc. on twitter about it too.

- still down for me

- downforeveryoneorjustme.com says down

- seeing new twitter posts still

guessing it's intermittent

I'm guessing a lot of posts about it all at once

Would love to know how this was made, if anybody knows

Interesting to read... Here's the original joint statement released by the Department of Homeland Security and the Office of the Director of National Intelligence: http://www.npr.org/sections/thetwo-way/2016/10/07/497093001/...

I agree that it's more productive to advise students to be wary than to express outrage at an institution. This should be read by all incoming college freshmen.

You made software to make peoples secrets more secure but you added tracking, making everything less secure? What were you thinking?

All it would take for all of your customer's privacy and security (mostly their security via obfuscation) to be compromised is for one person to gain access to your google login. If somebody does that, they are instantly gaining access to countless private URLs nobody would know about otherwise in a beautiful easy-to-use interface called Google Analytics.

And then you have "intentions" to do opt-OUT tracking?

You are currently demonstrating your decision making (when it comes to security) is very poor. You really need to think more about your users if you're going to be serious about this project.

As long as you reply in your 30 minute deadline, i dont see how you still can't do what he's doing. I have my phone on me all the time and if there's an emergency or some sort of window where i must reply, i hop on the phone or go back to the desk and get it done.

That said, my reply wasn't intended to be a blanket statement of all remote workers.

One example of where it doesn't work is at U-Haul. A lot of uhaul customer service is people sitting at home glued to their computers, waiting for calls. There is no 30 minute window there.

My point was that it's not as impossible as the comment author made it seem. A balance between "riding in the park" and "answering my client within 30 minutes" is possible here.

As somebody that remote works most of the time, I will stick my head out and agree that working side by side tends to be my most productive times with co-workers.

Working remotely is great for ones health. Co-working is best for synergy and communication.

It's all about the balance.

As an american who works just as he does, and have for roughly 10 years, this is simply not true.

Working down to the bone, "every second", will lead to serious burn out. Your mental health suffers, as do your relationships.

I won't make any assumptions about who you are or how you work, but I tend to see this mindset from new blood who wants to get the edge over others. I understand this mindset, as it's very productive - like a short sprint - but it's not sustainable.

If you want to last the whole race, you need to pace yourself.

Not everybody has to worry about future employers.

Not everybody builds things with mass appeal in mind.

Not everybody has to understand the reason for something.

Some things are done for ourselves and how we like them, regardless if it has some sort of use case.

For those of you wondering "why would/did Curse make a chat app"?

A: It's a niche chat app for gamers to use while gaming, in order to communicate as a team.

From my understanding, it was meant to be a low resource alternative to skype. It's hard to play games like League when skype is eating up your resources/bandwidth/etc.

If somebody tells you "you are not getting you're money back", I think that no longer makes it a scam. You know exactly what you are getting into at that point.

Your comment deserve a longer response, but i have to leave the office shortly.

My short reply is... I agree that staying within the app is a win. The overall mood seems to be "yes, one less app i have to use now..."

I don't keep apps I dont need or use, and a lot of people feel the same way. I dont want YET ANOTHER social networking app. This app feels like snapchat and IG merged, except in reality, IG just stole a lot of Snapchats thunder/users.

By customer, i meant users. By users, I mean the people who spend time on the app and are the reason there are advertisers and/or a business in the first place.

Regardless of what the post says to you, people have it and are already posting a LOT. Vogue already has anna wintour in multiple posts on their IG story. Brands already are posting. A lot of the vine/snapchat "stars" are already 20-30+ posts deep. I see fashion bloggers, tech writers, etc. A lot of people are already using it.
