Workers can become CEOs too? If it's just CEO hatred culture, then the job creators will move.
Looks cool! :)
Does anyone know why the left vs right hand behaves the way it does at the end of the video? Left as an exercise for us?
I feel like these people have no clue what they are investing in. Is it just me? :)

My best guess would be a bunch of friends in a crypto lab cooked it up. It's not that there were no leaks. There were reviews done in the cryptography mailing list and changes were made. Just that they happened publicly online. The first idea was proposed in 2008, while the client was first launched in 2009.

It seems like a FB cookie bug, hard to figure out. Try incognito.

Numbers about hulu accelerating revenue for the movie industry and actually combating the free pirated ones with a better service might have been a good counter-point followup.

likealittle.com suffered with them too. They are pretty darn evil, they ask for a ransom to let you move your site.

Agree with Ted. I've heard so many horror stories from people who thought this way in the beginning. Yishan Wong, would give you good stories about, how zuck tried the contracting route when Accel funded them and very soon pressed the hard revert button.

Jessica - I'm a YC founder too, and most people have strong opinions on this. (http://bit.ly/9uDFfe); Maybe, you should ask pg, what he thinks.

I've just recently spoken with my friends, and I know for a fact that it atleast takes a month from point of checkin to review/test/stage/production. If you disagree, I think what you are talking about, is probably an exception and not the norm.

Being secretive about release cycles is pointless stealth.

Got it :)

I still know for a fact that, it takes at-least a month on average, for a search change list to reach production. Would you disagree Matt?

Re:Birth and Death of Microsoft Bing on Friday April 08, 2011 @02:16PM (#2425004)
Matt, How long would you estimate, for a search changelist to hit the production at Google? I've got friends working there. Prepare to be surprised.

I'm the author of this post and by no means I expected this to be on the top of HN today. It was a surprise. I din't do any good editing on this, since it was my personal blog and I had sent to Michael Arrington, who wanted to edit/publish it. For some reason, he backed out at the last moment and it din't make it to TC. Welcome to the world of citizen journalism.

Sorry about the typos/errors. I'm looking into this now :)
