I hate both sides of the aisle here. For fuck sake, I am mentally burnt out by these topics.

I think you do not hate corporations just for the sake of it. There is money in the outrage business. Every movement can be sabotaged by people who have their own self interest t the forefront. It is easy to hide bad behavior under emotional issues.

How did you get your first 100 customers ?

LessPhone ?

How long did it take you to develop the app ?

I notice some bot/troll activity in the discussions. Mostly new accounts

You really improve your persuasion skills.

Sadly, it seems like the HN crowd won't upvote a paper that's the CS equivalent of breaking the speed of light:

Comments like this will turn people off the rest of your post.

How long did the courses take you to complete ?

Is there Teacher student interaction in the course ? How is it different from any regular MOOC ? Assignment/Projects ?

Yes, you completely misinterpreted the who argument and twisted it to suit your view point. I think it would have been more dignified if you said you disagreed with the article. Some heights of passive aggressiveness in your comment

I am not sure what you call this style of arguments ? You are deviating from my point and intention.

Lets take GPA for example. Do you think 2 people getting a GPA of 3.0 are of the exact same knowledge level ? Is it possible that one has the equivalent score of 3.13 and the other has 2.87 and that they were both normalized to 3 ? Same thing with the jobs. Maybe you see this at your job too. There are going to be people more skilled at what you do and people less skilled at what you do but still pulling the same salary. The salary you earn is an approximate estimate of your skill measure but not an measure of your exact skill.

Capability to do work does not mean you have the same qualifications to raise your level and become the cream of the crop...ie raises or promotions.

You are the one digging the wrong rabbit hole here.

publish-subscribe module

What part of application is that for ?

My paycheck is 18% less than my less qualified male colleagues.

I stopped reading after this line. Not because it cannot be true but because it reeks of agenda and made me doubt her credibility.

What about machine learning is relevant to this textbook ?

Read this article.

The examples you are comparing are not similar at all.

Musk should be collecting money for the situation to be similar.

being preternaturally competent as a fundraiser.

Why are you trying put a positive spin on this whole mess like a PR agency ? What would you describe Madoff as in that case ? A man of great persuasive ability ?

You like cabbages?

I think the analogy is wrong...

Maybe making an oscar winning movie with great CGI on $1000 is more appropriate

Do you have any suggested good reads about the topics ?

Link I found of the lecture

Cannot see it now. Can you post the text ?

How exactly did learning about compilers help you ? What applications do you build ?

I think there is whole chunk of story missing.. Some context/information is missing from her allegations. The wife's behavior doesn't make sense.

Too many red flags in Julie's version. But I will wait for the complete story.

Cannot see any picture there

Reminds me of the kid in China that was run over by two trucks and no one cared

Terrorists cannot deploy bomb blasts using chewing gums

As a recent member(11 months), I can clearly see that shift in the kind of articles that gets posted(or upvoted to the top) on HN over the last few months. A bit too much NSA, Snowden and Bitcoin these days. Not sure what the right word for it is but "tech activism" ? Not necessarily bad but usually not something I visit HN for. The telegram thing..that is more like it

Bitcoin news...

I have no interest in Bitcoins. Is someone gaming HN ?

Ayn Rand comes to mind

At what point did you start charging for it ?
