Bitwise operations don't really make sense on floating point data, especially not in javascript. Based on a quick one minute test it appears that javascript just uses the integer part of the number if you try bitwise operations (e.g. 2.6 & 6.2 == 2)
Sorry, didn't mean to imply that you thought that, you did not misrepresent your thoughts: it was my post that was confusing. Nonetheless you do present starting a start-up as a serious option to consider for people who want to work at Google.
Talk about a Hacker News bubble. Are you really suggesting that if you want to work at Google you should start your own start-up? This seems ridiculous to me (I agree with the rest of the post though)
Awesome, thanks. I'm sorry for not having all my facts straight before posting.
Edit: don't jump to conclusions (original post was about being unhappy for paying $17 for the appsumo deal)
