How do you probe for these skills? Are there any questions that help you to identify them?

This is exactly what I have been looking for, few questions

- why does it need login? - what does it do with my data? - does the data live on phone or on your servers? - is it possible to export all the data somewhere?

I recently switched to FastMail.com from google. They have email, calendar and contacts syncing and works really well.

Being liberal doesn't mean that you block everything that the other side is doing. It's also about being open and accepting to others and their views. Shopify did the right thing here.

While this sounds like a good idea and will probably do well, it also centralizes more critical information and access to one for-profit company and product.

I really wish that we as a community would spend more effort towards better, decentralized systems.

If anyone has a good background, what exactly does Joyent have that is so valuable?

It seems that NodeJS has moved out of Joyent. They have hosted container support that seems to run on solaris, which seems interesting, but a bit too much of buzz-wordy from their website.

I am not very familiar with this, so will be great if someone can explain a little bit. I read the comments around orchestration, but am more interested in Joyent's value proposition.

I've been an AMEX user since 2002. I have a MasterCard also, and use it where AMEX is not accepted. However, I prefer using AMEX because:

1. It has a rock solid dispute system. I've disputed charges where the merchant didn't deliver on promise and AMEX took really good care of it. Same thing with a Visa card didn't go very well. You can do everything off the AMEX website and over email. With others, you have to call them and deal with lousy customer support.

2. They have a really good website and overall user experience. Its a pleasure to go to the website to see the charges, or to get a well laid out annual spending report. Their mobile app is also the best as compared to others.

3. They have stellar customer service. I rarely need to call them, but when I do, the wait times are in seconds.

4. They support mobile payments - Its the first one to be on Samsung Pay and I happen to have a Note 5.

FWIW, I just have the "American Express Blue Cashback" card, which no annual fees.

I agree with the sentiment, but how's he going to pay the bills for rent, school, car, etc? A lot of people work on jobs they don't like to pay bills. Is he not going to have a place to stay? May be his girlfriend has enough income that he can pursue hobbies while she works A 'proper' job? There is a minimum you need to make to live a comfortable life and not rely on government to help ends meet.

Is this legal to use for commercial purposes? If I create an app and put it on the app store for sale, is it allowed?

Beats headphones have very heavy Bass, a little bit overpowered Treble, and low Mids. This is basically what you get if you try to make a cheap headphones and add a lot of bass on it. This makes them fun for HipHop but sucks for everything else, specially anything with vocals.

They are, however, pretty good looking (imho), sturdy and extremely comfortable. They have also become (amongst non-geeks) the go-to headphones if you want something good as they don't have time to research the differences between HD598 and HD650.

If you buy a good pair of headphones that are balanced (eg. Sennheiser HD598), you can use a equalizer on your computer to make them sound just like Beats.

Basically, you can make Sennheisers sound like Beats, but you can't make Beats sound like Senheisers.
