It should probably read corporate journalists are not journalists. To be one a journalist one must serve the truth but to remain employed by corporation means you have to accept some truths that aren't and reject others thar are.

The best is to remember this reporter and newspaper and trust them less.

Why the focus on oral? Ubiome had a great product that worked on fecal sample to determine what bacteria's are present in the intestines.

Do you see your company expanding into that area?

I wouldn't be surprised to learn Azure was paid (either money or developer time) and this is happening for other products. I would think twice before using Azure if I was concerned about my usage being shared.

Use the minimal amount of resources and scale up. If you need mostly random don't force cryptographic level random. It adds unnecessary processor cycles and reduces speed.

Is all of your content pulled via javascript? Could a server side language prerendering the content be part of your solution. You can still use javascript for everything else just not the content.

Conversation style is not for everyone.

A lot of people want a step by step guide with easy to understand rules and clear steps.

I read those types of guide books when I got started and many exist. When I tried to follow them in real life they missed so glossed over so many other problems or situations that can come up. The knowledge of local rules and past experiences and sound judgement was lacking. I found the best way to learn was from conversations in coffee shops / outside auctions from people who have been doing this for years.

This book tries to copy that style with a focus around specific topics that come up. Raw knowledge, warts and all.

Interesting point and in my case yes and all writing is attributed to the person who wrote it in print. And everyone got a book and a special private forum. In a way it was a community effort of mostly old timers who were there in the beginning.

I'm curious about your point of view. What is your take on these.

- If someone posts something in your forum. Can you legally repost in twitter saying.. so and so just posted?

- When you post in a public forum do you automatically assign the copyright as public domain by virtue of where you posted and who can see it?

- Facebook owns all of the content you post (pictures/posts/videos). Doesn't this apply to all/most sites with user generated content?

I have found the more work you put in for free the less they respect you and the less chance you have to get hired.

It's one way to bias the interview towards extroverts. Based in the percentage of extroverts to introverts developers they will probably end up with less technically able development and the amount of meetings will be higher than average and meetings will be filled with people who need to add in something so meeting length will increase.

Should have more people wanting to come into the office.
