Netflix was originally just a DVD distribution company. They made a transition well...

How does the re-encryption work? Does the data get de-crypted then re-encrypted, or is it always double encrypted? Maybe I'm not understanding the "mutating" crypto part. I think it would help me if you explained that part more.

I was thinking of it as a play on the word "free" in french before the word Stock...

    Gratis - Free as in Beer
    Libre - Free as in Speech

Next up, digital arrows next to headlines is capable of decision-making (removing physicality).

I'm sorry but this sounds more like a way of measurements and calculations than actual decision-making, as that's been decided by the maker or user of the object.

Okay, seriously, who's with me to pitch the first Hackathon Reality show based on MasterChef and The Voice that features 48-hours of drama, suspense, beautiful graphics and working app at the end?

I would welcome the challenge in what rating is what. Because I know they are highly subjective. This is not an adversarial question, it's mainly used as an indicator to gauge where to direct the interview.

I like to interview people across a range of subjects (as I have not had the chance to hire a pure specialist). So knowing what they feel confident in answering will help me tailor the questions to what their perceived strengths are.

So I think it gives me a feel of your confidence level in a language. If you flipped through a "Teach yourself C++ in 24 hours" book once, then rate yourself a 10 on a scale from one to 10. Then not answering basic C++ questions will raise red flags.

If they answer a "1" on something. (And I re-assure them that answering 1 is perfectly ok). Then I can feel a lot more comfortable giving them more hints, or a lot more supporting detail in a question that they have indicated they are not very strong in.

I feel like I follow this template as well. Except, I like to add a small self assessment at the beginning of the interview. Like:

      Q: On a scale from 1 to 10 (1 being low) how do you rate yourself on "Programming Language Du Jour"?

Then I can see if their self assessment is inline with mine. Which can help in reviewing the resume.

I also like to ask for them to choose a project in the past to talk about, because then it's easy to see what they are passionate about. Or easily tell if they are choosing to talk about something because they think, you think, it's cool.

I think voice with a screen is interesting, but voice alone can be difficult. What is the last voice controlled IVR (phone system) that was awesome to interact with. I think it takes a combination of voice and something can can be confirmed with another "button", or something you can touch or push to confirm or cancel what you've "asked" it to do.

I think it can augment things well, but not be the prime time star.

How does this even work? Meaning if I live in WY, but I bank at "Small Union Bank of Delaware" Does that mean I'm using anything with in the realm of the Wyoming Division of Banking? Would just using an ATM put me under their jurisdiction? Because if I by something from Amazon, the transaction is basically from my bank in DE to WA if there are no Physical Amazon locations in WY. Correct?

Wouldn't a decentralized web interface be webmail (i.e. Gmail)? Then along the Gmail theme, a plug in could make things look much like a static website. Where "conversation view" becomes a "repository view".

Agreed that the argument is a bit weak, but we would still end up with a major centralized repository for a decentralized protocol. And the changes to make Gitlab more like the proposal would probably be more work than just making the proposal a new project.

Can't good survey question design, mitigate this? Haven't psychologists and researchers been doing this for decades and solved the problem of asking verb questions properly?

Because at the end of the day you have to ask what people want, right?
