Seems pretty reasonable to me.

If it’s a rough wireframe it can be just that, rough.

If it’s a pixel perfect mockup then it’s a contract for final product IMO.

Of course whether there are that many sets of eyes on it depends how big a co you’re working for!

Firstly they're based in London.

(a) is not (entirely) correct. There are literally hundreds of epidemiologists, doctors, NLP engineers, etc that have worked on the models. They are not 20 questions. (I'm definitely not saying its perfect!)

(b) is false. Babylon get paid as any other GP practice does with a fee per patient (on the NHS side). Digital & phone first is GREAT. I've had appointments 7 minutes after opening the app before.

(d) is also not correct, it depends which of their services you use. GP @ Hand is pretty explicit about that being the case - it's the entire value proposition.

If you use the private service (as I do) then you keep your GP (I spoke to mine this morning).

(e) I'm not really sure how this makes it more likely they would have a data leak?

You almost couldn't have got any more of what you said wrong - why the hate?

I actually took out income protection insurance for just this reason. I'm a contractor and so being able to work is very important. My policy pays out after 13 weeks of incapacitation.

Quincy - just out on Netflix about Quincy Jones. What a fascinating life he's had. Watched it with a smile on my face the whole time.

As mentioned above. We're making money doing it.

I've long wondered why these guys are out there pitching their courses, right now I just believe its a) because they see everyone else doing it b) its easy money but really c) because their businesses are just on auto-pilot.

A lot of these guys have VA's who do a lot of the heavy lifting. I just think they're getting bored and don't want to be forgotten on the conference circuit.

Its no walk in the park, but we do pretty well with it. The thing I always say to people about dropshipping is you're either making no money or lots of money.

Finding a "winning" product is the hard part (0 revenue at this point), now imagine that product has a margin of $10 (after acquisition cost), all you have to do is find just 100 people to buy it to be making $1000 a day. Think about that for a moment, only 100 people from the entirety of Facebook or Instagram to be making $1000 a day profit.

We're small fry compared to some of the guys out there, there are people doing 6 figures a day. Some mid 6 figures.

True - but my god the experiences aren't even in the same league and for me that matters. WeWork is worlds apart.

alternatively emailhunter.co is great at this, they also have a Chrome extension you can just click when you're on a target domain

Contracted for a bit. When I had enough cash in the bank after a month or two I took a few months off and did some travel.

I couldn't even bear the thought of another startup (while it was always a long term goal) until I took a break. Now I'm back in the grind.

Shit happens unfortunately, its how you pick yourself up and dust yourself up that separates us. Best of luck.

I'm actually looking for a biz dev/sales type person who is familiar with the digital ad sales space/publishing space.

Location doesn't matter right now except would be great if you were in a (relevant) major city. I'm in Bali right now, Malaysia & Singapore next week, Tokyo for the rest of July.

Product is there, currently talking to people about it.

Best to get me on [email protected] (Intentional obfuscation)

Yeah, a lot of these places are still old school. They might have a DVD recorder in the back office that rewrites after x hours/days. So its not "we mandate them to buy the hardware and that we have access to at all times". Obviously places can do that with firms like ADT, just saying it isn't a clear cut government ploy.

Whose to say that one of the (many) reasons it currently isn't successful is that by feeling disconnected from friends and family it further makes them feel separate from society?

Used one travelling Xmas 2013, its pretty good value theres no denying that. I did have some problems with some binaries, I'm sure someone else could better explain it but I think it was something to do with the processor it runs on, mySQL (I think it was) was a nuisance to get up and running because of it. Must have worked, though, because I worked on it for a month or so.

Obviously it doesn't compare to something like a Macbook Air - which I have with me this time round.

I actually respected the way they did that.

They're trying to make some very serious criticisms without detracting too much from the fact that Internet.org actually got off their arses to do something about the digital divide.

I think its fair. They're trying to give some degree of credit where its due, as opposed to an all out attack. Its hard for me personally to agree with an all out attack piece when I'm conscious of the seemingly good intentions of the project (conspiracies aside).

Whoah. Uncalled for dude. This is a tech site you have to remember, he's a CEO of a tech site/husband to SS/seems like he was a big figure in the community.

I'm sure every single one of us cares that people died yesterday. Don't want to get into a big debate, jus sayin. #deepbreaths
