CLEARLY, Robinhood knows about the infinite leverage bug, they have the capital, resources and engineers to fix it in a day if they want.

Why are they not doing it? Are they stupid or what? Let's think about it for a second.

There are two possible outcomes here:

Let's say you do some leverage, and then use that leverage to lose 100k+, they can eat the loss briefly, and then they use collection agents to collect YOUR money. Robinhood will recoup the 100k$

You use the same leverage to gain 100k+, then, when you go to cash out to your bank, their audit team blocks the payment, saying that you "Violated the Terms of Service", by using a bug to make that amount of money. Thus, robinhood pockets 100k$. You can't sue them to get that money back, because you violated their TOS.

If I was Robinhood CEO, that's what I would do, a 100% legal, safe way to get rich quickly.

Prove me wrong.

It has the same chance (or maybe higher) to be around in the next 50 years, than the the one in the list you provided. Also check AWS S3 out, it all depends on your use case (eg., do you need to access said files on a regular basis?(S3) or you just want to store them and never access them in the next years (Glacier) ?

As a Sicilian engineer working abroad, I always admired Salvatore. I exactly know and perfectly understand what is like to be successful in the comfort of Sicily, I hope someday to be as successful as him and able to come back to my beloved Sicily.

Italian here as well, graduated few months ago from a MsC., I feel your pain. Was for a full year in USA for an internship, I can say that it has changed my life, and my view on work.

I refused hundreds of Job offers from Italy (even with a decent salary), to chase something abroad. Now I am happily working at one of the top tech companies, in Dublin.

I had a hard time at university. The italian university are broken, seriously, They focus on a lot of theory and zero to no practice.

My personal advice is, to believe in yourself, develop yourself, study new technologies and skills required by the market, find your perfect 'career' path. You won't find hard finding a really good job in Europe or USA if you have the right skills.

P.S. don't accept ANY of the Italian initial offers, look outside, practice with spoken English and send Resumè's abroad (Don't be scared about the big companies, they need you more than everybody else, and they are hiring like crazy.)

Don't start working in Italy in a typical "consultancy" job, or you will be stuck forever with a low-wage low-experience job.

seems pretty cool, one nice feature could be the login (with facebook maybe?), and the possibility to save favorite songs (grooveshark style)
