Well ofcourse there ARE benefits to them, but I would just like to see you present it to them as awesomely as you presented to us devs

Btw, Wouldn't a good anti-recruiter mechanism be that you only allow employer accounts when you verify that the user represents an actual company etc?

I understand that this is your MVP and you are simply gauging the developer interest at the moment, but I would love to see what you are pitching to the employers. No, this is not about me not trusting you, I am just curious why would the other side use this (or how you will convince them to use it). Since you are building a marketplace, I would like to see how you are attracting both ends of the transaction

I remember once the screen in front of me crashed and clearly booted up some flavour of linux. (it even displayed the penguin!) Oh and i think it did end up on a console... though there were no USB ports visible at the time

Totally viable. Riot Games is pulling it off with League of Legends. Exact same case: money is just for skins etc. All the money in the world won't give you any unfair advantage. Oh and yes, HUGE competitive scene.

well yes, but they pieces aren't just bricks now. They have all sorts of special shape pieces, not to mention the Lego character accessories like flippers, swords, mugs etc etc.

Identifying different behavior in genders doesn't exactly make him sexist. Not in the bad sense anyway. Personally i think the notion that both genders behave identically (on average) is flawed.

Wo, the evidence truly is compelling. Even if Nick isn't Satoshi "Himself". he's at least one of the main collaborators. I mean if you were creating something complex and advanced like bitcoin, wouldn't you seek out the world's leading expert on the topic to help you with it (assuming you have the resources to do so)

I don't really think working in the industry makes you a generalist. If you have been working on the same product for a couple of years, your experience is limited mostly to that field, that technology, that problem etc. Of course, the benefit of not being in a PhD program is that you are free to hop around and work on a different thing every year.
