    I agree, also the price is to high. $49.9k for a range of 160 miles? 5h+ for full charge? With the super charger it still takes 30 min for 160 miles charge, but then you have to bu…

    It disgusts me tremendously that a known name gets this special treatment, in my eyes it only proves how corrupt Google are becoming. If they would have treated Jef Poskanzer exact…

    I don't know what I expected really, but something more than an empty CSS file, maybe my expectations were totally off or maybe this wasn't very impressing. Although I could see th…

    Yes I understand the argument put forward in the article, but I was curious about the steps Megaupload took to try to conform with US law. All of this is crazy, and the point in th…

    I agree that Unit testing is a power full tool. But tools are just tools, and they can be misused. I see this sometimes at companies where they "make" their developers write unit t…

    After not one but two of my acquaintances have been detained and deported at the airport on trips to the US I can't really see myself ever daring to go there. Both are Muslim, they…

    What kind of DMCA system did Megaupload provide? And what kind of DMCA system is required by law?

    Agreed. That a start up recruitment site isn't generating the numbers the founders dreamed about is more probably an indicator of a poor business model, poor exposure or in this ca…

    Most workers don't care about what the employer actually pays, most workers just take into account what is stated on their pay check. Most Swedes, when talking about wage, mention …

    I think €800 for 8 days of work is ok good money for truck driving work and not so far from what truck drivers make for instance in Sweden. And I agree with all of your other point…

    Sure, we all pay for it somehow, I pay for all of my health care through my taxes, you pay half through your taxes and half out of pocket if i interpret you correctly? But on gener…

    I used this link http://www.gehalt-tipps.de/Gehaltsvergleich/Gehalt/Lkw-Fahre... provided by thomasz. Then I took the average from all those reported wages which was €2,109.36/mont…

    For many European countries health insurance and pension plans are payed for by taxes, as for Germany specifically I don't know, but I know they have very cheap health care.

    I see it like this, if you are using paid vacation days for this, then you are in a way on your current employers payroll, I think it is a bit dishonest to the current employer who…

    And with all due respect to you, you seem to not be considering the employee's point of view at all. An employee exchanges his time for money. It is not fair to assume that because…

    The whole article is very poorly written, typical Tech Crunch garbage. Even if Ibrahim Boakye is everything that he is portrayed to be in the article there is no way he could just …

    I agree, I go to hacker news for news and tech related true stories. I don't mind fiction, but I don't like to be "tricked" into reading it.
