    I think it's their first big test of a layoff? Am interested to see how this plays out. In any case, WoW has been stagnating for quite some time even before the merger. The devs ac…

    Pay for your work. An eye for an eye. Equivalent exchange. Justice for any crimes perpetuated. Such are some timeless principles that brings fairness. And to counter on Camus when …

    One thing you're missing out is their corporate strategy to treat their other products as some form of adspace.

    A lot of these no value, didn't ask, pro-linux comments are probably leftovers from linux software maintainer groups and it's passive aggressive culture. And we all know what kind …

    Someone should keep track of a public database of CEOs who cut workforce while making huge profits. Name, context, situation and all.

    There is a trend in online mobile game design, that the best interaction between players is through limited-option emotes and solo gameplay masqueraded as 'multiplayer'. That's say…

    It depends on the perspectives. Some people play to achieve things, to progress, not meander around doing things that they've done before and getting the same results. You blame ga…

    Sure I'd acknowledge the risks taken. Arguably though, there should be some degree of a known benchmark just so people don't get overly taken advantage of.

    But these are still numbers plucked from the air (or as you put it, from the 'future'). I want *tangible, material bases* to start from if any. Another far more sensible model I've…

    Add to that, if there exist individuals who have enough of the resource of highest utility, it can become a liability for society. One bad way is that they use it to suppress other…

    Is there some standard he/people use to come up with the initial company paper-stock worth? A 2m company I would imagine needs to have some tangible traction already.

    Agreed, what a disappointment of an essay, encouraging a growth at all costs mindset and pretending that this growth doesn't involve/encourage bad side effects. And a lot of these …

    Are you just throwing out buzzwords at this point? What has ranking have to do with the standard website? Or fraud detection/prevention? Clearly these are out of the scope of the s…

    To add on context, the experiment you're giving is called a *blind judging test*. Remove the branding and labels, and let judges sample the results and see if they can tell which i…
