    This is an excellent idea.

    There's no way that affiliate links can pay the bills for publishers; numbers don't ad up (otherwise everyone would do it, and no one does -- well, actually, there's extremely limi…

    I love this, but I worry about longevity -- if we convert all our code snippets to this, and then this dies, all the older blog posts become useless. You'd be surprised how many re…

    And that's the problem -- the CEO wasted a ton of time and resources trying to create a Spotify competitor that just burned resources.

    The site as it stands doesn't, as looking at the site currently has plenty of jobs that requires passing a criminal background check. It appears this site is more idea than executi…

    In the US the bank sends a notary free of charge with all your paperwork to sign. What a pain that you don't get this service!

    I'm sorry but I call bullsh*t on a lot of aspects on this story. I think this may have been true 5-10 years ago, but not now, not the way the Web works now. Everyone ignores those …

    You can't just file on behalf of someone else; copyright doesn't work that way. If you own copyright, you can sue. If you don't, you can't. If Zillow doesn't own the images, this i…

    So much in here is interesting (and right), but the best part I think comes at the end: Zillow doesn't own the images. So whether or not you there's a legal argument for fair use, …

    I'm thinking I'm going to listen to the many, many outside experts, plus what I see myself reported by other insiders, vs. one anonymous insider I run across on a site who worked f…

    Thank you for laying it out so well. I am a female executive and I am so sick of everyone saying that she's only getting criticized because she's female. So what, we can't get crit…

    Did you watch the decisions she made as they came down? It was bad call after bad call after bad call. Pretty much no one thinks she did even a mediocre job.
