From what I was told employees did well but not anywhere nearly as well as some of the numbers that had been initially tossed around (e.g. In regards to the contest winner that got…

The company's financial fundamentals are terrible. The only thing holding the value up is fluff and hot air. If people get less excited by that the price goes way down and that's w…

Um, I think there's a difference between "hey we keep running out of coffee... we need a better coffee system" and "I think we have an abusive work environment."

Mostly a result of regulations that make it difficult for companies to get rid of people (either because they're not good or the company needs to shed staff). I've seen this sort o…

Twitter probably gets more free PR (with the news about famous people tweeting) than just about any tech company out there. It's sort of found its niche as a nano-blogging platform…

This. I am endlessly frustrated with display manufacturers think that I want to do all sorts of "smart" stuff with my display. No. I want it to display a nice image for the stuff I…

This seems like technology in search of a problem, and they've chosen a problem that already has a solution--just ask. God forbid we speak to each other.

I'm quite a techno geek but when it comes to notes I've never given up good old paper and pen.

Neat project.

No, they are profitable. In fact AWS is wildly profitable.

Perhaps, but we are still a long way off from fully self driving cars actually giving rides to replace taxis at scale. It's not clear how Uber gets from here to there without conti…

The very fact that "preparing for 8 months for a Google interview" is a thing highlights all the things that have gone wrong at Google and their widely panned bad recruitment pract…

"Record rates" just means "more than before" but it can be, and likely is, still just a small number that's mostly noise in the data so far as Apple is concerned.

There's no question Google no longer attracts the best of the best talent. Hopefully that's not news to the folks at Google.

Very good points and picked up on some accurate stereotypes that often appear in business.

This comes across as sour grapes from Slack. Also, if you want to talk about "open solutions" then make your own solution open.
