Well, to keep it in the analogy, this is what the world without nn sounds like - "I bought a economy ticket but I am reaching lot late than the one who bought a coach ticket." It's not that I am getting a tight seat or shitty service. I am reaching late to my destination. That means eventually everyone would have to pay more depending on the whim of the carrier.
How do you deal with payscale?? Do you decide just some market rate or do you decide how much worth is their work? Doesn't it complicate when you have a business partner?
Well, Ideally I wouldn't want to keep opening and closing the slide up and down. So this is simpler but not nearly that useful. Apple strives to be secure and easy to use. That's why the top dollar for apple products.
Would you think we can apply this same argument when it happens to be an american wedding?? Hell no. drones or no drones, we will definitely have some policy changes and definitely some heads will roll.
No, these choices are not really competitors for each other. I don't mind having only 2 choices if they were just comcast and optimum or at&t and verizon. I think you are confusing between choices and competitors. dslextreme is a competitor to verizon and thats what will keep verizon delivering better service. But if verizon and optimum are the only choices (with prices fixed) , none will work to make it better for the consumer. And lack of competition is the reason why these companies are jacking up prices.
"If you have cable companies, landline broadband, wifi, and other broadband providers fighting for your service, this is a much less big deal. It's stupid scare mongering"
I live in a suburban area. Not too far from metropolitan. and close to (5miles) to a major ivy league university. Lets see my options:
verizon dsl (3mbs to 6mbs) - 54$
optimum - (15mbs but I barely get 1mbps at peak) 54$ soon to be 60$
wifi - sprint (4g/3g speeds, can say I get around 1 to 2 mbps)- 54$ for 4GB.
dslextreme (3mbs) for 24.99$
For me the best value for my money is dslextreme. If that option is taken away, then I don't really have much chioce because very one else is colluded and price is fixed in some private inter company meetings.
So you are the one without any real facts just discrediting the real issues the article points out.
that's because you have competition. Most of the places have no chioce. They are either stuck with optimum or verizon dsl. So you are in a minority. Also, clifton, nj is a rich neighborhood, thats why probably you have both fios and optimum.
I think this is taking an easy way out. If every one stops pirating and there is no piracy, raii/mpaa will make it expensive enough that poorer people will not be able to afford it or would be left out. Look at the isps and cable companies where there is no alternative(atleast in US) and they squeeze as much as they can out of the user giving as little as possible. In a way piracy is kind of a competition for media companies to make shows available for a reasonable price.
You can do this by filing H1B through a consulting company and start working for the startup as a contractor through the consulting company. One catch is that consulting company has to pay a minimum h1B salary for you which shouldn't be a problem if you do get into the accelerator. If you need help for filing H1B, let me know through email. Good luck.
If everybody follows this advice, then the isp has to/will be increasing the price of the faster connection. And this is especially true in US, since there is virtually no real competition for isp.
Worrying about insurance companies being broke and not offering insurance is absurd. If they can't make the business model work, I am sure someone smarter will figure out a way to make the model work. That might not be you and me and the middle manager business suits at insurance company but someone will. But holding/banning the ability to know the truth about ourselves just to save some insurance business model is not right.
Somehow it seems pretty costly...Wouldn't it be cheaper for me to just run it on my virtual instance that's hosting the app and probably just back it up with S3.
One of many reasons is MySql being bought by Oracle and name change/lost of community backing etc...along with some missing advanced technical features....
"vehemently battle"?? I am pretty sure lobblying will win any time of the day over "vehemently battling" citizens. Another lobby group from amazon or netflix can only push it the other way.
I also like this idea but it just seems difficult to get the business started and making enough money to compensate yourself. Just to be sure, I don't mean working from home for elance comes under lifestyle business.
This is such a rude comment. This comment is basically like putting salt on the injury. You are talking about coding when these people don't actually have a place to stay and/or good food to eat. You have spoken like a true 'born with a silver spoon and never knew what poverty really is like' guy.
