alexsherrick | 15 years ago | on: Why Stack Overflow Sucks and Participating There is Impossible

A lot of people are dogging acconrad, but I have to agree with him. I was having a problem with rails, and I found the answer on stackoverflow. The right answer had no upvotes, so I figured I would upvote it; this way the original "asker" would know it is the right answer. However, it said I didn't have enough rep to upvote... I'm sure he'll figure it out but this would save him from checking the other "solutions".

This article is practically pointless; congratulations on parroting Peter Thiel on this matter.

To be honest, my college experience was pretty easy for me, but I did learn something that I would have never learned by starting a business. That is communication. College is the best place to learn about yourself and become comfortable with talking in social settings.

Also, through college, I met some of the smartest people I know, and I hope that in the future we can build a business. Without school, I would have never had the opportunity to engage with such minds.

I really don't understand why everyone thinks Craigslist will have a problem with this. They do not profit off of Housing/Sublet submissions. This will only increase traffic to their site, and some users that aren't too familiar with Craigs will possibly use the site for something Craigslist does make money (e.g. jobs).
