I think you should even if you don't get hired. Our company keeps the score cards for 6 months and anyone interviewing can request to see them. No one ever does.

Are you currently experiencing any server issues? I'm stuck on the generating head screen for over 5min now...

The forbidden fruit tastes best, right.

My theory is that like everything this requires a balance and gradual introduction. Start early, let kids make mistakes, punish them for said mistakes, let them learn lessons.

Enforcing super strict rules has never helped anyone I think. 1h a day is quite strict in my opinion especially if consumed in multiple sessions. If I had just started doing something and it took me 15min to get fully absorbed and in 15min I had to call it quits I'd be pretty angry myself to be honest.

I can make an analogy with access to sweets here. Our boy aged 6 now has had unrestricted access to a cupboard full of variety of sweets since he was 3. And believe me he loves sweets! Technically he can go and take as many sweets as many times as he wants to and no one would probably understand. But we've said it is 2 sweets a day, reasonable quantities. This was strictly enforced early on and now we can 100% trust him to pick whatever he wants when he wants. Because he knows when is a good time and what is a good amount. He'll even come home from school some days and say he'll only eat one sweet today as they've had chocolate cake for pudding at school.

So cut your kids some slack and let them learn themselves rather than locking everything behind locks - physical or digital.

I’ve experienced the same with Snapchat and their geofencing ads. I geofence a perimeter around a venue where we run an event and run a branded filter. We have a team of 5 in the venue during the hours the ads run. None of them was able to see the filter come up. Snapchat on the other end shows hundreds of impressions and tens of uses. Surely a fraud.

Wouldn't they be afraid that if the rules are relaxed the single cases would spiral up and start it all over again?

A dip implies a bottom exists. Right now it's just a steep slope with no bottom in sight.

Pleasure. I feel sorry about Bill and Melinda because the expectations of them are super high as you just proved yourself. Instead of laying on the beach of a private island they travel around the world meeting people having what-not ilnesses. For any sane person this must be a taxing experience. They need to wind down from time to time. I would have taken a gap year a decade ago. What they do is admirable. And if he wants to buy a billion $ coffee mug he should - it's well earned after all.

+1. When I was young and naive I used to praise Kiyosaki. Later experience taught me he's just a charlatan getting rich by teaching others how to get rich.

I must be missing something. The product looks a like a cloud accounting software.

Why does this not new concept need validation?

More interesting is that "impeach" came runner up...

This. I've tried using FF for work as well but given I work a lot with Google web properties, Firefox is just a drag there. Don't know if Google's deliberately slowing it down or what but there's a very solid performance difference there.

I don't get this. Small personal website are not going to pay money. Business websites in general will not leave GA and not because of the analytical aspect but because of the integrations. Businesses use Google Ads, GA ties in closely with Ads. Then you connect to Data Studio for your dashboards. And deploy through GTM. It's a whole eco system that's hard to replace by a single piece of software. As much as I'd love to stick it to Google as a person responsible for a business site I can't afford it.

I wonder who would stand up and say how much tax payers money were wasted here? Someone should, right? At least for Pornxit a decision was made. Brexit to follow...

Update: spelling

I wonder if someone can build something similar to https://haveibeenpwned.com/ to preserve those pages and create a centralised archive?! Otherwise murderers and fraudsters get a clear start

I cannot believe someone gets paid to study what is common knowledge that kids as young as 8 9 years of age know of. When they want to skip school they don't say I don't feel like it, they say they are poorly.

Is it more official now as Cambridge said it? How is this helpful in any way towards the common good?

Yeah but it locks you in. Another example of how the hysteria around climate change is exploited by companies for profit. Once you buy Tide washing liquid in a returnable container there's a higher cost barrier switching to another brand. Unless they standardize the packaging this is a pure profit move.

On a broader note I often wonder if all the talk about climate change and plastics is not fueled by corporations ready to exploit it. I just cannot believe that a topic can suddenly become so big without an agenda behind it.

To;Dr: As with anything, balance is needed. Use your judgement wisely.

The actual Zuora sales deck was uploaded to SlideShare after the article was written in 2016.

Here it is https://www.slideshare.net/ryangum/zuora-sales-deck?qid=f249...

En example of why I love the HN community - there's something special in this story that is hard to explain and not everyone will understand. But people here seem to!

They say they are not changing the "things to do" pages as they for people close to booking. I actually think they are for people that have already booked - I have a trip to Geneva coming in 1 week, let's plan my days...

Also I feel that in the travel industry people have their favourite website where they ultimately go to purchase and TripAdvisor is just not one of those. Anyone I know of thinks of it as helpful travel advice, not a booking engine. People find hotels on Booking.com, look them up on TripAdvisor, book on Booking.com.
