Elon Musk.


Here.


This is a case where the founder has an American accent yet people did not understand what he tried to convey correctly. I think PG should have referred to founders' elocution, diction, communication skills, etc. instead of only their accents. As we've seen here one can have no foreign accent at all and you may still be misunderstood.


Why should anyone choose to use Apptimize over a free open-source alternative?


One of the biggest reasons is probably the reason behind using any software as a service rather than doing it yourself: you can concentrate on what you do best and not spend time managing things yourself. A couple of our users switched from using open source alternatives for that reason. We've put a lot of time into our infrastructure and decoupling things so we're very resilient against outages so you don't have to. We've also put a lot of time into making our library more robust and well tested than any alternatives we've seen to date.


I'm guessing because it's better than what they could integrate and build up with an open-source alternative in a short amount of time and thus more cost effective.


I always tell financially conservative people they can buy US$1 worth of Bitcoins just so they can learn how it works. I think many newcomers believe Bitcoins are indivisible.


I've been reading off and on about Bitcoins on HN for a while and had no idea that they could be broken down into smaller units. From Wikipedia:

"In trade, one bitcoin is subdivided into 100-million smaller units called satoshis, defined by eight decimal places.[4]"


I think this partly stems from the term "Bitcoin" itself, since coins are not divisible (having moved beyond pieces of eight long ago). But there are no coins in Bitcoin! It's all just txouts and txins.


You can think of it as a magically valuable liquid flowing down a system of ever-growing pipes representing the blockchain where the transactions are linking points and txins and txouts are pipes with their cross-section areas corresponding to their respective values. Once you think about it, the analogy fits perfectly.


"Coin" in the Bitcoin system is a nickname for a transaction output. The value of a coin can be anything, 1 BTC, 0.000345 BTC, 500,000 BTC...


oke, sounds like a plan. What's the easiest place to buy 1/50th bitcoin? I created a Coinbase account, but that seems US only :(

I just figured out I have this adres at coinbase: 1AL1NkXgkoCHA4VCFwyn4E12orw4cSbWhQ


"Respond to ads where people are seeking roomates. If they respond back, game on." I've seen most posts ask for not non-solicitation.


Yes, and that's great. To AirBnB, non-solicitation means less competition, because they are going to solicit anyways.
