Very interesting read, I browsed the author's website and it says he is a independent security researcher and self employed, a real question, I am interesting in knowing he survives just reporting bugs, when there is no surety a bug could be found every month for a living....

abmateen··on Micromanagement, the new Startup culture?
Its really really bad to micromanage employees, People better work in a good healthy environment, micromanaging really effects productivity, and I think psychologically employers who do micromanagement are ill, Usually micromanagement is done when you have no trust on employees, I had a very very bitter experience with a company, doing micromanagement, thats why I practically know what it means when you are not trusted as a employee and yet micromanaged.
abmateen··on Tizen: Open source Intel/Linux Foundation-backed mobile/device OS
I think the development stack should be based on native elements instead of GTK or Qt or HTML5, it may include have a web based development and native including C++/Java.Idea , purely, based on WebOS really sucks.

abmateen··on Ask HN: Should I leave university?
I am a computer programmer , working with Android , Linux , iPhone, OS, Networks etc, I have passion for computer. I was in the same condition as you are in, I decided to drop out from university in 7th Semester ( 4th year ). But I changed by decision because of practical reasons, I have two jobs, one Linux Administration and one as Software Engineer without degree, but I decided to continue , am still in 4th year 8th semester, what I advice you is to continue instead of leaving, if you had got a chance to CS degree, I think you should continue.

For sure, people will hire you without a degree, if you have good portfolio and out of the box skills.

I want to share a experience of mine, I was offered a job in Samsung as contract position , and my CV was selected. But I prefered to complete degree before leaving. I think a degree is important, a piece of paper will give you confidence in facing people and employers.

Thanks.
