Could just be me, but seems just another pay-to-learn type service. What differentiates Udacity from other similar educational services?

Anyone else not able to read the article? NYTimes prompts me to register beforehand.

Sleek, simple UI. Too bad no Windows Phone release just yet.

Why would a company plan an IPO when they currently don't have a business model that makes money? Suggesting Snapchat is gearing up for an IPO is laughable.

From the article: "No written permission of any kind was ever given by the students."

What's the statute of limitations on something like this? I'm guessing since this occurred so long ago, nothing can be done.

I love how nonchalant the CEO was when he called the VICE reporter to tell him not to eat any of the spoiled batch of Soylent.

First the Chinese exchange (GBL) and now this? Scammers have been hitting the exchanges hard recently.

With all of the philanthropy that Bill and his wife are doing, my gut feeling is that centuries from now, Bill will go down as being remembered more so for his contributions to humanity than everything he did in his professional career. Regardless, a great human being.

I agree. The design may seem unusual from a Westerner's point of view but from a Japanese prospective, this may fit the bill as a clean, simple design. The same can be said in reverse.

If anything, the web provides a strong medium for bitcoin and this helps with the buying/selling process. Bitcoin wouldn't survive without the major benefits the web provides it.

Being someone who got scammed out of ~5BTC back when they were ~$50 dollars, this happens way too frequently. We only get to hear about the large cases.

Saw this being discussed on the news, congrats on the quick release! The simplicity of your design should put the contractors to shame who tried to build something that ultimately couldn't work properly.

I agree. If a custom hashtag feature existed I'd be purchasing one ASAP.

The article states that the next planned ATM will be in Toronto. Are these planned for Canada only as of now or will other parts of the world be deploying these as well?

If there was ever a title to draw you into reading the article.. this is it.

I really like the simplicity of the UI of your cruise deal website. As someone who is currently looking to book a cruise trip, this helps.

I can understand why Ford's CEO would be considered for the lead job in the automotive industry (as he helped build Ford's reputation back) but being the head of Microsoft? I'm wondering what value there is in hiring a CEO that does not have a technology background/vision.

Along with the game being quite enjoyable, anyone else enjoy the nice instrumental in the background? Quite relaxing while trying to type like a mad man.

I'm waiting for the day when a big retailer (ex. Amazon) starts accepting bitcoin as payment for its' goods and services. I feel once this happens, bitcoin acceptance amongst businesses will surge.

A few reports have been speculating that his next destination will be Cuba, for obvious reasons.

edit: Per reports, Cuba will be a layover before Venezuela, his final destination.

Major props to Elon and Tesla as a whole on paying back its government loan before its maturity date. Hope this catches other car manufacturers off guard and reinforces the idea of how successful an auto company can be with properly built and aesthetically looking electric vehicles.

Completely agree with you on this. A CEO dumping a large amount of stock is usually (but not always) a sign of bad things to come and sends a negative signal to the market.

I'm sure people that read Bitcoin articles make their judgement through the articles' content as opposed to a picture.
