1) I read the article
2) Did they try adding women to a women only group ?
3) Did they try adding men to a women only group ?
4) Did they try adding more women to a mixed group ?
5) Did they try adding more men to a mixed group ?
6) Did they try to remove all men from a group and replace them by women ?
6) Does this have to do with women being in a group, or does this just have to do with the group having elements from both genders collaborating ? The conclusions made in the article ,to me, seems more buzz-seeking than enriching.
The study was done in only one perspective, wich is adding women to a group of men. In other words, men perform better in the presence of women. Next should be trying to add women to more women, or maybe adding men to a group of women, in order to have a bigger picture about how the collective intelligence works when mixing genders.
Do you have a policy for how users can _prove_ that they are who they're claiming to be ?
Can you handle having _too_many_ users under the terms of that policy ?
What if my email provider, let's call it @MySuperAwesomeEmailProvider.com just goes out of business and decided to stop the service. Then I can't answer to the emails you will "life-ping" me with. And I won't even be able to change my email address on your system because I would have lost my account password. And then the next day, I don't think I would be able to go out.

I'm talking about a beautifull user interface and user experience, that would make your life on Linux more enjoyable, be it using a text editor, browsing your file system, watching a movie or even clicking a button. I'm not talking about applications, nor about what you can run or what you can't run on it, and no, I don't use photoshop, nor play Portal. I have a mac, and I have a Gentoo too. Tried Ubuntu, and fell in love with fedora once. If you are happy with your GTK, I am not. I'm sad for the limited options I have. And don't tell me "build it yourself" this is the way open source works, because I've been there, I tried, and it didn't work so well. Projects like this need financial support. Long financial support. And no, Linux is NOT a desktop. And finally, please, stop being against the idea of a beautiful Linux desktop.
A better desktop environment.
People have said the same thing with the Chrome browser before. "What would Google do which makes their flavor of a browser better than others? Well I guess, a lot.
Thanks for pointing that out but I think that unless you were hiding from the internet or something, everyone in HN knows about Chrome OS. I'm talking here about a desktop OS, not a browser-mode.
This structure is old, and needs to be revised, since it was invented before the internet. Now, where do I put Linus torvalds on that list ? or even Larry Page, since they've got a G+ account and I have added them to the circle "modern age shakers".
I think using it or not depends on people. If I am to become a freelancer, no, I won't use it, not when I'm just starting up. Maybe later, when am an experienced freelancer, It would make me feel like if I had a startup or something.
