The whole Bay Area has experienced ludicrous appreciation
>>

The area of San Francisco is, in a geographic sense, small. You just can't build a lot on such little land. And with everyone going full NIMBY, I'm not surprised in the slightest that these prices are still climbing.
Same goes for up here in the Northwest. Both Seattle and Portland are small landmasses trying to cater to the demands of hundreds of millions of potential inhabitants while hearing the constant NIMBY drumbeats by boomer residents.
Everybody loses in the end.

How long do you think is left before it all blows up?
It seems already to have reached ludicrous levels. If it lasts another year, I'll be surprised.

Has anyone made money from buying websites and apps on Flippa? It seems like buying a portfolio of websites/apps for cheap could net you a lot of money.

Agreed, but wouldn't buying an automated website with a good domain for 5 bucks be able to net you some money after SEO-optimization?

/g/entooman here. I quit my job today and proposed developing a new system for my current employer (the one im quiting from) going from lots of programs that written for the Borland database and machines that are running on 256Mb of ram to the current year. I guess the silicon board may not be the place to ask but I have the tech side covered but should I work in the company or develop the product and sell it as a contractor?
Does anyone have any kind of experience with this sort of thing?
I really like the people I work with but I just cant deal with working with COM port and increasing page file sizes to stop crashes and deal with the question of "Why" day after day. Im not really sure where to ask
I have a plan to cut the cost of hardware by about 60% and license fees to less than 10% of current cost but I dont know if I should step into the void and start my own company again or not.

Absolutely come at it from the angle of a contractor. You will be able to bill out at a higher rate and not have to deal with any of the inner politics of working as an employee. You can also negotiate to retain some of the IP in case you want to pitch it to other companies. Create a proof of concept first and then if they are interested, they can decide if they want to pay a flat amount for finished project or pay a consulting fee per hour. You have a lot more leverage this way.
>>
>>1461736
This is some of the reasons im considering a contracting aspect, but the one thing I dont have is the time to get a full functioning product ready for sale and all the software being under the GNU/MIT license im not sure how the IP will work.
As another aspect the longest part of generating the software would be the database that the company already has and I could use and modify and cut time by at least 3 months.
Also as I have already resigned I have considered a rehire option with a negotiation of salary and hardware allowance as well as a paycheck. I have seen the other offerings for POS systems and the market is there but without an "IN" there is no way to compete with the current competition unless i have some old boy connections and I have none.
I am slightly biased because its a company of 25 or so people and has been around for 20 years but the new blood in charge is trained for restaurant management and not tech and I have found ways to address most of the faults in the system but I dont want to be blinded by emotion on a business opportunity that could make me lotsa emony.
I think your are right, but I have to keep my risk low.

Hey /biz/,
I fell into the meme of attending free uni in Germany. I'm currently doing industrial engineering in TU Berlin. The thing is, I don't really think I'll enjoy working here because of the horrible language. How is the employment prospect of someone with a German engineering degree in the US? I'm also doing my degree in German, is that a good or a bad thing in the eyes of English speaking employers?

i have yet to hear a good answer to this question. In a portfolio filled with only stocks what percent should be shorted vs bought?

0% shorted
100% bought
You don't short sell in a portfolio.
>>
Shorting is a meme, never short a stock
>>
>>1461712
It's not a strict percentage, and I'm assuming use of the word "portfolio" to designate your market holdings.
When conditions tend more toward bear, your short allocation should be higher, the reverse during bull tendencies.
Of the 8 equities I'm holding currently, 2 are shorts. However, monetary percentage is at less than 10% of total value.

give me your opinion on these questions;
A) When is a startup no longer a startup and instead an established biz? Is it a dollar amount? Time? Final product?
B) When is a small business no longer a small business? Employee count? Dollars? Time?

these things are highly subjective.. each country has its own definitions of a business size, based on revenue and employee count

give me your opinion on these questions;
A) When is a skinny girl no longer a skinny girl and instead a fatass bitch? Is it specific lbs of weight? Twinkies consumed? Length of double chin?
B) When is a good girl no longer a good girl? Number of dicks sucked? Amount of weed smoked? Amount of times she sticks random objects in her asshole?

Ever since I was 14 I thought I knew what I wanted to do with my life, I started programming at a young age and am in my second year of college getting my GEDs done. Up until now I thought I wanted to major in computer science, but I know my true dream is not to be a codemonkey slave among a flock of pajeets, but to own a tech business, and I also know that dreams remain dreams for 99% of people. What do I do? I am at a crossroads right now. I feel like business majors won't be worth shit because the world economy is bound to collapse in the coming years, should I stick with computer science?

Do you think computer science would be relent in a collapsed global economy? Seriously, at least with financial experience you would have an edie regarding bartering.
