I'd open a bar/pub with good cask ale and decent electronic music.
Actually whenever I get too stressed out at work I consider doing this, I've got the necessary capital and in a city like Oslo where people don't care about beer prices it can surely be made into a profitable thing.
- ainiriand 10y agoDO IT. NOW. Seriously, I think it is an excellent idea. It could also be a tourist meeting point if properly placed.
- dx034 10y agoOpen a bar is something you should really only do if you don't have to take on debt and can pay for the starting costs without ruining yourself. Very few bars turn out to be profitable, even those with excellent ideas.

- tazjin 10y agoI'm not sure if you linked to the right page / responded to the correct comment?
- DanBC 10y agoJWZ looks at referrer headers. Right click and open in incognito window.
- fjdlwlv 10y agoPlease remove this link. JWZ.org attacks viewers referred by ycombinator.com
- peterwwillis 10y agoIn that way that a testicle in an egg cup calling HN users brogrammers and finance-obsessed man-children is an attack. It's actually biting satire; an attack would be more direct and in some way actually harmful (ego doesn't count)
- js2 10y agough, sorry everyone. I didn't know jwz was hostile to HN. The comment is too old to delete now. :-( The relevant content at the link is: Hi, I'm Jamie Zawinski. I'm the proprietor of DNA Lounge, a world famous and award-winning all ages dance club and live music venue in San Francisco, and of DNA Pizza, the 24 hour cafe and pizzeria next door. Prior to that, I worked as a programmer. I was one of the founders of Netscape and Mozilla.org, and have been involved in the free software and open source community since the mid-80s. I was the primary developer of Lucid Emacs (now XEmacs), and probably wrote most of your screen savers.

- tacoman 10y agoMake sure you open that in a new window to scrub the referrer.
- pavel_lishin 10y agoApparently they've been in a rough patch ever since he opened, fueled largely by his Netscape money. They're out of the rough patch now, and tumbling down a rough hillside.
- collyw 10y agoThose two seem like they would cater to vastly different crowds, Real ale for old men in caps, electronic music for a younger lager drinking (if drinking at all) crowd.
