- railsjedi 14y agoThe N stands for "Nice"
- lisper 14y agoHeh, I thought it was a variable name, i.e. ncombinator let's you combine N people...
- 27182818284 14y agoYou're getting downvoted, but I couldn't take it seriously either with both Spartans and ninjas. Why not just go the distance and throw in rockstars, a big X in a word like eXtreme and the other stuff I see on the back of my Doritos?
- yakshaving 14y agoDefinitely pretty far from brogrammers :). Just want to build a support community to foster startups. Ideas, and startups are fragile. Might as well do anything that'll give us a fair shot. No reason to hate :)
