I suspect one of the reasons why github just hit a million users is that people use more than one account to get around that limitation.

Interesting, I think it would be one of the first. The reason why is that people that you hire early and that put together the core of the company will have a bunch of extremely important knowledge that will be very hard to transfer to anot

The ones that didn't find better employment are likely not the ones at the top of their game. And seriously, after your employer pulls a stunt like that would you go back?

We've come a long way from "warning: 800x600 pixel gif here", this image is so big however that I think that a warning is suitable, if you are not on a machine with a lot of memory you should probably not click on the large version of that

Just my own experience here, not sure how much of that is shared with others. We launched with a duct-tape and baling wire version of an idea cobbled together from mostly stock components. It blew up overnight and kept on growing exponentia

Employees that you gain through a recruiter, you will probably lose through a recruiter. Building a company is hard, hiring lots of good, loyal people in a short time is a lot harder than scaling some software.

They claim they don't have the resources to make them available to the public. You are answering a completely different question. They seem to be saying they don't have the funds and/or infrastructure, not that they don't want to make the

Ask HN posts are so shortlived on the homepage that they might as well not be there. The penalty on an 'Ask HN' reinforces that. They do have their own section but it is far less popular than the homepage. This effect is so strong that it

Flags will push content down on the homepage, early flags on the new page stop content from getting on the homepage at all. In other words, flags are a crude mechanism that you can use to modify the rankings, effectively they are downvotes.

Ok, so here is my 5 minute solution: I just flagged every piece of content that I think does not belong on the homepage, now I'll scan the first 3 pages of the 'new' section and upvote all those articles that I think should be there. If eve

Being dramatically better than google is a high hurdle. It's tough for competitors but google pretty much did an end-run around the search problem and to be just like google is not good enough a reason to switch. Now if someone would do to

If wikileaks was the cause of this - and that is unresolved as far as I can see - it would actually increase their standing.

Why would a non-accepted start-up still be given a preference over one that never applied? Is there something magic about applying for an incubator that makes teams that do so better at their game? An 'unknown' losing to a 'failed' may cut

There are many different kinds of high end gigs. Some people just need one single problem solved in a short time and are willing to pay for that. If you have something that needs to be built and you want a long term commitment you should si

As long as you get paid by the hour you should work those hours, be it at the office or at home. If you don't want to get paid by the hour, become a contractor and do fixed price jobs.
