Assuming the revenue is pretty stable (and not declining), I'd offer her 2x her share of annual revenue, or $20k. If the growth on the app is increasing rapidly, you may have to offer more. These things are more art than science, but if bo

Great discussion! The author doesn't seem to introduce the concept of training/testing datasets which absolutely critical to obtaining any reasonable model. So I don't buy the author's thesis that economic models are always wrong. The sol

What Aaron's trying to get accomplished here is precisely the type of work that lobbyists get paid for. And although he's right, the government can stonewall him indefinitely unless they have some kind of executive order to force a resolut

Andrey Ternovskiy also turned down several large investment offers from U.S. firms. His refusal to deal with DST doesn't necessarily mean he had ethical problems with the source. Maybe he just didn't want VC money.

This is a no brainer. Go home and work for your dad, learn some business chops and earn money. After a few years you'll have earned some strong managerial skills and have accumulated a nice financial buffer to do whatever startup you want.

My understanding is that it gets a bit faster and you get a few extra perks if you purchasea (pretty cheap) subscription. Not a bad deal for an awesome newsreader.

Today's security model is broken. And most people, included readers here at HN equate safety with a low probability of being hacked. I've signed up for at least 50 sites, probably more. The chances are good that not all of these sites ha

Meh, his point is arguable, but could see how reasonable minds can disagree. Understanding new biology can be akin to reverse engineering a really complex piece of software, except you have you have an editor that's cumbersome and hard to

If I were a professor and the question was "why we can't drink sea water", I'd give the article a higher score than yours. Your comment is about the best method to hydrate oneself. His article is about "why we can't drink seawater".

This is a REAL potential game changer and I've been patiently waiting to see how long it would take before a major internet video streaming company made this move. The underlying reason for Netflix's current woes is because CONTENT producer

I've watched this show a few times. I'd highly caution against anyone going on the show if your objective is to actually find a match (as opposed to being on TV for the fun of it). Patti (the host) will consistently throw the millionaires

Out of curiosity, I wonder if it would be illegal for a journalist to falsely report a critical story about a company while buying short term puts to profit from the stock freefall. There are early stage biotech companies going through cli

The article is based on a compelling premise, but the analysis is often generic enough to be meaningless and leaves much to be desired. Most of the do's and don't infographic were either false or obvious. Example, Do: 'Talk Straight'. Do

In multiparty systems, a minority party (like the Green Party) will often compromise on issues that are not on their core platform in order to get support on their one or two key issues. One of the key issues for the Green Party in Germany

I wasn't really trying to convince you, just making an observation. Entrepreneurs are almost by definition hard-headed. But if I were an investor I would seriously question your decision making ability based on the fact that you dropped ou

Quick, no googling! Who's the Editor in Chief of the New York Times? The Wall Street Journal? I have no idea myself and I'd bet most readers of those papers don't.

It looks like they took short positions in the firm before releasing the report. They may gain a significant profit from this, which I think is perfectly fine as all of the information here is public (but not necessarily easily accessible)

Am I the only one noticing some latent sexism in some of these comments? I view Whitman's role with Ebay as comparable to Eric Schmidt and Google. Both joined about 2 years about their respective companies were founded and made them #1 in

I saw an ad somewhere saying entry fee was about 2 grand. I almost fell out of my chair laughing. The only types of public conferences worth that type of money are high value supplier/vendor conferences, where you've already got a product
