You need to obtain a moonlighting clause. It gives you permission to work on an idea or set of ideas. Your employer should have one available.

As someone starting a hardware company with amazing software as part of the experience, I am battling the same problem(s). I want to hire creatives who don't need to be delegated to, and can own full cycle of tasks on their own. I have

So this is what I was getting at precisely. As buckbova said, programming is problem solving, and solving problems is a creative process. If you treat developers as creatives (like you do design, etc) you get a superior product and work env

Heres the problem I have with this entire discussion -- and this post does address it a bit -- but programming IS a creative role and needs to be treated as such. Many organizations hire programmers as technical roles, but they are generall

Firstly, as others stated, you took a risk and likely violated your lease as well as NYC law. With that said, this tidbit from your listing is a brilliant indicator of how you inevitably brought this issue onto yourself: "You may host

I use 'hollywood' as a way to describe the industry not the individual players. There are people in 'hollywood' that tried different business models (Louis CK comes to mind), and have found extreme success in doing so. T

I've tried it a few times recently, and its pretty awesome. The takeaway I have from this is that if hollywood chose to embrace this sort of thing, they would solve distribution costs (seed vs host). Their cost will be contained to jus

Ive been doing this with my own startup. I am about 30% there (regarding talking to investors about it) and as such I have reached out to investors I am friendly with and asked for feedback. Most of the feedback I have received was "yo

I love this, and I love your test for the desktop version. One suggestion, make the price a slider from $0->$100 and instead of asking "Would you pay $5 for a desktop version of Hemingway? It would add the ability to save and open t

A lot of people who might live in these markets, also probably don't own cars. In NYC, for example 55% of people DONT own cars[1] They are right to focus on high rates of adoption with people who live in suburbs than those that live in

To be clear, our iterating like crazy is getting customer feedback and making new features or products to test new ideas as fast as possible. A few weeks ago I was asked to make a dashboard for a client of ours on the last evening of our ha

I don't really feel like a slave, maybe I am under reacting here. I am pissed the NSA is collecting data, I am upset at all the recent revelations we have had about data privacy in the last 6-8 months, but I certainly don't feel l

This correlation is lost on me. Founders are entitled to make a living wage. In NYC being paid less than $50k would mean a few things: !) You have to live in squalor. 2) You have money from somewhere else to support the rest of your needs.

It could be just a strange coincidence but I used to own a paintball company called Gangstar Paintball. I met with JT Sports (at the time owned by Jarden Group) in Bentonville, Arkansas about selling my company to them as well as a project

At the very least, I believe they are responsible for paying the credit card companies to replace the stolen cards. I can't find my source on this, but I do remember a few times that a retailer was held fiscally responsible for new car

Oh look click bait on HN. It's a neat little hack, but saying something about how many lines of R it took to make this happen just left me looking for something more interesting, of which this is not.

I've wanted to make my own version for a while, but using a RBP (which I use for my media consumption anyway) was previously a deterrent. I think you should make a HDCP pass-thru box because the easy of installation and practicality ma

I get that drone delivery is feasible, and in a few years COULD happen, but seriously, does this solve a problem? If I need something like toilet paper, paper towels, nails, screws, lightbulbs, etc.. I am surrounded by places I can buy thes

You should avoid including script tags in the head because it introduces single points of failure in your app. Losing a few ms of 'analytics' time is better than providing your users with a broken site because your analytics scrip

This slideshow lost all credibility when it said to put your analytics in the <head> tags. Sure some analytics providers might recommend you do that, but that is wrong and only serves to A) Slow your site down B) Introduce a single po

Wait, you mean adding salt to your food makes it palatable?! Eureka! Seriously, if I need to boil something in sodium to make it taste great, that kind of defeats the purpose.

As a [large] dog owner, this is a gut wrenching video. Watching that dog roll around in agony after being shot multiple times sent me over to my dog to hug him for just being alive. With that said, this guy is an idiot, the cops overreacted
