Seems pretty nice. I may consider the Pixel 2 XL over the IPhone X in a few months, but will definitely need to see some reviews of both first. The removal of the headphone jack is devastating. I listen to music nearly every waking moment,

Just wanted to +1 for the note about the TS/SCI clearance. I am a contractor, and my firm will pay an employee $10k for referring a new employee that already has one. It took me 2 months of non-work before I received my interim, and it

I've always been really impressed by YC and have followed the company for a long time now. I just hope that long-term their strategy works. It has already scaled pretty well, but it feels like there will be a next big step for them soo

I've come to a point where I really think no company will ever have even competent InfoSec practices. I've worked at a fortune-100 (terrible due to scale probably), a small InfoSec consulting firm (terrible due to lack of scale an

Sorry I didn't see your comment until now. Right, it is intended to be a for-profit business, not really interested in tackling better education for everyone. Long term I think a great case will be made for taking some % of students th

Disagree. Coding is one of hundreds of skills that can lead to a good career, and coding is absolutely not for everyone. Football/dance are extra-curriculars, I am all for coding being an option early on (high school?) but not anytime

I know it doesn't fall neatly into any of those categories, but I'd love some feedback on my idea: I want to create an organization that is essentially a 6 week retreat for students before they begin college. Selecting the best ap

1k people getting 1k a month for 5 years = $60 million. At the end of the day, an expensive group. Really impressed by the ambition here, and hope for great success for the project. Basic Income research will be vital in the future when it

I have a "purpose" I am aiming to achieve I suppose. I believe there are some universal truths and that they are able to be understood by man. I try to identify these very very basic truths, confirm them, then apply them to my lif

I actually think I might pick one up. In fact I may look for a 2 for 1 deal on the 6s. I'm headed back to Apple after having an Android ever since my IPhone 4, I'm just done with Android. I love my 6s work phone. I think I'l

Yep I've checked it, but it only supports a few of the applications i want to include. Also, the UI and such leaves a lot to be desired. I'm decided to just start on it. I'll use it to give myself an intro to HTML and Python.
