Grew up in Portland, live in SF. I'm the opposite. Prefer SF. Both have their pluses and minuses but for the tech and startup scene, it's not comparable for me. I love Portland and it'll always have a place in my heart but it's just not clo

I literally was looking into this last week. I ended up deciding against it. If your walls are like most common walls, you'll notice it's not a smooth surface. That kills it for me. I instead went to Craigslist and found a used whiteboard i

I can't say for certain on the number of tech vs non-tech startups and it varies depending on what each person's take of a startup is. So putting that aside, what I can say is I that not every startup is tech base, even if a large number

I strongly prefer (and do) live a pretty extreme minimalist lifestyle. Thus the less I own, the better. For that reason, desktops, a warehouse full of super computers, etc... Is extremely unappealing. That said, I love my setup now (Macbook

My situation is unique so don't know if this will help you. My son is also under 2 years old. He has always been a very happy baby (never cries except for when he gets hurt which almost never happens). I guess this is a bit different than w

Mark Suster wrote a recent post echoing an old saying I believe in... It takes years to build trust but only seconds to destroy it... Prior to this, I had nothing but admiration and praise for Instapaper. And while I did try out the competi

That's not what I was saying at all. I'm not implying that that was enough to build the prototype for Instagram or not. This isn't about how he learned to program, or any of that stuff. Was more on the lines of is he lying or not. The conte
