   I think its an interesting idea. Never saw anything quite resembling that in the wild. Might it be that open source code != open source design? Both groups collaborate, but what does it say that designers fawn over sites like forrst (which

   Congrats. How long did you have the old design up before the revamp (and success)?

   Same here. Thanks for the links. I am specifically interesting in learning Ruby THEN Rails. The other way feels backwards, but that might just be me. I digress-I have a basic, I mean real basic question-what is a recommended environment to

   If you don't plan on taking money-save time and opt for fiscal sponsorship. It boils down to an existing non profit allowing your operation to borrow its federal EIN and you getting the benefits of being a non-profit. You will still need to

   There is no problem HN readers can not solve. This is awesome. Have you heard of pressdoc. Euro company that seems to naturally extend from a service like yours. Best of luck with this - you will probably be hearing from me!

   If you are a quoura user I would direct you there. If you need a simple interface for generating legal documents (NOTE: DEL corp, but can easily be crafted for your desired legal structure) search for "Founder Workbench." We found the price

    We're in concept validation mode. We basically have a feel for the 'tent' we want to build and will fill in features as we better define our niches. Right now we are in 'is this worth our time' mode! Thanks for the feedback!

    Let me be a bit clearer. We created a survey asking people questions related to our concept and deployed it using ask your target market (AYTM). We reached a nationwide sample slightly above 100 people ranging from 18 to 55. 75% of responde

    I take it you work in an industry that is highly competitive. In my experience two weeks straight (ten work days with remote log-in for meetings) is standard. It really depends on if the expectant mom has family in the neighborhood or willi

    - How much: Industry specific and tenure. I would say the expected start salary undergrad in one of the major cities is 38-42, master's level candidate start in the 50s and with tenure you tap out in mid six-figures. Or you go work for the

    Reports are the anathema of the profession. Research is critical for reasoned discussion. But once you add political machinations people don't want reason. There are entirely too many winner takes all games played on the backs of the people

    I prefer advocacy organization or research outfit. Think tank implies inaction. If you live in the western world moving policy is literally like moving mountains the higher the scale or wealthier the opposition. "Action Tank" anyone?

    Its funny I had the EXACT opposite experience. I realized I wanted to make the products and left to look for opportunities to do so. But I think the point is that people use think tanks for self-affirmation. Whether its research, talking po

    Sure. Take for example clean energy (NOTE: I policy wonk'd in this area). There are some folks who want to 'disrupt' the field with technology. Some support this (most consumers should) and some don't (the more vertically integrated legacy

    Harsh. But not wholly inaccurate. I think it really depends on who you work for. There are some think tanks that do policy and some that do politics. Policy is about the analytical development of rules and procedures. Politics is exactly wh

    I worked in that space for seven years. To put it plainly, we were paid to create ideas by entities and individuals who wanted a certain frame or perspective to emerge or persist in the wild.

    Thanks, I will check that out. I definitely have the script and the animation I will look to partner with someone. I can't say this enough, but thank you to everyone its nice to be part of a community of folks struggling with the same ambit
