I am very sorry for your loss. my (armchair) analysis on cancer treatment - i) chemotherapy, in vacuum, most likely does considerably more harm than good, ii) sugar feeds cancer cells, iii) essential to feed body nutrients from a variety of

I'll share a secret. I'm aware of the fact that my tirades here are getting me (HN nick) name recognition, something that may assist me in getting more penetration with my messages and my products. however, that is a byproduct of

I don't see many coming to Pinboard founder's defense when he is being accused of fraud. acting professional strikes at the core of what went wrong here, at why so many are antagonized by the tech culture despite the enormous va

Does that take away from his achievements? I don't see anyone else succeeding or even attempting to "build a brand", which requires one to forge his own path. Courage: in short supply. is not defined by ability to mouth off i

I got increasingly irritated with his faux innocence as the evening progressed. Please look up confirmation bias. And (please) do not lecture me about my lack of awareness of the situation due to my newbie status.

I've figured YC out as soon as I finished reading a few good books on it. I especially loved the journey Justin and co. went through in their frantic search for something (seemingly anything would've done) to sell. HN does not

sure! this maintains my point. the company is operating in an important and revolutionary space (as Facebook did in early 2000s). however, both companies have failed to separate themselves from the dominant schools of thoughts in business f

I hope it is. I'm not a fan of virtual reality - especially not with crackpot marketing and product divisions of unhinged tech giants that have been out of touch with our needs deciding the roadmap for this tech.

you are right. I am only speaking for myself, and also I'm naive to think there is no need for political speech in this space to further establish LGBTS(lesbian gay bi-sexual transgender and straight) equality.

by SherlockeHolmes 10y ago
why should I care? Is it because of the political statement this makes in helping spread acceptance for LGBT community? if not, then neither a person's religion nor a person's sexual preference should be a public topic.

true it's more about sacrificing the possible payout if/when the company exits, which obviously can set you up nicely down the road to do the things you want and have a happy life.

that's definitely a tough decision. it's forcing you to choose between financial security and personal happiness, both of which are very important (in fact, the latter is often ignored for the sake of the former, but it shouldn&#x

oh yes, the health care system and the mental health care system are broken - especially because of our idiotic obsession with making everything privatized. Of course, this wouldn't have been an issue if we had health care entrepreneur

These can be tricky as they tend to encourage pigeon-holing of ourselves into certain personality archetypes in our mind. I skipped the test altogether, and read through the analyses to help recalibrate my own vision of myself, and to formu

Thank you for the great post! I especially agree with your second paragraph. I admit that my post constitutes a mixture of ethos, pathos, and logos - as opposed to being perfectly aligned with logical stipulations.

Cites a poorly conducted research that draws erroneously general conclusions. Propaganda/spam.

An excellent article citing financial times that introduces important topics that need to be talked about on quite an urgent basis.

The fact that some of us here mentioned "reasonable doubt" explains the shortcomings we currently have in depth of analysis beyond anything superficial. Our justifications sound like this - "while we murdered them in millions

Wing players that are trying to represent a consistent dual threat of slashing or shooting shoot a high volume from that range. Often times you only have half a second to get the shot off with good balance.

Thank you for the additional questions. Dais/Agora is approximately 3 weeks old since conception. As it is with most natural progressions, the company began as a dense clump of inspiration that has been unraveling itself within my mind

To add to my previous reply, it has in truth been sad to watch sites like CNN do away with their commenting sections. Now that I hear that Sam Altman - a person with considerable popular influence - has openly chastised debating, I am becom

I'm not aware of Sam's tweet. This being a tough space is an encouraging sign for a start-up. It was a founder of YC who encouraged start-ups to not avoid "schlep" business. Edit: I realized that your reference to a twee
