What does this mean? This sentence especially is quite confusing: "It works! As your competitors rise, eventually they have done to them what they did to you, and if you sit there a while, you don't have to do a thing -- nature takes care o

Seems useful, but is this true? "Face it, no sane person wants to buy software (or any other service, really) from a startup." I've read plenty of stories that claim otherwise, but they were just stories. Seems like the world would be a pre

Why does he keep referring to himself as "your author here" or "the author"? Hiding the fact that you're referring to yourself doesn't make you not refer to yourself. It's just confusing - say "I" instead.

Although this is completely tangential to TFA, there's no real discussion going on about that (who knows why...?). Anyways, it's odd that a -2 point comment brings your score down 3 points. Why not start them all off at 0 and avoid this od

Personally, I think that's mega-unintuitive when you can have the things you're touching right there, in front of your face. Sure, it gets rid of the issue of fingers blocking the display, but people really like the tangibility of the tou

Sure, there are tons of annoying ads that get in your face and make you want to commit suicide. But there's an easy solution: FlashBlock. Regular ads come through, and ridiculous ads turn into a little box with an activate button.

One of my friends, who is black, says he avoids black women due to the way they act. Perhaps this has something to do with it?

I'm a very big video game nerd, but I'm also interested in stuff like dance and the outdoors. Has it not been your experience that your D&D-playing colleagues also do things completely unrelated to nerdom?

But that makes no sense: you must have played with other people if you played regularly. Did you not fit in with those?

That English quote at the end seems pretty non-fluent to me (the "but" seems unnatural). I wonder how much of his other achievements are exaggeration.

Out-marketing is where all the battles are won. You have to make people aware of what you're doing, not sit there and wait for them to do it.

Sounds nothing like Launchy. Launchy searches for apps of similar names as what you searched, and ranks them in order of usage. Makes the Start Menu obsolete. Your app sounds not quite as good as mapping your browser's address bar to I'm Fe

Comes across as an awfully bad name; I hope they change it. Sounds like they wanted "Shareshot", but it was taken. Divvy's an awkward word. Plus, it apparently means 'idiot' in Liverpudlian.
