I wrote this on the home-bound train one night during a tough time with the startup. I assured you, no creative license here. The hours were pretty brutal on a couple of occasions. I made sure that everything is well supported at home first

Good luck! I think we all share a dream of having the ability to control Time to satisfy our thirst for creativity and at the same time take care of our love ones. Here's to dreaming, right?! :)

If you can drop the stress at the office after 5PM, I think you should be feel blessed and I'm very happy for you. I generally try to not miss dinner, but I have a rule that I go by, which is I never ask my colleagues to do what I was

I wrote this during a very tough run at the startup. Perhaps let me share a little bit more so that is it in context. First and foremost, most credits, indeed go to my wife and family. The reason why I didn't mention my wife in this pi

A very short and sweet thought. Love it. My wife and I have a pact: we'll live for our children and family but we'll always continue to develop ourselves. This way, there is never a resentment toward the people you love. I, too, w

I've read everyone's comment thus far. Thank you for sharing your thoughts and for allowing me the honor to be part of your discussion. I figured that we're not trying to find a correct answer here. But knowing our community

A couple of friends from the HN community & IRC helped edit this piece. Just thought I'd share with others as well.

Although it servers an entirely different purpose, there are a couple of things I would ask: 1) How would one share encrypted files? 2) What happen when user forgot password? 3) What cryptographic algorithm is this using? Actual issues when

If you find yourself needing to use Dropbox (or other cloud providers) for one reason or another, I would humbly suggest giving us a try: https://www.ncryptedcloud.com/ . We try to remedy the situation by allowing what cloud

Hi there, awakeasleep. I think all your points are very solid. I would, however, disagree with you about Dropbox or any other cloud provider implementing their own, in-house, encryption. They're the one with the data and having the key

Didn't work so well with Ho Chi Minh during the Vietnam War. When there's nothing left to loose but pride, I'm quite sure that the "mad" metric is a little off.

Congratulations on your success. I really enjoy reading your story and looking at the web site. Are you guys self-funded? I'm curious about the first few mattresses and orders. Would love to read a longer and detailed article if not a

At our company, we use our own solution: "nCryptedCloud" ( http://ncryptedcloud.com ), client-side encryption software that secures your files before they go into the cloud (Dropbox). We don't keep the data, just th

I think this is a great example of why we should ask question about cloud security & privacy. I've written down some thoughts about this: http://vuongnguyen.com/personal-business-cloud-security.html -V.

One question: how do you share files securely with others? Have you check out our company's free products, http://ncryptedcloud.com ? We secure your data before it goes into Dropbox, allow securely sharing and many more feat

We'll have to wait and see, but what I read was definitely plausible and sound. Intriguing indeed.

The problem here is: the people who has data (Wuala) also determine how the files are encrypted. No box is ever unbreakable, however, the chance of breaking it is much bigger if you have the locksmith holding on to the box. I've talked

If you want to check out an alternative, our nCryptedCloud iOS has a secure camera that would encrypt the image (in memory) before it even gets to the device. Once encrypted, you manage access rights. You revoke access to anyone in the futu

Quick plug here if you guys don't mind: our security product nCryptedCloud protect at-rest data in your dropbox account. Should you ever loose your laptop and want to make those dropbox files not readable on that device, all you have to do

I think the problem is quite timely. In an early-stage startup, everyone needs to be a generalist. As the team grows, generalists need to evolve into domain-accountable roles. For instance, my team starts with just me. I needed to push a fu
