She's an NY Times columnist writing about her start up experiences. She only has one start up, so it's the one she talks about in all her blog posts.

Do Pixelmator and Sketch 3 complement one another? I already use Pixelmator and love it. Unless mistaken, Pixelmator is like Adobe Photoshop and Sketch 3 is like Adobe Illustrator?

You really think Google would drop Google Apps for Business and Google Drive? That is really illogical. It's the future, they're not going to drop it. Dropbox is more likely to go under before Google Drive does.

imgur should shoot big and host videos. Let people upload videos without an account, just like images. Fuck YouTube and its toxic comments. imgur's comment system and quality of comments are way better.

So they wasted the time and money of a few geologists, and spent a day or more with a group of friends/family searching around the forests for a meteorite.. because of a stunt for fame? HN skeptics. The shit they say, I swear.

So the first death Tesla ever had will nullify their safety record? Ok. All the first death will do is have media go nuts, then Musk will make another blog post calling them idiots for making a big deal of 1 death in the history of Tesla, c

The negative reaction isn't because of any of that, it's because it's Facebook. Microsoft, Apple, Google, Valve, hell even Dell would have all been acceptable acquirers for most PC gamers backing the Oculus Rift.

Spoken like an investor who knows nothing about the audience. Sorry, VR was intended for PC gamers. They're not casual mobile gamers. They loathe casual games. They now loathe VR for wedding with Facebook.

Nuclear family is a rather right-wing, conservative word. Its followers do not usually support gay families, for example. Did you mean to use that term? I can tell you for certain we are NOT heading back that way. Society will only become m

I can't believe there are people here who think Google Drive could be discontinued. It's an absolutely ridiculous notion. It's like thinking pigs could fly. They might as well discontinue Gmail and Google Apps.

Well, if you had a website that cataloged and displayed the streams, much like Twitch.tv, then people can still find streams and subscribe to them in much the same way they do over at Twitch, while the site gets a cut. Additionally, broadca

Please please please let this lead to a P2P version of Twitch.tv. It would be amazing if gaming broadcasters could stream directly to their subscribers/followers, with very little latency (not the 30 second video lag Twitch adds). Broa

Also, hardware bought that had Windows XP on it would be ancient today. We're talking Pentium 4s here. Mac hardware from 2009 is still very capable for what most people use it for: office suite, email and web browser. (I could argue a

What legitimate reason does Apple have for not updating Snow Leopard? All I see is a company trying to force unnecessary hardware or software purchases on people. Most people just need a web browser and an Office suite, they don't nee

Dieting does not fail, but dieting does not work how the author thinks. For most, dieting is to maintain the status quo. Overweight or obese people drink and eat diet beverages/foods, or conform to some self-imposed diet, to maintain t

I will switch to this if it is as good as Sublime Text, but with a more open API. Sublime Text's API is too restricted, and there's a ton of things I want in Sublime Text that IDEs have.. but I don't want a full-blown IDE. Ta

PG never replies to these, why not just say "Ask HN" instead of link-baiting, since that's the real audience?
