I'd love to see "all weather" type stickers for outdoor use. Not sure if anyone manufactures those yet, but that would be awesome. It would also be great if the customization (putting a logo or QR code on them) could be done online.

Aaron is quite well known on YC but it's not surprising that many people don't know about him. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Aaron_Swartz Having known him through his writings for several years, I can vouch that he is not a troll.

I went to the first startup school in Cambridge with my then girlfriend (now wife!). Flew to NYC for cheap tickets and took the chinatown bus to Boston. I was already working at a cool startup then but it started me along a path of several

All Google self driving cars have a human driver who can take control at any time. I don't know if the human was driving the car when this accident occurred, but so far there is no evidence supporting the notion that Google is lying to the

It does seem like great news. Quality of life in India has definitely gotten better. Actually the growing economy has made entrepreneurship more lucrative, allowing folks to make enough money to be in the upper middle class with a startup.

It seems very likely to me that in the information they gave us, AirBnB was just relaying the information the police gave them. It's very likely the police told AirBNB to give them all the evidence they had so they could use it to prosecute

It's happening on the home page, when I click through from the link posted here, if I try to click back to get back to the discussion, it doesn't work. Do you have a redirect script on the home page that could be causing it by accident?

It is not surprising, which is why I said "as expected". I would like to see how the numbers compare for hot cities in Israel vs. the U.S., and I also think we should obviously try to raise the national number. I am not in the valley mysel

Zipcar's hourly pricing is so low because the rental for these extra 'waiting' hours is built in. If you are driving at 60 miles per hour and the car gives 20 miles per gallon, the cost of driving for one hour is over $10 at current gas pri
