You made my day. But Google obviously doesn't know the meaning of 'innards'. Edit: Too bad your joke was so good it ruined HN for the rest of the day.

And I was beginning to think reading your essays and HN comments was sufficient to authoritatively reason about your motives.

I guess the (surprisingly) restrained reception to 'How to be an angel investor' forced pg to explicitly point out its key takeaway for founders and write a whole new essay for it. He just doesn't stop trying to do good - a different kind o

This is great for people who buy Kindle books from Amazon. But Amazon does not let you sync all the content on your Kindle - it leaves out, for instance, the free/public domain stuff that you didn't buy from Amazon. Non-Amazon content is

This is not surprising. The concept of customer service in India is very different from what we accept as the norm in the States. Indian businesses have always treated consumers like crap. The socio-economic reasons for this are beyond the

I found Sabeer Bhatia's interview one of the less useful ones in the book, though it was still worth reading. He sounded too negative about VCs, became a Google fanboy for no reason multiple times during the conversation, and gave too much

Not quite. Balsamiq has significantly more UI controls and buttons. Mockups aren't Twiddla's focus, so they will never fill the same need that Balsamiq fills (and vice-versa).

Maybe it's just me, but this article felt a lot like something I would see on valleywag. Just replace tech companies with tech individuals. There is, of course, shallow technical discussion about how users are counted; even a comScore chart

Great ^ Job. Some suggestions: Add 'in progress'/'started' as a project status. This would affect some other features as well, for example filtering the project list. But it would allow people to find new projects more efficiently. Also add

Why not write a journal article and broadcast on Twitter? This surgery doesn't seem to be groundbreaking research worthy of a new journal article; it's just that enough people didn't know about removing tumors without taking the entire ki
