That's how /r/trees came to be. There are other examples. Yes, that is how it works.

Going to be hard to reproduce that bug since they are totally random long tail questions, but I have it happen a lot too FWIW.

Trust in the brand is negated for me by the fact that if this doesn't go well, I know they'll just shut it down or neglect it in a year or two. You want to know your registrar will be there in 10 years.

The main thing is just clutter. Google Domains has a very simple user interface. It only has the stuff you need. NameCheap and every other registrar has a million links everywhere and all this random crap you never use, making it hard to fi

NameCheap and GoDaddy are two expensive options. There are many registrars where you can get .com's for under $10. $12 is really expensive...

There are public companies in the industry. All are highly risky/volatile stocks, though. Nothing like a blue chip company yet, which you could trust to steadily rise in tandem with the industry.

I have a friend who graduated from college a couple years ago with a liberal arts degree then went straight into Hackbright (women's only, I think). I did not have high hopes for her success but she actually landed a job pretty quickly

If you want to found a startup, I can think of a lot better ways to spend 2 years and $100k than getting an MBA.

Genius ranks very highly for many, many searches. Even without adding 'lyrics' to the search.

As somebody who hired developers at that time, it was far different from today. You could put a job listing up on Craigslist and have an inbox full of 100+ developers, many of whom had great resumes at name brand companies, who were willing

Which would work for a version of two until they and everybody else realized Googles proprietary version is far superior, and they pay Google a licensing fee for every install, because they have no other choice. I don't think Google is

Android could. If they spun that off into it's own company it would be worth tens of billions, minimum. It's headed toward a mobile OS monopoly. It would be difficult to overstate how valuable that is. AdSense could as well. They

You might want to let their investors (who include Y Combinator) know - because they keep pouring money into Quora at ever higher valuations.

If we are, it should be called the Facebook Bubble. After their IPO when the stock lost half it's value, there was a severe market correction in VC as well. It got a lot harder to raise money. Now that the stock is up like 400% from it

Are you creating new threads asking questions in those niche subs or are you using the search function for old threads?

by arfliw 12y ago
Does anybody know of a sub where stuff like this link would make the front page? And techmeme type stuff (fundraising etc)? I can't find anything like that. It certainly isn't /r/technology or /r/startups

He hasn't, beyond his 'reddit is city-state' thing.

I'm a heavy user of both and never made a connection between them. Them are very different I think. However one thing Quora does way, way, way, way better is your feed (home page on reddit). It's really smart and accurate and unea

/r/nba is also awesome, along with literally every individual NFL and NBA team sub I have ever visited. Most are quick to ban opposing team fans for anything resembling trolling though. Tread lightly.

It's not that nobody cares, it's that all that you need to have a page is 'notability' and notability is defined as having media articles written about you. If I can get the New York Times and one other publication to wr

You are technically correct that you can't just login to your broker one day and dump 5% onto the market - but there are ways to sell that amount of stock without crashing the price. A Secondary Offering is one way. It's basically
