Invoicing does not scale? I bet if you write down a list of world's largest, most scaled out services that charge monthly, most of them would be using invoicing as the main mechanism. In India, don't you think invoicing scales for

I don't see how unsecured CC is good for us. Credit card fraud raises national debt, makes your economy reliant on derivatives such as insurance and in the end you fall down. Maybe US economy could sustain derivative based approach bec

I think this service should have one-click deploy to other Node.js platforms, at least Heroku, Beanstalk and Bluemix. I have a feeling that their concept would be most useful on ipad/mobile. But for that to be useful there needs to be

Not to nitpick, but for a long time, to use a Mac with VGA you had to buy an adapter. Same for HDMI. There is a case that can be made on including this accessory in the box, but VGA cannot be part of that argument. Not for a Mac user. Inste

The whole point of the CA system is that there is no place for personal opinion on which CA to trust, as long as they make it to your operating system. The audits they go through far trumps the hand waiving you just did.

No, no, no. The link they send requires Aadhaar verification, your will get an OTP, which you will give to the agency. They can get the copy of the document only if they provide the right OTP. It is the same way you are logging in to this w

I investigated further. It works fine on Mac and Windows 8.1. Apparently your operating system doesn't support the CA yet. I don't have Ubuntu, but I do have a linux based system, and it fails there too. They are using a relativel

For people having issues with CA - It is not the CA that is the problem (it is not a famous CA, but is known, at least by Chrome), the problem is that they probably shortened the domain too late and are still using the old configuration. Us

I always wondered why Google didn't spin off some of this as open source projects. It seems to me that the bottleneck wasn't the hosting, but the man hours being wasted on them. Google could have reduced their involvement to provi

I don't think that's true. I think even on-the-napkin stage ideas also can use a lot of YC input to drive development in right direction. I believe it is important to at least have a prototype at least a few weeks before demo day

Nothing happened for "It's a 5 billion dollar market and we need only 1% of it." I think they should work on incorporating phrases too. Regardless, this is insanely great.

It won't work that way. Nexus 4 was not sold through a carrier, Google sold it unlocked through their website.

You know, that is a valid option. When iPhone 4's telephone broke because of the "grip of death" antenna issue, Steve Jobs himself came out, apologized, offered a free bumper case to mitigate the issue. Compare that to this.

There is also another employee who marked a disfunctional telephony on a phone as "Priority-small." I think we're seeing a pattern here.

Xiaomi's MIUI is not much different from other OEMs offering their own layer of UI over Android. It is in no way a third OS. I doubt here if Fred ever used a Xiaomi phone. If not, it is weird at best that a comment about it's futu
