This might be a sign that you have a tendency towards perfectionism. This is not the worst problem you can have and is manageable. I suggest working on new features as WIP pull requests and have others review the code when it's feature

I am sure that depends on your leverage and the terms. The equity can be used as leverage to avoid personal liability in the case where your track record is not strong enough to defer bills for free.

A top law firm took 0.25% pre-funding with no retainer in a previous startup I launched, and with that they agreed to delay all bills until a funding event so they took on risk for that price. His ask is way too high and it would in my opin

What constitutes a staple-thesis varies a bit though. My advisor required 3 top-tier papers in a well-defined topic. Papers in other topics or workshop papers does not count.

Adding extra car lanes will not solve the traffic problem in dense areas. See the pictures that compares public transit density with cars: http://www.humantransit.org/2012/09/the-photo-that-explains-... Maybe if

Also, you are unlikely to survive the hard work of a startup if you are not there for intangible reasons. My rule of thumb is that I will join if I believe in the vision and want to work with the team in the culture we would create together

That is assuming the same type of cars and same driving patterns will be used. I actually think cars have a horrible user experience so there is plenty of room for innovation and improvement; you are stuck in a seat, can't move your le

Have you had a look at Gnome 3? - http://www.gnome.org/gnome-3/ I find their aesthetic pleasing and minimal, and stuff generally gets out of my way. To me it feel Mac-ish in its simplicity.

Ask for the same terms as the founders, and ask for a big enough stake that you have something left after a prospective Series B round assuming 20-25% watering down in each round. That makes it so that the founders have to do to themselves

I agree that it is a red flag that the CTO on one hand admits that the co-founder is valuable in the 3-6 months it takes to raise a round, and on the other hand asks him to leave after fundraising. At the very least this seems to indicate t

You need to sit down in a room with the CEO and CTO, and have the CTO describe his concerns and then you can all resolve the issue together. For the sake of the culture of the company you can not let this slide as back-room talk, as that wo

Or it could be a sign that the lack of male teachers in our primary education system somehow has an effect on male student performance? Primary school teachers used to be mostly male so the teacher gender balance has clearly changed over ti

It was, but the way they achieved it was by reusing components Jolla developed for wayland. As it stands I believe their reason for developing Mir is non-technical. It might be that developing Mir increases the company's perceived valu

Wayland is used in the Sailfish OS shipped on Jolla phones. It also seem to have traction on Raspberry Pi, mostly because X really sucks on their low-powered hardware.

From what I understand systemd can optionally store a copy of the logs on a remote server. The key to modify the logs on the remote server is changed in such a way that even if a system is compromised the log copy on the remote system can n

I agree that normal people are generally not evil, but sociopaths can very much be indistinguishable from some particularly evil movie-characters. I worked with a sociopath in the past and have studied it in literature, and a sociopath by d
