Thinking that getting a good lawyer will get you investment is fallacy. The only thing that gets you an investor is showing traction and having a business model (at some point in the future, at least.) That said, having a good lawyer is imp

"As a computer science student in IIT Mumbai puts it if programming requires a post graduate level of knowledge of complex algorithms and programming methods..." That's such a load of crap... (And I say that as another CS alumni from IIT Mu

Very well said. That site is a lot of fun to use... People who think they are prophetic regarding consumer internet ideas are kidding themselves. The only way to know whether an idea will work or not is to just go ahead and TRY IT. And Paul

There's more to this than meets the eye. Making it sound like this is Google's fault is obviously stupid and I'm sure the folks at Forbes know that. This is more of a give-Google-bad-press campaign by some incompetent media people.

The essay says "You should not start a startup which requires a lot of money". But some startups genuinely require much more money than webapps do. What should a person do in that case, other than being at the mercy of the investors?

Awesome post. Thanks! Let us know your Mac experiences as well... I got my Dell desktop pre-loaded with Vista. Reading your post, I am glad I installed and dual booted into Ubuntu right away. Also, about 10 days later, I erased the Vista p

the post just makes for a racy headline. nothing else. the sentiment is correct, but the analogies couldn't have been crappier. all lotto players are equal. all enterpreneurs aren't!

I have no idea what features this app from Google has, but from what I have seen so far, Zenter kicks ass! It's not about which app has "more" features, it's about how effectively one can present using such an app.

i think DHH's opinion is fair. without profiling, one really doesn't know what the hell is happening. and by being "slower", i just don't know what the comparison point is. sure, ruby is slower as a language - but for the complete applicati

I'm sure if they hadn't plagiarized the YC form, they would have asked you to submit a crappy Word document.

There is at least an order-of-magnitude difference in startup-stress vs. normal-job-stress. Same holds for the energy needed to overcome it.

Sadly, no. It should be enough to provide a competitive salary to all the H-1B employees of the company, for about a year or so... So, an order of magnitude more than YC funding.
