That would be a helluva tourist attraction; imagine if you could go over cliffs, under water, through caves, etc.

Usually as soon as they've hit the market and haven't made the sales, revenue or numbers they expected to make. At this point a decision to pivot may be made, along with minor tweaking. It all relates to the metric being measured, which is

Not when you're selling your stake in the company. $200 million is a helluva lot of money. They're tabling offers left and right, shoulda woulda coulda.

Hi friend, having more "passion" is unfortunately not a real advantage. Pretty much everyone will say they're harder working and more passionate when trying to hustle for a job, vc money, a partner, whatever. What's more important is tangib

Its cheap if you VC/angel money backing you, but if you're just trying to get an MVP off the ground, the upfront costs are prohibitive.

I understand the principle behind your opinion. But fact is, there are probably dozens of not hundreds of people probably applying for the same jobs. I can see them being inundated by requests, and simply passing me over because they can in

Funny and novel, why not adopt the loseit or loseit model and make people put up money? If they complete their task, they keep the money. If they don't, it goes to charity. (Might be kinda complicated and more than you're willing to do).

Hey boss, I worked on a similar site a while back called Audiolizer ( http://www.audiolizer.com ). Pretty much the same thing, we used the Youtube API for songs. Its a pretty crowded space, so don't expect to make big money or traffic out o

Canada is probably the leading supplier for marijuana in the United States. Apparently exchange weed for cocaine and / or guns.

Yep, fixed. The site has gotten way more traffic than we expected it to. *And by fixed, I mean I'm watching over the database with a baseball bat until my programming partner gets home lol.

Yeah, but you have to look at the big picture. Not everyone has friends with licenses. Your still doing a favor for a friend and breaking the law, meaning you deserve a premium on the resale (not that you'd take anything from a friend).

Way to be ignorant of fact and close minded. Also, there's absolutely nothing about the site that encourages drug use at all. Implicitly or explicitly. Feel free to show me if you find something that does.

Not entirely true. If I can't get a license, I have to buy off the black market; meaning I have to go through dealers who traffic under the risk of arrest and prosecution. That creates the premium price that drugs have today, everywhere. Th

Importing from Canadian grow ops is probably the name of the game along border states. Retail price is ~$200/oz in Ontario vs ~$400/oz in New York. Oddly enough however, British Columbia and Washington state have similar prices. WSH either

Exactly, we aren't incorporating the volume discount when we scale up smaller quantities of weed. This is because we really just don't know what the average margins of sales between different quantities. We could display the averages in eac

Not everyone can get licenses to purchase from dispensaries, so a dispensary's price is not necessarily market price. Theres still a "black" market so to speak; of people who buy it illegally.
