This. I use HN only for the front page and I occasionally upvote or downvote comments. I'd be totally willing to have one link from the /newest in a different color on the front-page and if it's good I would upvote it. The ac

As an aside, I think the new design is perfect. Good job on iterating on the feedback!

Wasn't it possible to create the exact apps from scratch? You get to pick the technology you like, you don't have to waste time understanding and refactoring those stupid classes.. Sometimes, from scratch means faster, easier, che

I'm surprised nobody suggested to raise money. You can then pay yourself a good salary AND work on your startup. A MVP with some traction and a solid business model is all you need.

With experience as an entrepreneur and system engineer, I think you would fit a senior position perfectly. Don't you think you could teach a thing or two to younger ones? :-) Otherwise, I'd suggest pushing daily code on github to

I love to read a quick 10min tutorial written specifically for experienced devs. Example: http://ycombinator.com/arc/tut.txt There's a really good one for Python but couldn't find it. I like those tutorials b

Dunno, it seems like people are over-thinking it. Adam is definitely a great addition to the alumni and if he believes he can get enough value of YC, why not?

Yeah, us geeks are very good at dismissing amazing potential businesses. I mean, why would anyone use Dropbox when there's svn and git!

I rarely ever use classes anymore. My life is complicated enough, I like my code to be simpler. I used to be proud of my complex classes hierarchy and clever designs.. now simple objects and mostly functions. I don't and won't arg

Also, releasing something open-source isn't as straightforward as it may seem unless you've started that way. Think about all the internal libraries that developers might have used or all the security or licensing aspect of it. T

I wish I'll be able to understand how the brain really work before dying. I have the feeling that a deep understand of the brain will open scary and amazing opportunities in AI.

I have a hard time explaining this idea, so please bear with me. As a founder and hacker, I want to know how my users use my web and mobile apps. But I haven't found an intuitive and dead-simple way to do it. Mixpanel and google analyt

Google map that can show me parking? I'm driving to a coffee place, great, but then it's 10min turning around the place looking for parking. Ideally it should drive me in real-time to a place where I can park.

Fully agree. I wanted to recommend Django for a friend to get started in web development but it's such a hassle to get started, I'd rather have him start with flask or even PHP..

It's a recurrent theme to see somewhat illegal startups becoming massive and then adjusting for the laws. I.e. youtube, airbnb, rapgenius. That's one kind of unfair advantage that startups have over bigger organisations where they

Ha, yes well, I guess "Airbnb for food" might not be the best explanation then. The pain point I was focusing on was to provide good food at cheap price for neighbors, less about "Living an experience with another family&quot

I would say it's a bit different, it's more akin to going to a restaurant and grabbing something to it, rather than eating with the family.
