Yeah, that's the stuff that happens when you make dodgy decisions based on how much of a maverick you think you are - and then look to invest in other 'seeming mavericks' like you. Theranos is only the first, as more and more

really disappointing that the app developer doesn't even condescend to replying to posts on his ShowHN posting

I like the idea, but I think that you'd really be able to convince a customer of the value proposition by including a nice demo of the stuff that's behind the 'sign up' page

I am appalled that the combination of Digital + Print costs as much or less than the digital subscription alone. NYTimes, WSJ all seem to forget the basic principles of economics which dictate a certain amount of price elasticity is essenti

This is a very cool swiss-army knife for the abundance of cab aggregators in India. Am gonna give it a whirl the next time I need transportation. Because I've not used it yet, I'm curious as to whether you're using deep-linki

Being an NLP guy myself, I think this is a big BIG BIG deal and was really hoping that it would be Apple that would provide a way to hook into the voice recognition interface back when they were talking about their watch. :-( Voice recognit

At the core of it - you're going to be leading engineers. A lot of how this leading happens depending on the organizational makeup of the firm you're going to. (This is super super important!!!). So figure out the organizational c

So I dunno if you've read Daniel Gilbert's (only) book - but he does kinda say (to paraphrase) that people get tougher when you bang them around. The only danger is that some people don't. My school got the reputation of the

to what you're saying - I would think jogging would be a prime example of 'network' effect. If you head out to Beverly Hills, you don't see anyone jogging except the dog walkers. But in certain parts of say, Hyderabad in

This sounds very cool. Any chance you could draw a flowchart diagram to help people (like me) who have no prior experience with AWS IoT? (like, which device is responsible for generating LAT-LONG, etc)

Actually, today's speech recognizers are really good and ones like Google's have accuracy >90%. So writing a speech recognizer ourselves with 50% accuracy and training it endlessly without ever reaching Google SR's accurac

if you're curious to try this out - I'd recommend you sign up (free), download the IPA file (also for free) and try it out (also free!). To help speed up your ios dev, we've also posted all the libraries you'd need on Gi

Hi Everybody! I'm part of the team and we built Leova to make adding fully-functional natural language interfaces to your home-brewn or production-scale apps would be super easy. Integration is (supposed to be) super simple and deploym
