What do you hope to get out of an MBA? Why do you think an MBA will help you succeed in a startup? How many successful companies do you know that were started by MBAs in the last decade? What is the opportunity cost of doing all this?

It's interesting to see at least 3 companies focused on fundraising (or crowdfunding) in this batch. Watsi ( https://watsi.org/ + http://techcrunch.com/2012/08/30/watsi/ ) and Microryza ( https://www.microryza.com/ + http://techcrunch.c

Very awesome tech! I'm really impressed -- what is the loss in terms of frames/frame size? Is data or missing parts of a shaky frame generated based on previous shots? Also, another thing that goes with shaky videos is bad or stuttering sou

Tinfoil Security ( https://www.tinfoilsecurity.com/ ) has automated scanners and seems to keep up to date with all the vulnerabilities quickly, like in case of the rails vulnerability recently.

From what I understand in terms of weight vs battery life tradeoffs, flight times are limited to about 10-15 minutes on helicopter like aircraft. That's nowhere near enough for continuous operations like those illustrated in the video.

I'd imagine that with 300 developers, a good fraction of them already use git and github for their own projects, and so they would be comfortable with using the interface. Not that SVN is a bad choice -- depending on your company's workflo
