My understanding is few companies have as many class action lawsuits against it as Apple. Perhaps Microsoft is the only one who has more. An old customer of mine is a lawyer specializing in class-action lawsuits, last time I talked to him a

I worked out a system two years ago for doing something like this, but with the idea of networking all of the commercial parking lots in San Francisco together, and creating algorithms & equipment to allow for either instantaneous vari

This from the municipality that had to put a network engineer in prison in order to get access to their DWDM equipment? Then again, parking is like a $125m per year profit center for San Francisco, so they're more likely to get parking coll

One quick suggestion, ask your doctor about Provigil. It's sort of a wonder drug for people with ADHD, Sleep Apnea, Narcolepsy, and a few other issues.

Sounds like a great time to become an angel investor in the market that you're familiar with. Join an angel group, spend 6 months learning your way around before you make an investment. Spend the first five years making small investments, b

Having watched how developers (even several from HN) completely mis-understood John Allspaw's talk about business needs & deployments, I now imagine part of the next generation of HN start-up types will begin offering $60k salaries to e

Over the past 12 hours I've watched the rating on this comment go from 0 to -2 to +3 back to -1 Apparently we're divided on how we view Mr. Stallman.

You might talk to @chrislunt about this. I know that he went through the ringer evaluating options with his last start-up, Nombray.

Speaking from intimate experience, there might not be a surer way, short of infidelity, to get a divorce, than bootstrapping a company with your spouse. It's an expensive mistake, however, that you won't repeat.

For me it's the lack of uplink speed that drives me insane. As heavily data driven as we've become with 22megapixel digital cameras, HD video cameras, and then just our normal backup requirements, I would be happy with 100mbps up, and 2mbps

Hostel part 2. Because the heroine of that movie is incredibly goal-oriented. By the end of the movie she becomes the shrewd, decisive, powerful woman she was meant to be. Oh and also that movie about the clash, Rudeboy. But that's mainly b

Don't get me wrong, I'm not anti-facebook. I think it's just as much of a case of silicon snake oil as the rest of the silly social networking sites out there. Facebook hasn't made my life better, it basically became a place where my annoyi

Social networking isn't about a conversation, that was 2007's cute mantra. Social networking has devolved into a self-promotion platform whose only existence is to advertise. The conversation ended years ago. Don't worry, though, the bubbl

Twitter has taken in what, $160m in funding over 5 rounds. Thanks to liquidation preferences, it is probably a safe bet to say that if Twitter gets sold in 1 year for $5bn, an employee who started yesterday would see enough to put a down p

In 1999 I was dismayed by the sheer number of otherwise incapable people who staffed the various startups I slaved away for. They had titles like "Director Of Marketing", "VP of Communications", etc. They were opportunists looking for a jo

Free sounds like a bad idea to me. Yet another band-aid on the festering wound that the west has created while raping Africa of it's resources. Instead, we should help build an economy. For a while I've been considering trying to get a gran

"publishing deal" is a warm and fuzzy way to say "monopoly". Developers should be able to sell their software for a platform without being forced into using one specific distribution channel. The App Store is Microsoft's wet dream, even the
