Adam, great to see you on HN. I assume you're the same ABS that founded calc.org. I always love seeing people from the TI Calculator community doing well. - Harper

The point of a standup is to coordinate team communication in batches and not interrupt people at random times. We always finish it up in less than 15 minutes and then small groups meet afterwards about talking points.

Definitely not. I've got kids and was only able to quit my job and start working full time as CTO of my startup after we raised seed funding. That being said, an A,B, and C round is different. Seed should give you enough runway to s

Ahh. I remember doing lots of TI82/83 calculator programming in Z80 and never considering using a C to Z80 compiler since it was so suboptimal. C was considered slow and a memory hog. Most of these (other than the sprite routine) a

LOL! This is exactly why Wall St can't make early stage investments. Clearly these are speculative bets on Wealthfront being as large as a mutual fund. The fact that the author doesn't see this means they're overvaluing a mu

First, I do weekly 1x1s with my directs and give feedback and regularly do career planning in them. You can't wait to have these types of conversations only once or twice a year. Performance Reviews were definitely not a waste of time

Yeah. I'm a big fan of MailChimp, but this is a clear case of survivorship bias. We have a ton of detailed reporting (CrunchBase, edgar.gov, startup accelerators, Mattermark, etc) on VC backed companies but very little on non VC. How

Congrats Justin and team! I love seeing this game finally get released. A lot of hard work went in to putting it together. Plus, it's great to see a former TI Calculator hacker bringing back the nostalgia of old games. Long live Jo

This might be happening because Angelist is free and has great candidates.

I did the things you recommend (CS, MBA, 2y traveling) but learned much more running a startup. You really just need experience with autonomy and exposure to smart people.

MS Office (specifically Excel) is not a shitty product. There's a reason why it has a larger monopoly with finance types Wall Street than Google does with search. Power users can quickly build powerful financial models with it.

If this turns out to be the successor to smartphones, then these comments will look like people laughing at the Instagram acquisition.

Your local insurance salesperson probably has less bargaining power than Zenefits, so your rates with them could be higher.

This also solves the peak load problem, since you can pay for power at night and run off of your giant Tesla battery in the garage during the day.

The speed of that dynamic scaling sprite routine is ridiculous. I'm very impressed. I've written 4x4, 8x8, 12x12 and 16x16 sprite routines on the 83, but had never considered dynamic scaling. My hat's off to Hayleia and Ba
