Not arguing that it is cheap, just saying that the generalization that everywhere near the coast is fast moving is incorrect. Cheaper options include Wilmington, NC, Raleigh, NC, and Asheville, NC -- I skew NC because I lived there for seve

Could not agree more. At my company, we have rejected people only to have them become huge advocates for us and send us even more good people. We usually look for a special mix of talents (some balance of CS + chemistry/materials), and

I guess I find it a bit off-putting that a blog post trying to dispel stereotypes about a geographic region stoops to saying things like "On both coasts, the pace of life is really, really high: you just go, go, go and work constantly.

My company did this. I fronted most of the money as a loan to the company (in total I want to say it was <$10k) and the company paid the loan back interest free when we had the money in the bank. I was okay with it, and my 2 cofounders p

If current investors weren't satisfied with current income, they would sell. Facebook's margins are excellent, and while I will agree their P/E ratio is high, Google's is quite near that of GE (which should have a much l

So how does this market crash? This is something I have struggled with for some time. Markets have typically crashed because public investors buy at very high prices and then the market loses faith that the future cash flows of the business

Maybe this is terribly unindy, but I actually really value All Songs Considered on NPR. They have wide coverage, and I usually find a least a track or two each week that exposes me to an excellent new album that I would not have found other

This is why, despite all the flak that MBAs/managers/product managers take around here, you need to have people who can and will take the time communicate clearly, set expectations, and iterate on a result.

Hopefully between now and then (or whenever it happens) we find a way to wirelessly charge things that does not waste 90% of the transmitted power. Maybe some variant of this: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Magne_Charge .

Andy Rachleff has advice about this: "go work for a big company and learn how the best of breed does it, then go start something when you know how and are ready." There are a few caveats to this: 1. Make sure you have a great mana

What this tells me after a cursory read is that while this is in theory possible, both hardware limitations and software ones limit the maximum sampling frequency of a gyro. As such, it is going to be incredibly difficult to recover any usa

Michael Dearing -- founder of Harrison Metal -- is one of the most thoughtful people I have ever had the opportunity to learn from. He pushed me and my team really hard, and yet somehow it always felt like he was asking some simple question

Provided the overall market and economy continue to grow in spite of short term volatility, it would happen again. If one honestly believes that the whole market is going to go down over time, then probably best to look at bonds or precious

Property prices are also tough to predict as preferences change and the general buying power of the economy changes. A major issue with the most recent housing slump is that many young people, who would be first time homebuyers, are choosin

Loved this article, mostly because of the fact that it turns much of the normal perspective on markets on its head. Rather than looking at a best case or a simulated median case, looking at a worst case is pretty cool. What would make this

I've worked a lot with liquid gallium (in semiconductors, not medicine) and it is pretty nasty stuff. It might not be very reactive, but it is extremely corrosive to other metals and can crystallize very quickly if given a seed. A quic

I think an important point that the author misses is that Medium is a blogging platform for people who don't want to fill a whole blog. I had a blog of my own and could never find the time or the content to make worth it for someone to
