Could also have been a better title. What title did you use? The repost improved on original page title in a small but useful way. There is a lot of value generated by a good title.

Agreed. I like how JWZ put it: http://jwz.livejournal.com/147024.html?thread=760144#t760144 What's a "de facto standard?" It's what we call a standard. What's a de jure standard?" It's what we call a wish.

USDA beef grading is assigned to the whole carcass, so you can get any part of the cow in prime. Only cuts where USDA rating correlates with quality are typically marketed as prime/choice, typically just loin and rib-eye. You do see things

Good point. In general, in the VC backed business, the interests of employees tend to be aligned with interests of VCs not with interests of founders. Both VCs and employees need an exit and both make too little money to matter on a small
