No you're definitely not alone. Most of the people I know in the tech and creative industries rarely use their optical drive, downloading instead and viewing media through consoles/players connected to their TV. I assume that they won't hav

True, but it's intimidating when a large part of the class has already had years of experience.

I think it's odd that the NPR story didn't touch upon the fact that IV is backed by some of the biggest players, like Microsoft, Apple, eBay, Google, to name a few.

"Also there are studies that women tend to underestimate their skills while men tend to overestimate them which might also be relevant." In general, men have far more pressure to be confident than women do.

My dad has been a doctor for over thirty years and the most stress he's had to deal with on a weekly basis is filling out paperwork.

As one of the designers of a major news organization redesign, it's very nice to do a pretty page but to honestly think you can get away with no ads is a not only a losing battle but one that doesn't take the needs of the client seriously.

Having to wait six years for a solution is ridiculous. In the same situation, I probably would've just moved out.

I'd likely use this if it were a module on my sites, like the G+ support tool.

I'm not going to equate my experience with everyone else but when I looked at why I switched from one service to another, it actually does relate to the strategies that 'don't work.' Why I switched from Yahoo Mail to GMail: #1, #3 Why I swi

"During March 2010, I sent messages to around 400 people." If I had to spend that much time writing messages, I'd rather just volunteer my time at a non-profit, join a club, or attend some sort of meetup.com meetup to get to know people in

Hear hear. When G+ came out I dropped my Facebook account. Due to the low activity on G+, I resorted to... doing stuff with other people in real life, such as volunteering and going to meetups.com meetups. And my real friends not near me ke

I suffer the same thing. I wonder if it's just finding the right project to code.

That's funny because I remember reading a HN post about how the startup scene is rough in LA. http://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=2775317

Well if it makes you feel any better, a friend and I started another service that hopes to give people more control over the quality of their front page. We literally just released started inviting people to the site today. If you'd like an

I would be so down for number one. How annoying is it to go to your seat and have the overhead compartment seriously packed.

Wouldn't a MBP with an SSD be faster (quad core and all)?

"I must be the only one that doesn't mind going through the TSA screening." Probably. Lineups at the airport can be a lot longer than 2 minutes because of the slow pace of screening. And frisking children and the elderly? I feel so much saf

Well the Macbook at the store probably don't have SSD's installed. I would assume that if I replaced the HD with an SSD, the MBP would be faster because then it'd have the processing advantage.

Not to mention startups compete with jobs on Wall Street for top devs. Though I guess it'd be like starting something here in SV and competing for talent with Facebook/Google. The advantage that NYC has is it has vastly more top shelf desig

Well that depends. straightline.co.jp has plenty of Japanese websites that have a variety of visual designs.

If someone made a Photoshop equivalent except faster, more stable, with only the core functional elements (thus, no need for slew of filters, 3d, video layers) and intuitive UI, I'd switch. And I've used Photoshop for... god it must be like

I've been trying to do good photographs of startup entrepreneurs in their environments (office, walking in the Bay Area, etc.) The purpose is to have a story that's more focused on the person rather than strictly the business. I kind of tho
