Congrats on the launch! Love the idea of speeding up WP sites via static pages. Do we need to transfer our domain to you as well or just the Wordpress installation? Just posted to PH as well - https://www.producthunt.com/pos

My biggest takeaway is that people can have vastly different experiences in "the same product". Just as liberal and conservative Facebook users saw very different streams of content and news, men and women. I don't check Inst

All of the last 3 companies I've worked at in NYC (Percolate, Etsy, and a seed stage startup) have hired multiple engineers straight out of bootcamps. They often were hired into junior roles but if they proved themselves, they would ad

I'm sure there's a lot more to this business than we can know from this fairly sunny writeup, but always good to hear about businesses that succeed outside of tech on HN. A couple business lessons I took away from this account: 1)

Edit: I watched the video. The moderator goes on and on and the "let her speak please" sounds very polite. This is a painfully frustrating reminder that women get talked over by men. It's one thing to have one panelist talk o

Can someone explain more of the backstory behind Youexec? I can't tell if their sparse, name-dropping landing page is brilliant or a marketing hack. And I've got a marketing background so that's saying a lot!

I mainly read that as a statement about the team composition (I'm sure they wanted to say that "everyone" was continuing, but "nearly all" is the best they could do) rather than about who was excited about the missi

Author of the article here. It's a bit more complicated for both the driver and the seller. Drivers have to coordinate pick up and drop off of passengers, which is a pain, especially in LA. On the other hand, passengers getting dropped

I loved Pebble - I was a fan from the first Kickstarter. I found the devices comfortable (loved the band!) and I think it was a brilliant move to use e-ink on the watches, which saved enormous amounts of battery life. I like to wear my watc

Box spent a lot of money on sales and marketing acquiring customers and so IPO'd after in 2014 after being at a net loss of $168M over the course of 2013. Levie had to give up a lot of equity to justify raising more money. More in this

Speed is the denominator that any progress or success is measured against. More progress in less time is a better thing. Another way of thinking about it is: what company would you rather invest in, one that hit $1M in annual revenues in 1

Also since I've been on HN for a long time, I know there will be questions about the price. Yes, you could organize this yourself. It'd be a lot of work though and leave you with little time to actually work on your side project.

My 2 cents (as a former gymnast and now omnivorously active person) is that many people see exercise as a chore or something they have to do. If you want to have the benefits of exercise in your life, you have to find a way to enjoy it. If

This. It's like asking "when do you find time to program?" Once you start seeing yourself as a programmer, that question doesn't make sense any more. Same is true when you start seeing yourself as an active person. There
