If I remember correctly (read this book years ago) the argument with the hockey players was that a few months of difference between kids makes a big difference with their physical strength and development and a few months of difference betw

Well then maybe the way the market is only certain people can get paid that much (just like a random developer becoming the next Bill Gates). Also I said artist not musician, Bieber got to where he's at not for being a talented musicia

'New artists' always had it hard, I don't think it was easy to get your record printed and distributed all over the world, at least now people can find them easier with youtube, spotify and other services without a big risk (

I don't know how I feel about the reward amount since probably it equates to 2 months of the salary (I'm estimating around 100k/year) of a facebook dev. Depends on how much time you spend searching for an exploit, the real re

The thing is that people have different ways of learning, some are good with reading and understanding, others need hands-on and others like to hear it. The bad part is that our education system is currently tailored to an specific type of

So to ace your YC interview one must be empathetic and focus on the user. This is also the advice to give to somebody that wants to deliver a great product, I don't like to think in terms of what to do to get more investors and VC funding i

Good info-graphic but if you think about it how many people started in the same position and did not progress at all? This just proves that a billionaire can come from anywhere.

Yes but instead of nitpicking to criticize maybe we could use the same skill to filter out the bad parts and get to the good parts. I'm not saying I agree with the way the author presented the information, he thought it was the best way but

Weird to see all the comments criticizing the mention of Steve Jobs and the use of the word parable instead of people just concentrating on what this post is about, just an anecdote that may or not relate to your leadership style. Who cares

I've always seen constraints as a way of propelling creativity. Constraints basically stop us from wondering about "what if I had.." or "if only I had.." and make us think in "with my current resources how can I achieve something?". This p

At first sight it may be useless (in this form anyway) but I've read that people tend to spend more by having credit cards because you don't have a physical reminder of how much money you have left, it is just a digital number. I'm predicti

The trick for great transitions and effects is that they should not be noticeable to the user. This can make or break a great app and at the end of the day this extra sugar should not be the main focus of the app rather help achieve the mai

Don't forget some companies are big and old enough to no longer have the initial vision and can differentiate into other markets with employees that are leaders like Steve. Maybe a good example would be Eisner with Disney

after some digging around the JS, I noticed the sound is completely random except the volume which is based on the quantity of bitcoins var maxBitcoins=1000;var minVolume=0.3;var maxVolume=0.5;var volume=bitcoins/(maxBitcoins/(maxVolume-mi

Online video isn’t about how good it looks, it’s about how good it is. People who make online video are much better at making online video than people who make TV shows When people go to youtube the bar is set quite low, they don't expect
