She may not have been making a lot of money, and I'm sure she did the best she could for her customers (returned dresses or money). If it was her full-time job, Y-Combinator isn't going to work well for her if she has to also manage a compa

It helps a litte but not completely. Women may be the same size and measurements, but a completely different shape (men have this problem too, right?) What we need is technology that can 3D scan an item and virtually drape it. Then I can ge

Shipping labels is something I would pay a subscription for, as well as early access to newly received clothes. Try as hard as I might to buy beautiful things that should last me a lifetime, I am excited to try this service out. What will b

I'm not so sure. If I am in a room with 6 people who are not talking about something I am interested in or feel I cannot engage in, I am unstimulated and want to leave. If I am in a room with 6 academics or other kinds of highly interesting

You could set your own cap by monitoring on your server, and shut down services as needed. Maybe a new startup idea here for someone? We monitor our bandwidth here, and while we haven't had to deactivate services it's something we're prepar

There's a real problem here that comes down to the status-quo of the office. Imagine your office of 100 people is 50% male/female, and a nice sampling of racial groups, sexualities and ages (I've had the fortune to work in such a place). Wh

I've run a couple of tests and the email to pick up the file is not being received. If the user has to be logged in already and have the software downloaded, it's not clear at all. Expectation is that an email is received to notify of a fil

Ok, I had to laugh at 'spend 20% of your time on upgrading and refactoring'. That will never happen, especially in a small company where engineers are focused on innovation above all costs. At the end of the day, we're so busy pushing out n

This is perfect timing, am embarking on a new UI. Just a note: the payment page has really light text that is hard to read, you may wish to consider making the font color a little darker. Otherwise I enjoyed the payment process, rather uniq

As another woman in tech I read this hesitantly and find I don't agree with the argument she is making here. While my workplace is also dominated with men I have learnt to manage communication differences and stand on the merit of my work.

Perhaps Rose is hired as a fall-guy: take the helm of Google+ which is failing and be the public face of it's fall (kind of joking but I guess time will tell). I'm wondering why Google doesn't buy Pinterest to be honest, it makes a lot more

For good sfx you really need raw source material to get the physical properties sounding realistic. This can mean recording your own or starting from a sound library. Perhaps part of the problem with making sfx from scratch is that you need

Independent films can work this way: cast/crew will not get paid, in return for a percentage should it be successful. However it's not possible to do this indefinitely as said crew gets tired of working for free after a while (much like any

Right, so that effectively keeps me out of the good-phone market. It really is a shame that they can't make a smaller phone (iPhone size is ok but smaller would be better). I'd be a customer for life.

Does this apply to their small phones? Perhaps it is because of reading HN that I am of the perception that only the larger more feature-full phones are maintained well (or perhaps just that my friends who have bought these just got the b

I would love to start using this now on a new project. Is there any idea yet of pricing / paid features? I'm hesitant to spend time on a new API only to find out in a couple of months it's outside of our budget.
