They are not some magic drug like Limitless, but they are closer to that than to placebos. Do you not notice a difference in your mental and physical state when you take caffeine? Caffeine is a Nootropic and it works, but Caffeine is just t

I am surprised how closed-minded HNers are being towards this topic. Thank you for having John write this, I have been working on an article on Nootropics for a while now, but the topic is so deep and complex that it's hard to sum up in a s

Unfortunately, companies are not legally allowed to discuss or mention in their marketing materials the "Nootropic" effects of these substances due to the FDA. This pushes a lot of the reliable information regarding Nootropics into forums a

Many people take 4.8 grams of Piracetam twice per day. I personally think that is a bit much, and I think 600-800mg two times a day is optimal. I'm surprised to hear of you getting sick and vomiting as that is a a rare side-effect of raceta

There are already many students who are prescribed Ritalin, Concerta, Adderal etc, and these drugs give those students an unfair edge. How are normal students supposed to compete with their peers who are on amphetamines?

There is a lot of evidence supporting the use of Nootropics and other related supplements. Unfortunately, due to many of the issues brought up in the article, such as the inability to patent any of these substances, there is not a lot of di

Using a similar idea is one thing, but cloning is another. They don't just take the concepts, they rip of the design as well. If you look at the Samwer's version of Fab (which is shut down now), they completely ripped off the look and feel,

There seems to be logical explanations for all of these...Pizza is the cheapest food to feed a large group of people. Caffeine is a stimulant that makes people work longer and harder. Free beer is a good way to draw people to an event and i

Word of mouth is definitely the best way to go about it. I have also had success by going through friends who work at smaller digital agencies and PR firms. Places like that sometimes lack technical people, but they have a portfolio of clie

Build a portfolio site that houses your work. If you don't have a portfolio, make some sites for your friends for free or cheap to get started. Then go to networking events, or find businesses that do not have websites, or who have really s

No, you don't get credit for additional items between when your item is added and checkout. However, if they come back to Amazon from someone else's affiliate link, and your item was already in the cart, you retain the credit.

Since you have 4 cities, you can test different prices in each. $100 sounds a bit steep for a food truck unless you can guarantee ROI for them. I think it would be smarter to just add more cities and keep the price lower. I would try someth

Funny concept. Re-arrange the layout so that the ad units are on the left and right of the photos, not all the way down on the bottom. Also, allow for tagging so that the ads are more closely related. Also, after clicking the vote, it just
