True, that and the fact that it takes a while before ISPs begin to trust your IP addresses, so if you need delivery to occur right away it's good to go with someone whose IPs have established trust.

I should also add that we use separate IPs for one-off emails that are not really bulk email (such as signup confirmations, emails you send via our API). This is hugely important for deliverability.

Check out a project I'm working on: hellocreature.com. We have a rails plugin you can use (or you can just use our REST api) to send emails that are signed with DomainKeys and DKIM, and are stamped with HashCash. We also support SenderID,

Do you happen to know any other examples of such things from biology, particularly in a shockingly small number of neurons? Great explanation, btw.

looks like a useful product. Isn't it similar to the stuff Ray Ozzie was doing before Microsoft acquired him? I think it has great potential. I haven't tried one hub yet but I plan to. One killer feature would be drag and drop file sharin

perhaps, but if one doesn't broadly agree with Rand's morality about capitalism, then he/she probably has some sort of "capitalism is evil/greedy" view, which is something that really ought to be sorted out before one ends up starting a bus

I see your point but if YC is about entrepreneurship then one's understanding of the morality of capitalism determines whether one views the entrepreneur as a greedy scoundrel or respectable citizen.

Your point is that rather than worrying about principles we should just take a poll and only discuss things that poll at close to 50%?

So-called entrepreneurs who are anti-Rand are typically the types whose projects are not really innovative, and depend more on bubble mentalities than on actual value added. If all you want is to have a VC look at your degree and your buzz

Uh, do you feel that as someone who emerged from his/her mother's vagina on American soil you are deserving of more than someone who emerged elsewhere? Why shouldn't someone who is willing to work be allowed to come here to be hired by som

Do you have a secular definition of greed to offer, so that someone might have a shot at answering your question?

This is a gimmick. You can get the same deal 365 days a year from other companies, just do a google search.

I agree. It's just not an area that allows for much small business activity. The SEC shut down prosper.com, for example. To innovate one needs huge teams of lawyers and the sympathies of bureaucrats. The bailouts, designed to prop up fai

Is portrait a parody? I read it to get acquainted with Stephen in anticipation of reading Ulysses, but haven't read Ulysses yet.

Maybe I just don't find it funny. I don't find Stephen Colbert the least bit funny either (though I think Jon Stewart is extremely funny).

This one reads like it was written by someone who got through the first 50 pages of Atlas Shrugged, read the cliffs notes, got a D on a paper, and has resented the style and the ideas ever since.

More accurately, there would be a shmarmy Wesley Mouch advocating Fannie and Freddie, and the need to repeal the Glass Stiegel act. The most productive people in the world have never cared about finance or banking. The only similarity betwe

In other words, how to shave the yak for about 6 months setting up a complicated security infrastructure. These may all be good practices, but how many of them assume that Amazon itself will get hacked? For entrepreneur on a budget, isn't #

I think it's when you are doing it for the love, and it's also successful. The convergence of pleasure and productivity (in an economic sense). By this logic, as a founder you may realize you've created something successful and fun but it'

Perhaps my M was worn out, but it required so much force to press the keys that I got in the habit of pressing them hard, on any keyboard even w/o positive click. I never had a problem with finding it ambiguous whether a key actually got pr

Oh forgot one thing. You should expect to get free shipping on an order that size. When it gets to the last negotiation then you can say "Ok, I'll do it if you can get me free 2 day shipping on it".

You can save a lot of money by going with the sales guy. Just be sure he knows that you are growing and you'll be placing a big order every few months. First go to the Dell website and price out the equipment. Then when you're speaking to

this is a great keyboard... i wish i could get one retrofitted onto my laptop... i stopped using it b/c switching back and forth between it and my laptop keyboard was costing about 15 wpm in errors.

I don't recommend the model M. I used one for a few years and enjoyed the feedback and noise, but I found that it got me in the habit of pounding the keys really hard with my fingers.... overall not a good strategy for RSI prevention. Mode

it doesn't? The average prisoner has an IQ that is one standard deviation below the mean. People whose IQ is one or two standard deviations above the mean rarely go to prison.
