Personally I rate domain hacks, especially perfect ones like last.fm. I think think the dominance of the .com should be challenged, partly because how many .coms are genuine businesses, i.e. do they make any cash, or do they just lose it ha

It was very satirical, but written with the world weary experience of someone working professionally in the mind-numbingly 'head up your own ass' world of music promo production. The point he's making is that so many promos being produced

I really agree with the points raised in the article, but as most of the other replies state, you are entering into a business relatioship with them , so yes they do have to review what you submit - fair enough. What I've never understood i

I agree wholeheartedly with this. For anyone who's interested, my wish list is: 1. No debt 2. Index linked income stream of about $100,000 annually 3. Camper van 4. Second hand Porsche ( can't help that, I'm 45) 5. Happy, healthy family

The training I did was based on 'Sudden Attack' principles, i.e. where you're being suddenly attacked. These are the most common forms of attack, and in most cases, no amount of martial arts training is going to help you, because you probab

I do Movement Meditation in a class run by a seventy year old guy. I'm the youngest at fourty-five. It's an art, no violence or aggression, but intense training. I don't get injured - ever. Previously kubatan, and some close protection trai

"Instead of dismissing these models as "socialist...." Is 'socialist' such a dirty word to the author, who also describes these countries as "developed democracies" in the same sentence? I actually find this quite shocking. Give me the Bri

It seems that the problem is with everybody expecting everything on the web to be free, is just that point, we always 'expect' it to be free. Maybe the key is in changing the mindset of users to expect to have to pay a little for things we

Sounds mad, but even though we have CS3 and most other graphics/design packages, we use the drawing tools in Powerpoint a lot to do quick web page layouts or site designs, regardless of what PP's actually meant for. The reasons are this: an

Interesting difference in the attention spans of the 1930's to now. 1:50 in and still not a word of commentary on what this is about. How many people on HN sat through this whole video? "Recent studies show that Internet users spend as litt

I'd say that's EXACTLY what it is. I'm curious as to how someone starts a site like Newmogul. What's day one like? Do they just have a load of links to news aggregated articles with comments from anyone they can grab around their office, an

Please, please don't go into teaching if it's not something that you feel really driven to do. The education system is full of unmotivated seat warmers just there for the paycheck, and missing the whole point of how crucially important teac

I'm a geek, but I don't know a line of code to save my life. Does this make me a non-hacker? The wrong kind of poster? I lurk here because the threads, especially anything YC/VC/Start-up, are really informative and genuinely useful. The Erl
