I once heard Elon quote these: cost of a launch is roughly $60 million. Assuming the rocket can be reused 60 times it'll go down to about $1000 which is what he wants. IOW, he wants to make space travel ad cheap as international flight

Legally very easy because it's a down road (read up on "VC cram down"). They'd raised $120million prior, and now they're doing a $5-$15million convertible at a $80million valuation (significantly down round). All ex

Reading code without judging is a superpower, because it breaks your mental blocks and makes you versatile. You can work on others code comfortably, fix things, and learn the good parts quickly without getting frustrated. My biggest issue

Bah, why do people write such painfully long posts without an executive summary at the top?

This is a great way to look at it. Few things I'd add: 6. Does the CEO have a strong vision and character? Roughly, are they more like Elon Musk (engineering driven, moves quickly), Jeff Bezos (long term thinker, experiments a lot), Ma

I remember he was talking about how inefficient it is to type. The pc had great bandwidth, phone has pathetic bandwidth. Presumably this increases bandwidth exponentially.

It's not about competition limiting, it's about unfair pricing and abuse. It's not fair to replace a local worker with a foreign worker because they're cheaper . And, there are tons and tons of staffing firms who system

In a nutshell, where a "sensible" person (engineering manager, engineer, founder..) is involved in front line recruiting (i.e they search, they look at applications), your projects are valuable. I found that in a lot of cases such

Gigster and toptal a) have their own vetting mechanism that misses out on lots of good developers, b) charge a premium for that which is unnecessary, and c) are a service not a platform. What I want is a lightweight platform where any githu

Starts at $50 per month. You need to setup a "library" of blog posts (yours and others) and it will keep retweeting them on autopilot. I want something for $10 per month that simply connects to my blog and retweets posts all day.
