   The team(including Justin: using first name here for convinience's sake) had a trip to Austin. Where they were should be a public knowledge. Perhaps they(you) started the search from there. A facebook search or so could tell some plans

   I know, I know... I just snapped a little and ranted, perhaps out of the place. As for the added piece, I think I've responded it on the other comment in this thread: ( https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=6354885 )

    I do have something that I have in mind that I think will appear in my obituary. I've known it since late teenager, and I knew it won't earn me bread. That was why I came into CS, because I knew it would earn me bread, and, well

    I've felt this way for some time here in HN. It feels as though the culture is that you're expected to have ambition to create your own startup, thrive to do better, if not the best, and make yourself matter , except in this ca

    I did edit it in very shortly after. To me the wording irked me more than the word choice 'founding'. Besides, I generally don't like pointing out grammar; I find it a bad taste, especially when you use all jargons and all. y

    Having dedicated a lot of time in amassnig the details and contexts reasonably, this looks no more than a PR bullshit when the press goes bad . The fact they brought it up after three years just to stir it up, then apologize only when

    I don't mind designers and/or developers changing their products. If they think they have something better (disregarding the contrived-ness of the term for now), they're more than welcome to provide me the new stuff. Just do
