Gotta get the consumer over the believability hump. The folks that care about their Microbiome will probably have tried some sort of probiotic previously. Why is this any better than what they can get from Jarrow, New Chapter, etc. from the

Great video on YouTube that looks at the engineering/design of the players and some of the other reasons for VHS winning the battle such as the rise of video rentals on VHS. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ddYZITaxlTQ

Nice! Got some interesting results from a photos of iPhones and iPads. Curious to know how this compares head-to-head with the CamFind API at https://www.mashape.com/imagesearcher/camfind which I've been thinking

This is pretty great. Frightening how I've been spending a ton more on Uber recently after the fare reductions. Also, don't forget to click 'Show all trips' on the table and reload to see better results.

I cannot wait for this to launch in San Francisco. Depending on your location in the city, grocery shopping without a car can be a pain if you're buying enough food/organic produce/grass-fed meat for 21 meals/week x 2 pe

If it can handle picking up a return package that would mean never having to go the UPS store again.

Postmortems like this are really interesting to see, they benefit incoming and future YC classes. I'd love to see more as well. I agree that if you don't pass the conviction 'sniff test', it's really hard to grind t

Veterans to CrossFit are not immune, nor are good movers/fit athletes in general. I've been doing CrossFit for six years, this past December during a 'holiday' WOD I got nailed by acute rhabdo in my right arm. It took ma

I've been standing for a year, no negative side effects to report. Initially my concentration did go down, I think it's now probably back to normal levels. One positive, if you work things other than typing it's much easier n

Wow! Kudos on executing! Sounds like you learned a lot getting to a MVP. You may want to read over this article at SmashingMag on how to recruit a UX designer. http://uxdesign.smashingmagazine.com/2012/02/16/how-to-recru...

I'm looking at data visualization to prevent corporate espionage. In reality it's data theft that brought Wikileaks in to the public consciousness. I think that most people forget/aren't aware that the data was actually stolen by a 22 year

I spent two years working on this problem as my masters thesis. It's possible, not trivial.

Noah Wyle's intro at Macworld is better than Andy Samberg at f8. Funnily enough I'm watching the movie right now - Mike Markkula just showed up and Steve just named himself employee #0.

Congrats to the Palantir team. Some of the smartest folks I've encountered and a very inspiring and important product. The technical challenges these guys have tackled are impressive.

Make no mistake the bluff was called. Apple themselves removed the app (of at least one of the impacted few) and then required that the alternate version be posted for sale. The choice was either have no app available for your customers or

Bingo. Their magazine viewer is bloated. RMSDK is garbage. Start by bringing their expertise in layout and fonts to things that people are actually using. Namely, WebKit and JS.

This is fantastic. I'm glad to see Apple doing what they do best... enabling content developers to be creative. Adobe has a long way to go.

I haven't seen the final product, but did get to try on the prototype seen at 1:34. This was pre internal padding and any electronics. Can't wait to see the final working unit.
