You're about a 13% hire rate. Google is about 0.2%, Apple 2%, and Harvard is 7%.

100% Agree!

And here you are on HN. It is hard to buy this argument. Instead of reading HN for a week, hack out a little app and toss it up on GitHub. I am almost certain that is more valuable for you than opining here.

I do the same as well, I think it is a great approach. It is just a paring exercise, the language of their choice, their equipment, full internet access. We just build something like a calculator or pig latin translator. Something that y

What should be the Dribbble equivalent for software engineers then? All I hear these days is, whiteboards for hiring is bad, asking to do a sample project for hiring is bad, now GitHub is bad. I don't know when software engineers bec

Wasn't about the author--I totally agree with author. I was replying to the top commenter, who seemingly is a software engineer and disagrees with the author. I think if anyone has read the history of Carmack, Carmack would agree tha

No offense, but compare your GitHub profile to someone who "grinds" like https://github.com/bketelsen . There is far too much confirmation bias in regards to work-life balance and ability to actually produce. As fa

Don't you want people that care about your product instead of the technology behind it? I do. Because there may come a time when another technology is a better fit for your product and ultimately your customer's experiences. Th

I also believe it was the correct move. But not because he wrote it, but because what he actually said in it. He made many generalizations that contribute to gender inequality and never backed any of those statements up with any scientifi

This is not uncommon. The deal will have an escrow where money is held for a time period to protect against such claims.

Unbelievable. An experienced & successful entrepreneur would take on an unknown cofounder without any kind of vesting schedule + cliff. Doesn't make any sense to me. I am not buying Jeremy's side at all.

This is the best resource on the subject, written by the designer of the protocol. The author is, surprisingly, a pretty good writer. This not only gives you everything you need to know (without grokking the spec), but also talks a lot ab

Sadly, just seems like the author was never really even punk rock to begin with.

Thanks for the candidness and honesty. It is really refreshing to hear the details--mistakes and all!

The whole "co-founder" is more of an egocentric term in this case. In the end, does it make your product better or worse if they are founders? It seems like a waste of focus to even worry about it. But if you must, I would consider the f

FWIW - Glancing at your website, I am not immediately sure what it means to Push Objective-C to the cloud? More specifically, what is the pain point you are solving for me?

"GitHub hit one of the great gushers of the last decade (and let's face it, they mainly hit it for reasons that had little do with, um, their actions)" Really? If they didn't do anything why would you even be paying them your $100 to begin

Did anyone else feel like they were being trolled by some kind of Steve Jobs joke during the video or lifestream?

This is awesome, thanks. I would love to see an equivalent using C so that one could learn to make a more portable OS for other ARM chips.
