Yup. It gets a bit annoying when people try to figure out why they didn't get the job. The answer is always that someone else was preferred over you. You usually can't know if your interview performance was a determining factor.

I assume they will. It seems like a similar situation to Soylent- a spinoff of a ycombinator company, that is billed as a ycombinator company.

I assume something's wrong with him attending Stanford in 2000 (or being born in 1986). He didn't go to college when he was 14/15, did he?

We really need this for Soylent, and I remember there was talk about this on the Soylent forums soon after they got going. Does anyone know specifically what the issues are to creating a Soylent bot? Or is it in the works?

I just met with a local State Representative in Oregon and he was talking about Georgia as an example of a state with good higher education funding- he said any student with a B average or better would receive free college. Is this true? Or

How does this work? I just tried clicking through and it returned a list of friends who added me. If there was no list of people who deleted me, does that mean it hasn't happened? Was it working properly?

Does this apply even on mobile? I'm interested in a password manager that works seamlessly on Android.

Yup. I switched from iOS 6 months ago and podcasting was one of the initial problems I had. I trialed a handful of apps before properly purchasing pocketcasts. As good as the iOS app.

Respect from Oregon. I tell all my friends about you.

A huge barrier for many people is they have no understanding of what programming will enable, what it entails, and its varying difficulty levels. I think there are so many "pre-med" college freshmen because everyone understands th

I don't think people know enough to be against it. I'm a university student and within the last year I've talked to 20+ people about it (mostly students), and mostly people don't know what it is.

They can (and probably will) help the poor once they scale up their production and drive the marginal production cost down. Low cost hinges on scaling up (and hopefully also being less strict about pseudo-"hypo-allergenic" propert

I don't think the group of people is really small. People I talk to about Soylent tend to think about it in a binary "all or nothing" way. Yes, there are few who would do use it for the majority of their meals. There are many

What was the timing for the html5 vs native decisions and corrections? I'm assuming you're talking about the mobile applications running slowly for the first few years. I uninstalled a year ago and haven't checked back. I&#x2

Do they use open source libraries? And otherwise how do they differ from something like Angular?

Do you think noot could be created using Meteor? I've been curious about learning Meteor and am wondering if a social flashcard app would be too much for it to handle.

I've wondered if Microsoft adopts a sort of "golden path" (a la Dune) strategy... intentionally make every other operating system unpopular in order to set the stage for their next version. You need bad in order to see good.

I don't know much about his origins, but surely that's not how he used his time when he was getting started, is it? I'm guessing his work activities were far more conventional (though still well selected) and only after build

Success comes from many sources. It's totally possible that a tactic employed by a successful company is not actually contributing to their success.

He doesn't say how to choose the right stocks. And I assume he's choosing them after the fact for his graph. I'd be curious to see a random sampling of S&P 500 in autumn vs. spring. That would give a better idea of if it

Or that they lose money on the warranty and make up for the loss in other ways. It's a necessary part of the package.

Did you realize you're replying to Paul Graham? I thought it pretty funny telling pg about his program. Of course I understand there are many more readers of the comment, but it still seems directed at him.

Yes, people on r/nexus5 are saying they got LTE activated without much issue. I'm planning to switch to ST when my AT&T contract expires.

Could this not be some large purchase with a bitcoin payment attached to a contract? Could a contract enforce a bitcoin transfer?

What's the point? Spreading the risk of loss by hack? And reducing their visibility as a target?
