You might be required to if you care about having legal protection over your intellectual property. FWIW, I think most YC startups share their employee contracts, and in it, there's a section that mentions you are entitled to your own

Doesn't seem that controversial here, everybody is in favor of Google's direction. I'm glad they're enforcing better web standards and quality across the board. We have to be mindful and not lazy about designing the web

I'm not GP but I think you are both correct. What I personally dislike and would avoid as an interviewer is "Rate your [language] skills from 1-10". I've answered a "2" every time I've been asked that ques

It's great that people are cognizant of the value we _really_ provide to a company! We improve your product tremendously - we're not just code monkeys! Now that we're on the same page, can we also get a salary that is more in

I've definitely noticed a dropoff in my interest in Show HN. I used to look forward to seeing Show HNs on the front page, and even posted one that was moderately successful, but now it seems like very few posts ever make it. Meanwhile,

Companies also further constrain themselves by not allowing remote work.

To me, this is the best answer. I'll work for almost any company for a long, long time as long as they allow me to work remotely and always pay me competitively. The rest are just small, interchangeable details.

You've likely considered this, but for those in a similar position, why not freelance and just choose your months? You likely have many contacts in the field and I'm sure you do very good work. Work half the year and do whatever y

That feels like an awfully strict definition of failure, especially since IF Dropbox and/or Square are acquired, it would be for well over 10-11 figures.

Given its recency, is it safe to assume this works for Rails 4.2.0beta? I'm working on a new project for a client and was a little dismayed that both Rails Admin and ActiveAdmin currently have problems with 4.2.0.

Agreed 100% - I work in SF but I'm not a fan of the city. Even after considering the higher cost of living, I'm pretty sure I make substantially more here than I would in LA. I'd love to move back to Southern California, thou

Built and launched http://www.encorebeat.com in the past couple weeks. We found that finding new, good electronic dance music is very time-consuming/difficult, so we built a Product Hunt for EDM. It got a great reception on

This is great, installing now. I too use the cmd+shift+4 method but it's pretty unreliable. Similarly, one thing I often find myself needing to do is find the hex or RGB value of an element of pixel on the fly. I know there are osx app

Betterment and Bitcoin speculation for the most part. With the right knowledge, you can certainly outperform Betterment, but as a programmer I'm content just outsourcing that and saving that time for other things (like getting better a

a. It's hard to say because as I admitted in 1, it's hard to know what "Junior" qualifies for anymore, and I'm unsure of what your metric is for it. If you'd like, we can talk separately and I can try to give y

1. I don't think there is a universal standard for "junior level" anymore. If you have a year's worth of working with Rails across the stack in a production setting, you are more than capable of landing a decent job in S

Living in SF, I also feel like this issue pertains to the tech industry in general, for non-programming jobs. In my girlfriend's experience, tech startups are looking for people who have had tech experience prior, even in Sales, AM, Cu

Same, pretty sure I've been shadow-banned by Lyft for the past year or two since it never shows any available cars in the middle of the day despite living in downtown SF (and plenty when my roommate opens the app next to me). I'm

Yep, I've spent a ton the past couple years as well, and it's by far the only tech company that I've spent more than a couple grand on. I'm not sure if OP used this but if anyone's curious to know how much they&#x27

You speak of these 'top pros' and their hand-reading abilities as if they're an enigma. Hand-reading is mostly a mathematical exercise. It's also infrequently about placing a person on a specific hand but rather a range

They are. Overwhelmingly, in fact. You are almost certainly looking at a ridiculously small sample (probably just WSOP Main Events, of which the past several have had legitimately skilled winners).

This is largely incorrect. NLHE can be more about "bluffing" because there's greater variability between ones chance of winning a hand and the potential bet size. But it still comes down to a mathematical decision, just that

I'm always curious how side-projects that are marketplaces initially got their supply. Seems like there's a good amount of RVs listed, did you have to do your own biz dev footwork in addition to building out the site?

Not currently, but that's coming shortly. The technology is still pretty new, but we're friends with AIMSuite (Intel) and have plans to use their solution in the future.

Thanks, if this analogy helps, we're trying to be like a Google AdSense in the real world using digital signage tech.
