What other devices would be an appropriate replacement for a key other than a mobile phone? (or do you mean a mobile web app?) eg: using keyfobs = a) regularly lost, b) regularly forgotten, c) small expense every time you give to people, d)

You are missing that this is not necessarily aimed at regular home owners. Imagine offices, rented accommodation or as a secondary lock for homes. Being able to offer and revoke keys over the air is huge. This isn't disruptive to household

If you're a developer, and that isn't entirely clear, "stuff I have built" is #1 thing to show off.

I don't find your site to do a very good job at articulating what you're looking for, and what your skill set is. The first thing you read is that your attributes are "Big Data" "Strong" and "Commenter" why don't you put actionable things?

You haven't listed any of your needs or wants that you wish to satisfy. Why isn't that just a short bullet point list somewhere? Why isn't all of this a collection of short bullet point lists: * Skill set * Achievements at last company *

Learning how to speak and articulate what I am saying has been the most valuable skill I have ever learnt. I am constantly blown away by how poorly grown adults converse.

Not only does Twitter make money, but TweetDeck raised it's first round of funding little over 2 years ago - it isn't ridiculous to spend that long building a product before monetization. No need to be so down on this.

TweetDeck is loved by it's audience, and Twitter has taken a lot of flack for breaking products recently. I think they'll leave them alone for the near future. TweetDeck presumably has a modest burn rate compared to Twitter, for it's impact

TweetDeck could make barrels of money if Twitter allowed them to run adverts. (of some capacity)

by pclark 15y ago
TweetDeck had ~10% of Twitters user base as users, and they sold for a mere $50M. This should speak volumes about "not being someones bitch."

so wait, is notifo.com going through yc again? (I only ask, because if not, and notifo is dead, that sucks)

It's kind of rude to record people (especially in a YC style setting) without asking...

A lot of people are surprisingly down on acquisitions like this. I think that if a company acquires a company, with the sole intention of using the talent and expertise in a different product - that is okay. I don't really see what the bi

I have been quite surprised at how my enthusiasm for contributing to Hacker News has diminished at the removal of comment scores. Not necessarily a bad thing for anyone.
