Has there ever been an acquisition similar to Tumblr (company that has existed for 5+ years that hasn't found a profitable business model) which has contributed positively to the acquirer's net income? Is there any chance that this cannot t

That same million after one year becomes 9 million the next and 80 million the year after that. Most people would kill for a 20% revenue growth rate per month.

After reading the documentation more clearly. http://edgeapi.rubyonrails.org/classes/ActiveRecord/Batches.... . It looks like there may need to be a patch for this feature, however the batching process forces the database to make a query i

Of course, both of those methods are members of ActiveRecord and will work regardless of how you filter your records.

Don't be so sure of that, I went to pick up a glass in NYC yesterday and the staff had the exact conversation of when you were going to have this jailbroken. It is just funny that it was literally done within 24 hours.

Can you sort by the delta in monthly pageviews? Absolute change in rank offers little meaningful information. (I would assume is much easier to go from 10,000 to 5,000 than 200 to 100.)

Deflation increases the value of holding cash. By definition deflation occurs when the price of a basket of goods decreases. Why invest your money in a basket of goods today when it is going to be cheaper to buy that same basket tomorrow?

Sorry transcribing from video is a little harder than from an essay. You try to tow the line between the speaker's rhythm and correct syntax to form the natural voice of the person speaking. Here is the video for the actual quote. http://w

Seed investing is not something for amateurs, in fact frankly I don't think investing in public companies is for amateurs. I would tell ordinary people to invest in index funds and don't invest in startups at all. You should not be investin

This seems like a problem with the UX of KickStarter and not project creators. Instead of asking a creator to predict the future with relative accuracy, instead model development like real life. If project creators were prompted with two qu

I've seen this done a couple of different times, and it still makes zero sense from a usability standpoint. What is wrong with vertical scrolling? The entire gesture of clicking and dragging is awkward and makes zero sense when using a comp

(More anecdotal evidence) Patrick Collison also helped me out when I was implementing Stripe on my site, and I am just a regular joe.

I don't think this project will work due to several inherent economic factors. If I understand correctly app.net takes a free service (twitter, fb) has removed the best features of those services and then wants to charge money for that prod

I was a little confused to see that 9GAG was in this current batch for YC. 9GAG is a 4 year old company, what sort of benefit does YC give them? What will they demo at demo day? Why not go to traditional VCs at this stage of operation?

I have used bloc and I must say it is a bad product. It doesn't challenge you to figure out what to do and allows you to just copy/paste pre-written code they have provided. After using it I got the feeling that I had not learned a damn thi

Honestly the author is over thinking his solution to the problem. The way to solve this problem is to give people the option of viewing reviews that Yelp believes are of dubious origin. Add another section to the reviews page, and let the u

This is why you should practice test driven development. If you write the tests before you implement the solution then you will know that your tests are doing what they are supposed to do.

Looks like a cool little product, I would buy one if I wore watches. My only suggestion would be to stop designing your dial as if you had a round face to work with, your display is square so you should design accordingly. All of the analog
