Well I could have worded that differently. Sometimes it's a good addition like you suggest, I think I handle that gracefully. More often the response is more "The problem with that is..." which I counter with "here's the answer to that" wh

I think you nailed it. I definitely under-sell my own value and abilities, I need to work on that.

I've got a real problem recruiting smart people to my ideas. Here's the issue from my point of view: Lay people are easy to convert, you can simply answer questions intelligently. Someone with no interest or experience in the area isn't v

iOS isn't a full open computing environment, any simple interface is just as "intuitive", compare to android or WP8.

That is a huge barrier to entry for small developers, so indy games will always be sans-online DRM for the most part. These games are developed on open PC systems, so that's always going to be around too... your predictions for the future l

It seems like there's two sides to creating demand for a product, natural customer desire and customer desire plasticity. Of course, focusing on both is the best approach. Personally, I've never gleaned the appeal of apple products. They

Not a hack, but East Texas is a big fat target for reform. Maybe we just need a bunch of people to move there for a few years and upset the status quo?

The PC revolution was great because it exposed PCs to a lot of people who really didn't need all that power and versatility; the PC was the only option. This is a long term market correction, and society is worse off for it, but that's not

The article treats subvocalization as an absolute value to present a lazy argument. Is reducing subvocalization beneficial? Is every single phrase and word important to subvocalize? Relevant questions completely ignored here.

My last YC pitch was a system like this, with some unique innovations. Do you really use the iRSVP system? Can you speak to the problems or weaknesses in your experience?

I want to play Psychonauts but it's just a mess, runs like crap on my fast-as-hell PC. This game gets so much nostalgia cred, someone should really clean it up.

Five years, hell three years out the mac hardware is obsolete and unable to use the newest OS. I hope your software is still supported on the old hardware! How is your custom POS developer going to test for that by the way? As long as we'
