Hey Sam! Much respect. Sometimes when I watch an interview with you (such as a recent Stanford class), it seems like the discussion is very one-sided. I don't perceive you normally as stating your opinions authoritatively, but I fear t

Before you posted this comment :) In all seriousness, I'm interpreting poverty as lacking the basic capacity to participate in society. In that sense, the average score of something like the human development index is not relevant to w

I liked the insightful/interesting/informative/funny on slashdot, maybe this will work out like that. Anyway, why not test a new feature? I see a lot of cynical comments here. And since when does Zuckerberg announce new featu

Agreed! First time below 10% since mankind's creation of poverty. I can't comment on the causality of capitalism, but I agree with Mandela that poverty is manmade.

That quote of "worth $x, let's create $y" was what made it click for me. Great way to explain it. The dotted lines only really helped me to label the data on the bar chart, but on the right-hand column, I didn't quite ge

YC equity is an incredible incentive, but it also encourages researchers to help YC startups succeed.

It may also be interesting to add levers for duration of time between financial events. Then we can look at the exit analysis from an investor's point of view and understand a little bit more about investing at different stages... then

Awesome page, learning a lot. As someone who never really understood this song and dance, here's my feedback. I think you should include a more direct explanation of pre- and post- money valuations. Sure, it's really simple: Premo

It's cool, but using the definite article "the" like this is disappointingly misleading.

This is really good! Just had to turn off banner notifications and it matches all the functionality and simplicity I need. Would love to see someone add ShareX's magnifying glass & crosshairs

Last time I tried Gyazo, the free tier didn't support direct url clipboarding, just a link to a page with more ads than content.

I love ShareX. It's terrific for chatting online, both for work and personal conversations. I've been using it since before it was renamed from ZScreen. If someone knows a comparable OSX app, I've been searching for this leve

I generally agree. For me it just pissed off the people who were trying to help me. Seems like most practitioners (and this is in any industry, I think), know what to do and how to do it, but the logical "why" behind it has long s

The PR effort behind this app is amazing. I feel equally intimidated and flummoxed when I try to imagine how they achieved such marketing success. Why did anyone care about this particular app before it started the frenzy, and why does(did?

This is great! A lot of useful spreadsheet functions are really esoteric and unintuitive. Would love to see this integrated with Google Sheets

I agree with your light gray comment. Coming from San Francisco, I've been working in India for the past month and have made a few unexpected observations: 1. Despite scarcity of 3G and land line data, consumers hardly budget their usa

My "Smart" TV takes an infuriating amount of time to "boot up". To change the video input, I probably have to wait around 2-3 eternities. At least that's how it feels when I already have in my head the instantaneous

By the way, Gregor Kiczales's Coursera courses have moved to Edx.org. I followed the first one, very rewarding experience as a beginner.

"You must be over 21 to enter" Haha! The warning kind of works like a teaser to build hype, as if to say "this website is totally legit way to score weed" without violating the premium brand. Love it

From experience, I can say that it's stressful and unsatisfying to do approximately "nothing." I recommend taking a hard look at your finances and setting up some kind of concrete goal(s). Take that class, build that joke app

Sure! They've actually varied a lot and I've liked them for different reasons, but across all categories I can say I don't like science fair style, really appreciate non-pizza food, and won't wear low-quality t-shirts mo

I've been to around a dozen in the past year, here's my take: Stable Wi-Fi. Don't charge for admission. Adhere to a strict fresh code rule. Limit teams to 4 or 5. Stick to your judging criteria (fun, business, innovation -- w

Nice app. Personally, I am pretty happy with yohackernews for mobile. One thing I'd like to know more about though is Akepa's icon / logo. It's very cool. I would love to read about your design process & ideation.

Wolf in the hen house? I'm not sure how accurate this is, but I perceive a significant contrast in cultures and philosophies between PT and YC.
