I would argue that, if there wasn't penalty reversion to a flagged item, there wouldn't be an option to unflag submissions...

I believe this happens mostly because people tend to define means as their passion... Taking a job, or starting a company isn't a goal per se. It is a mean of reaching a goal, which most people never actually define. Considering that follow

I am affraid you didn't get to explain why games have to be finished, debugged and polished on day 1 of release. There are many developers (indie) that have been disrupting the industry by exactly not doing that and I am pretty sure you hav

For those interested, there is a C based implementation of Notch's DCPU-16 in github: https://github.com/swetland/dcpu16 I haven't tested it much, but it seems to work pretty well.

If they left the profile empty, it was their choice. You can interpret that as if they simply don't want to be contacted. Doing what you suggested won't make HN any "better", it will only drive away the commenters that don't want to be reac

I got mine almost 2 weeks ago. Didn't read much, I skimmed through alot of it and read around 80 pages (it really is a reference, a manual, not a textbook that you can read linearly and quickly). My first impressions were: 1) it is a pretty

That post is very good, but it could delve more on how to motivate oneself. I am therefor cross-posting my own post here, trying to add some more value to this thread. First, a disclaimer, this will probably sound too abstract and not a gui

Musashi by Eiji Yoshikawa. Highly recommended for anyone who has discipline problems, it is really inspiring, one of the top 3 books I've read. It tells the history of the real samurai named Miyamoto Musashi.

I went through the same decision 6 months ago. We had a company going and were ready to raise capital and drop college, but we decided otherwise. I am also 23, self-taught and I never liked college. Ever since I was allowed to surf the inte

I closed mine so I could finish college and learn to program better. I was 6 months from graduating and we had a choice of either raising money and dropping off college or closing the startup so we could graduate. As we didn't have a MVP co

I second the arduino + book suggestion. I had a tough time learning how to program, I had trouble motivating myself because all the things I wanted to do were complex, and "Hello World" programs aren't motivating, just letters on a screen..

This following quote is the only part that actually matters in this article. Because of the scarcity of capital, startups have to become profitable asap, and some even build non-core products or services (such as consultancy to large firms)

I am actually Brazilian, but still, none of this is relevant. There are startups in Israel, they are getting funded and having exits where they can. You might have a problem that this isn't solving the problems you believe your country have

You should do a better research. If there weren't Israeli startups, the country wouldn't show the highest domestic expenditure in R&D as percentage of the GDP[1], nor would it have ranked second only to the United States in invested pri

We split it 50/50 but with an extra, if any of us decide to leave the business, you'll have to give the opportunity to the other to buy your share in one year before selling out to investors and others. This way the most interested parties

It is funny that most people think that gamers are under 25 years old. In fact, the average gamer age in the US was, in 2010, 34 years old. And only 25% of them were under 18. Those numbers are from a 2010 study from Entertainment Software
