I suppose I should clarify: I had been ignoring the link because I seriously thought HN had been hit by some spambot. After I read the article, I saw that there were topics that would be of interest to HN. You are correct, there are not a l

Because he is applying formula #1: go to college -> get A job -> make money Nowhere in there does it say he can get more than one job, start a side business, etc. He's stuck using a broken ideology, but that is apparently all he was

Yes, he's whining. But the undertone seems to be that he is crushed by debt to the point his life feels worthless. Therefore instead of spending those years only to accumulate debt, he is feeling he could have done just as well sitting in p

Good for him. He bought it. He pays the taxes on it. Let him do what he wants with it. If it starts to interfere with the health or safety of those around him, then maybe he should be restricted in what he does.

Based on your questions and your last comment... let's be clear here. You aren't wanting to make an app just to view content right (ala plugin)? The purpose of the native app route is to provide better/easier/more interaction with your site

Not to take the conversation into semantics and web marketing but, what qualifies for entry into the new club? Only YC funded startups? Anyone here who blogs about starting something? A company that has an idea and is moving forward? A comp

1st Bob: What you do at Initech is you take the specifications from the customer and bring them down to the software engineers? Tom: Yes, yes that's right. 2nd Bob: Well then I just have to ask why can't the customers take them directly to

That's just my game. First, you have to be purpose driven in your start-up. Everything you do has to have a purpose, security included. So, ask yourself what needs securing and why. Will an attack cripple your finances, reputation or maybe

I have three children. While I don't condone the "home bubble", I do strongly believe children need to be raised by their parents and not some daycare center. I have seen parents dropping kids off for 8-12 hours a day just to chase more mon

I would license the technology. In my industry crawlers are required to perform a sweep and gather data. However, there is a large void in the flash crawling capabilities of various tools. Look for tools that crawl, index, data mine, whatev

Wow! Don't mistype this one. One letter over and you get a different kind of index. I always thought 'Noob' was a mild put-down. People don't strive to be 'Noobs' or associated with 'Noobs'. So, even if they start out as 'Noobs' what happen
