I didn't get hired from the monthly thread, but I did get a job at a YC startup through an HN post. Since then, we've found the quality of HN candidates to be overall strong. I definitely recommend it as a way to connect with co

There are plenty of bad lawyers out there, so if you're going to hire one, please do the legwork (get referrals, speak to multiple candidates) to find a good, trusted one.

I've used both services and used Car2go mainly for short one-way trips. I'm curious at how Uber and other ridesharing apps have affected Car2go since the costs might be comparable with added benefits of (1) not having to park, (2

The author says they raised a "small seed" round, so the funding might be much smaller than the typical seed rounds we hear about these days.

I disagree with your numbers on the message/reply/date funnel (mine is much better and I would expect most people's are). I do like the idea of Wednesday Night though and hope you guys can execute well on it.

It's not surprising that some unfortunate incidents have happened with Airbnb now that it has become mainstream. Hosts should definitely take precautions, but these 5 cases should be viewed in the context of the 5+ million stays that have

I've been a seller on eBay on and off since 1995. Selling is inconvenient and shipping has always been the biggest pain point. After the sale, it's rare where I feel like my time selling on eBay was well-spent, but it's kind of fun and I

I've considered doing Camino. Would love to chat more about your experience.

Cool idea. One month seems a little too short though.

This thought didn't occur to me at all when I read the TC article. In many cases, time > money and if this service actually does a better job, then they could be on to something.

Very cool. 70k users is pretty impressive. Is this including fb friends of users or just people who signed up?

Another option is the concierge delivery method. This works for some ideas better than others. Eric Ries (and many others) go into greater details. Basically, you manually deliver the service. So, if you were a grocery delivery service,

I lived in Akita prefecture for just a year while doing the JET program many years ago. It may be true that it's hard to have face-to-face meetings with coders where you're at, but I would suggest getting involved with the community in what

Surveys have their place, but I'm a little surprised that a student of Steve Blank/Eric Ries' teachings wouldn't be "getting out of the building" and talking to people.

Great blog post (as usual from Priceonomics). I'm sure many people (myself included) would become Jellyfish Art customers once Alex can nail the lower price point.

I think if the review linked to the reviewer's profile that would help. Certainly there isn't a 100% way to prevent gaming reviews, but there are plenty of measures to keep people honest.

I love traveling, but haven't gotten around to using Vayable (or any of its competitors). I'm planning a trip to Spain in the next few months, so hopefully will be able to give it a try.

There are tons of meetups going on all the time (www.meetup.com). No real estate tech meetups that I know of though. I'll be at Realtech SF too, so feel free to ping me if you want to meet up there.

I've used Car2go a lot and would like to see it in SF, but the tighter parking situation in SF worries me. It's annoying when you're paying by the minute and you have to drive around for 30 minutes looking for parking.
