I'm at a very early stage startup and am preparing to make my first hire in the next couple months. To me, it would be ideal if I could consider people who aren't US citizens or permanent residents. But, given how often I see smal

Tangentially related: Could someone explain to me why SoftBank often seems to be the only major company playing in the "traditional" VC space? We hear of the "SoftBank round", but not, for example, the "Microsoft ro

Strange that it's not on the website there. I don't know if the investment really happened either, but there are a couple links on a16z which seem to suggest they did invest in TopTal. Some articles reference a seed round. (these

I was recently in the market and was impressed by the amount of safety features available in modern models (my old car being a 2011 model). In the luxury range everything had automatic braking for rear-end collision, back-up collision preve

I dunno, I think this still reveals some patterns: Typically asleep around 5-8AM despite irregular sleep schedule, generally including 4 and 9 AM as well. Frequently staying up to around 2 or 3 AM. Lunch typically around 12, lull in work af

This is definitely a space that needs innovation! How do you plan to handle the case of survey takers being real people but just skimming through the survey? In my experience running research studies, this was the main problem with MTurk. T

I just started working on an extension recently with no experience and have found it to be pleasantly unchallenging. If you are familiar with web development already, it's actually a pretty easy transition. Primarily you have the optio
