I'd upvote twice if I could. In my previous business, I learned these lessons the hard way. Higher paying clients are nicer to work with. One regret is that I didn't spend enough time on "sales and marketing", which seem

The simple fact is that the Times revenue off print ads was an order (or two) of magnitude in difference. Online, the Times is competing against Google and Facebook CPCs and there's no way to get a high enough value/volume to make

Whoa, first off, I'm responding to the use of "corrupt" instead of the more accurate "Monopoly". Second, while I don't personally agree with Thiel he raises an interesting point about monopolies - primarily tha

The post is ostensibly about depression and race, but this quote really stuck out for me, "All this happened simply because, for once, I felt that there was someone who didn’t treat me the same way everyone else did." Who hasn&#x2

This is good advice, but I think it's more helpful (and less dangerous) to share personal experience than give blanket advice. "These things worked for me," is more useful than "These things will work for you."

KS currently is just a platform to match backers to projects - more like Ebay than YC. But, you're onto something here. Maybe they start a guidebook? Or a certification program? Or a community (like HN)? Or a school?

Fitbit and Fuel Band prove there's a market, but these aren't mass market devices. Maybe the idea is to fit that functionality into a traditional mass market device and see if they can make it work.

I don't know if the relaunch will work or not because I don't know if the web is fundamentally changing what (topic, length) we want to read. I do know they're sitting on a trove of evergreen content. A few years ago I rented
