First, I would say take a break and get a little perspective. What is the cause of your stress? Is it the work? Is it the lack of traction for your product or company? Is it cash flow? Is it physical exhaustion? Assess the source of that st

Here's the question. Is it editorializing when your own existence is put in question? Under SOPA, HN could be taken down with a simple link. One could create an account, post a link to some copyrighted material and then ask that HN be remov

On the other hand, maybe one of them was shaken into improving, leading the next person to get a better level of care. One never knows. It is true that to demand better than good is a tough challenge but I suspect it is why people look to J

True. That one always blew my mind as it really created a link between the two books. I was half expecting some of the characters to reappear when Cryptonomicon came out (didn't happen but Cryptonomicon has some linkage to the Baroque chron

You know, this kind of stuff is part of being a kid. When I was in first grade, my next door neighbor and I went into a water-selling business (think lemonade stand without the lemons) that failed miserably. My next venture was substantiall

I guess it depends on your workflow. I've been using "Add Star" as a bookmarking service and "Share" as a way quickly Tweet things out. I then mapped "Send To" to Instapaper so I can send longer articles there (2 clicks for Send To vs. Sing

Today, I can have a service that looks at my link blog (generated by clicking share) and its RSS feed. By doing so, it can then route new items to Twitter or other services. Reading what the blog entry says, it looks like "Send To" will be

The interesting thing is how they are cutting some features to "improve" it. I suspect that when it's done, it will be impossible to send items to Twitter or Facebook from it (you'll have to send things to Google+ instead). It's also a big

What I mean in the article is about cultural relevance. Much like Microosoft today is making gobs of money but has been written off by many in the tech community as an also ran (I'd love to create an also ran that's worth over $100 billion

An interesting insight and thanks for sharing it. A quick question for you: were you at Microsoft before or after the antitrust lawsuit? I remember dealing with Microsoft people before the lawsuit and it looked like the environment was simi

$.50 is steep (that's about $15/month) unless you can get great content that is actionable and can't be gotten elsewhere (for example, stock tips or financial analysis) As a more consumer-ish type product, you probably should start around $

I beg to differ on your point. I honestly believe that what made Zuckerberg successful was his "exposure" to the social components. Wherever you are, if you're a geek, you're going to be a geek. But if you're in a city, you, as a programmer

There is a valuable argument to rooming together (though that's the case for a lot of people in New York too). The difference is that in New York, you may also be more likely to room with someone who's not a geek. And if you don't get out (

So what makes the valley the epicenter of tech: talent and the ability to attract more talent (at the end of the day, that's what makes a place the epicenter of anything). On the first, the valley does have an advantage today. On the second
