For pianists, I think many would agree with Hans von Bülow when he called Bach's The Well-Tempered Clavier the "The Old Testament" and Beethoven's 32 Piano Sonatas the "The New Testament". https://en

I think your challenge is to be objective about your co-founder since they're your good friend. From the outside looking in, it sounds like the equity split needs to reflect the amount of risk you're both taking on. You're fu

Come join the pit of despair on /r/freelance where freelancers whine about freelance sites ad nauseam yet continue to use them despite knowing they're all dumpster fires. Misery loves company!

The only thing I can think of is using a technology that would be difficult or costly to hire for. Of course this would be morally dubious if it doesn't align with the goals of the business but if it does produce some material benefit

I don't think there's much you can do except make it riskier in your partners' eyes to get rid of you. Become indispensable. This is totally anecdotal but I remember from an early season of Survivor that there was a contestan

This may be shocking to HN readers but go offline. Crazy idea, right? Join a business networking group, talk to people, and put yourself out there.

This looks like a bunch of circumstantial evidence. The two LiDAR boards need to be compared to prove that Otto stole Waymo's IP.

Vermont. Depends on your idea of luxury and taking "in the world" to not mean exclusively outside of the US. I think it definitely fits the rest of your criteria though.

When comparing the two, I think the fundamental question is what advantage does this package have over using the Stripe API directly? Here's Cashier's mission statement: > Laravel Cashier provides an expressive, fluent interfac

This article reminds me of sales techniques in general. For example, there's a talk somewhere on YouTube by a sales guru I can't remember the name of, about the art of closing. In the video he suggests using the word "agreeme

As far as public records go, real estate data can be quite the treasure trove. There are data brokers that collect, analyze, and resell this information all day long. For example, my startup can pull information on ownership, mortgage and s

I agree -- you need a little bit of both qualities. The vision of what to create and the execution to carry it out. The two go hand in hand. I think Linus is putting the emphasis on hard work because we mere mortals aren't endowed with

What, specifically, would the drone inspect? The only thing I can imagine a drone being useful for is inspecting the roof and chimney. And that's counting on the home inspector being too lazy too get on a ladder. In fact, most of them

You and your co-founder(s) need to sign a contract that A) acknowledges your full ownership of the gesture IP and B) allows you to start a similar company. I would suggest hiring a lawyer to draft a contract and help negotiate terms.

My advice for someone at your stage is not to come up with the idea yourself. Unless you're an expert in the industry you're building your business in, it's more likely than not that your idea isn't as great as you think
