I understand this perspective, believe me I do (I'm the post author). I'm also a back-end developer with very little design know-how. However, my point is just to bring awareness to the idea that design should be part of the product creatio

Respectfully, I disagree with your assessment of their business. Anybody who has ever worked for an enterprise startup knows that requests for custom installations and implementations of your product are a dime a dozen. No startup will ever

I appreciate you linking to this article but I wonder what you were doing browsing the archives of Esquire. To be honest, I did not see much of a conclusion from the article, but I enjoyed reading it. Also, I thought I would let you know th

Why is your conclusion that it can't scale? You are making 20% profit on these chairs. There are many people you can pay 30% of your margin and they'd be happy. You can automate the buying and selling, sourcing people who can do the "heavy

When I worked at Myspace, there was one (small) team dedicated to creating and maintaining internal services. The platform was called "slayer," short for service layer. It was built very well, for the most part. All the documentation and ca

I went through a similar situation earlier this year. I think it's pretty much always better to cut your losses, especially for your mental health. Most of the time, it's just not the right idea and you'll drive yourself crazy trying to mak

I've just installed Taazr on our machines, and it's already helped. I got an email alert when a user hit a function where we expected an object to always be defined but it was not (undefined is not an object). I was able to fix the problem

Don't buy one. I got the Samsung Series 5 3g Chromebook a month ago, and I definitely regret buying even at its low price point. The OS is still very unstable and not performant. The speakers are very bad (but I wouldn't watch video or list

Awesome, love the animation on resize. If you could hook this into twitter mentions/searches, and use their streaming api to bring in new tweets to the top in realtime, would be a cool visualization to put on an office monitor.

There are 50 or 60 million cable-TV connections in India at this point in time. The guys who set up the meters, splice the coaxial cables, make the connection to the house, etc., are very similar to these kids. They don't know what they're

Had the same idea myself as well, bought hnstats.com (although I admit, I looked for hntrend and hntrends.com)...not enough time in the world to do all of these things. Great job with this.

Just did, there's also happycow. None of these sites have very much content, they clearly are very old, and tattle is not tailored specifically for vegetarians and vegans - we're just good for those types of communities.

I'm solving the same problem at http://tattle.com . Our pitch is "Local business reviews and recommendations from people you trust." For me, as a vegetarian ( http://tattle.com/#communities/vegetarian ), the problem with Yelp has always be

It doesn't say much without knowing how many were sold. Maybe he sold only the 6 or 10 from the box. Why assume either way?

For 1, I guess we need to know what % of consumers use credit cards/would prefer to use credit cards vs. cash only. With 600m CCs in circulation in the US, I do not think it's fair to say that customers who pay with credit/debit cards is a

Are we sure these are lessons we want to take? Forcing a user to pay with currency (let alone foreign) makes accounting harder, and renders their shop useless to compete with other shops that do have card readers for a very large percentage

What I've done for now is only updated the history/hashtag when hitting enter, similar to Google Instant. They have some other conditions in there as well, but there's not a whole lot of a use-case on here for wanting to use the back button
