The interview is a bit long (around 45 minutes) with some fluff (what are your favorite gadgets?) but Reznor clearly recognizes in what direction the music industry and online content are going, which I found very interesting. Here's a quic

For me, the most important trait I look for in a co-founder is trust. If that element is absent, I think building a long-term partnership would be too difficult, no matter how wonderful they may be in other areas. They also need to be reli

As far as telling other people goes, I find that HN comes up most often when I tell my friends about the interesting stories I find here. The reaction from non-technical people is usually something to the effect of: "Where the hell do you f

But he's also looking for "more deals and equal treatment". It looks like YC was way ahead of him (Adeo) on this one.

My first piece of advice would be this: don't bank on YC funding. Sure, it would be great if you got accepted, but that shouldn't stop you from pursuing your idea. Especially if it is still just an idea - work on it at home, in your spare t

I found this really interesting, because we covered this exact topic in a psychology course that I took while in university, and I think that it is often mis-quoted / mis-used. The conclusion that was drawn from scientific research was that

I'm not confusing anything, just restating what he said in his interview with Jessica. The actual quote is "When you get very, very tired -- and I had been up for four nights all night long; Steve and I got mononucleosis -- your head gets i

I just started reading 'Founders at Work' and find it kind of funny that they cite Steve Jobs in this article, when during his interview, Woz said that some of their best ideas (when building Apple) came after several days of not sleeping.

Personally, I was most impressed with the concept of BuyPlayWin -- the current design isn't great, but I think the idea is very novel -- if the prices are right, and they can reach a critical mass, I could see this becoming quite popular, e
