NGL, the pronunciation of Waikiki as “Why, Kiki?” made me laugh out loud.

This is the same thing I tell entrepreneurs. At least with startups you can get lucky. Writing (or producing) something memorable requires something more.

The author keeps mentioning capital-E “Elites” and never names one or even defines what that means. My Spidey senses go off whenever someone uses an undefined label to describe a sweeping societal change. And, yes, it is all about real es

It’s interesting that Graham doesn’t seem to say what Founder Mode looks like in any capacity, other than referring to a few outlier founders. Less than one quarter of companies that go public do so with their original CEO. Most people woul

“they also told me my usage was higher than other developers...” Next you’ll tell me that they’re NOT actually experiencing higher-than-normal call volumes!

Not relying on your network sounds like terrible advice. Employee: “Hello, hiring manager. I know an incredible candidate for that job we posted last week.” Hiring manager: “Thanks, employee, but we have hundreds of resumes from strangers,

I don’t think you’re following my point (I probably explained it poorly). People voluntarily agreed to follow the robots.txt model when they could have ignore it. To this day, a plurality of people seem to support that standard. That doesn’

With all the ad blockers out there, which functionally demonetize content sites, why isn’t there an ad equivalent to robots.txt that says “don’t display this site if ads are blocked”? So many good comments from several points of view in thi

Gaslighting has a very specific definition — lying to someone in a way that causes them to question their own reasoning or grasp on reality. For folks who are just finding out they never stood a chance because Google does indeed have a “sma

Has a lot of similarities to Knotwords ( https://playknotwords.com/ ). I like both implementations. Well done!

At least they didn’t say it takes courage to brick a perfectly serviceable product. That was last month.

I saw down below that you’re not familiar with Vampr, which is very similar to what your screenshots suggest. Moments like this always make me sad. Even a cursory web search would have surfaced Vampr, along with several other find-a-bandmat

I have no strong point of view and am interested in why you think safety is okay and financial auditing is not. Are both not about serving the interests of the public?

“He said that tours are limited because the foundation has only a few volunteer docents who are knowledgeable about the home…” Perhaps they could use some of the $35M in tax breaks to hire some docents?

I think like many people, the first couple of paragraphs inspired me to see what else was published on the site for more “context” about the author’s point of views. At this point, writing a good-faith rebuttal to the article seems unnecess

It sounds like you’re working with a number of services right now, so take this with a grain of salt. Joinrelentless.com does resume review and coaching and then gets people first interviews. Not cheap, but it’s nice to literally just have

Every time I am forced to endure shitty hold music for an extended period of time, my thought is, “let the CEO sit on hold for ten minutes and see how fast this gets changed.” What this means is I still want to believe that crap customer ex

About a year ago, I stopped consuming news cold turkey (save technology and movie news [the former work-necessary and the latter a personal vice]). I took the extra step of banning Twitter and Memeorandum at the router level, so that I coul

That opening story just broke my heart. As a parent of a child with a severe peanut and tree nut allergy, it has been completely drilled into me: If my child is exhibiting an allergic reaction, administer the EpiPen and call 911 for an ambu

Wondering how much of http://Crunchinator.com we're going to have to recode. The only people they have advance API access to were the paying customers. Hopefully it's not too much work, but then, we don't have 25

The author could have just as easily written "Cancer, as currently defined, does not exist" or "Arthritis, as currently defined, does not exist". In all of these cases, the the catch-all phrase is used to describe a hand
