Great idea and good execution. Any idea on monetization? The video needs work; the main risk perceived will be to have bad design applied and not be caught. The video is basically a demo of that scenario.

I've used Braintree extensively with their subscriptions, and would not recommend using them. Their documentation is spotty, they don't inform customers about required changes to an implementation, and most importantly their faile

A while back I had an issue with Lastpass settings not being properly enabled on my account. I discovered that all settings were rendered, and in order to disable them they used 'display: none' rather than not rendering them on th

There's thousands of bots with obviously recognizable pictures from Thisdoesnotexist on both LinkedIn and Quora. Quora is arguably more insidious as these are ranked and spreading huge amounts of disinformation. Someone should really s

I interviewed a young man who was doing this kind of work for about six months in Ireland a while back for a completely different role. It was quite clearly mentally taxing and he broke down crying mid-interview. I ended up canceling my fol

Not entirely illogical, if something is expected to generate a lot of media attention, the case may be kept private to prevent the 'court of public opinion' to influence the outcome. Everything is still documented and shared after

That would cause systemic problems for the person and almost certain death. Platelets are filtered out of the blood by the spleen and then stored or cleaned up there. The spleen likely just cleans them up as per instructions from the immune

I've had the exact some happen (It's rare, but here I am), including a transient ischemic stroke while having virtually no platelets. There is no real understanding for the cause of immune thrombocytopenia in the first place, but

Negotiate for converting your equity into debt that needs to be paid off at certain events. Easiest way to get the most money out of him. Lawyers can help you set that up in a contract, you just have to negotiate on the value of the debt.

Interestingly, the damages can be calculated and definitely add up. Restaurants spend a lot of time and effort to build up loyal, lifetime customers that are created by giving them three exceptional experiences in a row. There is a lot of r

I don't really see the difference. Care to elaborate?

I don't really see how this is worth a 1.12B valuation - even with this amount of users. I also think that the pricing for Slack is over the top. I used Flowdock https://www.flowdock.com/ for about a year for a distrib

Although I'm not particularly familiar with the latest in US trademark laws, in most European trademark cases it can be argued that the name "Paper" is too descriptive to be defended. At the same time the fact that both are i

To be perfectly honest, people can steal your idea. Case in point, back before we launched our first startup, I went out to a trade-fair asking people their opinion about our conceptual product as if it was something we had already built. I

Very curious to see how much they've fixed. Last year I bought a brand-new laptop which came with Windows 7. The first two months the laptop was running completely perfectly, until Windows 8 came out and I decided to upgrade. Since the

I've done a fair bit of interviews with our own asynchronous video interview tool (Interactly), and I always offer people feedback on why I decided not to proceed with them. Only about 20% of people actually want to hear feedback. One

I agree that the name "Audiour" has a few issues, but the cheap copycat issue isn't that big in my opinion. You're clearly doing something else. A copycat name would be if you were using the name "imgour" or so

I actually did something similar to this about 5 years ago with Flash. By applying a complex filter to a flat layer to make the layer behave and look like it was a liquid drop on a glass surface. Essentially I just embossed it with 4 differ

It's funny, because Lyme is one of those diseases where "it could be anything" to the outsider because there are no external indicators that something is wrong with them. Back when I was younger I got Lyme disease at the age

I see a fairly simple solution. The issue Adobe has is essentially that Ninite is taking away the choice of users to install this software when installing Adobe Flash. Ninite is therefore taking away the revenue that Adobe would get from t

Cool product! We've been working on this stuff (and a lot more) over at VideoView.com. Right now we're working on an entirely new video interview recording application which is kind of like a very extended version of this. Our experience

My guess? Founders at work is largely about established firms and this book is all about startups in their startup stage.

I don't think depression necessarily means you shouldn't do a start-up. People who know what depression is and know how it works can actually quite often cope with it better than people who don't know what depression is. If all you've ever

Fixed, you're absolutely right - that font should only be used for headers.

Cool, another potential tool against poorly readable sites. I just created http://cantheysee.it/ for web developers to (roughly) simulate and test for users with poor eyesight.

The metaphor doesn't really hold up; it's rather like you went to the administrative desk of AT&T 1000 times, asked the person behind the desk "Can I please have document 001?" and they simply handed it over without questions each of th

Considering Assange has probably been pretty careful and paranoid, I wouldn't be surprised if this was the strongest thing "they" could find.

Honestly though, it feels to me like the financial industry has a lot to lose in this aspect as well. If this system gets a lot of traction, financial institutions (such as Visa and Mastercard) suddenly open themselves up to quite a bit of
