It's not an observation, it's an opinion, and definitely not an inarguable one.

When I see constructive feedback, I'll take that into consideration.

They're supposed to get branding perfect before launching a pre-beta signup form? What if they don't get the necessary traction, investment or licenses? Sounds like a terrible waste of money and bad prioritization for a startup in their s

Yeah, a few weeks ago I felt particularly stressed and depressed. I stopped reading TechCrunch and HackerNews for several days, and found myself feeling significantly better. Then I got back to doing both but noticed something interesting.

This is the next Obama-Os. It might be unappreciated by some, but you definitely just got looked at by some investors.

Well, at least there will be a broad, diverse menu with new food options being added regularly.

This is an inaccurate assessment. Our experience was exactly what YC say it will be for most founders. We applied and were rejected because we were little more than an idea and two business founders. We applied again next batch with an a

Barring a very, very good explanation, this is a tragedy. Jeff Price has been tirelessly devoted to unleashing the potential of artists through technology, with one of the fairest deals an artist can get independent of a label. I can only

That is not accurate. You can have more average ad impressions per day by putting 15 ads on each page instead of 2, but with the same number of users, the performance of more impressions just gets worse with more ads.

More amazing, given that over half of the companies are from last year and this year, and it is mostly agreed that they have only gotten better and better by Demo Day.

Jason - I thought this was a great story and a lesson to be learned for hustlers who want to know how to stand out from the wannapreneurs. But I also felt it implied an assumption that technical people don't need to prove anything. It get

This is an awesome guide, Bryan. Thank you for putting this out there. One thing I noticed missing is how frequently is too frequently to post. We started queuing up 8 posts a day at one point, one every three hours, and found that our Ed

Edit: Earbits IS really happy with that sort of ROI. If it stayed like that at just 10 times the scale, an artist could make $890 in net monthly profit, which is nothing short of a miracle for most musicians. At 100 times, a very attainabl

While adaptation might be necessary, to say debating this topic can't change the future is inaccurate. I have this debate with plenty of people, and I know at least a few who have changed their behavior as a result. Educating people about

You could: A) provide a disclaimer. "Hey, this isn't really a flirt tape, I just thought you would like these." OR B) stop being a nancy boy.

A bummer. Now, that is classic. I remember using public payphones just a little over a decade ago. One time some kids had put Vaseline on the earpiece. That was a fun time. Now we have a phone in our pocket that we can talk to and have

More zeroes, love or drugs won't make you happy. But all three together works pretty well.

Fair enough. I'm not saying eating anything vegetarian, no matter how processed, is good for you. Just clarifying that, in my opinion, avoiding meat if you can is healthier.

Vegetables are food . And even better still, they have zero cholesterol and basically provide much the same benefits without the bad side effects. Say what you want about the flip-flopping nature of nutrition trends, there is very little
