A quick search shows that they are also hiring front-end game developers, designers etc. This could be very interesting.

This is quite true. My Portland State advisor (ex-Bay Areaite) and his friends and angle investing everywhere but Portland. On a side note: any Bay Area Portlanders on HN?

Wouldn't it have been great (in terms of equity, leverage etc.) if you were at Google (search) in 2001-03 or Foursquare (location) in 2008? What we are trying to solve: - Given relevant experience, find and apply for a job in a field that's

The author is wrong. Why so serious? It was nothing more than a tease to excite the platform developers. Proper announcement/demo will happen at an appropriate time. - Attended the keynote + currently working at RIM as an intern

The mobile versions of FB etc. won't cut it if the next 5-10 years are going to be all about mobile. And thus the need for a true mobile-only social app or "social OS" pending already existing vertical data.

If you think about it for a second, we still don't have that great mobile-only social app yet. The mobile versions of FB etc. won't cut it if the next 5-10 years are going to be all about mobile. IMO, FB is extending its vertical with a mob

I don't think you have any clue on what you're talking about.

>>There's no way to have a logical public discussion with the teabaggers. The best we can do is to mimic them. Show them a mirror and hopefully some will realize how ridiculous they actually are... Or maybe they won't even realize

Absolutely, the bigcos (not Google) I'll be applying at probably won't appreciate my extra-curricular activities..

> In contrast Widows7 mobile UI is a confusing mess and very bland to be honest. There no "Wow" factor. And that's the point, Albert Shum, a Nike-alum and now one of the folks behind this UI, is making. It's less about chrome/gloss but

I'd go with a PhD program that has a Master's exist. (You will still apply and get admitted as a PhD student with full funding.) This helps if you're bored with the faculty, dept. etc. or a company wouldn't mind converting your internship t

I live in MTV. I'll buy you a beer. We should do a HN meetup (doesn't have to be startup-specific).

I think you should allow an option for secondary email address for communication. I don't want to use my corporate or school id for HN-related stuff.

Your other option is to apply for an F1 student visa and enroll as a full-time student. If you have money and decent academic profile then this is one of the last route to extend your stay, take classes in fall and spring, intern in summer
