I've been using Dragdis here and there. But not religiously. It is better than traditional bookmarking in my opinion.

Sadly, it's human nature to try to be the best at any cost. As the article suggests, the penalties should be high as it's very hard to police. So offenders should be scared straight. Plus, who cares what the penalty is if you are

what's "older"? I've been sitting at computers about 20 yrs, but I'm not 40 yet... I run, bike or swim. 1 or more of those every day. Looking into yoga, and some additional strength training (pushups, pull ups, core

Leaving a payroll provider can be difficult (especially if you have 401k, and other benefits tied into it). That said - it's worth switching to Zenpayroll. In my experience with Paychex and now Zenpayroll, Zenpayroll is a clear favorit

Because auto racing has been for the regular Joe? Auto racing (and really any motorsport) is extremely expensive and you need to pay to play. This is just another way to hate on people with money.

The main differentiator being that he wants companies to grow to be great (and valuation is a measure of that success), whereas traditional VC's and even entrepreneurs are looking for high valuation/exits as success, whether the c

I would distinguish them as enterprise requires a top down sales approach, while B2B can be either, but more often is a bottom up approach.

I think the median age reflects the types of companies in the batch. I think in general, younger entrepreneurs take on Consumer, maybe marketplace, and perhaps some dev tools and hardware. The remaining categories will likely have older, mo

I've heard this from drivers too. Lyft passengers are generally happier and more social, while Uber don't want to be bothered.

Adapters will exist for now. I think a solution to a single port (though, having more than 1 is probably better) is great. Why do we need 8 different port types? We should have one and it should do everything. But we should have 2 of them.

This is fantastic. I've been wanting to see something like this! I'd love to see a partnership with GoPro and get these into live events (once GoPro can do live feeds). I'd love me some Red Bull Rampage, or Supercross footage

I think eating is a separate matter. Plus, eating (particularly slightly more solid food) takes longer to absorb, so if you eat after you are hungry you are just extending that hunger longer. That said - I've done many long (8-12hr cyc

I'm a believer in pickle juice. Used it at several 8hr+ cycling races. Cramping be damned. Also use take a swig or two after strenuous workouts to prevent cramping later that day.

Quiet morning. Clean up. Scan email / texts from overnight, dress. Coffee. Breakfast. Head out for a bike ride or run. Start working by 8. Work needed morning. Get up. Dress. Brush. Work.

the "bullets" were a short list (as noted). Want real examples? check out the startup school or Stanford course videos he has done.

I think by grabbing coffee, he was referring the time wasting that can happen when everyone becomes aware of your startup. Would be investors (as they should) want to meet, press, and a slew of others. The vast majority of those meetings wi

No, I got it. I just think when emotions are high, people don't always know how to act / react. Point being, people are still people. They will do dumb things that they wish they could redo. My story wasn't about how they tol

Those of use that worked through the first dot-com bubble can surely tell better stories than that. There is no graceful way to do it. One company I worked for, there were probably 200 people, and the CEO gathered everyone into a big room a

Yes, but if you throw in the fact that walkers have far fewer crashes to the pavement than walkers then it is not the same. And cars have seatbelts...

less than 1 domain? I have like 25 personally... and responsible for another 20 or so company wise. Raising the average.

I have a habit of buying domains on a whim. Figure <$12 is peace of mind for 12 months if you are going to use it. That said... you don't want a .co .... you want a .com - unless you are selling to developers, you can get away with

I've approached a domain purchase similarly, offering right around $2500. They came back with $500,000. Bought something else. Seems to have worked out just fine.

All he asked was if the income stopped. He didn't suggest not working (important work can yield 0 income too...). Nor did he suggest social isolation.
