    Would anyone be interested in disrupting this space? My friend and I have been working on something we quite like that deals with subjectivity/ethics concerns, but it's a tough spa…

    Be positive. Stay determined. Keep Hustling. It sucks to be rejected with anything in life, but you only truly fail if you give up. You all seem smart and there are some great idea…

    "Once that barrier is gone I think it can create a much more immersive gaming experience that would benefit all gamers." I wonder about this. I think the lack of tactile feedback a…

    It's important to be social (people want to work with social and nice* people) but it's probably not important to be a socialite--you know what I mean. Just remember that life is a…

    "Programming has never been a strong passion of mine", if you look at the real successful people--the people that are happy, they do things that they are passionate about. If you'r…

    I want to prelude my question with my own personal belief: I think Paul Graham and company are not only ethical, but good human beings. Is there ever a risk of unintentionally assi…

    For those struggling with privacy concerns, I have a very workable (albeit ugly) simple solution to this problem that actually works: Create a second Facebook account. You'll likel…

    A lot of book publishers now use facebook likes as a way of determining whether to buy manuscripts from specific authors--which is ridiculous because of things like fivver. I've st…

    Yep, it has to do with Canadian law and the desire to retain a Canadian Cultural identity (thus we protect our Cultural industries). I don't think that applies any more though--or …

    I'm not a scientist, and this is perhaps irrelevant to this thread, but since Jayzee is here, I just wanted to say how much I admire the charming video they've had on their site. N…

    I've noticed a few teams in the NHL use iPads on the bench-- besides tracking ice time, and perhaps monitoring heart rate (I think the Sabres are the only ones who monitor this dur…

    Kaleidoscope is going to be massive! I told my sister about it this morning, and within an hour all of her non-Iphone friends were using it. I think you really stumbled onto someth…

    Do you think there is ever a risk to being "over-funded"? I know it sounds stupid, but it's an honest question.

    There was a great comment in the VB comments about how the ads are more distinctly targeted--and that makes a lot of sense and is reason enough to pay a bit more per CPM, but in no…

    I think the smart money is probably to pay off your debt, but I'm going to repeat what an older gentlemen once said to me, because it meant so much to me. "Sooner, rather than late…

    Hey davj, I'm working away on learning javascript as well (currently fueled by codecademy!) any tips for starting a project like this? I'd be really interested in hearing how you t…

    Startups are a lot of work, and I am sure you're starting to realize that with the hours you put into it every day (it gets worse!)--and while I'm sure you could do it, as you soun…

    I'm more interested in seeing what Mr. Milner will do with Zynga than any of his other investments, especially since ZNGA just closed higher than it's IPO for the first time the ot…

    From a purely artistic standpoint, imitation is a large piece of the modern creation process, if only because of it's increased use in modernism/postmodernism. Everyone's influence…

    You know what, I agree but there's a right and wrong way to approach the problem, especially with kids. I mean that's why parents should be involved in the first place in situation…

    Is there any actual evidence of this? I'd be really eager to refute this, but I'd be more interested in learning it was true. Most "New Studios" I know fall into the exact same tra…

    This was a problem I was faced with, and I decided to just do both. So far it seems like the right step if only because I'm able to learn on the fly and there's a bit of a pressure…

    I've never been even a fly on the wall in such circumstances, so I can't comment on the accuracy of what you are saying but look back to the text... "Like real world resourcefulnes…
