I don't get it..I do not see how auctomatic can defend their company from eBay just redoing some of it's UI.

Oh he actually wrote a "it's-not-you-it's-me essay", I actually didn't think he was arrogant, until you mentioned that. If that is true, then he really is arrogant.

As true as this account may be, It would have been in the author's interest to not reveal it at all online, Since after all he still has equity in the company.

I disagree, I have different set of axioms than you. My axioms are based on morality and well-being. What are you axioms based on ?

The simplest answer is that many people believe the "free market wage" is not always the apropriate wage. Anyhow your defining the free market wage, as the wage the get paid if the…

If your making your clients install software, why not just make your clients install a specific broswer ?

But from what I have read, they just hacked together off-the-shelves technologies. Making new technology in the semi-conductor industry is often very expensive. Besides the skill s…

Im guessing they only have software advantages...seems unlikely they have actual technology without having an electrical engineer on their team.

Well this goes into the whole philosophical question of the word "freedom" and "free will"... It all depends what you mean by the word "freely". But unless you are actually rich, y…

"They don't make something people want." So I guess YC.News has become a cult.
