    Agreed, most "cloud" software slowly try to lock you in, only to lose it in a few years when they get sold, or shut shop, or don't get the next round of funding. It's a pain, and I…

    I can appreciate how you feel, but the winner writes history. Out of curiosity, what was the name of the tech accelerator that you're referring to?

    Why are people downvoting your question? Seems like a legit thing to ask. I suspect HN behaves a little like how many folks treat their national army... you can't ask a question th…

    Dude you seem to have a problem. Beating folks into one inch of their life looks to me a significant overreaction. I understand your frustration, I've wanted to behave similarly ma…

    Studies will also show that inducing and keeping them in coma is one of the foolproof ways to ensure a person never tells another lie over a period of 10 or 20 or 30 years. Control…

    This is a skill I want to develop. Could you give us the name of the book please?

    I think parent is saying something similar to you, but you've just laid it out in more detail. They didn't say the other things you've mentioned don't matter. They said that the pr…

    Ask HN: “Speak in the language of your customer” or “don't use jargon”?

    Not defending him, but seems like a chump who had exhausted every alternative, but won't talk about it honestly, and prefers to go with "this wasn't a failure, you were amazing, I …

    I want to point out that they weren't necessarily building a great lock. The "great product" bit seems to be the usual consumer startup rhetoric by the CEO, which many people fell …

    It's good this happened, else we'd have another Juicero on our hands. Ridiculous price, beautifully over engineered product, a slight update to a centuries old problem, but at leas…
