    We actually do have a JS API [1] but we wanted to focus on a quick demo for developers rather than an integration wizard. I think it's important for people to understand the premis…

    We struggled to really explain the value prop in a 2 minute video, for sure. The concept of proactive (as it exists in our beta) is more in the sense of "fix their problem before t…

    Thanks for the feedback, and if you have any specific ideas of how we can better explain it - please shoot them my way. And yeah, we'll see about getting rid of the marketing-speak…

    Awesome! Can't wait to see it, and let me know if I can help out on the API side at all.

    Sounds plausible to me. I suppose it doesn't matter how fast the SSD is... it has to restore (up to) 16GB from disk to memory before it's ready.

    I haven't seen this particular issue, but I have had a whole bunch of strange, likely firmware-related issues on my Retina. For instance, sometimes the screen just won't shut off w…

    Looks like it was heavily inspired by this (from ~2010): http://culturedcode.com/status/ And I really like the concept, but I believe that the value of a "status dashboard" is that…

    Nice phrase, I'll have to keep that in mind - at least when talking to hackers. Re: replacement of Facebook, I don't think it's realistic for someone to develop an actually decent …

    I've been using Backbone at Earbits (YC w11) [1] since February and have been very happy with it. We're running a pretty complex AJAX app that streams music along with providing a …

    Sure, but I bet you could still look at all 10 photoshop manipulations and say "yep, those are all based on that original photo".

    An interesting viewpoint, but I think the differentiation here lies in the degree of "artistic" creation. Put 10 photographers in a room with Miles Davis and you'll get 10 pretty d…

    Wondering what everyone does to keep a super high-level view of what's going on at a small or growing startup. Who's working on what with who, how they're progressing, and post-lau…
