Nice job! This is really slick. Have you considered other pricing models? One approach that comes to mind: - Allow the user to use the full tool without ever having to sign-up. - C…

Thanks for sharing. Adding another podcast anecdote here — one that made me chuckle — from Scott Belsky in his interview on Tim Ferriss' podcast: > I remember my father, as an orth…

I don't think it's fair to use that one small piece of Netflix lore as the counter example to the point of the article. I'd categorize Reed Hastings as having one of the more long-…

No. If you read the comment you'll see that I'm not proposing that the slow drivers speed up -- but just that they get out of the passing lane. In fact, to your point about motorcy…

I've felt the same way about "slow as hell left lane campers" for years and thought that maybe — if states never did anything to fix it — there might be a commercial solution to fi…

I love the GIF in the article and how it was copyrighted in 2000 about an event that would happen in 2017. I'm a reader/follower of N. N. Taleb and agree with him about how difficu…

The video you linked to was interesting - thanks for sharing - but I didn't follow how that's related at all to self-driving cars driving around looking for parking. The video seem…

I read GP's last paragraph as distinguishing between the use of "disabled people" vs. "people with disabilities," rather than between the use of "disabled" (or words with the same …

One obvious exception is the very VC whose blog post you're commenting on. Fred seems to have the same qualities of "The Product VC," but has developed them despite not having exit…

Side note: Two weeks ago, a friend told me that dogs turn their bodies to poop in a north-south axis. I couldn't believe it and couldn't believe that I hadn't noticed before. So th…

Building out both sides of a two-sided market is extremely hard. While this decentralized system might be appealing to drivers, Uber and Lyft have created such a great experience f…

This stood out to me, too. On the one hand, hearing him say it is a little unnerving. On the other, it's oddly comforting to know that he truly believes we're in a race against the…

The book Drive, by Daniel Pink, does a good job of explaining the differences between intrinsic and extrinsic motivations. I recommend the book regardless, but especially if this t…

> I doubt Google wants to be reliant on a third-party company with reputation problems to introduce these cars to the world. This is a great point that may not be getting enough pl…

There's something funny (ironic?) in the fact that you consistently misspell the name of one of your Golden Goose countries (Colombia). I don't meant to sound like I'm sitting on a…

To add to the anxiety that some men are probably feeling about this app, Lulu obnoxiously uses a homepage photo in which the women look like they're acting at best mischievous and …

I was surprised to go through these comments (including with a command-F) and not find mention of the recent news of the Uber driver charged with raping a customer. While that stor…

I agree. Ideas are a dime-a-dozen, especially ideas that are the type to languish on a shelf indefinitely. Startups are all about execution. It's with this in mind that I find the …

I agree. I like the section in The Lean Startup on the related idea of the 'concierge MVP', whereby you're serving your initial customers very manually to really understand their n…

Out of curiosity, where does all the used shrink wrap go when winter is over? I'm picturing a whole house's worth of plastic wrap ending up in a landfill or floating its way out to…

For anyone else wondering what "mofo" is (see the article's screenshot of the daily push notification), its full name, Mofongo, shows up here: https://www.munchery.com/menus/mofo-w…

This comment reminded me to ask something I had been wondering: does anyone know if there have been any conversations (friendly or otherwise) between the guys at the Chicago-based …

I've seen a lot of these articles about the effectiveness of facebook ads in the months leading up to - and now in the days following - the ipo. The recent ones sometimes come acro…

This situation presents an interesting contrast with that of Instagram. Here you have a site generating revenue - and more importantly profit - that is on sale for 0.00048 the sale…

Prior to July: Buenos Aires, Argentina (REMOTE is possible during this period). After July: Large city in the U.S. Lead Developer We are Bungolow, a startup putting the "RAVE" back…
