Sorry, was meant to be 31-35. Typo. You voted in the right bin =]

Just randomly curious on the average age of HN users around here.

I prefer the old adage of focus on what you're doing and ignore what others (including competitors) are doing. It takes away from your focus and spreads yourself thin. It is just a…

They are currently not available in the US probably because of that reason but have seemingly have approval in the UK

Steve Jobs does have kids. I'm sure they're groomed from birth (kidding). All jokes aside, only time will tell if someone else has the chops and vision Steve Jobs does will step up…

1. There isn't a shortage of companies including startups looking for programming talent. They are everywhere. 2. Just because the above fact is true does not mean they will hire j…

I assume current monetization is by in-app ads? I came to this assumption base on the fact that the app is free and I have yet to download it. Either that or you charge people to b…

It's going to be difficult to find many places that have four bedrooms in that area much less affordable. Most in that area are two bedrooms with some three bedrooms. If you guys d…

Should have been a poll. Short answer, interested if it's local to the Bay Area (where YC is located)

I don't have direct examples but as a long time marketer, I can tell you the elements on a page is more important than if the site looks pleasing. Ugly designs can convert extremel…

Where are you guys pulling the business open hour data from? (I hope not Yelp since they're hours and filtering are all wrong in my experience). This is something I've been trying …

Depends on your business/product and the business model

LOL I don't think you could get Steve Jobs to leave Apple even if you offered $10T much less $10B but I kid. On a more serious note, I agree a large part is due to how much you're …

I know HN usually have people posting hiring posts where startups would list any available positions they have openings for but I figure why not the opposite. So I was curious whic…

Open source is fine but internships (free), for example in the state of California, are restricted to work that does not get added to an employer's profits. If it does, it violates…

1. A Web Base Resume that doubles with a link to download a clean PDF version. 2. A list of projects you've worked on in the past. Interactive and ones people can play around with …

To that note, I want to add there are legal implications to using someone's free help in a for profit business in certain states.

I looked at your original question than the one you ended up asking about (which I think differs slightly from just the general idea of the title itself), so I'll try to answer thi…

For some background info... 1. I've tried meeting people at local networking events of all kinds (technical events/meetups, cofounder events, conferences, hacking events, VC and fu…

I met my previous cofounder for our last startup through a mutual friend long before founding the company together. We were introduced to each other base on the fact that we were b…

I don't use the actual rental service. If I ever have any time at all, I'd generally browse the streaming service to see if there is anything good on. It's more of a luxury service…

This varies greatly by location among several other factors. The range can be quite large. It's like not answering the question at all. Would be helpful if you provided more detail…
