I haven't used a resume in 10 years. Maybe if it was more relevant, that would change.

And the name PG... very sketchy

It's pretty useful if you're looking for an overview of the US; it's pretty useless if you're just looking for info about silicon valley.

I really don't understand the negativity. They have an awesome team that's built an awesome product. No, it's not finished (hence the money to hire more engineers) and yes, there a…

Do what you have to do. AOL is no worse for having someone sleeping on their couch.

To be fair, that's what I would do if I was doing a legit product- mock up the t's and bags, then get them printed once the money is received.

These past two statements illustrate pretty clearly why very little research has been done on this subject. One mention of LSD, or many drugs for that matter, and you have people j…

True, but changing the little checks to little middle finger bullets would have been a much more elegant method of retaliation.

I've only known Geoff for a short while now, but this will be a huge benefit to YC. Geoff has a great eye for product development and can really strip an idea down to its core elem…

That's good, I never thought Stanford made sense as a choice for NYC. Don't get me wrong, Stanford is an exceptional school, with great tech credentials, and has spawned a unique s…

When I started my very first web business and didn't know any better, I almost blew $1000 on a couple angel groups that I know with the wisdom of hindsight would have been a comple…

You can also take a picture of most things- it's a little less accurate, but it still works. Also, when a store puts their own barcode over one, I generally don't feel any guilt ab…

Profit margin as the metric for measuring "interesting"? There are lots of reasons fb could be considered interesting, and profit margin is only one and waaay down on the list. How…

I was pretty excited about Google moving sharing to Google+ as I like Google+ and I think making it easy to share will be crucial to success. That being said, I hate the new Google…

I think it depends on the kid. Speaking for myself, I would have loved that as a kid, so much that you don't even realize you're learning important things. There are probably plent…

I can understand- at my last job (multi-national CPG manufacturer) the code on all the internal webpages wouldn't even display in Firefox. Between the IT workload and general paran…

I'd emphasize more that you can use the service without teachers giving the students their personal numbers- I can see it on the first page, but it doesn't jump out at you. Another…

I definitely agree with the risks, but I also have a couple friends (mid 20s) that are high school teachers that have many of their students numbers stored in their phones cause th…

Yea, but everyone thinks they have an "amazing idea". That just comes with the territory of being an entrepreneur. If you can't get out there and convince others of your idea (via …

I'm a big fan of this move by Cornell, but not, I think for the same reasons as most. First, I can't fault journals for charging fees. After all, they need to make money, and as lo…
