HN is a great community. Just wondering what kind of people are active at HN: a uni student? an employee in a tech company? a founder of a new startup? an investor ? or??
Tell us who you are.
I think at one time that was safe advice to anyone talking about college, but I think now, unless you know the amount of debt involved and other details, you can't just glibly toss that off. There are many people and situations where going to college or staying in college is not the best idea.
Same, minus the ex- part. I live in an apartment with Cows and wish I had enough motivation and free time after my workweek (and school during the fall and spring) to throw together some android apps or some of my startup ideas. In my spare time I geek out about typography, music, and compilers.. or just sleep in.
I was checking out massify.com from your comment, and must say how valuable it looks. I'm a producer on a documentary (noapologiesmovie.com) and will def. be using massify's site for some of our upcoming work. Thanks!
I create adventure. I leave slain dragons in my wake. I build monuments, plant flags, discover wonders, and lead armies.
I sing duets, dance tangos, and play concertos.
I cook banquets. I wheel, make deals, and strike bargains. I purchase fruit in large quantities. I partake and imbibe. I articulate, expound, and drive home the point. I maintain a strong moral fiber and act with integrity.
I forge trails and bushwhack through jungles. When I am not walking, I am running. I sail and drive and fly and ride and crawl.
I write encyclopaedias. I learn, study, forecast, ponder, and calculate. I know the answer.
I am nice, warm, strong, creative, solid, confident, funny, intelligent, and a little crazy.
Someone who runs a few websites and wants to learn to write a programming language so I can write a "game" (simulation) as a teaching tool for one of them. I also want to more effectively monetize the work I do on the web so I can quit my day job and spend more of my time working on the things I believe in.
Uni student studying information systems (and computer science) working at the school as a web designer for various departments. Hanging out at HN for inspiration, motivation and knowledge.

Doubled in CompSci and English at a strong U.S. uni.
...or maybe I'm just a software engineer / small company owner ( SmartFlix.com / HeavyInk.com) outside of Boston...
