How do you reconcile your ability to use and understand complex technology like computers and the internet, but at the same time legitimately believe it is possible for some dumb hick to find some golden tablets that…
Adtech businesses generate revenue.
What kind of employment do you expect to have handed to you with a 2-year mathematics degree? Perhaps if you stayed in school longer or got a degree in something less useless?
A 70 year old person (read: a person who had 70 years to save for their retirement) depends on a government program that pays them a minimum wage while pretending to do part-time work? This sounds like an incredible…
The guy in that video you linked has the douchiest face I have ever seen.
It's clear the comment you're responding to bothered you a lot because your thinly-veiled compliments do nothing but reveal your insecurities. The guy you are responding to is correct - this is more a story of a lazy…
As opposed to what? Being another entrepreneur, bootstrapping genius raking in million dollar exits? Are those the only viable life paths these days?
Reading this, it looks like your app was a house of cards because that's exactly how you designed and built it. It was only when it started to hurt your productivity did you realize the mistake. Honestly, who thought it…
Why are threads like this allowed on HN? Surely joke threads like this, intending to rip-off and poke fun at "Who's Hiring" threads are against HN guidelines, no? Does the community actually find these threads useful or…

I've turned down many $100 million offers for my side project startup. I've even turned down a few billion dollar offers. I'm holding out for $100 billion for my side project startup. I'm a student entrepreneur.
Personally, I try to remain in the 120% range at all times and NEVER dip below 110%. In my experience, just settling at a 100% output level is a great way to get identified as a slacker. As a manager, I've cut many…
Does "entrepreneur" really just mean relentlessly pursuing riches? Every person I've met that describes themselves as an entrepreneur is only interested in their own personal wealth, but they always seem to have some…
Is "back to front" how Brits say "backwards"?
People like you who throw the word "addict" around willy-nilly like that have no idea what addiction truly means. You got sick once and now you march around proclaiming "I was an addict", despite the opinions of nearly…
I don't mean to diminish your experience... but "pure unadulterated hell" is having a SO that loves you, a stable place to live, sleep, and eat, as well as a stable career? If all of that is what "pure, unadulterated…
You're asking for an example of something that is worth more to a purchaser than they paid for it?
I would pay for a monthly subscription for any teenager's monthly mailed "box" service. I currently subscribe to over 3 dozen such services. It's sort of an addiction... Anyway, if you are a young entrepreneur building…
I agree. Defrauding investors isn't a "woops" sort of mistake. They deliberately lied about what they had and sought to exploit the misconceptions their company perpetrated for personal gain. If people who do this…
I thought these types of comments weren't allowed on Hacker News? I'm curious why a mod hasn't detached this comment yet.
What is the point of threads like this? Is the OP trying to be witty or humorous? I don't believe these threads contribute to any discussions on this website. They are deliberately created as a joke.
I'll post my personal experiences with this software - it was not enjoyable and I felt it was mostly a waste of time. I didn't feel like it effectively conveyed the idea and purpose of the lessons it was trying to give.…
I've spent more than I am willing to admit on Dota 2 skins....
Your friend should be able to easily learn everything he would need to know to land a software eng job in no longer than 1 month by reading online tutorials. I have watched several of my friends go from absolutely 0…
