  8. Ask HN: Vesting, equity, salaries, etc.

    I'm preparing a startup and I'm hoping to learn how others have structured their equity sharing deals so I can consider my options intelligently. I can imagine one of the founders 'slacking off' once the business starts…

  11. Ask HN: How do I handle a million hits a minute?

    I've got a concept for an online service that will work properly only if the servers can receive and process a million + hits a minute for a minimum of one hour at a time. Each hit will post new data that needs to be…
