Yes but according to the article, he wanted his normal salary and the equity. So the only part of your comment that applies is leaving a stable job for an unstable one. This is a risk but not a big risk at all if the…
I think the issue that people are picking up on is that if that is how you spend your own money, it is likely that you will spend company money in the same way making you a riskier investment. I know my comments haven't…
But prior to that you say: Inspired, I hacked out the feature that was the answer to the flunked question and used it on the partners. If it was such an easy feature to add and so important that you had several strong…
But the more valuable it is the more unlikely it is that it will be given away. Is spending time and money on the extremely small chance of getting hold of zap.com smarter than using those efforts to get hold of zap.co…
I guess the post can be seen as a cautionary tale about the dangers of spending too much time on your domain name and not enough on your product.
I do not understand your comment at all. To what do you vehemently disagree? That it is a slim chance of securing the domain name? If so, why does the rest of your comment discuss how important YC is to UK programmers?
That depends on how you define "a top 10% executive founder".
I felt like that at first but I think the issue is that the potential employee wanted his normal salary in addition to equity. He would not undertake any risk for that equity and that can definitely lead to problems in…
Besides the conflict of interest, I find the fact that a significant portion of their articles are about themselves, or other tech journalists, extremely irritating. Like when a documentary is about the filmaker making…
It is frustrating how the American government is trillions of dollars in debt, waging pointless/dangerous wars and quickly turning America into a police/welfare state but instead of worrying about foreign and monetary…
I feel that the four day work week is the sweet spot for productivity and I will institute this when I start hiring. 28-32 hours of work a week is better than 15-20 hours of work and 20 hours of facebook and lolcats.
A very refreshing landing page. Simple design that explains what you do. Looking forward to you coming out of beta.
Surely they realised that it was only a matter of time.
It would be interesting to read a preview of the book. I think that releasing software quickly is completely different to releasing a physical item quickly. You continue working on the software and update as necessary…

+1. I really like bitbucket, especially the free private repositories. I will definitely look to buy products/services from you when the time comes. Hope you get hold of the .com domain name soon.
I agree that apple did bring it all together rather well (over a sustained marketing and development phase) but I just don't see how anyone could think that smart phones similar to those that we have today weren't…
"Would the innovation have happened if Apple hadn't driven it? Not any time soon." I am fascinated by this statement. What evidence do you have to support it?
Well every one knows that becoming severely ill is a possibility for anyone, that's what insurance is for. Can't afford insurance? Give up unhealthy habits to lower your rates, get a better job, look after family so…
Why on earth should the responsibility (of those that will become redundant) fall on the early adopters of a new technology? If I had become a fax machine expert would it be fair to charge a tax on those that began to…
I can access it from South Africa.
Some good advice, I think our most valuable lessons come from failure. One point that wasn't touched on, and that may be significant in this case, is that is can be very difficult building a business around a domain…
