If you can get above the cloud base, it seems that the range could be unlimited. The plane doubles as a glider too...
This is a super sweet project. This represents the best in human kind. We just keep pushing the technological envelope of whats possible...
And NO fuel cost...

He seems like a very articulate and positive young man.
I am Polish, but I am convinced that we as a human kind should just pick one language and stick with it. All these languages are there to prevent us from freely exchanging the ideas. With the age of the Internet all of us should just start using English.
This will be a great tool for paragliders. I will post this on paraglidingforums
Thanks for the link.
Waring, this may be a fake video/viral ad for something similar to the "Liquid Mountaineering" one:
http://youtu.be/Oe3St1GgoHQPart 13/14 has this eerie look&feel of the "Blair Witch Project" to it:

Sigh, I wish it's not a fake and it will be possible to purchase something like this 10 years from now...
Impressive, did he release the app for d/l?
Push the envelope:
a. Get rich quick in Soviet Russia doing shady businesses
b. "Reinvest" the money in the US
c. Make even more profit.
Gaming both systems: Soviet and US and profit from both like a boss == priceless.
Good. That fucktard who introduced the SOPA should be promptly eliminated (from congress that is)...
Here are some of the potential qualities that I am looking in a business co‐founder:
‐ A good understating of the Sticky Frames project and a great enthusiasm for it.
- Good communication skills.
- Social Media expert as I am not one. My self promotion abilities are extremely limited. I would not mind my co‐founder to be the exact opposite. I’d admire that and try to emulate it.
- Someone who can help me out with PR Campaigns.
- Understanding of the operational aspect of running the business.
- “Wheal and deal” with investors, follow‐up with inquires, sales and pitch meetings.
- Communicate with users and follow‐up on their feedback. Make them happy with a least required effort.
- Gift for scouting both talent and opportunities… ”Opportunities Multiply When They Are Seized”
Contact me at computerefix at gmail dot com for more details..
Thanks

Sticky Frames is a messaging system that lets users display self generated and printed content
on their vehicles. Think of it as “blank” easily adjustable and removable bumper stickers that
are simple to make and print using nothing more than a home printer. The content of Sticky
Frames can be easily created and replaced at will.
I am looking for a person who could help with making the Sticky...
Awesome idea, now she will have enough orders to last a hundred years.
You are arguing just for a purpose of arguing. I am not going to play that game. The way of doing big business in Russia involves bribes, corruption, ties to organized crime, cronyism, very close ties to the ruling class and government, and also Russian security apparatus.
Also, the idea that a random "Russian Businessman" can just flash his money and be accepted as an investor in Silicon Valley should be in fact investigated by the FBI. We do not need to enrich "Russian Businessmen". We should be working with people from countries who are our close allies.
If you think that the only needed quality to be a billionaire in Russia is being smart, you are in fact disconnected from reality and shame on you for that - you should know better.
His mother and father were relatively hi ranked Soviet officials. He had it "made" in SU.
Also, the guy bought a 100 million dollar house. YES, he cares about the material comfort and luxury. If you don't, you live in a regular apartment or a sub- million dollar mansion.
pg is extremely naive if he thinks the this guy's money is not tainted. Actually, it does not take a genius to figure this out. IT IT IMPOSSIBLE to make that kind of money in Russia by playing according to the rules.
This is exactly why Yuri's Milner's involvement in YC is controversial. Most likely, given the political and economical climate in Russia he did not earn his wealth by playing fair.
Now some of that tainted money are being handled over to our best for a quick wash...
Here is the promo vid on Vimeo:

Please help to spread the word out for the guy, it is a sweet idea!

Matt has a great idea of designing a protective case around the Iphone4 and Iphone4S that is also compatible with all GoPro mounts...
I would totally buy this.
Iphone4S + the GoPro converter + the full 1080p HD videos == win!

This web site is very easy to navigate and it goes over 5000 years of historical treasures that are present in modern day Iraq.
Enjoy the presentation.
I've been looking for such a course/material since I've started learning CS. This loks like a great way of introducing my friends to CS and explaining what the Computer Science is all about.
From NAND gates -> to games in one course? YES!
StickyFrames are magnetic sheet protectors for whatever paper message or text you want to insert there. You can create messages easily by using custom web to print interface that is almost ready, then print them using your own printer. SF will come in 3 different sizes:
"bumper sticker" size, letter size, and legal size. FOr the back or side of your car...
"Student Driver", "Vote For X", "Car For Sale", etc, etc

I've requested a tech cofounder in this thread:
http://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=2416279
but I've managed without one. Now, the web platform of the StickyFrames project is almost ready. All I need is to add better headers and an informative text - which I am slowly modifying and adding at the moment.
I will need help with no technical aspects of launching a startup and a new product such...

Seriously, dude what the heck would you submit this here?
Do you know what hacker news is all about?
Can you read?
Great idea. My business partner is in HK, China. Another in Germany. I am in the US. This will come in very handy to coordinate meetings between us
I'd say a standard well written NDA that specifies the role of Mr. Zuckenberg would be sufficient to take over a significantly greater role in FB.
So, a standard NDA - very simple yet very effective in making sure your disclosure enjoys a good level of protection.
