Is it possible to get a backup of the YC posterous.. or are they moving it?
Love the concept, but I don't think you need 14 grand. You already have a huge fanbase, and I'm willing to bet developers would love to help in building the platform.
That's what the bio section is for. HN is a minimalist piece of software that hasn't been updated in forever and probably never will be. We like it that way.
This I like. But why does moving the pieces up and down produce a sort of cylinder?
Link broken. "www" doesn't just work automatically, you have to setup another cname recond.
Just do it. As soon as you start thinking you need to "judge the demand" before executing an idea, you never will.
I was one of those kids back in the days of Runescape. I don't think reporters grasp what the term "coding skills" means.
Now I starve. I just went to papajohns.com, automatically redirected to a Facebook error page.

>perhaps you could convince him to sell honest products using honest techniques
Precisely what I'm after. It's hard to be convincing when my side of the argument isn't offering "40000/month on autopilot!"

My dad's a long time hacker, but recently fell into this trap of get rich quick affiliate marketing.My philosophy has always been to help people and do what you love. I emphasize offering real value to people, and I know everyone on HN tries to do the same. Basically scamming people and using immoral techniques to sell some useless product is something I want absolutely nothing to do with. It...

Nothing. I'm in a bit of a pickle. I don't want to launch something that isn't going to succeed, but it's incredibly hard to predict if an idea is really worth doing. Any tips?
