Re:Ask HN: What is the best CS program for Masters in Germany on Monday February 01, 2016 @06:17AM (#11011086)
Probably the Hasso-Plattner Institute: http://hpi.de/en.html

Hard to get in there and i think the deadline just passed.

It is "IT Systems Engineering" not directly CS.

Thanks! A lot of great advice.

I'm really good at public speaking. This is one of my greatest strength so it is a no brainer how to do a presentation where i communicate my vision. But i never had to "close a deal". That is where i'm struggling. So how much does it divide from that?

Can you recommend any online resources?

Ask HN: First time pitch in front of a big company. What do they want to hear?

Hi,in two weeks i have the first opportunity to talk in front of a really big potential customer (together with other 20 startups). Everyone has 3 minutes. We definitely solve a problem for them - so there is a use case, a problem, a solution and we provide value.How do i make sure to stand out of the others?

Re:Hacking strength: Gaining muscle with least resistance on Thursday December 24, 2015 @05:39PM (#10789800)
Excuse me but since when is it more weight and less repetitions that lead to strength? It is the other way around. Less weight, more repititions -> strength. A lot of weight, less repetitions -> size gains.

What a great way to get over it
Wouldn't that just result in duplicate content?
E.g. if it is the first blogpost you made. Chance are higher on medium to get it spread. Don't you think?

Ask HN: When should i post on our company blog, when on Medium?

Hi,i believe that it is worth it to have valuable content (the kind that is actually worth a blogpost) on our own company blog. At the same time i'm a bit afraid to miss the attention i could get on Medium.Also: i don't want to have our medium blog on something like blog.example.com because for SEO purposes it is better to have example.com/blogWhat is your take on this?Best

Good decision.

I'm really excited to see this shiny new PHP version running on our servers. There are a lot of new features: http://php.net/manual/en/migration70.new-features.php and especially huge performance advantages according php.net ("Improved performance: PHP 7 is up to twice as fast as PHP 5.6")

Frameworks like Laravel already support PHP7 :)

https://www.stomt.com You can give feedback by just finishing a sentence. Like a mix of Twitter and reddit. Looks promising but seems to be still in Beta.
It would be nice to have a "Demo"-button to be able to display it immediately. Could be only temporary available for 24h.

Why don't you provide an example? Don't want to run it.
I discuss the ideas of others and mine on https://www.stomt.com

I'm really excited of what will come. There is a great list of tools for Polymer developers.
