This is what main stream media propaganda looks like.

No, she did not; she attended the funeral of a leader of a US-designated terror organization.

I cancelled their account. It has a weird policy of deleting backups from hard drives that have not been connected within the last 3 months. Very weird policy.

I think that unless it is for a over critical application like internet banking, SMS authentication is too much of a hassle for most users.

Another thing is that the fav icon is too small to use for any meaningful notification.

Re:Ask HN: losing faith in the startup where I'm employee #1

I have already been once where you are today. My simple suggestion would be to leave on a good note and go pursue something better. There are many more guys who are looking to join a startup and I am sure your bosses will get hold of someone else. Given the fact that your company does not actually server any active customer, 1 month of No-Development would not be of much harm to the company owners.

Thanks for the reply. And Glad to know I am talking to the Nasdaq CTO :-) Anyways, I thing the consul officer did not have much idea about how tech companies function and she must have expected a CEO, CTO to be an aged guy. In that case, is she not aware of Facebook, Pinterest, Twitter???
Ask HN: Denied US Visa As I am too young to be a CTO, Now What?
I am a 24 year old guy who is the co-founder and CTO of a 1.5 Million dollar web / mobile software services company based out of Mumbai. Most of our clients are from the US. This was my first US visa interview and I got rejected.The consul officer asked me how could I become a CTO a such an young age and it does not make any sense to her.I was asked only four questions by the Consul...
