If it's small and sent by ePacket (assuming you are in the US), then it will arrive fairly quickly

No one knew Google's potential when they were starting, I would argue the same is true for snapchat. Maybe they are nearing their full potential or maybe they're just getting started. Either way, that is big assumption you are making

"Evan Spiegel showed his arrogance to the world by turning down the offers..." So because someone will not sell his/her company, that means the person is arrogant. Wow. Speaking of arrogance...

I don't see why it is a bad thing. There are multiple types of emulators out there, which is awesome!!! This way if someone has a low powered computer, he/she can use one of the "less accurate but speedy emulators", but if someone has the compute power OR wants to play a rare game the others can't handle, bsnes to the rescue

I think the person who is making soylent has been testing it for 6 years. There have been bumps along the way (ie: deficient on nutrients), but that is why it is still essentially in alpha/beta. They aren't saying it is perfect yet and so I don't see the reason to assume so

Thanks a lot for posting this. I'm joining a startup next week as the first round of employees and there are definitely some good lessons in this article and the updated version to keep in mind. Thanks again!!!

I don't think any of those are Open Source. There is OpenSolaris, but you didn't list that.

Why is this posted to Hacker News? It didn't seem at all related to programming or starting a business

As a "white liberal" in Cambridge who was just about to mail in my property taxes, I just ripped up my contribution to the Cambridge Scholarship Fund [which by far helps non-white kids go to college]. Instead I'll donate my money to "white" victims of the bombs. Well played!

from the self-post dept.

More than 24 hours ago I tried to transfer bitcoins from my coinbase wallet to another. The transaction is still pending when it should have taken no more than 60 min.This seems to be a known issue that is being worked on [https://twitter.com/coinbase/status/314167537501868032, https://twitter.com/coinbase/status/314173853028986881,...
