Re:Show HN: Flowbite – Tailwind CSS Components Library on Friday September 17, 2021 @07:43AM (#28564261)
Got it.

So DaisyUI is more for weekend projects where devs themselves own the design.

Whereas Flowbite is meant more for working with a real designer and easily translate the professional design into tailwind-based code.

Cool. Thanks!

I've been using DaisyUI which seems similar to this.

I'd love to hear people's thoughts on Flowbite vs DaisyUI. Is it worth the switch?

I love these tools but before I invest more of my time leveraging this in my workflow I'd want to know that it'll be around for another few months at least...

Really appreciate your comment! Very helpful.
They are withholding my investment into the company, and my equity. They are also threatening to sue me in the US even though this is a non-US company.

I think they are bluffing, but I just want to double check.

The parent company is based out of HK, but the operating company is based in Philippines.

My co-founder threatened to sue me in the US as I am a US citizen.

Funny enough, if I recall correctly, my home state California has one of the weakest non-compete law.

Ask HN: Could company force departing co-founder to sign non-compete?

Dear HN:I am running into a situation where I am being forced out of the company I co-founded. I have not signed any Non-Compete agreements in the past, and I don't want to sign it as it will severely limit my ability to work in the future.The only piece of legal document we have signed so far is a non-binding MoU that states if I want to claim a director seat, I need to sign a non-compete....

I am glad The Economist did the datab visualization in log scale. Otherwise, US and China would be so dominant rest of the countries would be impossible to see.

Very cool data indeed.

Re:Dell to Sell Itself for $24.4 Billion on Tuesday February 05, 2013 @10:28AM (#5171094)
I can't be more excited by this news. Michael Dell is in a pretty unique position to do something innovative in the PC industry.

Remember when Dell told Steve Jobs that he should close shop? http://news.cnet.com/2100-1001-203937.html

Your turn, Michael.

Let's see if you can turn Dell around like the way Steve Jobs turned Apple around!

I polled my 500Startups network to see which countries they were interested in and had contacts in, then narrowed down the list to a manageable size.

Which cities did you think I missed?

Bowei here. I just want to say major thanks to 500 Startups, StartupWeekend, StartupDigest, Dave McClure and Brad Feld for making this all happen!

Ask HN: What Are Some Locally Copy-able Enterprise Startup Models?

Hello all,I'm working on a project to document the world's startup ecosystems. I want to get the community to help on on something.Here's a list of consumer startup models that I believe can be copied if it the model doesn't exist locally already. I'd love your feedback and what you think are copy-able b2b startup models. Thanks!Transportation - UberEntertainment - YelpRecruiting -...

Wow that's amazing. #1 news on HN already? This is pretty cool.
This sounds to me like a defensive move against the messaging giants of the east (Wechat, Line, Kakao).

Thoughts on this guys?

Re:CardMunch CEO uses Flightfox for 29-Country Startup Trip on Wednesday November 21, 2012 @10:27PM (#4817395)
I think the cheapest was $7,500 for economy, and business class for $16,000.

That is still amazing consider when I book business class flights on my own, it's usually $3-4k per round trip.

Re:CardMunch CEO uses Flightfox for 29-Country Startup Trip on Wednesday November 21, 2012 @06:49PM (#4816917)
From my quick survey, it took them between 20-30 hours of work to build my itineraries for me.

So by a rough estimate, I saved hundreds of hours by running this contest rather than doing everything myself.

Pretty amazing stuff, I think I will make Tim Ferris proud.

Finders fee was $500, but I added a few bonus prizes for fun you can read about it here: http://flightfox.com/contest/36810

Yes, I considered doing a RTW ticket. It was way more expensive ($20k min vs. $7500 cheapest itinerary from the experts). The price differences were astonishing.

Re:CardMunch CEO uses Flightfox for 29-Country Startup Trip on Wednesday November 21, 2012 @06:35PM (#4816873)
Yep that is correct. For simple trips you can just use Kayak, but as soon as you start to deal with multi-hop, points purchase and all sort of crazy tricks, you need a service like FlightFox.
Re:CardMunch CEO uses Flightfox for 29-Country Startup Trip on Wednesday November 21, 2012 @06:25PM (#4816846)
Bowei here.

I just want to give a huge shoutout to FlightFox co-founder Lauren. She's been absolutely amazing to work with.

Early stage startups, please take note. This is how you get loyal first customers. You treat people like VIP and make sure they're taken care of.

Thanks Lauren!

I have a lot of respect for this guy. Just talk to him for a bit and you sorta get this feeling that he'll succeed no matter what he chooses to do in the future. Keep it up buddy!
