There's a lot going on in the space so if I missed an important resource, would be happy to know.

Sure the price is inflated (for someone with the know-how) but for people interested in learning electronics, the all-in-one-delivered-monthly is a great sell until you grow out of it.
Ask HN: Best resources to get started with WebGL for VR?
I've been interested in learning WebGL for some time to leverage for VR applications. Given the specific use case of WebGL for VR, what resources / tutorials would you suggest a beginner start with?
We’re a team of talented engineers helping startups deliver their web, mobile, wearable, virtual reality, and hardware products to market in record time. We’re looking to round out our troupe with a full stack developer who can continue to elevate the quality of our web and mobile products for clients.
The web stack typically consists of Ruby on Rails, postgreSQL, and heroku. For the mobile stack, we use Cordova, Ionic framework (built on angularjs), and a firebase or rails server for the backend depending on the project needs. A deep love for javascript in either stack is a must and you should be comfortable using third party APIs such as stripe, google, twilio, pusher, etc.
Any interest/experience in wearables, virtual reality and hardware/robotics is a plus.

How to Excel at Anything New
I was non-technical at my first startup (domain expert & business/marketing/sales) and after I shut it down, I spent the next 8 months teaching myself how to build software programs, becoming a now tech co-founder.
I then started my second startup (http://notiontheory.com/) by getting $20k pre-sales in 2 weeks to validate my idea before committing to it.
Attempt 2 has been far more successful and we're already beginning hiring in month 5 bootstrapped.
Killing your startup with software development
There are a few exchanges with plans to offer direct exchange from Doge to USD in the coming weeks, which I will also be making a guide for when it's released.
You could alternatively sell your Doge for USD through a service like eBay and add a nice markup for convenience (doge is selling for 2x the value in some bids), although you chance dealing with scammers.
edit* thanks for the props, specifically in comic sans :)
You can bypass having to download the blockchain by using an online wallet instead, which solves that specific pain point but they're less secure than your local storage offline wallet.

You need a minimum of 4 accounts and can expect it to take 4-7 days your first time through. But so worth, to the moon!
It could be something as simple as selecting "Yes" generates an edit var with the associated link. If someone pastes the edit URL into their browser and the edit var = the album id, allow edit. Else force view only.
Edit* This is just an opinion and what logically makes sense to me. Would love to hear what others think.
Awesome job.
Only question is regarding the switch between view-only and collaborative. When I choose to allow friends to contribute to the album, the provided link doesn't change.
I assume you have a view-only link and an edit link that is passed a var to allow people to modify it. How does this work in your application?
