I can see him right now if I use Incognito.... Maybe cdn / caching issues?

Yeah, let's help people track me wherever I go... ;(
Re:Kima15: $150K for 15% in 15 days on Thursday December 05, 2013 @11:33AM (#6855244)
Variability on the initial maturity of the startup, mostly.

Reduction of adverse selection on your side, also.

Based on your historic numbers, would it be a significant cap on your upside?

Love the "fast" approach!

Now, it only it was a convertible note, possibly discounted but a convertible note...

Very interesting, often a source of insights into what's really going on.

Re:Falcon 9 GEO Transfer Mission on Thursday November 28, 2013 @06:35PM (#6817081)
Just love to see things like this. Makes me wonder what it was like to look at those huge rockets for the apollo missions...
Well, it's drawing 200kW form the input, and the other 800kW from harvesting radiowaves and alien probes, I guess.

That could get interesting... Lots of statups are popping up everywhere with DNA related products..
Re:The Mission of Tesla on Wednesday November 20, 2013 @03:22AM (#6766912)
I can't say enough how much I respect Tesla and the integrity they approach their market with. Other automotive companies are miles behind!

It's just lovely
Re:Petition to release the source code to healthcare.gov on Tuesday October 22, 2013 @05:54AM (#6590717)
Is there a way to predict WH.gov success based on the first few days of campaign, like there is for Kickstarter? http://arstechnica.com/business/2013/10/statistical-models-c... If not, it would be interesting...
Re:Tesla's $110,000 Model S is now Norway’s best-selling car on Wednesday October 09, 2013 @03:03AM (#6519799)
I was in Oslo last May, saw my first Tesla Roadster... They tell me it's actually a pretty cheap car - or rather, all other cars are crazy expansive - because of taxes on internal combustion cars...
Re:LeadGeni.us: User acquisition as a service on Friday October 04, 2013 @03:24AM (#6494162)
Have just subscribed to the plan.

Extremely interested in the service, really hope it works. Have no idea how, yet... but decided to jump in.

Well, then again, an enterprise exit might be a lot earlier in the game, and a lot cheaper. Enterpirses can make offers that a startup can't refuse (corleone's way)
Re:Ask HN: How many of you use Windows as primary OS? on Monday September 30, 2013 @06:12PM (#6472730)
OSX here, and Ubuntu at work...
Consumer projects are much harder to really master... only a few relly shine. But boy, when they do, you hear about it!
Re:I have "free electricity" and would like to mine bitcoins. on Monday September 30, 2013 @06:01PM (#6472691)
A fee "anything" makes a lot of things worth your time... Think of recharging Teslas, for example :)
Re:Four rules to make Star Wars great again on Monday September 30, 2013 @05:59PM (#6472681)
This is awesome :)

I like the frontier stuff most of all. Still, I'm not sold on the "old" part. That's only true for the rebels, and anly for episode >4. In the previous one, it should be newer. Obi Wan Kenobi WAS young, in a certain moment in time, you have to admit...

Not at all!
Re:Ask HN: is PHPstorm worth the price, over Aptana? on Monday September 30, 2013 @07:08AM (#6468851)
Yes, barely
Re:Ask HN: is PHPstorm worth the price, over Aptana? on Monday September 30, 2013 @07:08AM (#6468850)
Yes, you cheap!
