earle··on Being rich will kill your startup
This has nothing to do with how much money a person has! This is yet another reason why many CEOs fail -- throwing VC's money at areas they shouldnt!

The original point in its entirely is absurd. Most are destined to fail, period. They come in all shapes and sizes, states of wealth, and food allergies.

earle··on Being rich will kill your startup
Honestly, this is completely absurd.

The majority of startups fail, period. If you analyze the people who execute successful startups, the amount of money or wealth they have is a non-negative factor -- in most cases having money helps. This is why people who are super successful with startups have many repeats.

its great you can smash some data into a d3 example and all, but why is this on hacker news?
earle··on Turn.js - The page flip effect for HTML5
Lot of flickering and flashing under Safari
earle··on Earle/django-bootstrap - GitHub
The template tags and filters will certainly solve most use cases, but there are specific reasons why Django implements Forms outside of the template -- there will be significant functionality you cant (and shouldnt) achieve through a template.

This is why the base Form was extended. To each their own.

earle··on My idea to "Kill Hollywood"
This idea clearly presents a lack of understanding of how the film industry actually works, and in turn, is presenting nothing new. Making movies isn't part that needs disruption.

Regardless of what your thoughts are about Hollywood, it's filled with a bunch of very intelligent, and very well connected people, with very deep pockets.

Iterative improvements here and there is not going to cut. Posts like these are obtuse show a general lack of understanding.

RTFM.

earle··on Quick Salary Tip for Software Engineers
I would never recommend this. Never, ever, negotiate salary. Negotiate COMPENSATION.
earle··on How Trello is different
I'm still shocked these companies with online productivity tools dont provide this as a standalone enterprise app -- there's certainly plenty of customers who would pay for an internally hosted version of this that are unable to use a cloud based service.
earle··on Ask HN: What is the coolest thing someone has done with Amazon Mechanical Turk?
The search for Steve Fossett!

earle··on Why do we pay sales commissions?
This is just an absurd argument. You're paying top sales people commissions because thats what top sales people demand! You dont have a choice in this matter if you want real world class sales people -- you'll be giving them more than just commissions!

Additionally, how does this actually actually solve any realtime requirements?

earle··on Show HN: visual search web designers
this isn't visual search, and this doesn't scale very well. you cant even realistically browse the few limited choices you have very effectively.

id take a step back to a whiteboard and focus on usability and the problem you're trying to solve.

agreed, this is silly. a simple half-hitch works better, period.
