I have the opposite reaction: I think we're at moderately high p(doom) largely because of that inability to differentiate good/bad decisions paired with relentless persistence. With enough treading across a minefield, you are bound to hit a mine.

Both enterprise AND consumer-focused? You've got to pick a lane.

There's really nothing we can do about prion diseases, can we? What does the FDA (or any other regulatory or research institution) even have in the way of prion detection?

That seems like a much more diplomatic (and work-appropriate) way of framing it rather than just saying "hey, if I don't hear from you by x date i'm gonna do something"

I absolutely love and appreciate folks that push tech boundaries in gaming, but I absolutely agree - let's not lose sight of the reason why we make and play games!

Hey Sean - applied for the product role and am based in LA. Let's chat.

I do feel a little bit sad that Saab's Gripen wasn't chosen - it seems to do well in adverse conflict conditions (takeoff/landing from public roads, etc.). The adoption of the F-35 instead of the Gripen also shifts their military doctrine a bit.

Never thought I'd see my boy Dunkey on HN, but here we are

I didn't know that was possible! Is there a guide available to locate/browse the messages?

Thanks for this! I suddenly have a ton of free time, and I think I'll dive into this.

On top of that - avgeeks will buy up ANYTHING plane related, so there's an easy market to serve there

Would be hilarious to see Surface RT natively boot on an M1 system

In a different context, “I’m not in a position to remedy your ignorance” would be a wonderful insult

You're kidding? That's such poor product support.

I have a whole army of Google Homes, and not one has bricked or had any problems. However, at their price point (bought the Home for $100, Home Minis were mostly free or $20) I wouldn't mind shelling out for a replacement. Considering the starting price of the HomePod, it's nuts that Apple would charge that much to fix (for something that was their issue no less).

How do you define competency? Games sold, aggregate review score, or some other arbitrary metric that you're using to gatekeep on game quality?

That's perfectly fine if you don't care about it, but there are plenty of us that do.

Is it common to throw the egg in at the end? I was always taught to fry and scramble the egg in the oil first.

The progress is made in convenience, the regression is made in security.

+1 - if the SDR role is demotivating, it just might not be the right fit for you, or the product isn't compelling

To better refine the answer - why do you want to join an early-stage startup?

It is disappointing, isn't it? That such a cool term has been co-opted to mean "forwarding some stuff to another person."

Do you happen to have the source? I always thought that the destination of the commodities stayed constant, and that it was the burden of the final buyer/commodity holder to organize shipping logistics once it arrived at port.

This unfortunately happens a lot in Asia - not sure what the best solution would be.

The one in downtown proper, or the one at The Row? As someone mentioned in another comment, Spaces picks property that doesn't command a price premium vs. WeWork where it's always a prime location.

The hubris of this is wild - a payroll system that is compliant in every US state and accounts for the many, many nuances of the US financial system is no small project.

Completely unrelated, but I find myself reading your post about Argentinian steaks at least once a year. It's perfect. https://idlewords.com/2006/04/argentina_on_two_steaks_a_day....

It's weird seeing the go-to downtime tracker go down. I'm so wired to check Twitter that I kept refreshing for a good 10 seconds.

Yeah this is the wrong take, buddy.

This is infinitely worse than a challenge coin.

There are a lot of exciting YC companies this batch, but wouldn't a product like Omni be better positioned for tackling a slightly longer-term scooter rental?
