_gbc··on Elon Musk Confronts a Fateful Tweet and an ‘Excruciating’ Year
Saying no to some things would probably help. He is on track to burn out or have a breakdown at the current rate, assuming it hasn't already happened.

Personally, I'd love to see him close or sell every company other than SpaceX and focus all of his efforts there.

_gbc··on Ask PG: Displaying number of comments on HN posts
Thanks wglb and dang. At least now I can stop trying to work out the (non-existent) pattern!
_gbc··on That'll Never Work
Excellent talk and well worth the time to watch. Thanks for making it publicly available.
_gbc··on Books every developer should read
Speaking as a non-developer, here's one which I think every developer and manager should read: Rapid Development by Steve McConnell. I am currently about 3/4 of the way through and it has been excellent so far.
_gbc··on Julian Assange is expected to address the world's media at 11:00pm (AEST)
If Julian Assange is worried about being extradited to the US (which seems to be his main objection to going to Sweden) why is he in the UK in the first place? The UK has an extradition treaty with the US in place and have extradited several people to the US.
_gbc··on The Launch Pad: Inside Y Combinator
Seconded on the Kindle version (preferably one which is formated correctly for a change). I suspect we aren't alone in that preference.

PG, any chance of finding out if there will be a Kindle version?
