Thank you all for great comments!
aerialcombat··on Ask HN: What's your favorite way to kill time?

Maybe you should reconsider keeping the team you have.
aerialcombat··on Ask HN: Would you pay $25 a day for dinner, laundry, and cleaning?
Let us take care of dinner on our own, doing laundry isn't that hard. I would pay $50 per cleaning session, twice a month.

aerialcombat··on Announcing Graylog v1.0 GA
I've visited the site and read what I could before, but without knowing what it does, it was pretty cumbersome to read through the entire website to figure out what exactly it does.

I was initially drawn to the fact that it took five and a half years to get to 1.0. God knows how hard it must've been to work on it to perfect it all these years, heck spending five months on an app is tough enough. I would've given up reading about it otherwise if it hadn't been for the five years thing. I just think that, despite all it's capable of, if the descriptions were more in layman's terms it could reach wider audience.

It actually turns out that this is exactly what I was looking for since I'm about to have my app out, and if I hadn't asked the question, I would've just ignored it all together.

While I'm very thankful for the additional explanations, I still think that nice illustration or a simple video of telling how it can solve real world problems will help people understand it better.

Call me stupid, but I've always learned better from examples than descriptions. So it's a log management tool. I can have my app write logs or files into Graylog, then I can handle the logs/files within Graylog much more easily than, say, if I were to write my own code to make some kind of sense with the log data. Am I understanding this correctly?

So I can maybe tell easily where users had problems with my app, or I can even use it as some kind of analytics program for my app?

aerialcombat··on In South Korea, Rivals Samsung and LG Fight Dirty Over Washing Machines
The way I look at Chinese companies are like... Turbo-charged what Korean companies once were. The way Korean education kills creativity in students will hinder Korean companies to innovate as much as they would need to in order to get up to the level of the highest grade companies. I think Chinese companies are easily able to achieve what Korean companies are doing, probably better as time passes. Korean conglomerate are spread out too much horizontally to excel in one specific part anyway. I think it's only a matter of time until Chinese companies take over the role of current Korean companies. It's already showing in mobile phone markets as companies like Xiaomi is taking a huge chuck off of Samsung's. On innovation though, I don't necessarily think Chinese companies are more innovative. But it's not like Korean companies are innovative in any way.
aerialcombat··on Ask HN: How to get rid of speech anxiety?
For me, I had trouble when I thought those on the otherside were there to judge me and my performance as a speaker. But when I realised they are just there to listen and that it's ok if I F up, things got easier. It might help if you start with a smile and look through the eyes of each and every individual and see that they are smiling back at you. And also it's just like speaking in one-on-one situation.
aerialcombat··on Ask HN: How do you advertise your new service/app?
Noted. Thanks, although I can't easily figure out a way to connect a Udemy course to my non-existing service/app. I guess some services will work better than others with this method. However this is something I'd never thought of, and I think it's brilliant in a way.
aerialcombat··on In South Korea, Rivals Samsung and LG Fight Dirty Over Washing Machines
Those two have been fighting forever. It's one way to keep them motivated, however their inherent structure keeps them from innovating further, hence will never be able to amount to the levels of Apple or Google, and they'll soon be surpassed by Chinese companies and will walk the ways of Sony, although they were never as good as Sony was.
aerialcombat··on The Entrepreneur Who Captivated Me
I liked this article a lot. The art of approaching a business opportunity. Jake approached him like he would a potential buyer of his products. Don't force a sale on someone, get them to want your product first and eventually have them begging you for it. Very clever.
