coltr··on I am Sam Altman, President of Y Combinator – AMA
Do you personally work 'startup-like' hours everyday, or is it a little more relaxed? 8 hours/day?
coltr··on An Orangutan Learns to Fish
"Forest Person", that's cool. I found it funny that I automatically assumed "Learns to fish" meant our 'advanced' version of fishing, but I guess catching fish and eating it in any way is still fishing.
coltr··on UberMILITARY - Onboarding 50,000 members of the military community to Uber.
Genius PR move.
coltr··on Show HN: Videos for Founders
Thanks! Working on it right now.
coltr··on Show HN: fflip.co – Stumbleupon for videos [flip through YouTube like it's TV]
Thank you, I usually judge a video by it's cover, so I thought it would be cool just to jump in partway and see.
coltr··on Show HN: fflip.co – Stumbleupon for videos [flip through YouTube like it's TV]
Thanks! And that's a great idea
coltr··on Learn iOS development by building apps
Cool. You may have some tough competition with Treehouse.
coltr··on Show HN: My first iOS app – Permeate, the Twitter digest
I like this because of the full screen mode. Makes you pay attention to one tweet at a time.
coltr··on [dead]
I'm a fan of the over-orientation. No need to reach.
coltr··on Help me distribute $100,000 to new entrepreneurs in Africa
Wow this is awesome. Love the charity:water esque updates idea.
coltr··on Show HN: Goliath.cc Launch a clothing brand for $50.
Hey Nick, I'll email you, thanks!
coltr··on Show HN: Goliath.cc Launch a clothing brand for $50.
I started a brand 9 years ago when I was 17. I wasted a ton of money ($18,000) trying to get things right. Luckily all of it wasn't wasted, I did purchase some physical capital that enabled me to pivot into brand management, production, & order fulfillment. I already run this business but am launching a consumer facing version soon to mainstream it. Goliath.cc Thanks for your time
coltr··on Sam Altman for President
Exciting, congrats.
coltr··on America Online to Buy Internet Chat Service for $287 Million (1998)
Wow, I forgot about Tripod. Had a few sites on there.
coltr··on True size of Africa
There's a pretty cool Vidsauce video on this. The most popular version of the map that causes this misperception also causes Greenland to look much, much larger than it really is.
coltr··on Why Andreessen Horowitz Is Investing in Rap Genius
I was indeed wondering about this. And I listen to hip hop.
coltr··on The Day the Internet Didn’t Fight Back
DuckDuckGo did make changes to their page. Their logo had been changed to look like it was being recorded and then linked to thedaywefightback website.
coltr··on Show HN: Fresh baked bread, delivered to your door via SMS
Interesting. Isn't this something a TaskRabbit could do though?
coltr··on Indian School Girl Creates Washing Machine That Runs Without Electricity
Good point.
coltr··on Entrepreneurship is hard but you can’t die
Excellent post. From another point of view: we're all going to die eventually, nothing is scarier than that (excluding torture, but you get the idea). Compared to death, what is there to be afraid of in life?
coltr··on NBD, SoundCloud built a hovercraft during their first internal hack weekend
That would explain how they did it in a weekend :) "Ho-va, Ho-va..."
coltr··on Show HN: Fowndr.com Launched - A community of startup founders
What about Pownce ;)
coltr··on My Paleo Media Diet
I aspire to "be in the moment" as well, but being an INTJ I live in my head almost all of the time.

If Stogdill is spending his time daydreaming or thinking about other things (I do this as well) then ignoring his phone is not helping him live in the present anyways.

coltr··on Why is Twitter Destroying Itself?
This guy just joined Tumblr on Monday? Doesn't this kind of discredit his opinion?
