Though his point is not lost, the use of "primal" in "it is a shame to give into primal hoarding impulses" isn't fully accurate.

Would not primal hunter gatherers have spent it while they had it - resources being plentiful for those skilled to find and kill? Didn't hoarding only become necessary when humans transitioned to farming?

In fact it _is_ a primal urge to consume what you've earned, spending it on improving yourself/project.

jasonvolpe··on How to become a designer without going to design school
Thanks, Karen. This looks like great guidance. There is certainly no avoiding the "learn to draw" step if one ever expects to generate original material.

jasonvolpe··on Ask HN: Who is hiring? (February 2013)
Chattanooga, TN - Full-Time, Part-Time/Contract, Remote OK - Campus Bellhops

Campus Bellhops is expanding from 8 to 90 schools this year, providing flat-rate moving services for college communities. The service is powered by college students who select work from our job board for part-time income and to start developing a professional track record of success. After testing in small markets last year, we are fully-funded and rebuilding the operations from ground zero. (If you visit our site, you will see the old one.) We are currently housed at the Lamp Post Group (venture incubator) under great mentorship and with a handful of other exciting startups in the beautiful Chattanooga, TN. Chattanooga was the first city in the US to have gigabit Internet.

I am the sole developer on the project, and I am looking for a partner to either serve as a strong generalist or take over front-end, back-end, or mobile. Strong sysadmin skills preferred.

Please contact me at jason@campusbellhops.com if you are interested.
