Very insightful. Thanks.

The idea that lies and misinformation can spread quickly and widely on the internet is proven almost daily. If you've ever seen a onion or any other satirical website post a story and then get shared liked, commented on, restated and then its like wait did none of you 60-70 ppl realize the article was fake?

Looks beautiful, but been burned too many times by Kickstarter, seems like a great concept but I will only believe it when it hits the market.

I love that at the bottom of the article is a nice big advertisement.

Agreed, that's the type of information I was hoping this would provide.

I'm really curious why this article has been submitted so many times.

I wonder if they have any special considerations for non profit companies

Just seeing this. I haven't heard of this so I will gladly check it out.

Sometimes I don't even feel the need to read the articles because the comments are so good. Good stuff guys.

I was a happily paying customer for the original nitrous service and even convinced several coworkers to pay for the service. It was great to have a cloud to play with, with a great web IDE. Then they changed all the pricing 19 a month is stuff for a toy. It was great at 7.99 for 1 space to play with.

Diversity is a touchy subject. As a black engineer myself I've worked at three companies where I've been the only black technical worker and it's hard some times. I've gone to conferences where I've been maybe 1 of 5 or 6 engineers out of hundreds. i don't do any hiring but I often wonder if there is a lack of qualified black male or female engineers or what but sometimes I do feel isolated.

the personality of a buzzfeed article crossed with trump rhetoric.

I wouldn't consider that so much strong arming but someone trying to retain a customer using either uninformed or false information.

I echo these sentiments. Wish I had heard of it sooner.

Although your take away may have been that everyone should enable it in production. I think every developer should use common sense and practical knowledge when implementing a feature in their application. If you want to use it you should know that having this available for all users is not a great idea, and use it accordingly.

As a developer myself recently diagnosed with diabetes, this too really hits home. Thanks.

hilarious. I'd hire you.

This looks like I very cool project, thank you for all the work you put in on it, I've definitely run into some of the problems you're trying to solve, and have come up with various custom-hacked solutions to make it work. I can't wait to try this out on a project.

While there are some insights to gain I think it is most telling that most companies are Series A are hit and miss.

> Paraphrase: Some of the ideas are thought of as crazy, most are in established/competitive markets.

This propels the Valley idea of disruptors? Right, pretty common ideology that you should want to disrupt an industry.

As someone else mentioned this tells me about some approx. 25 companies that are now valued at approx. $1B. What about companies that went bust, what about companies valued at $500M, I'd want to invest in those as well.

I agree, seems like this is a very early splash page to gauge interest in the business, which is a little misleading and makes me think them untrustworthy as they do not have their legal basics setup yet.
