I think what you're referring to is the filters. It was a CSS issue and it should be fixed now, but let me know if there are other issues you see.

You should be able to use multiple filters now. I think I originally did that because when testing locally I use a smaller dataset, either way, thanks for pointing that out!

Raganwald,

Have you considered asking yourself this question? You "take the friction out of writing and selling books." You could start with yourself and helping with Diabetes.

You should make a list of companies you are interested in and email them to schedule a visit.

Tell them what you want to accomplish during your visit and make sure to research the company beforehand.

"Protecting" the citizen.

Everything in the post seems positive. Is there anything that is not so great about working at Stripe or could be improved? Alex may be too new to answer but it would be great if other Stripe employees could weigh in.

It's probably some measure of both, but from my experience there are some people you can't afford to give autonomy.

This is the first time I'm wishing for an acquisition to shut a product down.

I can appreciate how much cleaner this is than the AWS calculator, although I agree, it lacks the detail.

Hilarious.

Yes, you're supposed to laugh.

It's read off an array.

I can definitely add a refresh timer or button. The additional photos may be more difficult.

Thanks.

This is great news. Another idea would be to put aside funds for philanthropic startups.

I hope this is a joke.

I just read what I wrote (I must have been inebriated, sorry). Corrected:

What did you do during the time after you left Yahoo and before you started YCombinator?

(I know some of the things that you did included writing essays, working on Hackers and Painters, developing Arc, and delivering talks.)

"Technology is at its best when its invisible."

I think that's an interesting point, especially with Apple since they try to make things magical. Although Apple releases are sometimes disappointing (partly because of all the hype leading up to it), it gives early adopters a chance to get the best stuff.

Building friendships and sharing experiences is a great thing, but can't too much on those things bring down productivity?

It's cool that these types of products are being built though I don't see myself or others carrying around a bag of cellphone "add-ons."

I think this is a great idea. Some things are better suited for or more convenient on a specific device.

I think this is difficult to avoid as more apps authenticate logins though sites such as Google, Twitter, and Facebook.

You could always create a special GMail account that you use to sign up for spam generating offers or deals and use that to authenticate logins you're not sure about.

Something else that stands out to me about this post is the comparison to Mark Zuckerburg's very first press interview.

I wonder how other startup founders have seen change in themselves over time?

I visited quite a few startups this past week. What surprised me were how small in number each one was, and I think that worked to their advantage.

Evernote and Springpad are two options.

I agree it's more important that everyone has an opportunity to do something, whether they want to or not -- and if they want to do it, the more help and encouragement the better.
