if it works, it's not bad code
superdex | 7 years ago | on: Ask HN: If you had two months off between jobs what would you be doing?
Riding my bike. A LOT.
superdex | 8 years ago | on: Ask HN: How do I get $2.2M dollars?
You forgot a key variable in your equation: WHEN?
When do you want to retire with this $2.2M? That might guide your investment choices. Sounds like you might want to take some financial/econ classes as well ;P
superdex | 8 years ago | on: Ask HN: Sell my startup for $14M because I can't raise $2M?
If you're not profitable enough to hire without borrowing money, then that's something to really look at. You don't have to hire 15 people. And taking on money is giving away your control; you'll have to bow to the VC's wishes because they bankrolled you. If you can go without, I'd go without and keep on chugging.
And depending on how you're structured now, $14M is a LOT or it's quite a bit and you can take your time looking for the next thing....

commute by bike. 3 hours in the car every day is brutal.
superdex | 12 years ago | on: Why C# is not a good choice for web development?
so you blame a compiled language for your poor dependency management and app architecture? it's not C#'s fault, it's how your app is put together.
And your excuse for not having the app under source control is a cop-out and shameful. Enjoy your scripting languages and short-cuts...

Feedly for me: keyboard navigation very close and display is nice and compact

We do it, but everyone gets the same schema and same app. .net/IIS/sql server and when we update the schema, we apply to all dbs via in-house scripts. It provides security warm fuzzies to our clients that their data is separated from other clients. If you want to try and version the app/schema for different accounts, that’s where your headaches are, regardless of db model
