What about all your jobs that you only stayed a year or less at on your resume? Has no one questioned that? Do you have any explanation for such apparent job hopping? Not that I blame you...


Well, I have worked on mostly very early stage startups. Very rarely in a big corporation except my last employment. After that I have been working on my own startup.

As you know things change a lot in startups. Statistics show >95% of them fail. Hence the jump. I am not saying I jumped because they fail. But you work in a startup not because you want it to be next run of the mill company. You work in a startup so that it becomes the next Google.

But if my senses say that a company is not going to become next Google, I move on instead of wasting my time and companies time and money. I am not sure whether I answered your question but its more philosophical than anything else.


That looks totally legit. :|


Better late than never?

Maybe you'd still be wheezing from all of the road dust you'd been inhaling in the carriage the entire ride.


According to what I read about our history, the US tried to get rid of tipping early on, in an effort to have a more egalitarian society, but people couldn't stand the idea.

As far as I have ever seen, most people don't mind sorting the trash, the different bins just aren't there.

In places where there is a single recycling can, I can't remember anyone throwing recycling into the trash can, with righteous indignation, muttering about the extra cost to their personal time.


No shit. Is anyone advocating plain rice or plain quinoa or plain anything?


And iirc, they said they'd get night blindness from eating only millet (presumably from its lack of vitamin A?).


I expected far more from the article. It's not like this hasn't been blogged about before.


Yes, but it shouldn't come with a parrot just because he likes parrots.
