    Most angel investors and VCs will also insist that your company be a Delaware C-Corporation for legal reasons
I keep hearing this, but what are these reasons?

  There are always exceptions, even more, there are cases when accepting a counter-offer is a right decision
The author admits as much and is not actually giving out blanket advice.

Hmm...what was different this time?

Performance would probably not suffer at all...

EDIT: But if you really want to make this a useful lib, bake in a way to disable the `armor` for debugging/development.

Definitely not $2B "Profit" since they would have to subtract all other overhead costs like salaries etc.

I think the article mentions that actual profit might be negative.

React Nexus basically recursively traverses the react component tree and calls getNexusBindings on each component (recreating what react does natively with its lifecycle methods).

However, this incurs the cost of instantiating each component in the tree twice. Once for traversing asynchronously for data, again for React.renderToString or React.render

This would cause slower initial page loads for SPAs. Otherwise, very cool implementation.

So you only used this title to piggy-back off the announcement of the actual Amazon Echo?

And you don't even mention it in the blog post. Nice.

Edit: It appears the title has been changed. Sorry for the asshole tone above, but I don't like clickbait.

You mean doesn't track views but only tracks clicks/conversions?

The only problem I would see with that is that if a user already converted by clicking the ad, he would continue to see the same ad when he is on your site again. You're no longer able to extract more $ from that user.

Umm they forced me(as in I wasn't able to use youtube otherwise) to connect my Google account to my Youtube so...that is pretty much combining the accounts in my book.

I think, they just needed that to collect my aggregate search+video watching behavior for ad targeting, which they got.

I'm relatively new to HN. It's disappointing but I kind of just accepted the Microsoft hate, as a given(like nick cage on reddit).

Also recently I started to see posts from older HN members who don't like what the community is turning into.
