In years past, the best-and-brightest all came to NYC to work in law, fashion, or finance. The talent's still coming, but those industries have all shrunk. The big beneficiary is the start-up scene.

New York City finally has its own accelerator. Here's how it's doing. New York City's brand new startup accelerator, SeedStart, just graduated its first class of companies. New York's lack of its own answer to Y-Combinator -- the ultra-successful accelerator program in Silicon Valley -- has been a common knock against the local tech scene.

Most of the discussion revolved around creating “incubators” where startups can begin their life and grow until
The deeper I go into my startup, the more I realize how important it is to make lifestyle choices that are in line with what my start-up needs from me. I have outlined three ways I make or try to make my lifestyle choices so as to live a better start-up life:
As with many other industries, the days since the 2008 crash have been “dog days” for the venture capital industry. Racked by a dearth of attractive exit opportunities, venture capital returns over a ten year time horizon have fallen to sub-par levels and the venture capital industry has begun to shrink as a result. ..
The environment that nutures creative programmers kills management and marketing types - and vice versa. Programming is the Great Game. It consumes you, body and soul. When you're caught up in it, nothing else matters. When you emerge into daylight, you might well discover that you're a hundred pounds overweight, your underwear is older than the average first grader, and judging from the numbe
