"Yes, I'd planned on having a comparable list of awards, "the reddit awards, according to robots." Adjust for traffic? Sure, if we wanted to bow to the robots." - Alexis Ohanian

"This business plan isn't much different from my career development plan: success takes years. And when I say years, I really mean it! Not as some cliched regurgitation of "work smarter, not harder." I'm talking actual calendar years. You know, of the 12 months, 365 days variety. You will literally have to spend multiple years of your life grinding away at this stuff, waking up every day and doing it over and over, practicing and gathering feedback each day to continually get better. It might be unpleasant at times and even downright un-fun occasionally, but it's necessary." - Paul Buchheit via Bookmarklet

"Money by itself doesn’t motivate high performance. Money by itself can only motivate the quest for more money. A raise is only a raise for thirty days; after that, it’s just your salary. / We are motivated to perform when our work expresses who we are, when the business’ goals are intrinsically meaningful to us, and we feel that we are valued as people, not simply as economic agents." - Nivi

Woah, that is huge! - Shevonne

It was blocking West Evelyn on my way to work. There were about ten of them rolling around along the railroad tracks. - Paul Buchheit

I didn't know these things still grew out here in the Bay Area. I used to see them all the time in Tracy, before it became a bedroom community. - Brian Chang

"All good predictions but safe money on Kermit coming through." - Daniel Ha

"So the kind of people you find in Cambridge are the kind of people who want to live where the smartest people are, even if that means living in an expensive, grubby place with bad weather." - Neha Narula via Bookmarklet

"But where's Death Magnetic???" - Alexis Ohanian

This "dumb comments" issue is interesting. We currently highlight comments from your friends with a light-blue bubble, but I've wondering if we should do something more dramatic to separate the "comments from friends" vs "comments from random people". I have not yet thought of a nice, simple ui for that though. - Paul Buchheit via Bookmarklet

I'm in favor of comment voting. It gives another way to filter. I'm not so sure about threaded comments. I think that a new "thread" is better. - Meryn Stol

"It's things like this that make me working on reddit such a pleasure. It feels criminal to call this 'work.' On second thought maybe it's all the Aeron chairs I keep stealing that make me feel criminal..." - Alexis Ohanian

"Thanks Matt, it is poorly phrased. I will change it." - Nivi
