If this is yours, I'd consider getting it off pdf and into html.
Nope, it's not mine, just thought the work was good. I agree about the html thing.
Nice design though obvious that no one ran it through spell check beforehand. There's also a bit too much personal trashing of other people for it to be considered a real resume.
You also ought to disclose that it's your brother's resume not one you just think "the work was good" on since he specifically mentions you in it. That sort of attitude may work where you're from but isn't acceptable here.
I hear that Yahoo is hiring...
Not sure "what you're quoting" but I wasn't aware we all needed a background story for someone to post something to try to gain exposure.
Your account was created 26 mins ago.
It's quite likely I'm sure this was the most eye catching thing you could find after creating your account and that this isn't someone coming here for personal reasons, much like I did to upvote.
Funny enough, you don't disclose YOUR obvious knowledge/relationship to the poster, thus the hypocrisy I think invalidates the merit of your statements.
No way you googled that fast to know what you know, so this is all rather childish don't you think?
Not that sneaky, and kinda shameful/petty if you ask me.
Anyways, yes, as far as constructive criticism goes, HTML would be a better delivery, and spellchecks are always good. You may consider revising that ONE line a little, but I hardly see it qualifying as trashing. You're letting potential employers know your reasoning for why you'd leave a startup, which is something I think a potential employer would want to know, and opens it up for discussion.

Not entirely sure why my honest criticism is suddenly suspect. I myself have dealt with recommending my siblings without disclosure and got reprimanded pretty severely for it. I don't actually have any relation or knowledge of either the OP or his brother.
As for your accusation actually the only information I found was from looking at his resume. If that makes things suspect so be it. I just know from personal experience that HR people here are far more critical of some of these issues than other locales.
I agree in concept listing the reasons for leaving a startup however any HR person can tell you that it doesn't look good to put any concrete negatives on a resume. Doing so frequently indicates to hiring managers that there will be a likelihood of doing the same thing to them.

I try to keep my personal relationships away from my work relationships, but you're right, he is my brother. I didn't want people's opinion of me (good or bad, hopefully good) to affect their opinion of his work. I thought that was pretty clear in the resume/portfolio though. Sorry if it put you off a bit.
Also, I'm sure the HN community would appreciate it if you left personal quarrels offline.
I wasn't aware there was a personal quarrel here? Again it seems there is an assumption of malice, reading through my comment I can't see anything that would indicate any malice or intent to quarrel at all.
