The most amazing thing about this for me was that YouTube reports that there were only 152 views when I watched it, and zero comments. And the link has 7 points on HN, Yet this lin…

OK, so once you have launched a company, and survived past those scary first couple years, you no longer qualify? I ask because I founded a startup in '96, and we still try to "thi…

I signed up for facebook, friended no one that didn't friend me and that I didn't know personally, told no one about my account, and have a folder of facebook spam in my email box …

It seems to me that there could be a version of Python that is solely optimized for speed, and allows full compilation. I haven't given this a great deal of thought, but I bet that…

I was a regular contributor to Techcrunch comments (and not a troll), but I haven't commented once since they moved to Facebook comments. And I won't. This Techcrunch article is th…

Gimp Screen capture and print.

Pretty cool! Not to be pedantic (I hate that word), but in the spirit of improvement, you may want to spell check your popups. (example: " Text that is seperated from directional f…

I agree (except for the part where you wanted to down-vote me). I wasn't trying to say it was their fault. It was more a comment about other comments, not about the django guys. I …

On the contrary, sometimes "out of the box" thinking by a non-expert is exactly the lightning bolt from out of nowhere that can cause a breakthrough.

You can submit stories with a new account. Press submit at the top. You can also link to your site in the comments (although it better be relevant to the discussion, or you'll prob…

@CaptainObvio.us: There's always room for another great site about ideas, but check out halfbakery.com. You might get some ideas from their site. It's good, not great, but has an a…

I can't believe it... not one comment telling the django guys to quit celebrating and get back to work on a version that supports Python 3? :-) Seriously, Adrian, Jacob, and the dj…

You may want to take a look at Pinax to get a HUGE head start on a django-based web app. ( http://pinaxproject.com ) And since installing Pinax auto-installs django 1.2 (currently)…

I'm glad TC moved away from Discus and moved to the facebook commenting system. I won't ever comment there again. I was wasting far too much time on TC comments.

I think there's a Biblical parable that probably fits here - the one with the "talents". I just believe that those who are blessed in life shouldn't flush it down the toilet. A mil…

what tool(s) did you use to create that video? I love it! very impressive!

Anybody losing $1M PER WEEK makes you question how the fool and his money got together in the first place. Good to see at least a little justice in this world. I wouldn't wish bad …

I really like Felix's Corollary and the Millionaire's Estimation! http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rule_of_72#Felix.27s_Corollary_...

"Any traditional OOP programmer might tell you that essential elements of OOP are encapsulation and message passing. The Python equivalents are namespaces and methods. Python doesn…

"We're the AngelList for Developers" Ok, so now, instead of trying to figure out what one company does, I have to figure out what two companies do!

I'm using FF on Win. I think you need to key in a search term at the top, and press enter, to see what others are seeing.

Even better Python variation: Prints 1 to 1000 and quits: from __future__ import print_function z="0123456789" map(print,map(lambda x: int("".join(x))+1,zip(sorted(z*100), sorted(z…

How about this Python solution: z="0123456789" print map(lambda x:int("".join(x))+1,zip(sorted(zip(*z)[0]*100), sorted(zip(*z)[0]*10)*10, zip(*z)[0]*100)) Only downside is that it …

Here's a solution in Python, using pretty much the same logic as the top vote-getter on Stack Overflow: def f(a): print a print a+1 {999: int}.get(a,f)(a+2) f(1) Note, I had to cou…
