This could only last so long. Eventually, you would realize you become smarter and have much more knowledge as you age. Also, other things will eventually kick in. So now is probab…

I guess I found my solution by searching HN. I thought we don't have search anymore since searchyc closed down....and didn't come to HN much in a while. Anywho....looks like it's a…

Wondering what do you guys use for hosting PHP web apps? Scalability is the main concern here. I am guessing everyone just start with shared hosting services, and switches to VPS a…

Wow that's some story... It is so awesome to know that you (one of us) actualy made his dream come true in such a short period of time... I am sure we all get to hear "do the logic…

Well said. I also think if you REALLY want it, you can make it work. It will probably be way harder. I am someone who is on the same boat, working full time on a completely separat…

From the article "For example, those with a childhood IQ of less than 75 ("very dull") go to bed around 23:41 on weeknights in early adulthood, whereas those with a childhood IQ of…

But if I up vote, that doesn't let the person know I up voted it. Aren't we supposed to let people know that I care? I am not sure anonymous up voting helps so much. It only says y…

Why the down vote? I don't understand. I just liked that quote.

Right on point. Yesterday, we went to Romano's Macaroni Grill. My dinner was delayed by an hour, and the manager apologized. And I was not angry. I understood. I got it. How tough …

Really? From what I know about Carlin, he was onto comedy for at least >3 years before he started getting some attention. Before that it was just a job that barely kept his expense…

And very similar to high school/ college (undergrads?). I wonder if that's the reason charismatic founders end up succeeding.....Jobs, Zuck.....come to mind.

Wow, Google is giving away their OS for free, and Motorola is locking it up. It's not even theirs to lock up. We PAID for it....do they not get the concept of money or what?

So, I kinda got a little too excited when I heard a new desktop. But then, I have already seen all these concepts pretty much, haven't I? From what I got form the article, it seems…

I sense from this comment that you are trying to do what a lot of my Indian friends seem to do. They try to weigh work vs. benefits scenario. That's not the right way to live life.…

I don't think that starting late would have been your issue. Most people tend to avoid risks, and like to live easier life any given day. I am 26, and I asked my friends to join my…

I am more interested in Web related stuff. Have been for a year now. But my full time job is in Java. And it is not web related, although we make the UI using GWT. Interesting comp…

Score 1, Still feel like I am close to failing. I hope I was in CA, but then again, my problem was so peculiar, and so tough ( NP-Complete), it will probably take more time to buil…

Interesting. I would like to know more about your accomplishments. I am pretty sure others here would agree. It's not every day that we find successful examples,and the general con…

I had the EXACT same experience. Same situation, same results. Although I never called my credit card company to do a charge back. In fact, right until this moment, I did not even …

Hi, I guess simply put, does anyone know if Google lets us make add-ins for Google spreadsheets yet? Just curious.

I know I am going to get down voted probably here. But seriously, if you are starting out, Java might be a very good thing to start with too. As a language, it's very mature. The d…
