This doesn't look like a CVE based on this. To execute this you'd have to post in the class file, deserialise and then exec. All of this takes explicit additional code. This looks …

I haven't found that. I've moved back about a year ago and found despite being less that syd/canberra it's still pretty solid, even with the financial climate. There's a few startu…

I'm also in Brisbane (moved back from canberra) and it does seem more service orientated, hence consulting/corporate/mining, however it's the same anywhere. Most great jobs aren't …

It's been my experience that once you have dev you don't go back. I was lead engineer for a pretty complex technical product that needed strong technical testing and money wouldn't…

I was the same (although got to see the acquisition from the inside which was pretty interesting), we were in Aus though which meant we had comparatively high degree of independenc…

That sounds great. As a tech founder that's the thing I'm working through. There's a few good sources but very little that says, for tech with std tech structures you probably want…

One thing that would be really good to see come out of this IMHO is a better profile for tech startups in Aus. The more open this can be around tech scene, gotchas and contacts foc…

Good to see the Australian tech sector has some life. The thing I found most interesting was that they bootstrapped off their credit card.

I guess what I was trying to point out is that they're not the crazy greens social enviro anarchist party that you'd tend to think of if you heard of the 'greens' for the first tim…

As someone just getting started with my own small tech company I find this quite alarming. I particularly find the technical cluelessness of senator Conroy the most disturbing thin…

Yep good point RC refused classification is typically anything above R. So for example a porn store owner was just jailed for selling gay porn http://www.abc.net.au/unleashed/stori…

Australia's heading to an election later this year and with the series of missteps by the Rudd/Labor camp (mining tax, education revolution, dodgy insulation implementation) it's l…

Depends on who you expect to consume it I think. If you're going to have enterprisey folks use it then they're most likely going to want SOAP etc, if you expect it to be used in se…

Yep, but this is true for RSS and most news sites generally as well IMHO. You see it, read it and then unless someone reposts it, it's gone forever. I use delicious to tag that I'v…

I would wager it's probably Sydney, but then again I don't think any Australian town is the clear winner. Canberra had a lot of enterprise focussed software startups which didn't g…

Thanks, signed up.

I'd definitely be in.

Brisbane, hi! Recently moved to Brisbane from Canberra and starting knowtu. Looking at ilab and will make it to opencoffee sometime. Are there any good Brisbane entrepreneurship/te…

thanks ;) I would have preferred; stop, collaborate and listen but had a feeling this had been used before.

1) Full time 3 weeks ;), thinking and planning, 3 years 2) No - YC isn't for me. Think bootstrapping is probably the better model, particularly for an Australian based company. 3) …

knowtu - tricky concurrency and indexing problems. Still fun though ;)

I'm a sucker for Irish or Scottish breakfast. Generally I like the black teas which have higher caffeine. Tea to me seems to be less abrasive than the sugary high caffeine drinks b…

The UM change just seemed like revenue raising to me. The whole funding model of universities in aus now means you get funded on the number degrees granted and bums in seats. It se…

I liked it, here I was slurping my Irish breakfast tea and it struck an immediate cord ;) I second the affiliate wisdom. All teas are not created equally, so one of things that is …
