My gmail's not working right. -- Hahahaha. I hear this all the time.

Actually, I want to amend that a little bit. Rocket city, spaceport, JPL, etc., I feel space travel is on the same precipice that tcp/ip and compuserve were in the 80's. The next 2…

There must not be much going on in the world right now. So many headlines have similar grandiose statements recently. The valley is not dead. There are future disruptive companies …

I grew up in Cape Canaveral and this was awesome to me! We have to work on the naming though. Star Wars deserves some love!

How much time do you have? I see a lot on tumblr just for convenience. It's just super simple and that's really all you need.

What's even worse is that he could have _at least_ faked it with a quick google search. Shows absolutely no effort on his behalf.

Primer. A garage startup accidentally invents time travel. That's pretty inspirational to me ;)

I have been around the block using these! Springpad, remember the milk, wunderlust, evernote, onenote, outlook tasks, I could go on and on. i. I carry around a real notepad for qui…

There are other email clients? LOL. (I use the web interface through chrome on ios and osx)

I don't know a single Cs Graduate at my state school with those kind of credentials. My questions is who _wouldn't_ hire him, lol.

I'm working on #5 as well. Including videos and tools. People simply don't know enough about this. But others are right, it's being done on blogs a lot - the catch is doing it with…

Wow, two hackers in one thread looking for a business guy? I have 40+ business ideas - some well fleshed out and others just a couple lines from a notebook - but I have no one to e…

At this point I'm convinced that it's going to require new regulations to make this happen. The information is not required to be kept open and available on a large scale. There ar…

I've been wanting to shoot a film about this for some time.

hacker news has had several discussions stating 'if you can fizzbuzz you can get an entry level coding job' so I thought it would be useful. I have a couple semesters of programmin…

I have a skills section where, for example, I would put: Proficient in Dreamweaver, Expressions web, Wordpress, HTML, & CSS. Working Knowledge of jQuery, AJAX, MAMP, & DRUPAL. (Tha…

I'd venture a guess that the solar energy provided wouldn't even cover a quarter of the energy cost required to cool a data center. I'd go on to say that the energy coefficient bet…

I've had two types of free prime memberships for two years now and I buy tiny things like a $1.55 audio cable or a $1.99 grill lighter every week (sometimes every day.) Ups actuall…

No I agree. Came from c++ that I haven't done in 4 years and I'm blowing through this. Definitely need something more comprehensive.

Second this :)

I have the opposite problem. I'm an entrepreneur first, and a developer fifth ;) But getting dev's to see their own potential as a partner is like pulling teeth.

Thanks for the advice, I've several small projects I think I could start out with. Django definitely looks like a good next step. Looking at the resources available I wonder, shoul…

A good resource might be the the wakemate blog or contacting on of their employees. I think they went from prototype to design with a similar product to the fitbit. They wrote abou…

I started on 'learn python the hard way' and I'm blowing through 5-10 lessons a day. What's next step that will really teach me to build a web app? Before I switched majors to digi…

I was under the impression that all the hackers lived in Palo Alto / Mountain View.
