Building an entire new set of factories in a mountain region where there are, generally speaking, fewer residents to staff your factory is a pretty expensive decision.

That's not a solution, you still need to get the downloads to a local system to use them for that vast majority of media.

The problem with this is generally speaking, if you take possession of a file, either locally, or on a remote filesystem. You are likely to use it, and also likely to use it shortly after taking possession. Be it Music, Photos, Documents, o

The interface looks real nice, I may give it a try, we've been looking for an issue tracker. Of course to sell the company on it it'd be nice to know if you have any export functionality?

The problem is that spending money also spends time, whereas spending time does not also spend money. Hypothetically, if as a one person startup, spend $1000 on rent and $1000 on food a month, and can expect to work 8 productive hours a day

Even though he's a Google employee, we still don't know that he just knows lua because he plays World of Warcraft, or is otherwise a suitable operating system designer. I figure it's best to just let the project stand on it's own ground.

C development in this manner isn't a particularly trivial matter. C header compilation and decleration alone complicates this.

Get it out first, if you hit $300K, put Python next on the list, but don't delay release until it's in there. It's just good sense to get something out sooner regardless if you have the finances to support more.

I think the idea is great, and there is probably a way to make it work. I also just think that it'll end up being more complicated then we imagine in order to build it in a stable manner.

It's much simpler than that, it's called a conservative collector, It looks at every bit of data, at just pretends it is a pointer, if anything points to a valid allocated address, that address is retained. Otherwise, just like every collec

Even if a system is C you can say it is making assumptions. The point is to make as few as practical. I think they are trying to learn from Erlang, not replicate it completely. The key point is that the missing feature can be pretty trivial
