That was the critical mistake. Always own all of your IP. If you sub out anything you need it in a contract. When he agreed to jointly own IP with fusion garage he essentially lost control. It looks like the Crunchpad just runs fusiongarage

I can say my build times went down considerably. However I moved to a completely new machine. I didn't plan on writing an article so I don't have any official bench marks. I'm guessing they dropped from over a minute and a half for a full r

Posting a question on Hacker News about how to meet Hackers is a good start. If you are not in SC, which you are most likely not, you might post where you are. I'm always trying to meet more hackers in my area which is Denver.

If you can't code very well or are an mba with an idea, then it may make sense to offshore. It may be cheaper to send the code offshore than to send it across town. But it might not be too. You have to add in the cost of communication as we

Some of the more interesting bugs are the ones not in your code. I decided to list the ones outside my code that I've found in the last year or so. These are windows / .net bugs. 1. When you add a program to run at startup to the registry a

Sorry to hear about the majority which all got a no. Keep your chins up and your hopes alive. I would not worry about it. It might be time for a reality check though. Step back and take a look at your idea. Does it have legs. Is it somethin

That is a very cool idea. Unfortunately I can't apply. I thought about another idea that would work for me though and might be fun and helpful for you. I think you guys should also have a virtual guest hacker stay at the house. Setup some s
