I am using that to mean the various order rules for capping trading losses/gains...I know the finance jargon meaning is slightly different.

Actually limit orders are a perfect way for HF Traders to fleece regular investors...for instance if you set a stop loss at a certain level and a HFT causes the price of a stock to drop precipitously, you'll end up selling likely at a

Well said. In fact I would add that, what's needed are more focused frameworks,tools,products instead of tools that try to be all things to all people. We are building a web app platform for the jvm called HiveMind (crudzilla.com) and

Not sure about the overall proposal but static code analysis and code completion as a service is something I have been wishing for. But that is only for a selfish reason, it would save me from having to do the work for my own IDE HiveMind (

download hivemind (crudzilla.com), I swear if you follow the 5 step setup on the homepage, you can have a working web app in less than five minutes :) I am serious, lowering the bar for web development is something we are really trying hard

Hmmm...this may just be my favorite post on HN in a while... I have been working on a UI builder tool and have to some extent built the kind of functionality in this editor. It looks, at least from first impression that you guys have done a

It could just be the particular writer's style, I doubt it is meant to misrepresent the facts, since there's no need to do so in this case, the facts by themselves are damning enough. 7%, when there should be about 30% means only

Native is faster but I think the browser will eventually catch-up enough that the difference would be negligible. There are also a lot of advantages to having at least web development done in the browser. I am the founder of Crudzilla Softw

There is definitely a case to be made about old stodgy incumbents getting in the way of innovation. But my point isn't really about innovation disrupting the old but rather people throwing out the baby with the bath water when it comes

I agree that experience from doing does trump book knowledge. But it would also be a mistake to discard the basic foundation that book knowledge grants you. Lots of rookie mistakes can be avoided by having some foundational knowledge.

They wouldn't want to use that term, at the risk of making an MBA sound useful :)

I don't know if you are familiar with how car dealerships tend to be distributed but a gallery would not be an adequate replacement. Typically you have numerous dealerships in towns/cities, I suspect you won't have anywhere c

No one's getting mad about profit making, the point being made is that when profit-making is the motive, it is disingenuous to position your argument as being about something else (such as pretending to be advocating for good governmen
