Everyone who sticks with web development long enough outgrows shared hosting, but they are a good cheap option for when you're starting out. The fact that you don't see the same sorts of problems from every other server-side scripting opti

If I could only work with one language, then I'd have to say Forth. While I don't know this one nearly as well as any of the others, this one allows you to work at the assembly instruction level up through the level of abstraction of langu

Consideration 1: How many readers will go away if monetization feature X is added? Consideration 2: How much money will feature X make? Consideration 3: Does feature X fit in well with the rest of the blog?

No established site is going to want to use that for its authentication system. They don't want to make it easy for you to log into sites other than their own.

It's a lot like a protection racket. You need lawyers to help protect you from the laws others lawyers have made. You need lawyers to protect you from your competitors' lawyers. You also need lawyers to protect you from random people who

The difference as I see it is that the important things that appeal to the Slashdot crowd appear there about a day after it shows up on Reddit. On the social aggregators, you get stories a day early, but you have to filter through so much

Sounds like matt's just a bludger wanting free board while going across country. I don't think you'd have to worry too much about safety where it comes to yc news readers. However, I think trying to freeload off them like matt's trying to

Why do that when they've got the time and inclination to educate themselves on what's required to build the site?

You really have about three decent choices here: 1) PHP, 2) Ruby & Rails, 3) Python & Django Of these three, I believe that PHP really is the best choice. While you could learn either of the other two technologies, you can find a

Great idea. What would the site's revenue model be if not taking money from startups to hype their offerings?

Do you think the problem is that LISP has been tied up with academia for too long for the community to be friendly?

Ads are acceptable though it may slow down site growth. If the ads don't get in the way of your users, they won't mind as much. Also, a donation button might be worthwhile as well; but don't expect it to make much money for you. Consider

Mixx is backed by Main-stream media (LA Times invested in it). Not surprisingly, it gets more exposure than other efforts that provided better functionality.

I suggest that you first code for flexibility for at least the first few iterations of your site. Think of it as a fail fast optimization. Because you will be learning a lot and finding better ways to do things, you want to keep it as che

Brooks' Mythical Man Month records that flow charts were somewhat helpful for grouping low-level machine/assembly instructions together into higher level units conceptually. But with the advent of better languages like C, the need for flow

I suggest you run a randomized test using Google keyword ads. Try different names taking you to some page and see which ones get the highest click through. Ian Ayres used this technique to find the title for his last book. Seems like a c

Hardware support is added to Linux sooner than BSD. More pre-compiled binaries are available for Linux. Also, it can be a bit harder to get applications up and running on BSD.

Python is more consistent, and it has a limited set of core concepts the language was built around. Secondly, Python was designed to make it harder for you to write unclear or bad code. While the code is less forgiving of mistakes than PH

It seems that Netflix is trying to offer a prize to stimulate innovation much like the X-Prize worked to raise interest in privately funded rocketry/space launching.

I would suggest that you consider a couple things: 1) How can you break down the work tasks your site/crawler is doing so that it could be divvied out across N processes? In the case of the crawler, how would you handle breaking up your

You might want to look at 'cognitive science' as well because that field tries to explain how humans think and make decisions for use as AI construction models.

Why would you want someone to do this? Wouldn't that simply lead one to remake all the mistakes that have been made in the field?

In addition to this book, you're probably going to want a good book covering the history and development of the field. Keep in mind that AI is a broad field. As such you might find it more helpful to identify which computer intelligence

An interesting statistic here was that only 36 per cent of Italians trust their government. US's Congress currently has approval ratings hovering in the 20's. Do you think that a poll would show that even 30 percent of the US people trust

Programming Collective Intelligence (O'Reilly book) also discusses this along with other AI topics. Everything in the book has fairly straightforward python code demonstrating it as well.

My suggestion for you is that you to set one small task for yourself per day and force yourself to complete it until you feel compelled to work hard at it again. While it may be a real challenge for a time, at least then you will continue
