I think if anyone is willing to work with no income for options, it's OK to call them founders. Anyone pre-VC is basically a founder anyway. There will never be any doubt about who the 'real' founder is. In the end, it's more important for

I know startups (and the myth about startups) are all about "we'll kill ourselves to crank out the alpha in three months then we'll go live with the beta two months later, because if we don't, our competition will eat us for lunch!" The rea

That's it, in a nutshell. The macro facility is what differentiates Lisp from other dynamic languages that have, seemingly, all of the same attributes--dynamic/lexical scope, closures, etc. They allow you to write a true DSL. Paul Graham pr

If you're a Perl programmer, there is HTML::Mason. It's what Schachter used for del.icio.us, IFAIK. I've been using it for some time. It has it's pros and cons. It's a little off the beaten path (as is Perl these days). None of the cool kid
