What do you mean by public branches? Can you clarify a little bit since we're trying to evaluate Redmine and see if it will work on a fairly large sized team of Rails hackers (15+)

That depends on what you're trying to build. For most startups, getting early users (not a full launch but a limited alpha/beta) is key in developing a good product. Sure, given more time you could just keep perfecting the product to your s

When you absolutely must, ie. something would break horribly if you weren't an incorporated legal entity. Like you have a term sheet from investors, or you want to start charging people. Incorporating early is fairly pointless, especially i

Fascinating. Would be nice if you labeled the three columns, (The first is twitter mentions, the second flickr and the third everything else?) But it looks like a great way of visualizing developing stories, with the downside being that you

Since the he in this case is me, I think it was nice to have the audience challenge me, since I said at the beginning that I was not an expert - I mean, this was barcamp after all :-) My problem with incorporation is not the cash, but the

Sure, tolerance is probably a better word, but think back to when you were starting woobius... weren't you just itching to take that risk no matter what the consequences? I've often wondered if you can acquire this quality that stops people

Ultimately, do what your team is most comfortable with. And how valuable they are to your startup's success. Read the equity equation: http://www.paulgraham.com/equity.html What about a vesting schedule after they get equity? That's a goo

Go to school, and learn a new skill, something that has always fascinated you but that you've never pursued. Meet new people, expand your horizons. Defer your student loans. Also, if you're good at what you do (and it seems like you are) -

Sure, anything that has sensitive information about you needs to treat security as a priority. Most web apps (other than banks and people that store credit card data (not process)) are probably fine. right?

Honestly, this is a classic usability vs security question. All the other suggestions (other than the over the top I'm flipping out because this is so insecure stuff) are ok, except for #5. Are you seriously telling me that there are hacker

I think in their TC video they talked about adding new data sources including your blog, and your facebook feed etc. That is a tough question for every repnet out there though, what about people that don't have a digital footprint. Maybe to

Have you looked at Project Voldemort? http://project-voldemort.com/ Voldemort combines in memory caching with the storage system so that a separete caching tier is not required (instead the storage system itself is just fast.)

Uhh. No. One of my best CS professors used to say: "Competition is for horses" The _right_ way to motivate your hackers is to give them interesting stuff to do so that you can watch as they fall in love with the stuff they're doing and achi

You as a publisher or a consumer don't have to actually DO anything, you give it a chunk of text and it figures out what place you're talking about. (This is awesome.)

Basically, Jobs hates the house because he moved there right before he was kicked out of Apple and stayed there in what is posssibly the "darkest" time of his life (pre-NeXT and Pixar, and Apple part 2) EDIT: I'm not "speculating" -- this i
