So approach entrepreneurship differently. I am aiming to build businesses, sources of revenue and value. You can do like 37signals and provide a service that you can eventually build upon to make a team capable of building a product. Just b

The body-snatchers are coming for us. They will take our places in our daily lives and slowly envelop the entire world. Just one man's opinion though, that's all.

I don't enjoy being a lone gunman. Being able to lean on other peoples' libraries and works on Github is an incredible boon and timesaver. Reinventing everything yourself on F# is scarcely an option, especially if you're seeking a valuable

I was a .NET dev before Python/Django. All of this is accurate, and he's wise for leaving .NET It's just not the environment or kind of people you'd prefer to work with, given better communities and concentrations of driven programmers you

You have personal issues and biases you need to air out somewhere outside of HN. Your rancor is unnecessary.

They froze the account that had all of our money. Our existing savings would've still been in action, allowing us to sue for the insurance which would then allow us to issue refunds. You understanding of the scenario is flawed, and your bia

Where would the money have come from? It was all in Paypal because we used it for equipment purchases as well. That's where the "playing ball with us" part comes in. We could've refunded the money had Paypal unfrozen our account. We couldn'

My eyes crossed a bit at the linked-list thing, but I agree whole-heartedly with the sentiment expressed here. Despite being engineers/programmers, we have the same proclivities for superficiality and marketing as any other field.
