I like Tornado, too, but here are a couple problems: - Hard to test, at least relative to Django. There's no built-in support, and being async makes it a little complicated. I have it working now, but it took some bashing and plenty of the

The idea is that you might want to copy/paste or otherwise review your chat log.

All the big feedback from my prior submission[1] has been implemented. I'm trying to make sure the site is good enough before making the first big marketing push, because chat obviously has the chicken-and-egg problem in a big way. Right no

Note that you start with "you're doing it wrong" and end with "I personally would much rather". :) You also switch from arguing against type checks overall (could be Haskell) to arguing against Java. I'd say that strong compiler checks beco

It originated as a reply. Someone would make a long post, and whatever dork would reply "too long; didn't read". It became a trend, got shortened, and then people started putting the summary in the OP as pre-emptive defense (and because it'

The negation of "you can do a startup from anywhere" is not "you can only do a startup in Silicon Valley".

a) Says more about your personality than the typical "objectives", but says less about your experience than the typical "experience". I don't care how many hours you've spent "working profesionally" (using MS Word?), I care what you've made

Server-side data loss always sucks, but this would be much harder to recover from with a non-distributed VCS. Another win for the D.

It doesn't do that on mine. :| What OS + version of Chrome are you using? What happens if you resize the browser window? Thanks for taking the time to get a screenshot, I appreciate that.

Submitter here. Thanks for checking out my site. I'm looking for feedback on all levels: the UI and implementation, the product idea, and the market. Particular questions: do you "know what to do" when you get to the site? Is it ugly? What
