The linked blog post (above) is a nice write-up and elaboration from Stuart's Clojure/West talk this year: http://clojurewest.org/sessions#sierra

oDesk rejected two job postings of mine, with no explanation. I double checked their TOS and saw no conflict. Customer service never replied. They won't be getting my business.

Wiktionary has a very inclusive list of definitions. It does include hackathon: http://en.wiktionary.org/wiki/hackathon For such a tool to be most useful, I'd recommend gathering data from several places (such as DuckDuckGo, Wiktionary, W

What about this...? A simple tool might be useful as a first line of defense against silly filings. First, the tool could monitor trademark filings. Second, it could compare against common words, perhaps from a dictionary. Third, it could s

"But most entrepreneurs, seeking validation, ask me whether or not they should pursue their ideas. There is only one way to find out — to go do it." That is hardly a strong argument! I tend to put up the red flag when I hear "there is only

That is your logic? I don't care if this infrastructure could send Obama back in time; it doesn't mean it is right for your needs. Some people glorify "successful" architectures, but it is at least as important (if not more so) to pay atten

Well, it doesn't matter all that much that each of us agrees that building Technology X will help with Big Problem B. Why? 1. It is hard to predict how innovation unfolds, builds on itself, and cross-pollinates. For example, who predicted t

What one considers a "big problem" depends on your values (i.e. where you want society to go and how you want it to get there). From my perspective, many of the "big" problems are just that because they are the result of complex dynamics an

I'm chucking because you just used "simply" and "unpatentability" in the same sentence. Maybe you can argue your point in a probabilistic sense, but I don't see how you can do so based on the underlying principles. Parallel inventions can c
