Well, most Indian programmers know Ankit Fadia is a joke, and I understand collective fun we had - but at the end of day, this news is not hackernews worthy.

While I agree that bit of Dave's article is about trying harder to appeal to underdogs. Is YC investing in companies abroad then? I am not talking about companies started abroad but essentially cater to US and/or global audience(I know you

Have you tried: "To fix this, I removed all the remembered locations and then in Configure Network Prefrences -> TCP/IP changed Configure IPV6 to Link-local only." EDIT: It did seem to make things better for me, where after waking up fr

Good points over all. If you don't want to disable transaction fixtures for certain specs and still want to use after_commit, I have this little patch - https://gist.github.com/3205621 which works flawlessly. And I liked author's solution

It is not about climate or heat. More : http://blogs.wsj.com/india-chief-mentor/2010/02/16/indian-en... I believe deep down Indians being bad in athletics is similar to being a entrepreneur is hard in India. The reason is - individual fre

Sure. Look at my other comment below. We are def. proud of democracy, freedom of speech and lot of small things we take for granted and none can deny self confidence in young educated Indian. But we are not China.

You have setup a straw man here, I hope you realize that. I have never been to China but I will accept that living conditions there - are better than India. However, we _are_ somewhat proud of our democracy (even though we hate it most of t

May be you have met wrong sort of Indians (nationalistic) ? I along with nearly everyone I know - understands that India is far behind China. We truly suck as society. Rate badly on corruption, infrastructure, women, minority rights. There

In India - it is just not possible to make a living out of athletics. It is largely true and partly just a perception problem. The only sport where you can make a comfortable living is basically Cricket and thats about it. I know few of my

I play Dota2 and has never bought or traded any item. Agreed Dota2 will be free to play, but compared to TF2 - it brings another aspect which is professional game play and ability to watch it within Dota client. I am not sure, how much mone

It is one thing porting Steam to Linux and quite another making actual games available on Linux. Take OSX for example,a platform where Steam has been available for awhile now. and yet around half of most played titles on Steam are not avail

If I am reading the story correctly it was. "And Mr. Elliott assured Ms. Baker that investors were worried about the market in general, rather than L.& H. in particular"

This is of course offtopic but I meet lot of people who think Chef/Puppet are not written in Ruby. There is something in wanting to talk about a tool without actually using it.

One of the things that makes jsfiddle somewhat more useful is ability to play with Canvas and SVG from browser. Is it just me or when you make an interpreter run in the browser without any visual elements the whole thing appears a bit meh.

This one is different from the vulnerability reported in that thread though.

Last I checked your builds didn't had `ns-toggle-fullscreen`. Is that still the case? EDIT: Looks like emacsforosx does not compile Emacs with support for above command. Will you consider it? I totally understand distributing plain vanilla

Sure LoL is dominant game in North America and even EU and most importantly while LoL numbers can be tracked while original DOTA numbers aren't trackable. But if what I hear is true, then DOTA is huge in China and that player base is more l

There are few concerns about how ability to customize a hero can affect fantasy aspect of the game. It will be weird if a hero called Anti-Mage suddenly walks around with cowboy hat. There is also a concern of heros suddenly not being recog

Rather old article and mostly true, except : "We’re in a booming economy now. This is an employee’s market." I believe this is true almost always for people who are good at what they do.

My point was the cases that drag for years generally has two sides, but what if the case had only one side? Copyright Labs wanted certain sites banned and obviously Vimeo, Pastebin etc have zero ground presence in India so there wasn't real

Exactly. Drumming this news as somehow - Executive arm of our constitution took power in its hands and decided to block websites unilaterally is false. I still lament the lack of knowledge judiciary has, when it comes to passing judgement o

Well, I tend to take a pragmatic approach about this. The question is, how much you want to deviate from convention of underlying framework when developing? 90% of Web applications out there, can reliably stick to rails conventions and they

Honest Question - How do you guys use these cheat sheets? Take large print outs and keep on desk? Just keep the electronic copy somewhere easily accessible? Printout and hang it on the wall?
