How do you like it better than Django? I've been wanting to try it out for some time now but haven't found the time. Sometimes I think the included apps in Django too heavyweight. I get a lot of "just because it's included doesn't mean

Self-hosted, custom app built with Django. The admin interface was provided by Django, I just had to make the front-end. I ended up going the custom route because I really wanted to just hack on my own website.

You can bundle a production server using CherryPy's server: http://www.eflorenzano.com/blog/post/hosting-django-site-pur... Then your users can proxy requests from a certain port to CherryPy. The guys from silver stripe bundled their djan

Ask YC: do google gears and other offline libraries matter?

Yes, sort of. I've been using Gears for a side project of mine (Django on the server side) and it's been pretty fun. You'll have to decide whether to do modal or modeless syncing and modeless takes a lot more time to implement. It's proba

It's generally really hard to throw away stuff, even if it's bad. Users get used to things in the UI even if it's bad.

I'm a recent CS grad from UCSD. In our new CS building, there's a sign that pretty much brightened my day the first time I saw it. Thanks to this guy for putting getting the CS department to put it up: http://michael-mccracken.net/wp/2007

In terms of development, maybe it's not better than what you have on the desktop. If you're really productive in your environment (terminal + vim OR IDE), then it definitely doesn't make sense to develop on their JS editor. But in terms of

Large space with several co-workers. That's ideal for me. If I'm ever 'in the zone', I just put on headphones even if music isn't playing.

I actually grew up in silicon valley. I'm not really great at making contacts either. For some companies (especially startups) you might be able to make a call and stop by their offices, or have lunch with some of the people who work ther

Looks like some features include being able to byte-compile for closed source distribution and easy packaging (.app, .exe, or .py). That's pretty interesting for people who want to make and distribute python web apps.

I'm fine using a 12" Powerbook, but they don't make that anymore. My next laptop will probably be a 13" Macbook. When it's hooked up to a 20" screen, I've got plenty of space. When I'm just using my laptop alone, I just use a multiple d

"If I could do it all over again, I would spend less time in the library and more time at parties" Man, same regret here.

Rock solid. I've always had access to my svn repository and it's always speedy using it. I've been using them for about 8 months now. For svnrepository, the control panel doesn't look that great, though =/. But you really won't use it th

The guy behind svnrepository.com is also behind railsplayground.com. The $5/mo plan at railsplayground gives you a web host AND a free svnrepository account (1GB storage, unlimited repositories, unlimited trac instances, https access, use

The web language/framework I would like to use (Python/Django) doesn't have any sort of source code protection for it. There's no compiled byte code or source code encoder product. But if it's an advantage to release the source code, that

Thanks SwellJoe, I guess it doesn't sense that other people would steal my code and release their own product based on it.

I'm on the fence for software as a service. It might make sense for small/large businesses, but the software I'd like to make is consumer level software. It's mostly for web hobbyists.
