> It will save you work in the long run That's the biggest lie of them all. And maintenance? No one does that, they do re-writes. How many hours have I wasted on this joke of not using tables?

What would be great for kartik's app is a live "push" style feed of all the new content on hacker news (possibly including votes too). This way, the load on the site would be minimal. This would also let a lot of other people scratch their

On to this topic: Am I the only one who thinks that this field still seems so incredibly privative? Online recommendation systems particularly... they suck! But more importantly, even if someone developed a "perfect" recommendation system,

A very useful idea. Many databases can be such a pain to find, I'm sure most people don't know they exist. Plus, I've got a ton of python for doing complex manipulations of sql data and schemas and scraping the web that I've been meaning to

"engineer, works 9-5, and has a wife." Wow, you're setting your goals real high, eh? Is it the wife or the job that you're having trouble getting?

Honestly, he doesn't sound like he'd be the best for a startup. Not the best for an OSS project (which are always done on your own time) either. Certainly not going to make any breakthroughs in mathematics. He's going to live a wonderfully

Actually, it's "only" a little over $100k from 4 years of school. The problem is that it's become a b*tch to get loans under 10% without a co-signer. I couldn't...
