My advice is if your question is 'should I pass on xx cofounder?' the question is yes. You need to be SURE with any cofounder. If it is somebody you have worked with and know well, it may not matter if they are in a different time zone, bu

Using jQuery, you could get each option from the Select, and make it a div/span (or more commonly, a UL for drop downs) for this example include jquery and superfish libraries //Insert a new node under select id $("#SelectId").after("<u

Mosso is easy to manage. Sure. check out http://status.mosso.com to see their downtime track record. It's bad. I'm currently leaving mosso for EC2. IMO, you may be better off in the long run to figure it out on EC2 (possibly with righ

Ok, I was in your situation a month ago, and dove in. EC2 is great. It's easy to setup. I suggest starting with ubuntu, as there is a plethora of resources for it if you are new to system administration (start with this AMI http://develo

Quick question on the legality of this: Say you hold a contest (cash or prize). Who owns the entries that are used? Who owns the entries that aren't used? Can you stipulate that you will only take entries under certain licensing? (CC or

Thanks for the clarification. Not that I think it could be done in a few days, but I still see it as reactionary to developments in other technologies.

This is completely contradictory to your original argument. Your original argument was 'if you can do "better" and you're not-> you are guilty of having immoral values' Completely neglecting the subjectivity of morality, this statement

'are smart enough to do better' puts subjective definitions on both 'smart' and 'better'. It's also to say that your definition of better is right. I'm certainly not one that prefering football or even pokemon is any kind of a poor choice.

No. That would have confused the hell out of me. I mostly learn from computer books the first time, the reading isn't for puzzles, it's for reading and learning. Giving bad information isn't fun, or a learning style.
