I thought the exact same thing. Long division is about the only thing I CAN do though. Haha.

Actually - more information here: http://blog.facebook.com/blog.php?post=2223862130 From the blog post: "Almost all our servers are running open-source software. Our Web servers use Linux and Apache and PHP. Our database servers run MySQL

http://www.facebook.com/jobs.php Looking at this you can see MySQL and PHP so I'm guessing at the highest level, a LAMP architecture. Don't know how they go about web farming, scaling though.

I'm brand new to Python/Django so I suspect it will be a great way to get an overview that I might not be able to piece together so quickly otherwise.

Don't know if it's been posted here before but I thought I would share it seeing as there's been a lot of Django/RoR comparison these days.

I put together a service that takes a URL and spits back the dominant hexadecimal values used. It doesn't work on all pages, but give it a try to see what I mean. I've found it to be useful for when I see a site that has a color palette I l

I thought about asking too, but there were 420+ applications for this round and it might be not enough of a tradeoff to provide that feedback. Other than the obvious problem of people using that information to try and "game" the application

A family friend has been working on some project designing medical systems for future manned space missions, specifically to Mars. I think it's funded by NASA but not sure. I wish I had his brains! I wonder if YC has gotten any space based

From the blog post: Seven years later, we're now clearly in the throes of another dot-com bubble. You might argue that the new bubble has been in effect since mid-2006, but the signs are absolutely unmistakable now. The job market for soft

Thanks for the feedback. I think I'm still going to go with the memorial approach. Technically, this will be a cinch. The hard part is going to be getting the idea out there once I build it!

by jkush 20y ago
You're not raining on my parade juwo. I asked for feedback and got it. I can see why you might think having an online memorial would cheapen the memory. If you look at the memorial sites out there, they do cheapen it because they don't do a

What I love most about the competitors I've found on Google, is that they are all just so very, very bad.

Heh. Good link. I am not married to this idea but for whatever reason, I seem to come back to something along this vein. I'm not sure if the timing is right yet, but someday it will be. Thanks for the link and the "good luck". Same to you.

hmmm - still no sign of a feature to allow collaboration between people who knew them.
472.
by jkush 20y ago
No sure why that was downvoted. I was sincere. I think it's a very nice angle on my original idea.

by jkush 20y ago
Yes. All good points. Thanks guys - this feedback is very helpful.

by jkush 20y ago
I think the reason why they aren't popular is because they suck. The don't let you do the one thing that you'd really want to do when creating a memorial. They don't let you collaborate. If I was creating a memorial for someone I would want

Fantastic idea.

by jkush 20y ago
Judging by the lack of comments, does this idea fall in the realm of mediocrity?

by jkush 20y ago
Ok. Here's a list of features my startup would provide. It would make it easy for you to: -- Create an online memorial -- Make it public; for the world to see -- Make it private; just for friends and family -- Collaborate with friends and

Doesn't pg have some sort of bayesian filter he can apply in that event? :)

by jkush 20y ago
I trust most people here (usernames I am familiar with anyway) but I'd rather not post my idea for everyone in the world to see. If you're interested in giving me your gut reaction to an idea I have, please send an email to john at todotoh
