I think its more of a change in the thought process. A lot of times identifying the problem you are trying to solve (lets say u did start thinking of that as an idea) - provides you the solutions for the market, positioning, pricing and mor

The title itself is a ton of advice. So simple and so profound. I think 'start with a problem' - creates a clear definition of success (solve the problem), demands focus and makes everything so simple to figure out.

There is no mention of security in the PR article. Wondering how easy or difficult it would be for someone to hack into my local opera web server? Possibly the answer is as much as they can hack into your normal web server. I would guess a

The most disturbing part is the number of 'Stay safe Ehsan' messages in the comments. Scary! Stay safe Ehsan.

Think of it as any of the basic DB gui tool + visualization features: plots/graphs. You can create tables, import data from excel/csv, modify, view, visualize. The one visualization feature I like is the intensity map - it plots it by geogr

Slightly off-topic. An alternate idea for tailrecursion.com: how about creating a service which would provide 'unlimited' tail keywords. - the 'unlimited' part is just for the pitch to go with recursion. This is of great interest/need to m

The best thing I liked about PageSpeed as against YSlow is that it provides very specific action items. Very novice website owners can also follow the instructions. A good addition would be the Printable Version of the report the way YSlow

Right I understood your point and could be very valid. But for 90% owning, I have my doubts. Anyway what I felt was later when his dad would have seen his son's business blooming he should have done something about it. Asked him to buy back

You are right. But it was his dad advising him. If he saw that his kid's business is growing big - he would have advised him to buy back shares much earlier and probably give him a personal debt to buy back shares. Why should an accountant

by jyothi 17y ago
If it was so why did your dad even make you sign a paper which said his company owns 90% of all your hard work, intelligence, creativity and luck for a meagre $20000. If this is really true and he truly loved his son, he wouldn't have advis

It is indeed light on read. But I do find their HR negotiations way too smart, may be it sounds funny on paper but ask a Trilogian who took that offer I bet he was under a total charm when he said yes. And not many repent that anyway.

by jyothi 17y ago
Trilogy isn't an insurance subsidiary, but yes they did work with a lot of F500 companies in the finance and auto industry saving them millions. As a company it might not have succeeded big way (they are a services company - they won't be s

Very interesting research. A very explicit & clear observation: Playing Dumb charades: enact movie names or phrases. I find myself far more creative by the end of game. Out of the box thinking comes so naturally post that.

I don't know any to precisely point to. But one area where commandline usability is of key interest is in mobile phone services operating on USSD. I used to consult for a startup in India where number of users on USSD outnumber WAP. We used

I concur with plinkplonk. Spending $1000 a month I would say would be more or less a plush life even in Bangalore. Unless you eat out at places where the bill comes to $20 a person. Additionally you also need to factor out that you would be

For a rural setting or tier-2 city in India I wouldn't be surprised - ppl get paid less than that. Even in an urban setting it is definitely feasible to lead a respectable life - no need to beg/ borrow. $2 a day or $60 a month for a working
