I was not agreeing with your comment that I was policing you. As for my personal beliefs, like everything in life, it's a balance. Do I want society telling me I can't smoke weed, no. In fact, I don't really want society telling me what to

While I don't agree with you, I admit my comment was not productive. I guess I was just unprepared for the backlash. I thought my Interpol suggestion was pretty neutral. I've been writing software for law enforcement for about 7ish years no

They do not always have large budgets. But for those agencies that do, why can't they invest in projects such as this? I'm still trying to figure out why people are against practical applications of this project. It's datamining illegal onl

Why would they not be interested? I happen to interact with them from time to time. Now, I can't say for sure, but I would imagine this is something they would certainly be interested in.

Wow, this is pretty interesting. Perhaps you should approach Interpol and see if they would be interested in funding further development? http://www.interpol.int/en

Is it the best place? I question that. Post this same message at a group of researchers, elementary school teachers, chefs, women, kids. I'd be curious how they would answer this question. There is just so much out there by hackers, for hac

Hey there! So I took it for a spin. I entered "bike brakes" since you use this as an example in your "About" page, but nothing came up within a 50 mile radius. Maybe because I'm in Toronto? But if that's the case, perhaps you should have a

I should also point out that there is this on going debate about whether it is better to learn Ruby before diving into Rails, or just learn them at the same time. Personally I tackled them both, since I could plug what I was learning into a

I'm male. My field is Forensic Science. It consists of about 80% women. Doesn't matter which lab I go to, or which forensic education program I visit, the percentage stays the same. Why? On a daily basis I'm dealing with very violent crime

I'm a Forensic Biologist, working mostly on DNA evidence. This article does not surprise me in the least. The National Academy of Science is also not surprised. They issued a report about a year ago examining the forensic sciences in the US

Sorry, I`m not PG, but I couldn`t help but comment. I hope you don`t mind. From everything I`ve seen about YC and PG, they seem to value the co-founder much more than the idea. So the second attempt may work, where the previous attempt fail

My first thought was 25%. Four options, only one is right. Then I saw that 25% appears twice, which reduces the available answers to three. But I have to randomly pick an answer, so there is a 50% chance I will pick 25%, a 25% chance I will

You seem like a smart kid. I would stick to what you're doing. Seek out other geeks and program with them. Contact companies that interest you and offer your services for free. Show them what you've already done. Keep working on your proj

Forgive my ignorance, but is there an IT community in Belarus? IMHO, I would go for the Computer Science degree. I didn't, and as a result had to really work to get a foundation in CS theory. I'm still working. Good luck to you. At least y
