You know, there's probably a whole class of professional athletes that have a hard time supporting themselves. I don't have the numbers, but I'd expect that most minor-league players don't make remarkable salaries, but they continue for a c

This isn't surprising, but it does worry me. After some googling I found an e-mail service called hushmail ( http://www.hush.com/ ) which provides secure e-mail. Apparently it was started by the same guy who designed PGP. So if you want to

I've been using Go and contributing a little to the project. It's a cool language and the guys who review your code (Rob Pike, Russ Cox) really know their shit.

It's an interesting guess but it's not me :) I am concerned with online privacy, but not to the extent as "onetimetoken" (my FB profile is globally viewable). Also my comments are usually short, and I avoid big generalizations. Looking at t

Actually, the authors of couchdb did eventually start a company around it: http://is.gd/aEdvW . I think it's still in stealth mode, though.

That's the very first thing I noticed on the site. A lot of early adopter types will recognize it instantly.

Yeah, they're just selling different levels of access to their data stream. Besides the firehose, they have streams of things like all links and retweets, which require some kind of partnership.

out of curiosity, why is this useful? what kind of functionality do you need in clojure that you can't find in jruby?

I've been using Redis for data storage in a couple facebook apps. It's worked pretty well, and the speed is remarkable.

I don't know why we have to assume men and women should have the same roles at startups. I'm not saying they don't play an equally important role, it's just not the same. It seems that men are more inclined, for whatever reason, to start co

Yeah, the moment I saw "Prauxmote yourself", i closed the window. I don't know if it's supposed to be cute or clever, but it made me feel uneasy.

I don't know if that's a good excuse because most of the competitors are students. But yeah, programming competitions are not a high priority for US universities.

It seems like a business plan competition, except with a very ambiguous payoff and you're pitching to a bunch of random guys. I'm not saying it isn't legit, but I'd think twice before applying to this.

It's probably a good thing for Google that Schmidt doesn't have the final say in these decisions. He seems to have a misguided product sense. There was a Charlie Rose interview where Schmidt he was convinced that Adwords was going to be a f

I wouldn't do it, because living in the bay area, it's not too difficult to find people that have gone through the fundraising process and ask them for advice. That being said there are a lot of desperate people out there that are willing t

I completely agree. Youtube serves so much video, they wouldn't even notice the hosting overhead from a small site like totlol. Plus there are a number of ways to circumvent the TOS. I can think of other big problems with the totlol idea, b

Yeah, I agree it isn't the most elegant way to do it, but the alternative is to keep a copy of go's http package in the gocouch repo, which isn't too elegant either. My guess is that within a couple months Go will have a new http client tha
