Another possibly more plausible explanation is that he could support her at the time, and now due to circumstances can't. I applaud his efforts in trying to figure this out, and while it's not ideal, I'd encourage him to not to worry about

I wonder if he might be using a gendered language. Which would explain a high level of xE or even yxE at the end of sentences.

I don't want to discourage you, but I just wanted to make sure I wasn't missing something. I know there are a lot of people smarter than me, and I am no expert here so I thought you might know something I don't.

I guess, isn't it weird that nearly matches the graph for English? If each letter moved to the right 8 places closely matched the expected value of that letter that would suggest that that you would be on to something. Doesn't this point to

Just to clarify RoR is a framework, and PHP is a language. Each language has many frameworks to choose from. You need to learn Ruby before learning Ruby on Rails. Each framework allows for rapid development of websites or web apps, and shou

That sounds like a perfect reason to choose ruby. Your choice of language is almost irrelevant when first starting out as long as you pick something like php, python, or ruby. As the languages get more exotic or lower level they can become

1. Pick a Language 2. Find a beginners guide to said language. 3. Start building stuff. You need to start building stuff. The only time I've ever learned to code was when I was trying to build something. Reading books, taking algorithm clas

You can do Single Premium Life insurance that mitigates all your issues. But I will agree that trusts are worth a look.

The wealthy can avoid estate taxes via Single Premium Life insurance, but this assumes their investments are liquid enough to pull that off. Life insurance of any sort is a great way to avoid liquidating a company and many wealthy folks use

Here are two examples: 1. The business man from the city that buys a small piece of land (40 - 60 acres) and cash rents it out. Now you might say that's greed. He's looking to make more money and is greedy pushing the family farm out and re

The best line is when he says, "features.html should 404." What he says is basically: 1. Develop a niche, and this is probably easier if you target women. 2. Sell an emotional experience, not features. 3. Tell stories because software is bo

Minimally Viable Product. Basically, "What is the least you can do and still create value?" is your MVP. If you can build this you can figure out what value you actually add and how to leverage what you built to add even more value. Most pe

Just start building it. What's your MVP look like? Braintree makes the payments dead simple and for <1k you have someone integrate it all into your application. Don't worry about payments until you have the app built. It sounds like you

Here is what I would do if I were you: 1. Start Freelancing until you can live on free lancing work alone. If you don't have time stop taking classes. 2. Stop taking classes anyway, and start an open source project. You'll be further ahead

Is it a CRUD app? Forget the marketing, etc. Are you only Creating, reading, updating and deleting data? If that's the case pick a language + web framework and go to town nights and weekends.

I'll add to this a bit: I worked for a 400 person company. The business side of things was very transparent. Maybe if there were 20,000 employees that'd make it less so. But at 400 employees, I could listen in my office for conversations th

I think a job is great for learning, if you take an active role. For me, I was working in IT, but I was able to build non-IT systems related marketing, sales, product development, HR, and business. What I would do is listen for someone to s

I will confirm you are being overly stupid here. Your readers are of a certain type. The probably have projects and businesses that align with that type. They want their projects and businesses to have more attention from people like them.

It depends on the person here. 1. Imagine a dude who just wanted to build something cool. Craig Newmark, of Craig's List fame, for example would fall under this category. He's got enough money to retire, yet he still works customer service,

For me the biggest takeaway on this is the fact that putting something out there early and often. Once it is out there the market can judge it for its value that it presents. In the case of fresh desk that appears to be huge. It is amazing

What I would be more interested in is not how much money he made, but what opportunities opened up to him. To me, the goal of putting out good content is leverage it to get awesome job offers, bigger projects, higher paying consulting gigs.

I don't have the logs, so it would be based more on memory than anything else. It'd be less than scientific, and I went into Yahoo Chat rooms 6 months ago to see if they had changed and it is much less fruitful now with the population being

Thanks for making that explicit. My point was that the context (story) she used makes it so we want to believe her. In the same way I could setup a context that makes you want to believe and ignore irregularities. I would expect that the jo
