IANAL, but I would think that if downtime that is not covered by an SLA occurs (and you can prove monetary loss because of it) you should be able to sue. Maybe a lawyer can pitch in...

To all the people wondering: "why is this better than Flask" or "why should I pay XXXXX$ for something I can get for free". The huge difference is the fact that by purchasing this you have a right to ask for support and if it doesn't work o

There is no special syntax for partial application because in Haskell partial application is always possible. You can call the function foo :: a -> b -> c like this bar = foo a or like this: bar = foo a b. In

What kind of startups are you looking for? My father runs Tyro Payments ( http://tyro.com ) and I could try to get in touch with Mike Cannon-Brookes (Atlassian), although I don't know if he would be willing. Are those startups too old/big?

I think one of the problems may be that people dealing with AppStore or Android Market customers are not realizing that they are dealing with a different kind of user group. One cannot compare the feedback that HN users (developers/advanced

I think you are very right about the customer support thing. That is the one reason why I spend hundreds of dollars a year at Amazon. From the customer perspective (the only I have) you feel like a god. They nailed that one on the head. Exa

If he is not very technical you could just block the top XXX porn sites using his hosts file. For that to work he obviously shouldn't be able to change the hosts file (or know about it). He also shouldn't know that you could just as simply

I was going to try it, but, honest feedback, the fact that I have to login before even giving it a go is a real no-go. Why don't you let me try before signing in?

Please elaborate... I don't understand the criticism. I find the question quite interesting. What is ambiguous about it?

There seems to be a pretty simple solution to these problems: diversification. Like most things in life, putting all your eggs in one basket it not the right choice. The people who use only AWS or only RackSpace or only 1&1 are equally

I don't understand your argument. If customers are "where the money comes from", then 1/5 of the subscribers are customers. People who don't pay are not customers, they are part of the let's call it the "marketing audience".

Not that that is a place where idiots are likely to venture, but I remember this "captcha" for the Arch Linux forums: What is the output of "date -u +%W$(uname)|sha256sum|sed 's/\W//g'"? ( https://bbs.archlinux.org/register.php )

He can't, so he is just making an assumption (whether from experience or not, who knows). But I would be interested in some information about the HN codebase... Is it shorter? Less error-prone? Simpler?

I was in the same situation as you. I had been using mac and then bought a desktop PC and ran Linux. I tried awesome, xmonad, gnome, kde, etc but none of them were to my liking. So now I run Windows 7, which is more option-full than you mig
