The difference is, other hosts will crash under load and you'll lose all your requests. Mosso is like a train and other hosts are motorcycles. It's slower but can haul way more tonnage.

I think this is a great idea. Startups need a place to talk. But I question, is this really a startup? By that I mean, is this a potential business that will employ people or is it more of an online forum where people can talk about start

Right on! The question of the brain is a matter of resolution. It's precisely because we don't have enough volunteers like you that we don't understand the brain better. The computer /is/ like the brain because the brain /is/ a computer.

I know, was kind of funny that you used that to make the point. I understand it. It's usually true. The paradigm shift is one where development is moving away from desktop based environments like Eclipse and Visual Studio to web based devel

Not true. We have /one/ interstate system. We have /one/ electric grid. We have /one/ internet. Most people have one water/sewer system. These things have worked fine for many years. Just extrapolate the situation from what it is to wher

You're right, I apologize. It wasn't written by him. It's called "Value Investing Made Easy" and is /about/ him, but not written by him. can't see when it was written. I checked it out from the library years ago and it was totally worn out
