There's also OpenCoffee, but I never manage to trek out there. http://boston.going.com/event-122245;OpenCoffee_Club

I like it a lot. I had to adjust the night setting, since all the way to "Halogen" was making everything look orange. I now have it a few steps up and it looks great. Installed it on my desktop and laptop.

Why has it taken so long for this to come to public attention? I hadn't heard anything about it until about 2 months ago when my friend bought a BPA free Nalgene, and then recently with that CBC documentary Alex3917 posted ( http://news.yco

Ditto. I just finished moving everything off of godaddy recently. Another thing I like about namecheap is that they provide you with nameservers, which was a big plus for me since I didn't want to host my own on the same box I put everythin

From what I could tell in the video, bisphenol a's a petroleum derivative that is used to harden polycarbonates. The other one, pthalates (also a petroleum derivative) is used to soften PVC. So technically, not made out of plastic, but used

I agree. This part wouldn't be vital for a pitch (unless showing the site is a part of it), but for anyone going to the site, it would be. If I can't figure out what the site's about, I'm just going to close the tab. It's like what Gladwell

Yeah definitely not. It's not like the girl's ims from the other end executed on the shell. Seems like it was an easy bug to find and temporarily patch. An official fix will probably come soon.

This is as much for my knowledge as the original poster, but what discount rate would you use? He doesn't exactly have a beta to do Weighted Average Cost of Capital with, or am I totally missing something?

I was an unemployed investment banker. I wore a suit with all my shirt buttons off by one, tie hanging really loose, and a hobo sign (ripped cardboard) around my neck saying, "Jobless - Will work for food."

This is a bit of a specific one, but the array_shift function is really slow on large arrays. The workaround I found is to use array_slice and unset the array index afterward. Overall though, I find out about a lot of cool things just from

The Monk and the Riddle by Randy Komisar I'd say it's a must read for any aspiring entrepreneur. It gives you a lot of perspective and a decent introductory exposure to the process.

that's not ironic. it's just coincidental.

I've always just been a slow eater. In effect, it's the same thing. I feel full "sooner" since the food has time to reach my stomach and most of the time, I don't even finish out the entire meal.

I agree. JavaScript is a pretty crucial step before really tapping into AJAX, particularly if you want to execute scripts you retrieve via AJAX. I'm not sure if any script packages have that. Also, I find it useful to work from scratch, par

www.lounge-radio.com is quite nice. If you turn it down, it's decent sleep music. If you turn it up, it's awesome work music. I've nearly stopped listening to my entire music library, using this instead.

I use SoftLayer as well, and it's fantastic. Prices are very reasonable. Only took 2 hours to set up our first server, like you said, they provide excellent support. Also, unlike certain cloud computing services, there's no ridiculous overa

I would guess that it'd matter if the language poses a problem for when your acquirer tries to integrate you. Of course, this can be greatly outweighed by the value added of your product.

Your comment reminds me of the underpant gnomes from South Park. My co-founder and I are moving forward regardless, since our only real expense is server fees and advertising costs. We've also joined both LinkedIn and Doostang and I've begu

Probably there needs to be another network infrastructure change before the masses adopt large numbers of cores. By that I mean, that current broadband will have to increase again to higher speeds. I mean, it makes sense that your parents c

Agreed, I think we learn more from mistakes than successes. That's why I the Blogger interview in Founders at Work is my favorite. Getting things right could just be getting lucky, but dealing with things when they go wrong takes true skill

I'd put SoftLayer on par with ThePlanet. It was founded by former ThePlanet execs and I've had a great experience with them.

I've been trying to switch to NameCheap, after hearing the GoDaddy horror stories, but GoDaddy's domainbyproxy takes ages to forward me my transfer proposal. :\ Also I happened to register a few domains within the last 60 days so that didn'

You would just have to assess your target audience and decide whether the cost of developing support for OpenID are outweighed by the benefits of allowing a portion of your users the convenience. I see little reason to implement it if your

Probably the easiest would be to use memcache for some of the repeated queries, specifically the items that are relatively static, such as the original post or posted item details. It probably wouldn't help too much on the front page, since

I totally agree. Regex gets easier and easier as you do more. It's just hard to do in the beginning (personally I started with trial and error). But definitely, robust database design is among the hardest things I've had to do. I mean, it's

This isn't a facebook hack at all. It's a Moods application hack. Really, it's the application programmer's fault for not checking if the auth_token received corresponds to the fb_sig_user. James Hong's Pets application used to have the sam
