The boomers have also presided over a period of unparalleled monetary inflation. They chose not to take hard decisions. Being an xer, I can totally relate to the concept of being trapped. The boomers are sitting on gazzilions of dollars of

Being through a similar situation. My advice would be shut shop, suck up the losses and start fresh. At the end, whatever you and learned in this process is the most valuable thing with you, and so it is with your co-founder. If you have IP

While no doubt it must be no mean task to document fast moving technology (I have just seen the toc), but many of these concepts/libraries are still evolving. Maybe a good record to check back in a few years, what worked, what didnt.

If you are planning to have a lot of functionality, i.e. routings, you need some way to modularise. Bottle does seem to have a more pythonic way. Flask creates new concepts that seem counter intuitive to me at the first look.

I also like the way bottle handles static files and apps compared to flask. I lost flask when it went into blueprints. Bottle seems more intuitive, though there is not much difference.

Totally agree. It seems like a media driven phenomenon. Incompetence is a bigger problem than corruption in India. The systemic problems that face the society need ambition, will and technology. This solution is too simplistic for me to be

Code becomes unmaintable when it is not object oriented, ESP for front end applications. Nothing to do with using slick looking syntax, IMHO

After studying backbone and other such Javascript MVC frameworks, I realized that they are not necessary. JS has a wonderful MVC architecture built-in. all JS objects are models by defaults, all views (HTML elements) are models too, and JQu

This is really nice. The code of the demo app reads quite well - not only is it small its quite readable... I was thinking of using backbone for my next rewrite. Will have a serious look at this.

Great job - I didn't like the ajax spinner in the central overlay - a facebook like ajax indicator on the element that was clicked would be cool.

I think the problem is also with the lack of US style Universities. Most of the good quality successes from the US come from Stanford, Harvard and the likes. It is this entrepreneurial and enlightened culture that YC taps into to get qualit

With 100 million users, that makes it $90 per user. That looks a big number, but consider the cost of recruitment of a single position and look at the value of a validated network of 100 million professionals. I am sure each position filled

What I meant was that the trend would be more towards minimalism and simple metaphors rather than 3D realism. I don't say that highly visual interfaces don't have their place. I would say the difference is like the difference between a the

I believe the future user interfaces are going to be minimalistic and non-patronizing (like Hacker News). The interface shown in this article (and similar) have a very high learning curve and are counter productive (generally).
