   Thanks 280 North for open sourcing this app - has been a tremendous Objective-J learning resource.

   It's pretty neat. The inbox picture isn't the easiest to pick out that it's an indbox - make it look like the normal window view of mail with the split views for easier recognition. Besides that, the top menu animation is a bit distracting

   I wonder how the Googlers handle this @work. Obviously, in overall, they are a productive bunch, but it makes me wonder upon your comment if the dog friendly groups get as much distracted or not.

   That just tells me that you've missed my point about missing Loopt's early days on the list. If you've been an active member of the HN community (judging by how long you've been on HN - probably a throwaway account for downvoting?) or know

   Google's python class actually would be right for you. You can go as slow or as fast you'd like. http://code.google.com/edu/languages/google-python-class/

   "It's not .NET" is the problem with this site - these guys don't seem to understand that they are not the intended audience for Rails nor do they seem to know when to pick the right tool for the right job. Also, have you heard of JRuby?

    Well, this is kind of insulting to YC and it's longest running posterchild, Loopt - http://www.loopt.com/ Can't believe no one here mentioned it.

    But Scott Fitzgerald called this out in Gatsby eons ago: "So we beat on, boats against the current, borne back ceaselessly into the past."

    Man, it seems as if the only thing missing is a data bank where you can drop off your hard drive and the bank will store it for you and even lend out free space to others at an interest. Yay virtual currency.

    All you need is this: http://railstutorial.org/book Hartl is a good writer and he covers the whole web stack. Besides, the book is great for all levels. Yes, I felt the same way as you did about python, but there is nothing wrong with the

    I think the mac success story could be very well be attributed to students and Starbucks. Students because of the back to school deals that got better with each iteration of a better intel chip and that was a comfortable bet for parents eno

    If possible, look into meetups. They are awesome sources of real time surveying :-) If you are doing enterprise software or even small business, getting a letter of intent to purchase can help you raise money as well, if you need to.
