Thanks for the link to the "Surely You're Joking, Mr. Feynman!" book. I just bought a used copy for $7. I'm running out of good stuff to read, and I love getting good book recommendations from people. Hopefully it'll be a great read.

Regarding your point about using the mouse, I purposely "trained" my right thumb to be efficient at using the trackpad so that I don't have to lift my right hand away from the keyboard. The thumb hurts a bit, but it's worth the effort. Th

Andrew, Thanks for an awesome interview. It's eye-opening to see such an exotic idea becoming a multi-million dollars with the proper execution and with some luck added. Incredible!

e-texteditor is probably the best editor on Windows. I miss it a lot when I switched to using Mac, especially the split-screen feature. Textmate sucks at that, and I have to resort to use Divvy to arrange my file windows. E is totally wel

I peeked the code a bit and you got some good stuff there, like the Model class and the Http class to wrap on top of Prototype Ajax and also support Jsonp. I'm actually building an app that has the contacts feature as well so it's interest

I actually spent last night reading through your book. I've been programming for a while now, but I'm by no means a hardcore programmer (ruby and javascript make me feel too comfortable). But I did pick up a few tricks from you, especiall

Hi wagerlab, If your burn rate is 3.5K/month, with $100K, you can survive for at least 28 months comfortably, give or take. That's 2.5 years of not working for money. If you're already an amazing programmer, go build a product and sell it

This is awesome! Love the idea and the implementation looks really slick too. I had to work on a huge excel file before (like 400,000 rows) and I so wished to have an add-on to run a simple SELECT query. Congrats on the bold move. I am i

Sounds to me that you are interesting in joining the startup more than the large company. What on your mind is that you try to rationalize and compare the stability the large company offering against the possibility of success of the start
