The question is how many armed men with guns will it take. Armed men with guns are not an infinite supply, and during a massive unrest, presumably in high demand. Why make it easy?

People often get this backwards. Emotions are the lines and reason is the colour. It's very had to colour outside the lines. Most of the time the picture of our lives is drawn by our emotions.

You don't need to cite the paper. You only need to cite your sources if you are publishing further academic literature. The whole point of publishing literature is to enable other people to actually use the findings in practical life. If it

I don't think it is appropriate at all to change the title or imply meaning on the original article. Further, assume stupidity not malice.

One thing I often see neglected from requirements is the need to generate invoices for every payment especially if you are selling to other businesses. They will need records for tax purposes particularly if your customers need to itemize s

I don't think that is the correct interpretation. It's not that it's through paper that it's "Little Bobby Tables". Little Bobby Tables is an injection through someone's name. In this case, the reference is because it's through the voter re

I think it is a great exercise to reimagine your favorite websites. Build junk. Because it is fun. Because it teaches you. Because no one expects it to be awesome so you can be free to play. You have to sharpen the saw somehow and by takin

I voted "divulge information in a redacted form (for instance, percentages rather than absolutes)". Being public about your success matters to customers. Business numbers are social proof as well as demonstrating you are reliable because yo

Here's a rule you have to get used to: There is never just one of a thing on the Internet. There are twelve. Clones are par for the course. Once in a while the clones win, but not very often. They definitely keep you on your toes. Plus you

The post-investment salary rule is something a lot of people trip over, but it's important. The rule is simple: Pay yourself enough that you're not thinking about taking a part-time job to support yourself (and your family). You should be a

There often can be advantages with client-side Javascript templates when building gadgets, such as those in OpenSocial containers. Not sure I value this templating system over others yet.

It's very unlikely you'll get through 10 startups without having to spend your own money since a three time loser is not going to get investment very easily. Your average net income over the period of time it takes you to get a $5M exit wil

If one in ten Internet startups were acquired by Google, I'd short Google's stock. The likelihood of being acquired is closer to one in one thousand.

Yes, thanks for the feedback. As with all things, good names are in short supply. I've learnt that it's a very common thing for grad students to build citation management software, and I fell into that trap as well.

I thought that most of the time since users are typing one character at a time that would be efficient. Even pasting at the end of the string is easy to manage as it might only be O(q) where q is the length of the query string (depending on

Perhaps a dumb question, but has anyone considered using a trie to manage search query auto-suggest, such as Google AutoSuggest? It seems like it could be more efficient as you could send to the browser the node ID of the current buffer and

I started MeatballWiki ( http://meatballwiki.org ) just over 10 years ago to wax poetically about wiki culture, codify it, and try to reproduce it in other environments since I thought it was superior. However, Wiki cultures have been diffi
