   Can't you use RoR with a different storage backend like MongoDB ? It's hard to say without additional precisions on the algorithms and persistent datastructures.

   I'm afraid your situation reflects quite well the reality. I'm working from France with a Canadian to create a Canadian startup. My co-funder is clearly bright and talented, but he could not really find an experienced and motivated develope

    I love PostgreSQL. I'm using it now on a startup project to seamlessly store and use graphs with 1M+ nodes and 25M+ links. The lack of pain surprises me.

    What matters is using a technology stack you really master, a stack you know the many trade-offs. That really depends on your experience.

    Yep, it's stange to see someone seeking a technical co-founder and trying to impose a framework. Let the future CTO do its job, grant him confidence!

    For niche markets, I recommend reading "Start Small Stay Small" by Rob Walling. You'll have to keep a critical eye while reading, but it will give you a basic canvas to iterate on.

    Then launch NOW and iterate, iterate, iterate fast. You think that you can't match them ? And that there can't be competition ? Competition is good, it will keep you focused.

    There's been a similar discution on /r/startups few hours ago, with the big million dollars question : where to find good marketers co-founders for developers that have a prototype? I tried founder2be, but it seems inadequate (lots of idea

    Launch first, then use their launch as free publicity : on each news on their launch, comment : "hoo nice, but that's just like Xxx" (well, add more value, do not spam heartlessly)

    This will never happen, but... 1. Rewrite all the laws in Prolog/a dedicated expert system. The interesting part is defining all the input variables, hence creating a new way of "legal structuring" data that would be reused in nearly all so

    OVH.com, the biggest european hosting provider : Xeon i7 W3520, 24Go RAM, 2x120Go SSD (Intel SSD 320) in soft RAID-1, 130 €/m. PostgreSQL is really happy on this hardware :) And online.net for HA.

    What you search, I believe, is called "semantic clustering" : grouping textual content with related concepts. You may be interested in the algorithms used in Apache Mahout ( https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/MAHOUT/Algorithm...

    When I was a student, I programmed KBlade, a KDE 1.x (C++/Qt) frontend to the MP3 encoder Bladeenc. I discovered later by pure luck that the software was distributed in Suse Linux. I was proud :)
