Once you build something as important as Netscape Navigator and cash out for a good chunk of money, I think it's ok to do whatever you want. Building something for the future doesn't have to be a lifelong thing.

When I read the essay I wasn't offended about Paul's thoughts on Arrington, I simply thought they were wrong. There's a difference between being offended by something and thinking something is incorrect. I think the main focus of the disc

Not quite. The bicycle shed is a far stronger example than Arrington. Indeed, the pointlessness of trying to persuade someone about the proper color for a bicycle shed is a long accepted fact in the open source community at large. http:/

You don't have to make money from what you say to be a hypocrite. Why? I'm criticizing him because he's a public figure and his words affect the daily lives and well-being of many people. My arguments in my original comment do not apply

Sure it does, if you've read his articles. Obviously most of the people who complain about him in comment threads have not met him in person. The reason they dislike him is that he uses the same un-ingratiating style in his articles. I do

Well, if you're going to be a badass journalist, you have to do it all the time. Arrigton just does it when it serves his purpose and that's why he lacks journalistic integrity. Case in point: you were told you were being mean because you

I've never met Arrington, so whether he's nice or not doesn't really apply to me. I also don't own a startup, so there's no conflict there. My personal beef is that TechCrunch is a 'serious journalistic entity' when they get documents lea

Heroku is pretty kickass for deploying Rails (or any Rack framework) on. Couldn't ask for anything simpler. Integrates right into your Git workflow.

Results 1 – 10 of about 8,620,000 for java is dead. Dead indeed. Results 1 - 10 of about 22,200,000 for obama is a muslim. Muslim indeed. On a more serious note, the JVM is a platform that enterprise has a lot of experience deploying and

Did you even read my comment? I specifically addressed this when I said: " Will microlending alone solve the problem? No. ". I simply argue that microlending is one tool out of many that we should use. Indeed, you seem to agree with me: "

Well, last time I checked microlending had a repayment rate over 90%, so it certainly must have some impact. If it wasn't effective in fighting poverty, I doubt you'd see such a high repayment rate. Will microlending alone solve the probl

3K a month is going is chew through seed funding pretty quick. If most of that isn't student debt, you need to figure out a way to lower that number. If it is, you should probably get a job first so you can payoff a good chunk of your deb

Nothing is stopping you from using Python 2.x. Writing a new version of a language is never intended to be backwards compatible. Indeed, breaking backwards compatibility is essentially a perquisite because a new version is the opportunit

I've never seen someone answer a question well while calling the asker a "fucking idiot". Something to keep in mind if you want to answer more questions.

If you keep getting shafted by cheap programming "talent" and keep looking for more, you might just be a fucking idiot. Swearing and making poor extrapolations off of a simple query doesn't make you cool. It actually makes you look like

He looked at a Lamson release several versions out of date and several of his points are incorrect. So not only did he not take the time to check the newest version, he didn't take the time to properly analyze the version he did check. Cho
