Neat app idea, however two nitpicks: 1.) Screenshots? This one seems obvious. 2.) Patent Pending? Seriously? The developer certainly is not the first to come up with this idea. The idea that this "technology" needs to be licensed from th

A true entrepreneur has to predict the future. I think this is a horrible misconception. If you want to build the next billion dollar company, perhaps. But if your satisfied with building a multi million dollar company, all you need to

So send every subscriber a free Kindle. (Seriously... or at least a Kindle like device that hooks into NYTimes content. It's a business move that News organizations should have made a long time ago.)

A far more relevant Linux security flaw about how easy it is to set up a malicious mirror: http://www.cs.arizona.edu/people/justin/packagemanagersecuri... The "virus" in this article is a bit trivial, as other users have pointed out.

Let's be clear: Anyone who has a domain name like weblogs.com to sell, even with zero content, is going to make quite a bit of money. They are scarce commodities, and that has nothing to do with blogging. I hardly see how it's fair to inc

If you program in a bottom up fashion, you can test your code seamlessly while you write it. In Lisp for example, you simply check that the function you just wrote returns what you expect. If not, you fix it right then and there. While I

Actual hackers (usually) make things that require minimal maintenance. The idea that code needs to be "maintained" (it's not like it degrades over time) is actually silly once you think about it. Maintenance is just a way of covering up f

The blog focus is unfortunate. There's only a small subset of bloggers who make any kind of money to speak of, and then there is an even smaller set who will be regular customers. I notice that they have a Drupal plugin, Twitter functional

Yeah I have news for the author. State schools don't have money and private schools do. If you/your family don't actually have enough money to pay for your college education, you'll get financial aid from the private school but you'll ha

While intellectually I'm interested in the results of this poll, I agree with what was said above. It's simply better not to get into this type of stuff as ultimately it will detract from the value of this site. As such, I've flagged this a
