Anyone heard of a decent performance comparison of Rails/PHP vs ASP.NET? I have a rough idea of difference in speed between languages (Ruby/C#) but as far as frameworks are concerned there is more than raw language power to a framework perf

What do you want to do? Join one of the smaller open source projects, get a mentor and build something amazing! :-) Seriously, I do think that some hands-on useful development is the fastest track to become a master of your domain! :-)

What a shame... It's because of people like him most Web 2.0 companies have shitty names: because all imaginable .com names have been stolen by these scumbags.

"Ever wanted to keep track of all the great restaurants you've been to?" The answer is NO. This is why you dont' have any visitors. Is it so hard to accept that ppl dont' give a rat's a$$ about "blogging" about stuffing themseves with food?

How about this: - You ask a visitor: "what is your name" - He says "Bob" - You generate AJAX page that says "Hi, Bob!" How's that?!

I think you need to get out of this mode of thinking "hm.... what kind of SELECT statement you can run on a table and turn it into HTML" Focus on PROBLEMS that need to be SOLVED. Finding what's going on around is not a problem anymore. Have

I guess alot of people, including this guy, are openly questioning "validity" of YComb's startups. Since everything they do is so trivial, can their creations be considered "products with value"? My personal issue with YComb's approach is t

I like Paul. He is one of rare cases when an engineer, besides being good at what he does (engineering), on top of that also has business smarts and CAN WRITE. That is very refreshing after all this MBA BS in the mainstream media. As an inv

I am seeing an increasing number of engineers switching to Apple @home while continuing develop under Windows only because their employer uses it. Also, more and more technical books have screenshots in them done using Mac. While I can't sa

Hm... I don't understand why did they opt to go with TWO(!) SQL servers so early. If your DB is designed well and your queries are written well, you should max out on HTTP side first. Even on super-fast ASP.NET, we started with two HTTP ser

Presentation is nice, but I would like to suggest a feature for you guys. Instead of that terrible flashy frame, why don't you by default show documents in HTML? Browser handles scrolling, selecting and picking font size much better. If I w

"I've done both desktop/server software and web software, and IMHO good web software is harder." I can only ask what kind of software have you developed, sir? If web software was harder, you wouldn't see "products" created over a weekend s

Who are you, and why do you think people should fill out your blog with news for you? How about you manually contact every Web 2.0 startup asking them for data to populate your blog with? That will make more sense: if you in need, you go o

I would not call JustinTV a technology startup. They are Web 2.0 company, i.e. they are following myriads of other "SQL to HTML converters" they are experiencing lack of data to stick to DB tables. They are unique, however, in their attemp

Are you serious? This is the idea? That you had 10 slides or whatever to present it to investors? Wholy cow. The end is near... Soon dressed up "hello world" implementations will pass by as "startup ideas". Why bother going to college and
