Not really, both these designs look allright for their purposes - if you can't get more visitors/usage, then I guess there is no mass need for this kind service - or you are doing a poor job at marketing aspects. Design won't fix that and y

I think it should go without saying, but there is one more point I'd add to this list: Learning never stops - don't be ignorant. Suprisingly, I still deal with many developers that write procedural code with if/else statements, up to 4 or m

Yes, that's my experience - nearly all my developer mates switched to ZSH (including me) and never looked back. It's perfectly fine that it's not installed on remote machines, it's not that different from bash for basic stuff - in fact I sw

Thanx for the explanation, however Bash is slowly losing fight with ever more popular ZSH (and oh-my-zsh on top of it)

I think you got me wrong there, I didn't want to underestimate the value of developers' skills - I merely tried to point out that equity shouldn't be given lightly. What if I had 2 or 3 first employees ? Should I give 20 to each one of the

And what if I give you 30% and it turns out that you're not that good? Not worth the risk IMHO.

I'm the technical co-founder of my own startup ( http://carmivore.com ) and I can't say I agree with this one. See, developers are easy to find (yes, probably not the best ones, but since I'm a developer myself I know a good one when I see

I agree with the last statement, however, the chance of Stripe/Paymill going out of business pretty much equals that of Wirecard going haywire.

Yeah, but the problem is you still need a gateway, whereas with Stripe/Paymill, everything is included. Luckily, Braintree now supports EU as well.

That's actually great news, why would Europeans have to wait for an undisclosed date Stripe gives (or rather, doesn't give).

This kind of money is clearly a message the world needs a product like this. Hopefully existing players (Sony, M$) will think about it a bit. I hate the fact that my PS3 is still considered the latest generation of consoles and is now more

What I find most amusing is that many of these self-proclaimed hackers/developers don't get it . You can ask the same question all over again for days only to get off-topic replies. Sadly, most of the ones I dealt with are also based in In

I think the most obvious question is, how does the new Passenger (and Enterprise) compare to the traditional setup, nginx+unicorn in terms of reliability, security and performance?

For those of us who are easily distracted I would recommend a wonderful tool called Rescue Time ( http://rescuetime.com/ ) It doesn't solve the problem but helps you analyze it.
