Generally I agree, but the topics of his books (SPDY, Dart, and backbone ) are all extremely new technologies. Like they have all been released only in the past year. Very few people have a ton of real world experience with these. So I thin

Also the study doesn't seem to take into account cost of living & salary differences between regions. So the list is dominated by California and east coast schools where salaries are highest.

No personal experience, but you should check out the book bumfuzzle: http://www.amazon.com/Bumfuzzle-Just-Looking-Pirates-ebook/d... Its about some guy and his wife that had zero sailing experience and decided to sail around the world, pr

Interesting, what kind of marketing are you doing for the app? How are people hearing about it, just market searches? 1000+ downloads of a 2.99 app in the first couple weeks is pretty impressive, well done

On codecademy: "The start-up boasts over 200,000 users and claims several tech giants have already approached them about hiring their recent graduates." I didn't understand this sentence, is it saying tech giants have asked to hire users th

Have you tried using webmeeting software for this ( like webex, or gotomeeting, or even skype )? Then you can just share your whole screen / environment with someone remotely. That is what I usually do.

I think your site needs some work, both the design and the chicken and egg participation problem. However obviously there is some value in having scrapers for every state legislature. Maybe you should pivot and become an api provider for th

Not 100% sure, but I think the moneymaker and core competency for skype is not video chat. I have a skype account, I pay for a personalized USA number that people can call with their phones and reach me around the world, I also pay for the

Its not good. I love my kindle, but for textbooks it kind of sucks. Granted I have the smaller one. Formulae are ok from what I have seen, but graphs and charts are almost impossible to read. Also its annoying because often times a paragrap

yea I run a couple book sites and one time a person clicked on one of my book links and ended up buying a couple thousand dollars worth of camera equipment. Jackpot!

Instead of mortgages, if you focus on the payday loan industry ( particularly online ), you won't need $billions of dollars. You could hold your own loans and probably scale up from 6 figures. The issues are pretty much the same as mortgage

Agreed, also: Give away visual studio for free ( the full 'professional' version ). Buy out jetbrains and make resharper a msft product that you must pay for. Make windows phone 7 rock, so that mobile development takes off. Work with mono

Startup digest is smart because it just sends out lists of events. While it does take some effort to do the research to find these events, it seems like it would be easier to put together than a full fledged magazine like most of these news

There is quite a big difference between Gmail and a just for fun ascii art generator. I could see this guy being upset if he wasn't given credit for it. But the new version gave credit to his original from the very start. Kind of a weird th

I don't think that would be a very good move. If you have a serious health problem ( heart attack, stroke, accident ), you will not have time to fill out all of the paperwork and buy insurance because you will need help immediately. Also

Well I'm a kindle fanboy, but I don't really think 250$ is that much for a kindle . An ipod costs the same amount I agree with the kiosk idea though, once you've tried out a kindle you would never consider reading a book on a non-e-ink scre

what is the business model on this guy's Tortola travel guide site? It seems like he isn't selling anything. Is he paying .07$ for adwords clicks hoping those people click on the ads on his site, he must have a crazy ctr to get that to work
