The shape and the size of the keys is more important that what is displayed on them.

Maybe they shouldn't have tracked sex of a child as compared to the weather on the day of conception or delivery of the child. To work out if kids conceived on a rainy day where more likely to be boys or girls. I have a confession to make.

The lack of cash for the gig isn't really the problem here. I think the problem is that the person asking for work is poor at business. If he is expecting this guy to work for free, he should make him feel super important, ask for advice an

I'm working on something similar. Turns out scrapping a small part of the problem. I don't use beautifulsoup. Turns out you can transform html of a page into a list, which can easily be scrapped. Now that I have used it to extract data out

This is what I use at the moment. But, I find that the cycle is too long. I end up spending 10-15 minutes on something that could have been caught in real-time with something with auto-complete or a debugger.

I've just tried this, and it looks good. The code-completion feature is pretty good. Turns out it's good enough that I can ignore the need for a debugger. Probably will need to buy pro as the sftp feature is disabled in the community versio

I think there will be other ways to distribute the app than the itunes app store. You have access to the users contacts, so with permission you can send the others an email/sms containing a request for the app. Similar to facebook, myspace

You need to go and raise some money so that you don't have to do such a hard sell. If you can't do that, and want to wait until you have a prototype then look to hire someone on a contract. If it works out then you can make them an offer to

This guy is mistaken. It's not good enough to track large files. So I think it's very unlikely that it's what one needs to deal with all of our data needs. It works for small files and big trees of source, but personal data is not like that

I've been working on this for a little while now. You can definitely write a plug-in or pattern matching file for each site. Building a specific crawler for each website doesn't make sense. The custom bits you need are then ones that fill t

From the Ruby side the difference is the quantity and quality of libraries that are available. You are likely to find stuff that is currently been worked on, with CL this can be a real problem. There are a lot of half done libraries, so you

That was unfortunate. But the community did jump in and tried too help. There was no one else saying or doing anything weird. Anyone can do something stupid. It was stupid and mean.

How long have you guys been debating this? If it's longer than a day, that it's just a mechanism to help you not get started. Just write it, open the editor and make the first page, then the second and so on. Get the site built so that it w

I'm wondering if the problems happened because of some sort of economic downturn, or lack of available credit. I thought most of the time people just re mortgaged after the 2-3 year fixed deal.

There is only one way. You need to pick a problem and then try to solve it. The problem needs to have depth and should require some gumption on your part. Unfortunately, days when you try and solve one problem for a long time can be common.

They could have easily gone back on their offer like they had done after the last war when India committed 1000s of soldiers.

Book the damn flight. Go meet your friends. If and when the time is right, open up about what is happening. Otherwise, just say that you are there to get away from it for a bit.

I don't think there is demand for another search engine that is 10% better than Google. Whatever comes along that can challenge Google, isn't going to be a "search engine" in a traditional sense of the word. Because Google mostly works and
