I wrote an Erlang API for DDB while it was still private. I'm hoping my client will let me opensource it in the near future.

You can already install XCode through the App Store. Soon, that will be compulsory.

Not what I heard last time I asked ;-). How about > 250K for a small multi-core installation?

17-18 cents (in Spain) is nowhere cheap. It's 60 cents if I want to SMS my daughter in the States. I'm actually considering buying both of us Blackberries for that very reason. I could (sort of) do BBM with iPhone push notifications and a u

Are you sure it sharpens? I have a similar setup due to my somewhat african-american hair. Grows in all directions and grows in. Used to have a TON of problems with various non-electric razors. Nowadays I do a pass with the trimmer part of

Developers are going out of business and don't have money to finish properties. Banks are saddled with large inventory of foreclosed properties and are getting rid of it very slowly, hoping not to show large losses, I think. The asking pric

I looked into that and was very surprised at how small the payout is. I could buy 500k or 1mm of life insurance in the US from what I remember. Here in Spain it's 50k or 100k or a similarly small amount.

I tried buying strangles and stradles a few times, up to a few small bets ($40-50) at a time. There's a substantial difference on whether the earnings announcements are after hours in the evening or in the morning, for example. I think I wo

I don't pay taxes. Mine is an offshore company and I'm not yet a resident of Spain. I hope to start paying about 20% in taxes by the end of this year, I'm sick and tired of being an illegal alien.

What led to my blockbuster year? Luck and my desire to work more. I used to work 1-2 weeks out of 4, that was enough for everything since my burn rate is low (3-3.5K EUR/mo). I sailed for about 8 weeks in the first half of 2008, for example

I own a Mathematica license and played with R a bit. I just don't know how to develop an edge with statistics yet.

Roel, I was thinking of a regular 20% downpayment, maybe a little more. That's about 30% with closure costs in Spain.

I don't have a craving to sit in front of my computer and create code. I have a craving to learn things, get to the bottom of things, solve tough challenges. I also like selling. I spent a year as a commission-only sales person, selling tra

Thanks! I think it stands to have more success than the Erlang book I never finished :D.

I have a very understanding family and my wife works lightly while she babysits the younger daughter. I think I can still manage to accomplish something.

Umm... I forgot to mention that I'm still an illegal alien :). My wife received her residence just last year so the BMW (1.5 y.o when bought) was really a gift to her. Plus, I really wanted one after driving the 2004 Fiat Punto (no air cond

Looks great. Need to figure out whether the built-in GPS is good or how to connect an external one.

Agreed. My edge here is that my wife (receiving travel agent) gets a flow of tourists that need accommodation. It's not even necessary to rent the units long-term, packing the summer and a few winter weeks, for example, should pay the mortg

I think there's money to be made in trading Apple against Nokia, RIMM, etc. This just needs a LOT of research. I agree with the rest. I'm not planning to use more than 25-30K if I trade and 0.5-1% of that on every trade. Proper money manage
