What's that got to do with the price of butter?
Woosh
'Compulsory schooling is, at least in theory, for the students' own good.' Rubbish. Schooling is for the good of society. Schooling != Education. Nothing in school benefits the student. Everything is about preparing the…
The US is going to be in a world of hurt. With Europe not far behind in the pain stakes. As always the countries with the most open markets will recover first. Un-fettered markets are not the end solution but they are…
Look around you. It's the people. Dumb and ignorant.
Because time and time again people with a formal education in computer science have turned out to be useless in the commercial arena. Let's face facts most programming is not rocket science and could easily be…
The freedom to develop code I want to in the manner I wish to. Enough of the usual crappy corporate tools/procedures/apathy. To be judged on what I produce not how many hours I'm in the office. Rewards equal to my…
SFO International is pretty cool. Very open and light with decent A/C.
Potter! Stop bragging, ten points from Gryffindor.
How do you reduce weight? Reduce your intake or increase your metabolism. How do you keep weight off? Understand there is no short cuts. Basically, follow a steady diet that maintains your weight. In short cut out…
Great minds etc. I was also looking at ERP after working in the field for a number of years. I was planning on coming from a very different angle. Hosting a very configurable system that required little or no manual…
The animated film is a classic :-)
I grew up in the UK and now live in the US. In both countries a college education has gone from being something of value to waste of time due to lowering of standards. Leaving no child behind will probably destroy what…

All that time spent in school you'd be better off sticking it out,
39 + B.Sc.(Hons) CompuSci
Then write a code generator.
There are more crimes committed than the police can ever keep up with. So they prioritize crimes of varying types. Why have they prioritised ticketing members of the public on the freeways for minor speed offenses? The…
If you are happy with the posted speed limits and see the police as only law enforcement then nothing I have to say will make a difference.
Arguable how? To my mind they are nothing but revenue generation. A visible speed trap is far more defensible. Not vague warnings but highly visible specific identification. Even better put these speed traps where they…
Find a co-contributor. Carigslist etc. Put out an ad on the gigs forum. As a dev coming at it from the other angle. I have the skills but not many business ideas. But I also have clear ideas what I'm willing to work on.…
I just inc'd in CA, I looked at LLC but that's a partnership and I'm doing this alone. I went for the quick and easy route. I'm looking to build a good product not a big corporation. The less time I spend having to futz…
I follow LtU not always able to comprehend the points made after all I program in a language worse than blub, I kid you not. But nothing on there has ever come across as radical more of an evolution and sometimes it's…
That would be a good thing. The only issue I see is that YC seems to be entirely focused on success in the Web 2.0 and software arenas. PARC had a much broader remit. It appears to me that nobody is doing blue sky…
