For every dollar that a "Steve Jobs" type produces, 10 are produced by people "launch and iterate". Business is about making good decisions as often as possible, which the latter methodology seems to do better.

I am going to play devils advocate here, as I loved the book, "Trust Me, Im Lying", and a lot of what is written in there pertains to this "drama". The person controlling that twitter account is probably a little too emotionally invested,

Be careful. Sound advice in any situation. But, most things I have found that are the right thing to do cause physical/emotional harm, at least in the short term.

The biggest problem with forums like this, is the tendency for people to answer questions that the OP didn't ask.

You can do an "on demand" submission at any time, typically though, it is not cost effective. 99% of our work is done via screen printers, which is a time consuming process, some will bid a small number like that, some won't. Everything i

We haven't formalized "sign up" per se with the printers, we have relationships with with a bunch though, the site says 100s, its not quite there just yet, but hope to be in the next couple of weeks.

At this point, its all pretty personal. There are only two of us on the team, and the 888 number actually gets directed straight to my cell. I hear what you are saying though, the plan is to build it out, but I wanted to get in front of cu

Wait until you hear it said in a commercial. It really makes you hate.

I am a fan of chef, we use it at cloudpokerdb.com for all of our configuration management. The Ruby Scripts vs Config Files rings true (at least it did when I first compared the two a while back). Im sure you can do it with puppet, but ch

Do one for mashups similar to Kap Slap's spring break mix, and you can have my first born.

"who I think as a whole were shitty savers and rather shitty parents." I agree, also except for mine, who was for all intents an purposes an immigrant. This was a really great post. Look to the people who grew up with nothing to learn that

Does anyone have any information on what their infrastructure looks like? What do they use to manage their servers? I guess a lot of this information would be "proprietary" but scaling something this large would be a great read. I manage

In my experience, I think you are assuming wrongly. The efficiency comes from speed, and nothing else in my opinion. It could be because I am too dumb to grasp theory, and can not learn without doing and failing/succeeding and then subse

This is scalable, I am not sure why people are saying it isn't. In its current form, no, but if he puts it into high gear and takes it to the next level, there is no reason he couldn't repeat this model, hire managers etc and be completely

This. 100 times this. For the people who actually matter (for non design/web related projects).... the customers, they do not even notice. If you aren't going after designers, or web devs themselves, bootstrap looks very professional....

I worked full time in a DC for a couple years, and pretty much all of the above is possible, but you will pay for what you don't do yourself. Most servers in the wild, at least where I work, are Dell or HP (both with 4 hour hardware replac
