This could only last so long. Eventually, you would realize you become smarter and have much more knowledge as you age. Also, other things will eventually kick in. So now is probably a good time to learn as much as you can, by giving yours

I guess I found my solution by searching HN. I thought we don't have search anymore since searchyc closed down....and didn't come to HN much in a while. Anywho....looks like it's a good idea to host the app at shared hosting site first, and

Wow that's some story... It is so awesome to know that you (one of us) actualy made his dream come true in such a short period of time... I am sure we all get to hear "do the logical/right thing and take that job" strategy from their family

Well said. I also think if you REALLY want it, you can make it work. It will probably be way harder. I am someone who is on the same boat, working full time on a completely separate project, and working on side to get my web app all setup.

From the article "For example, those with a childhood IQ of less than 75 ("very dull") go to bed around 23:41 on weeknights in early adulthood, whereas those with a childhood IQ of over 125 ("very bright") go to bed around 00:29." Wait,

But if I up vote, that doesn't let the person know I up voted it. Aren't we supposed to let people know that I care? I am not sure anonymous up voting helps so much. It only says your link is popular, but you never get to see who liked it,

Why the down vote? I don't understand. I just liked that quote.

Right on point. Yesterday, we went to Romano's Macaroni Grill. My dinner was delayed by an hour, and the manager apologized. And I was not angry. I understood. I got it. How tough it could be to make things run perfectly. I think we learn a

Really? From what I know about Carlin, he was onto comedy for at least >3 years before he started getting some attention. Before that it was just a job that barely kept his expenses going. And I am pretty sure that was not the kind of w

Wow, Google is giving away their OS for free, and Motorola is locking it up. It's not even theirs to lock up. We PAID for it....do they not get the concept of money or what?

So, I kinda got a little too excited when I heard a new desktop. But then, I have already seen all these concepts pretty much, haven't I? From what I got form the article, it seems like we will only get a couple of new "shortcuts". I REALL

I sense from this comment that you are trying to do what a lot of my Indian friends seem to do. They try to weigh work vs. benefits scenario. That's not the right way to live life. You need to find your passion in work. It's a lot like fi

I don't think that starting late would have been your issue. Most people tend to avoid risks, and like to live easier life any given day. I am 26, and I asked my friends to join my startup when I was 25, still no one seems to want to take

Score 1, Still feel like I am close to failing. I hope I was in CA, but then again, my problem was so peculiar, and so tough ( NP-Complete), it will probably take more time to build than it might require doing other parts of business. I cer

Interesting. I would like to know more about your accomplishments. I am pretty sure others here would agree. It's not every day that we find successful examples,and the general consensus has been that people over 40 are "not stupid enough"

I had the EXACT same experience. Same situation, same results. Although I never called my credit card company to do a charge back. In fact, right until this moment, I did not even know I can do this. It's been a year now. I am a cofounder a

I know I am going to get down voted probably here. But seriously, if you are starting out, Java might be a very good thing to start with too. As a language, it's very mature. The documentation is pretty good. I know setup might be a a littl

Right. I was referring more to the whole "Unions tend to go more towards some sort of combo of blackmail/ bribery". Or they just end up being controlled by a few union leaders, and then we are serving another middle man (union leader), who

Same here....knew about it and assumed everyone else knows about it too. I think a lot of good stuff remains hidden because people never really 'reach' them. And the ones who know about it, don't care to keep reminding people, since repeti
