> all I can say is, buy a B+ domain name, expect B+ results. Fair enough. I guess the expense could be justifiable if a good domain name really helps. I'm just wondering about quantifying the risks/costs. If it fails, you c

I like the idea of using expiring domain names to generate business ideas (especially domain names that are fetching a good price). But what if, instead of buying the domain name, you... didn't buy it? What if, instead of dropping $5K

What's a good resource on how to do this? How does the "income" part actually come back to you? Do you sell a little stock each month?

I've found that reading sci-fi/fantasy before going to sleep helps me transition to sleep mode. I think it's because sci-fi problems are really somebody else's problem, so my brain can let them drop when I put the book

Why do we need so many different VMs anyway? Is it it just history and politics? Are, e.g. Python and Ruby so different that, if implementing from scratch today it would make sense for each of them to have its own VM? What about the CLR

From the "choosing an interpreter" section: > Also use Python 2.7.x if you’re starting to work on a new Python module. Is this a generally accepted guideline? I'd have thought Python 3 would have caught on by now.

I'm guessing 5k + 5k per founder for ~6% of the company wouldn't work for a later stage company. Would this be more like a Series A investment?
