What questions? I'm sure this is illegal.

I prefer having a car - I can put my surfboard on the roof, I can put my bikes on the back. I can always have the boot / trunk full of camping and beach stuff. It's far more convenient than relying on taxis and hire cars. Really h

My point still stands. There's funny and then theres blatent fanboyism. You're like a prepubescent teenager who doesn't understand the context of social situations so always says something stupid.

The perl one liner was funny, the shell one liner was light hearted, but your node solution is just pure fanboyism and quite frankly not in line with the spirit of the two previous posts.

What if google.com isn't resolvable from the host? The quality of person on HN has gone down hill.

You're wrong. You can still be in control of a botnet (for example) even if it gets discovered and you can't spell 'losing'.

I know what the number is ffs.. I just have no context. You were surprised at the votes... Why? You just showed surprise without any explanation.

Downvote, I have no idea what this is by looking at the first few lines of the homepage.

I would downvote this if I could. I have no idea what your reference to 44 points means. Is that good? Is that bad? Why do I need to know?

A very bad UI. I shouldn't have to guess how to go to the next slide.

I'm just asking you not to lie or give stupid advice to other users who might take your advice seriously. You need to grow up.

Never EVER say "I should be fired for this". You probably mean it as a little joke. Getting yelled at for screwing up is not the right time to make a joke. Unless of course you are serious, in which case you're an idiot. Saying something t

I don't understand why this was down voted? Surely I make a good point? I'm sure there is a lot of amazing talent that don't spend any time at all working on stuff that other people will ever get to see beyond the domain of what they are wo

Your startup scares me. I don't have much viewable to the public therefore you would rank me pretty low without actually realising that I might be an amazing programmer who has just spent all of his time being amazing rather than being part

Take a look at the london contracting market. There is no room for anyone who isn't experienced. London doesn't have little cheap contracts were front end devs can come and work for no money. All the contracts are for serious companies payi

HN News makes it look like everyone uses apple and javascript or some fairly new and obscure functional language. A hell of a lot of people are doing really good work with Java. I use Linux, Eclipse and Java at work and I know a lot of othe

Speaking from experience, most of what you say is wrong. Most of the contracting positions available in London (where I live) are only available to experienced professionals. There's no way anyone is going to hire a nobody for £500 per day.

Nonsense. Getting a programming job at a company that uses the technologies you want to work with will seriously help you move into another role in the near future. Even if the company is crap. It's nice that some people will care about you

I don't know about that. Some of the Java libraries that were written in C were long ago converted to Java and they run faster. It's hard to say that the JVM is faster or slower than X because it usually comes down to the way in which the a

Many companies depend on Java for their mission critical infrastructure and applications. I used to work at a world leading investment bank who's entire low latency, high scalable trading platforms were built in Java. Just about every large

Also, they use websense which holds a master list of categorised sites so it is very very likely that a lot of other people from other companies and universities also see your site as flagged. You should email websense and ask to get your U

I'm not really sure to be honest. Job boards and such things are not blocked. I've never this category before. It's not blocked; it's just flagged. edit: just noticed it has a secondary category as: "potentially damaging content"

This site is flagged as "Sites likely to contain little of no useful content" by my Universities web filtering software.

Typical HN downvotes. Far too busy circle jerking over your failed statups that rarely lead to anything other than wasted youth.

Down voting me because you don't agree with me is stupid.

I'm glad that I've spent the last couple of years making a name for myself in the big consultancy firms. I may have to work as hard as a start-up founder but at least I get a nice pay packet and none of this '6years out of college with no c

They force you to use their hosted service rather than allowing you remote access to an API though.

by zxcvb 16y ago
Please note I'm not talking about a database. I'm talking about an api to an existing sites database or a service where multiple sites use and update the same database.
