Re:Poll: HN readers, where's your residence? on Thursday December 01, 2011 @09:19AM (#3299794)
You found one!

I live in Jerusalem, and I am also a web developer

I think the reason for the difference is this one was so simple. From the title, I knew what it was going to be. With yours it was a little over complicated. From the title of HN post, to the website
Re:Ask HN: I learned PHP, MySql, Jquery. Now what? on Wednesday November 23, 2011 @04:58AM (#3269470)
none. I tried learning cake once, but just thought it would be easier to just do straight up PHP. I know I'm wrong but, I guess I was just trying to get immediate gratification

Well all my ideas are web apps...

Why move on from web development?

And I know both c++ and java. But all my ideas are all web apps, I can't think of anything for desktop development.

Ask HN: I learned PHP, MySql, Jquery. Now what?

I am really really proficient in the above listed languages because I love web development, and I just hack with those all day. But I feel like I'm missing something...I feel like there's more to learn and more to do...Can you please enlighten me, and many other people in my position, and tell us what to do next?

Re:How Israel turned itself into a high-tech hub on Tuesday November 22, 2011 @01:03PM (#3266551)
First you say Israel doesn't rightfully own the west bank, and then you say Israel should give all west bank Arab residents citizenship?

You'r contradicting yourself.

Re:How Israel turned itself into a high-tech hub on Tuesday November 22, 2011 @01:00PM (#3266535)
No one is overlooking the way Israel treats the natives. They treat the Jews fine! Oh, by natives you meant Arabs? Well that would just be a fallacy to say that.

In South Africa, the minority ruled OVER the majority. THAT is the definition of apartheid. In Israel, the Majority rules the minority. Which is the definition of democracy.

Also, there is a reason they are called "Arabs" and not "Israeli", its because they are originally from Arabia, not Israel. They have no roots in Israel.

Re:Ask HN: Should startups invest in business cards? on Tuesday November 15, 2011 @12:15PM (#3239039)
Yes, 100%

A startup can't generate revenue or even continue, without the spread of word of mouth, which is a BIG way to get new customers.

I've been there when you don't have a business card and it does 2 things:

    - You look really unprofessional

    - That's one person that will never remember you again.
I would advise vistaprint.com, they give 250 free business cards, you just have to pay shipping. Here's the link: vistaprint.com/thankspandora
