Re:Ask HN: Where are the famous black programmers?

I don't think the lack of diversity is an issue at all. Programmers provide solutions to problems...computers don't care about your race, age or gender when executing code.
I'm a famous black programmer...you just haven't heard much about me :)

What a terrible experience, especially from Google.
Added the phone to my shopping cart a few times and it disappeared. Oh well.

Yea right. They've been saying this for years.
How is this possible when there are so many qualified pilots looking for a job?

In Engineering we learn about a "black box" - a device that accepts an input and return an output. We couldn't careless about the parts/components inside that black box.
Sometimes we have to treat programming like a black box. All we care about is getting the desired output. There will always be time to make the code efficient later.
The end user and manager only care about the output.

You should work on the simplest idea you can think of. Start small and improve as you go. Launch something and just focus on covering the hosting cost.
Making a constant $1/day is really hard. If money is the only motivation then you'll give up really easy.

App engine is great, especially for small teams. I personally like webapp2 and click to deploy.
It's important to note the various limitations(file size,writes to file system,etc).

The iOS 6 Map issue is nothing more than a PR stunt from apple.
I think it's brilliant. What's the best way to get people talking about their new map feature?
Release a map product that is inferior to Google maps then push a major update.
Everyone will be surprise how good iOS 6 map will be in a few weeks.
