Re:Hilarious Ubuntu/Linux experience parody on Saturday January 24, 2009 @06:50AM (#448031)

Why does the title mention Ubuntu? It's interesting to see how people now associate Linux with Ubuntu. And that's a good thing. It means that the desktop revolution is on it's way!

Re:Examples of successful migrations of desktop apps to the Web? on Thursday October 23, 2008 @10:06AM (#341162)

Yes, Google's proprietary Web applications are a great example of desktop applications that where ported to the Web:

Gmail (proprietary) = Thunderbird (open-source) Google Docs (proprietary) = OpenOffice (open-source) Google Reader (proprietary) = RSSOwl (open-source)

They forgot to add the "download source" link at the bottom of the page.

Re:Ask HN: Bet the farm. Python or PHP? on Wednesday July 30, 2008 @02:39PM (#262126)

1. Based on content management: PHP. The biggest publishing site on the Web, Wordpress, uses it.

2. Based on libraries: PHP. You have PECL, PEAR, ezComponent, Zend and many others. Whatever you need, it has it.

3. Based on syntax: PHP. It's damn simple.

4. Based on deployment: PHP. It's fast and painless.

5. Based on execution model. PHP. mod_php, as an apache module, works and it’s scalable.

6. Based on frameworks: PHP. Symfony and Zend Framework offer a modular, MVC, loosely-couple architecture. They not only provide a solid infrastructure, but also an extensive component library.

7. Based on performance: Any, as long as you cache everything.

Good luck!
