This release looks awesome. I remember when Flat first launched and I was really hoping to be able to use it as a replacement for Sibelius (which is the only reason I have to keep a Windows VirtualBox on my Ubuntu machine). In the early days it wasn't quite there yet and was missing some important features that I needed for arranging scores. I will definitely be giving it another try, the product has come a long way since then. Kudos to the team!

Oh right. I didn't get it. I thought tech homeopathy was some new framework / library / approach I hadn't heard about. Maybe homeopathy.js or similar? On the plus side, your comment did make me re-watch this: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HMGIbOGu8q0

This is really interesting. Would you consider writing a more in-depth post on this? I'd love to read it.

What do you mean by that? Not sure I understand your point
Re:Why is it so difficult to find an office for my startup? on Wednesday February 26, 2014 @06:31AM (#7304225)
This post really underlines my own experience of trying to find an office space for a startup in London. There are so many sharks out there, and everyone tries to get you to sign a 3 year (or more!) lease. We might not be around in 6 months! But co-working spaces are sometimes just as bad, especially the ones which are basically just feeder funnels for landlords who want you to upgrade to one of their serviced offices / large units (looking at you, ClubWorkspace). I think what Spacious is doing is really cool therefore - and I'll definitely be trying out the service when our current office space expires at the end of March :)

Hey! Author here - it is a bit creepy, I suppose! Sorry about that. I might need to tweak the theme :)

Re:Show HN: Making Coding Fun Again on Monday October 07, 2013 @12:47PM (#6509466)
I really love this - a really fun and interesting idea. It's the sort of thing I could imagine introducing to somebody with no real interest in "learning to code" and then watching them fall in love with it. A bit like picking up a foreign language in a really enjoyable way. Might show my mum later... :)
