Well, develop a program for Linux, and then for Windows. The Windows one will net you more. I'm a Linux dev as well, but I know how things are, I'm not a narrow minded dipshit.

Hey, if you're stupid enough to use Derby over Meteor, I have absolutely no right and more importantly, no obligation to help you make the better choice.
Everyone has a right to be fucking stupid.
Re:Ask HN: What is App.net? I really didn't get it
on Saturday July 28, 2012 @02:07AM (#4304847)
If you don't get it, then why do you need to know? Obviously it wasn't clear enough to attract your attention, so why waste your time with a product that can't even explain itself clearly?
That's my thinking anyways.

The wording bothers me because I'm nitpicky.
If your talent was truly unlimited, you could do every startup.
If your money was unlimited, then you would probably get assassinated.

There's a small, but critical difference.
There's 11 million dollars on Meteors side.

No. You cannot contend against 170 million.

Re:We’re just monkeys developing games in the era of early primates
on Wednesday July 25, 2012 @12:56AM (#4289428)
I think social gaming is doomed by default. A person navigates to Facebook or Twitter because each company has identified itself and has locked in to the consumer. Even GhostTown+ has locked in as a personality based around being a social-er Skype. Seeing games and stuff is just a sideshow. People don't go to social networking sites to play games. It's possible to force this behavior (Zynga), but it's been shown and realized that it can't be sustained, and will eventually burn out. (ZYNGA)

It's been this way for a long time. Opera is such a fantastic browser, it's a shame to see giants like Google turn their backs to it for whatever reason.

Re:Who cares about the stock price, Zuck should win the Nobel Peace Prize

Okay, I am a huge fan of the gay community, but if I was reading the news one morning and saw that Zuckerboy got a Nobel Peace Prize, you know damn well that I would spit coffee everywhere. He's done a lot of good, but he's done just as much bad. I'm not concerned enough to properly counter this article, but I think I've made myself pretty clear.

I hope so. I love the hype for aspiring devs, but most of these demos are shit. I'm sorry for being coarse, but that's just the way the code compiles, I guess.

Re:Ask HN: What are you Building?
on Wednesday May 30, 2012 @06:45PM (#4045279)
I'm building a web package in Lua/Kepler. The idea is that you install it, create an admin account, and then decide what you want the site to be. If you want a wiki, then it installs wikimedia and configures all that. If you want a blog, it'll install a custom blog software with lots of extensibility. If you want CMS, then it will install Joomla/Drupal/Whatever, and you can configure all of that. If you want forums, then you can install phpbb/vbullshit/custom forum software.
Right now, I'm mostly designing blogging software and forum software. I plan on making everything first, releasing it all separately, then just packing it all up as a chameleon package once everything is finished.
You know, the usual.
