Weird, they're all working for me.

Is it just me or does this logic not make sense? You put a lot of effort in -> you get good at it -> you become passionate about it. How do you choose what to put effort into? Answer: what you're passionate about.
Re:Stripe Button (beta) on Wednesday October 10, 2012 @02:49AM (#4635337)
This is awesome guys, great work. One quick nitpicky thing that I don't think has been addressed yet: In Safari after the cancel button has been clicked, clicking the button fades in, then out, and in again before you can enter anything. Edit I'm using Safari 5.1, doesn't seem to happen in 6.

It's not my app, I just thought it looked pretty cool. I don't see a price tag anywhere either.

Right, because North Dakota is a far more enjoyable place for a teenage kid to live than the state that's home to Las Vegas (;

Seriously, that's awesome.
Re:Finding a Technical Cofounder on Tuesday November 15, 2011 @12:00AM (#3237102)
Fair enough, Steve Jobs serves as a prime example for this. Wozniak was a far better engineer than Jobs. I guess I should have elaborated, you don't need to be a coding ninja to run a startup but I do honestly feel that a solid understanding of coding and computer systems is essential for any tech entrepreneur.

My vote is for the learn to code approach.
Twitter seemed to give the power of Ruby on Rails a bad name, but wrongfully so. Rails is actually extremely flexible, scalable, and powerful. It actually runs some of the most powerful and heavy web applications out there; namely GitHub, Basecamp, and Groupon.

Pretty cool idea, but when using this app aren't there a few different people fighting for control? I feel like that might get kind of frustrating.
