Names are hard to choose, but you shouldn't spend too much time on it at the expense of developing your idea.

It's common now to try to make an english-like brand name, but there's an implicit false assumption that everyone will be able to work out a pun-like significance, but that doesn't work in countries where english is not a first language.

Of course that depends on who your target audience is going to be.

Most of the air, in fact. If you look at http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/File:Comparison_US_standard_atm..., you will see that air density is way lower at 30km.

That is important because a lot of the energy expenditure for rockets is spent overcoming air resistance, instead of for lifting the rocket against gravity (that also is what makes the idea of a space elevator so enticing).

Once you are at 30km, getting anywhere is relatively cheap.
> That works in Python, because Python has a distinction between an "instance" object, and, say, a Dict.

Not really, it's trivial to create a dict-like object which allows access to keys as properties, just override `__getattr__`.

> In JavaScript an object is an object is an object

No, objects can have a non-null [[prototype]] indicating it was created from using `new` on a constructor.

> Klass.prototype.method = options.method;

Depends what `options` is.

For a Java developer, this is interesting since one might not be aware of new js libraries like Backbone.js. Java EE crowd seems to be too much embodied with only Java EE stuff that they should be aware of new stuff like backbone.js. Of course, for someone that frequents HN, backbone is familiar, but in the company I work (a Java EE shop), noone other than me has heard of backbone.js (not even other stuff like node.js)

For a non-Java developer, it might either break the myth that Java EE is too much based on XML, or reinforce it. Spring, JAX-RS, JSF etc. now allow no-XML configuration, and they are not as verbose as they used to; but still it might seem daunting for someone outside (I'm also someone from outside in this respect too, I have been doing Java EE only for the last 3 months, (I had Django/Python experience before) and it has been hard to get to learn all the Java EE technologies by myself (e.g. how many ways are there to do DI in Java EE? Spring, CDI, JSF, with or without XML etc.)
Figure out how well they're doing. Did you find 10 apps doing the same? Or just 1? Are they growing? Do they have lots of customers? (ie. read their blog, their jobs page etc.)

If the market is growing, figure out how, with a less mature product (at first), you could capture a part of that. If it's not growing, they've un-validated the idea for you :)

Being a user of TextMate 1.5, I don't know what issues you're referring to with "files larger than a few hundred k?" I've opened multi-megabyte XML files and dealt with them just fine. I've done regex search and replace commands, fairly complex ones, on SQL backups that are multi-megabyte without issue.

I repeat, what's the complaint?

TextMate2 is a bit rough, yes, but I don't expect better from a prerelease. As it is, it's more than enough to offer me hope that it'll be finished and that it'll be a good product.
Thanks for the correction. I used that twist of view to allude to and separate out the so-called '1%', of which appears to me to have a separate 'language' in itself.
It'd need to be mirrored and striped over a lot of strangers, as otherwise a restore would be painful, as you'd be bottlenecked by the minimal uplink speed of the average residential Internet connection.

That plus encryption probably solves a lot of the privacy concerns, too. Seems like it should be doable.

Between people being offline, random drive failures, people leaving your service, etc., I wonder what kind of redundancy would be required. 5x? 10x? No idea.

I wonder how people would respond to the offer, "get 10GB backed up, but you have to store 50GB of other people's backups". I'm guessing that sounds pretty unfair to the average Joe (but its of course what the math requires should you want 5x redundancy).
My biggest problem is that because it lacks firm rules in a lot of area, CoffeeScript is a language that is not always intuitive. With JavaScript it's pretty simple to know the rules; they are completely uniform. Not so with CoffeeScript. Here's my biggest gripe:

greet = (greeting, person) ->
"#{greeting} #{person}!"

greet "Hello", "world"

That's simple. A function that takes 2 parameters, separated by a comma. But wait, here's another:

longRunning = (onsuccess, onerror) ->
dosomething (e) ->
if not e.error? onsuccess() else onerror()

And the implementation:

longRunning
() -> "Yippee!"
() -> "Oh noes"

A function with 2 parameters, this time separated by a carriage return, not commas. How would one know that intuitively? That some times functions parameters are separated by commas and some times by carriage returns? Or that some times function calls have to include the () (when they have no parameters) and some times they don't (when they do have parameters)?

I'm sure these things become second nature over time, but learning them will result in a lot of trips to StackOverflow as you wonder why your code doesn't behave as expected.
What about SEO and accessibility. If the content is sent via JSON it's relying on javascript, no?
I though it was somebody giving advices on how to commit suicide successfully, an article I have needed sometimes but I keep missing (by successfully I mean without risk of ending fatally wounded but still alive, which will make your situation even worse). But it's yet another article trying to take the idea from your head with a list of phone numbers to call.

I think western civilization still have a rather wrong approach to the issue of somebody wanting to end his/her life voluntarily. I've felt in this situation many times (now I do, for example). I don't want advices about how beautiful life is, or why I need to change my mind, or how many people are there that loves me and that will suffer my loss. I know that. I know people will suffer, at least initially. But poeple like me, people who have no energy nor desire to go on living, are nothing but a burden to those sharing their life with. Yes, I'm depressed. Yes, I'm under medical treatment. Yes, my doctor have tried on me several different drugs and nothing have changed. I feel myself a failure and I don't think there is any chemical compound that will reprogram my brain to avoid feeling like that.

I just want to be able to exercise my free will of not going on with my life, without drama nor fanfare. But this is, for some reason, a society taboo.

I wasn't sure to share this with you (I'm sure very few people will understand my point of view).
Used car loans for bad credit london ontario canada
Mostly peoples who applies for loan with the bad credit situation get denied generally .Cause the loan lenders has the doubt in mind that is a person who has bad credit can not able to pay for vehicle loan, but now times have changed peoples get approved for bad credit loans. There are many used car dealers around Canada who can help you to get approved in bad credit situation.
Bad Credit Auto Loans are becoming well-known. They acknowledge the truth that even people with bad credit history can become their clients. Their eagerness to sell cars is also a factor that made Poor Credit Automobile Loans probable but obtaining a Car Loans with bad credit is not easy. Issues that you’ll want to know before Applying for Bad Credit Car Loan these issues are the possibility for a down payment for the car loan. This down payment just isn’t usually significant but just sufficient as researched by the automobile loan lender.
The interest rate for your Bad Credit Auto Loan normally depends on your credit. The interest rates are typically greater if you have bad credit. But if your credit is not so poor your interest rate will likely be lower Ensure you’ve learned all these things just before you decide on obtaining a poor credit car loan. But if probable, try to make your credit history far better 1st to stay away from a lot more financial difficulties inside the future.

FYI, they don't throttle bandwidth (anymore?). I know this because I started to go with Carbonite, but they throttle bandwidth to 256k. What's worse is that it gets even slower if your backup exceeds 200GB. I have a 5 Mbps upload speed and 500 GB of data to transfer, so being capped at 256k or slower wasn't going to work for me.
Plenty of people are doing this. You'll have to charge high prices to make it worthwhile to you and them. Very competitive.

Launching at a higher altitude allows the rocket engines to be optimized for low atmospheric pressure increasing their efficiency. In addition, the trajectory can be turned to a more horizontal angle earlier without having to fight drag too much.

Another benefit of air launch is the ability to launch at a location and time of one's choosing. This is useful to avoid weather, avoid flying over land when launching in certain directions, and not having to share a range with other launchers.
Not to mention that this dramatically reduces MaxQ (the maximum dynamic pressure on the airframe), which reduces design constraints on the spacecraft/upper stages of the rocket.

It's not about energy, it's about momentum and energy/weight ratio. Due to the energy density of chemical fuels, the vast majority of a space rocket's fuel is actually used to carry the _rest_ of the rocket's fuel to the altitude at which it will be burned. I'm not good with rocket physics, but I'm pretty sure that gaining a few kilometers of altitude and 1000 km/h of kinetic energy will have a large impact on the total amount of fuel/propellant required to reach orbit. Is someone in here good enough with rocket physics to comment on this?

Of course, it would be even better if they could go to business-jet altitudes or above (15000 meters instead of the 9000 quoted in the article), and I am guessing from the number and size of the engines that this is what they are actually aiming at. But this is just idle speculation on my part.

One wouldn't know that intuitively, because what you wrote:

longRunning
() -> "Yippee!"
() -> "Oh noes"

... is not valid CoffeeScript. I'm not sure where you got that from.

Ideally, you'd write it:

longRunning onSuccess, onError

Or, if you really wanted to use two inline functions instead of local variables:

longRunning (-> "Yippee!"), (-> "Oh noes")

History of Java
The first Java programming language born of The Green Project, which runs for 18 months, from early 1991 until the summer of 1992. The project is not using a version called Oak.

Most of them grudgingly bought smartphones within the last year and now wouldn't give them up. I yell at them about it but they do fail as often as they succeed. On the other hand, one of them is doing a home birth... so there is that, I guess.
It's quite a pain though to get console coloring to work properly on Windows. I wrote a utility once that batch scripts could call to set the fore/background color (just a call to SetConsoleTextAttribute() really) but in practice it's quite a pain to write scripts that color their output properly (especially once you start mixing languages of those scripts). The terminal-emulator-that-interprets-escape-sequences-as-color-change-commands is much easier for that purpose.
Stress, at least in family groups, is highly contagious hence the emphasis on Psychosocial factors in the article. It is certainly worth exploring in more detail however.
I took a look at the program, and it seems well intended and effective (at least from the web copy). I certainly and happily took similar help throughout my childhood: housing, food, clothing, education, health care, etc. and, I'm happy to now be able to support those types of programs.

But, these types of programs supply the minimum requirements for a poor kid to be accepted to the party. For them to excel, they need integration. For instance, I owe a significant portion of my success to the various middle class connections that I've had along the way. Having friends in the middle class, and especially, having those friend's parents act as guides and mentors was incredibly helpful, looking back.

Now living in one of the richest counties in the US, I see a big risk in having this income segregation. Poor kids need to have an environment where they may learn the middle class ways. And, they can't do it easily by living only among the poor.

You'd have to modify every script you ever run on a machine, and modify every command you ever type in, to make this work. Any serious solution to this problem needs to be 100% transparent to the user - i.e., wrapper programs are not an option.

Those are all good points. It would be something that you'd really have to stay on top of in order to ensure that your backups are happening. Bandwidth for restores would definitely be a big issue since the typical home only probably has around a 1 Mbps upload speed.
What to do with greedy investors?
I've been working on my new start-up for 3 months now. Basically, it'll be the first payments-enabled marketplace for end users in my country with great potential to actually take over the domestic market.

Two investors have already heard of it and made an (IMHO, greedy) offer: an "angel" investment of ~30K (plus office space) for 60% of the company - they'd practically own me. This "investment" would be charged to the company these "investors" work for, but the deal is that both of them get 20% each and their company getting 20% (yeah).

The thing is; both me and my co-founder are pretty much broke since we've been working on this only, so we won't be able to proceed without some kind of investment. I don't know many people who invest in start-ups here and I don't know where to look for them at all. I know about funds like 500startups and YC but I don't think it's worth even applying or pitching their mentors about a product that's targeted for our market only.

Please, enlighten me; what should I do and where should I look for a better deal?

I happen to live outside hipster nation, so it took a while to load stuff. It did OK at letting me know this was in progress, but it could have been better. Had I not been reviewing it, I might have abandoned it.

Going to the second page of items took longer than it should have.

Returning to the site, it seems to want to start over acquiring the location. Can you not insert some memory for place in a first-party cookie?

The place-locator button won't turn green unless the place is spelled perfectly. It's case sensitive.

You might rethink the "generic" language shown to those who decline fb / tw access. Of course, if your monetizing scheme requires access to those services, maybe you're doing the right thing.

Data-wise, it seems to repeat items when there aren't enough items to fill its UI. Maybe it's only fair that there should be lots of dunkins and starbucks on line; there are in real life. But it's a little hokey looking.

The Google Maps placemark (red ice-cream-cone with rectangle in it) is recognizable. It looks like an affordance to get to a map. But it isn't. The scroll-in Click To Expand does exactly the same thing as clicking on the picture or the placemark, as far as I can tell. Also, the cursor doesn't change anywhere within a place listing. Lost opportunity for UX depth?

Thanks for the chance to review this. All the best.

IIRC, you're Node.js evangelist? What's your take on Node.js (server) + Backbone.js (or dust.js as mentioned here)? Not for all, but for Trello like client apps?
Yeah, I would guess that the needle is moved more by trends in people opening restaurants, shops, auto mechanics, etc. There aren't enough Silicon Valley startups with non-founder employees to account for a very big chunk of that 400,000 new companies per year figure. I believe VC-funded tech startups are only ~500/year or so, for example. Presumably angel-funded startups are several times that, but I'm not sure enough times it to be noticeable in the aggregate trends (especially since we can only count angel-funded companies who've hired non-founder employees).
You take the "useless pedantic comment of the year" award.

Yeah, "it's a language". In bloody THEORY.

In reality it's also ONE, and only ONE, specific implementation widely used. In reality the language IS the compiler.

And that implementation compiles to JS, not as an implementation detail but as it's sole reason to exist.

Thanks for posting this.

I got started in standup about 10 years ago and went from doing 2-minutes at an open mic to MC at the DC Improv for Robert Schimmel in something like 4 years. That's 4 years of getting on stage every chance I got and trying to write material that was funny and current. It gets old quick. When it came time to make a decision about comedy (which I loved then and still do), it became more about opportunity cost (as you put it) and lifestyle factors. My next move was to go out on the road and to be honest, that life just didn't appeal to me. Add in the stress of dealing with club managers, never having enough money, and circulating among other comics with various levels of personal disfunction and addiction issues and I opted for a "boring" life in tech.

Show business is a tough life and it's the rare individual who can make a go at it and find success enough to have a "normal" life. My observation has been that the stress of the performer career/lifestyle leads to substance abuse faster than almost any other career choice outside of high finance.

The next time you see a comedian performing in a comedy club, consider this: unless he's the headline act, he probably made something like $50-$75-$150 for his performances for the entire night depending on how long he was on stage. If that sounds good for 20 or 30 minutes of "work", figure out how much time was spent travelling and writing material before you do your final calculation. Nobody gets rich off of middle money.
