I am currently at the point where we are starting serious heads of terms for an acquihire of my 4 man business to a major XYZ company and could use a little advice. In parti....

While I would happily proclaim that my ur language is Ruby, I spend increasingly large amounts of time these days using Python.

Our attention spans are short. Even more when looking for new information. We get flooded by different sources. Most of them contain little useful information. Content should be concise, packed with information and clean of empty prose. Focused around examples. Remove everything not related to the title. When was the last time you spent more than 15 minutes reading a single piece of information? That is why I started writing recipes .

I have now uploaded all source code I wrote that I use to build this website! The corresponding link is in the menu; the document it links to also contains more info on licensing. With it, and the tools I use, you would be able to reproduce my website completely. I decided not to use a Git or Hg repo for various reasons, but really, just check it out. But why? Of course, this is a static site, and there is not much that is extremely origi....

Most founders in tech will tell you that they’re a contrarian But is being a contrarian an optimal decision? What are the alternatives? Is being a contrarian an advantage? Founders of high growth companies, are making one big high risk high reward bet. If you’re looking for a big win you first have to find something that has high uncertainty.

For those who do not get the reference: In very active forums and news sites with comments such as ComputerBase (which reminds me, I have not visited that site for probably months now, and it was not that bad after all), it kind of used to be (and probably still is) a cliché that the first person who wrote a comment would not actually write something useful, just something like First!, as it was not that easy to do that, considering how q....
