Yeah, it's an amazingly useful service.. Love it too.

Nice work on oneryng.. At least reveal the meaning of life though if you know it..

There's a lot of agile floating around, so that seems to be useful for a lot of people.

vim here with jquery too. working phenomenally well for me, though I understand there's no kind of js debugging built into vim. The matching braces highlight function is my debugging tool.

What is it?

Whow, how did this happen. Appreciate the 90 comments guys + girls.

This is amazing. I am in the process of deploying my webapp, and was considering slicehost due to the static ip's issue.

Then I took another look on the aws pages, and, hooray: elastic ip's were introduced yesterday!

Just give it a go, it'll never hurt to learn something new.

Coming from PHP, you'll probably see some benefits right away.

Create a great product. Focus a lot on how you can be better.

give jquery a try:

http://jquery.com

Most fun javascript library ever.

Nice for you, congrats, sounds like the perfect situation :)

Have a really good idea and start pitching it to hackers. If it's interesting enough there will be takers.

stable, affordable, good user interface. expose and spaces are time savers.

big no is battery time.

I don't think you're missing out on too much if you primarily code.

Using it, for two years, with vim. First two weeks were hard.

Fellow YCers, SERIOUSLY.

Take a look at this graph: http://www.readwriteweb.com/images/online-info-flow.jpg

And come up with a way to optimize that.

Now THAT'S a startup.

What do you think?

I've found python much easier to deploy.

Rails is just a pain.

Python has a longer history on the web. Give cherrypy a try, which, although not as powerful as Rails, is lightning fast.

what does it do?

What's your startup?

I've always loved seaside.

Was kind of hard to get into though last time I looked, probably better now.

Any experiences?

What's a good, current Prolog implementation?

Yes, that's true. But I still have a requirement for a schemaless db, so sql doesn't cut it.

No, I'm on a mac, don't have access to IE.

It's definitely ok to release an alpha that only works in a certain browser, but make sure you tell people, and be prepared to cut some people off.

Smart idea.

How would you determine that though?

I have my doubts that approaching this by finding some kind of formula on people-attributes will work.

I believe it is best for me to say who I work well with.

What is needed is a collective intelligence augmentation tool. Which the internet basically is, but how can it be improved? I.e. what we really need is more, and more relevant information at my fingertips.

Appreciated, definitely clean code to express nodes and relationships.

Is there a modern implementation that's well supported by a community?

mooneater, do you have any suggestions on how to actually store and persist such a data structure in RAM?

Would I use something like a wsgi webserver, that runs as a daemon, and occasionally dumps the data structure to disk?

Or is something like memcached better?

My preferred way of storing into RAM would be of course only storing changes, instead of storing the whole tree into RAM on every write.

Thank you very much. Can you give me your email? I'm @gmail with the same YC username I use.

Brilliant, thanks. Yes, RAM is a good option for me.

I figure 2 GB will last me 4 months. Then I can go up to 4, 8, 16, ...

Pretty good.

Your advice is deeply appreciated, thank you everyone who has posted so far.

Give us some more info :) Sounds interesting

For sure in some cases - yet I don't see any metadata and query capabilities. Are there?

that's really good insight, thank you.
