sbose78··on $250k of DigitalOcean credits for YC startups
If they are already a YC Startup, they are probably the ones who least need a $250k DO Credits.
sbose78··on VMware Confirms Layoffs as It Prepares for Dell Acquisition
>> The funny thing is, virtualization is dying.

I disagree, the amount of dependency we have on virtualization at my current organization ( which has been a leader in On premises software systems ) is huge. And we are still generating the majority of revenue from there.

sbose78··on MIT's free online classes can now lead to MicroMaster's degree
>> danger is devaluing the MIT brand

If more people have access to quality education, and they are eventually given a degree based on how they perform in the course, we should not be bothered about brand value. Educational institutions should cater to as many students as possible without compromising on quality.

sbose78··on I run a service that uses real people to review resumes, not robots
It would be important to know your team. I see it's just a team of 2, which clearly won't scale given the 'demand' that's present for the work you are into.

Do you have a team? In that case, please put up their bios on the page as well for credibility's sake. This is different than a usual software company. :)

sbose78··on SQLite timeline items related to "json"
I like it but I am just a bit skeptical about why there is an investment being done in building this.

Aren't they already too late to the party? I mean, there would have been tonnes of libraries which would do this given how popular SQLite is. Shouldn't they have left it to those libraries and stuck to investing on the core database thingy ( too vague but I hope you get what I mean ).

sbose78··on Touch Pianist – Tap in Rhythm and Perform Your Favourite Music
This is educational from the perspective that it really teaches you 'rhythm'. This is beautiful piece of web app :)
sbose78··on Microsoft .NET CoreCLR is now running on FreeBSD 10.1 (amd64)
Could someone please explain how different this is from using Mono on Linux ? I mean internally that too would be running CoreCLR on the Unix-based system. Then what different did these guys accomplish?
sbose78··on Last Week Tonight with John Oliver: Government Surveillance [ft. Edward Snowden]
I think John Oliver's producers are heroic.
sbose78··on Coursify: A Free Open-Source Online Course Platform
Looks great, could you have a list of features you offer? :)
sbose78··on SpaceX is hiring a Farmer in Texas
I've been reading this again and again for the exact same thing.
sbose78··on The Gondola web framework
Wanted to check this - please put up a "Getting Started" documentation. Good job btw :)
sbose78··on “Please let me know if I should stop developing apps for Google Products”
https://code.google.com/p/google-apps-script-issues/issues/d...

This issue almost took more than a year to get fixed - I had to drop a project midway and start with other technologies from the scratch to build the same thing.

The developer experience could have been better.
