Stuff I came across during the last week in October

Chris Bailey found a place in Eugene, Oregon named Taco Time and even thought to tag it textdrive.

Hmm … not very redundant my friends. One of Ian Foster’s requirements to call something a “grid” is a non-trivial QoS.

Nice to see a rule I learned in grad school codified in a book. Book Review: The No Asshole Rule by Robert Sutton

While chatting with Gruber, I learned about the Autocompletion Tip.

Feld discusses the transition of Small to Medium to Big but I don’t see where Small, Medium or Big is defined. It would be nice to see his definition because the SBA a “small” business as “one that is independently owned and operated and which is not dominant in its field of operation. In services this is generally less then $6.5 million in revenue.

Are Entrepreneurs Born or Made? I think they’re both.

An article like The Persistence of (Bad) Online Data always makes me think of Terrell’s ClaimID (I happen to also use claimid)

Good little study on page load times.

Search Startups Are Dead, Long Live Search Startups has a very gratifying second to last paragraph. Because I actually think of us as an emerging platform company. By the way, don’t ever “pitch” a “platform”.

A bit behind but Automattic released a major update to multi-user wordpress which is the software that powers wordpress.com.

Larry Ellison is such a capitalist it makes me tingle.

Yes I happen to know a provider where you could sign up for that just drop it in your Bingo disk.

Googles market valuation greater than IBM’s.

Check out the erlang-based web framework Erlyweb but if the link doesn’t work then it’s likely he realized that he left an “e” out of frameworks.

Fraser is saying Farewell S3, hello Bingo..

Charles River is doing supposedly simple $250000 seed investing.

Some guys at Amazon open sourced Carbonado. I love abstraction layers.

There’s a django book coming.

Reddit and Jotspot were both bought and it’s soooo all over the place, I’m not even going to link.

It’s nice to finally see things up on people’s sites with affiliate links.

There’s stuff going on about who is disclosing stuff or not. (like here and here) I think there’s going to be something in the “disclosing” space soon.

I went to the Vox launch party. Vox is neat, I have one but I doubt I’ll be posting there along with my parents. I guess I’m not far enough down the Lifecycle. Yet.

Ev bought his own company back. That’s ah … well … ummm … cool I guess.

Om talks about Parakey. Very interesting.

Snort fart.

That’s right youngins do it while you’re young and dumb. Lord knows it’s smarter than grad school (maybe) and Paul Graham is sort of correct in that it’s tough once you’re past 40.

    If I were to sign-up today for a new TextDrive shared hosting account, would I be on a Solaris or FreeBSD box?

    I ask because I am extremely excited with what you guys are doing with Solaris and am hoping that this is migrating over to your TextDrive service as well.

    Jacob, right now you’d still be on FreeBSD for shared hosting (it’s the last one left to move and also happens to be the most stuff) but that’s changing as we speak.

    Jason, that’s very exciting news! Any word on when we might expect to see shared hosting on Solaris?

    @Jacob, we’re cranking through it right now and I think in the final stretches, so it shouldn’t be much longer.

    Part of the “problem” is that our shared hosting environment has roughly a 1000 pieces of third party software and we need to make sure each and every one of them works.

    On the other hand, the rules of the given program can be viewed as propositional formulas if we identify the comma with conjunction the symbol not with negation and agree to treat as the implication written backwards. ,
