I just wanted to say thanks for this book recommendation - "Mindfulness in Plain English". Learning and starting some basic meditation was one of my New Years Resolutions, but I didn't really know where to get started (even though I've been exposed to meditation before). I bought this book and it is a great practical guide.

This is pretty cool - Since they're running Python, can I use this for Ruby apps as well?

Exactly. No matter the cause of WHY diamonds seem to be valued so highly in societal worth, the fact is, well, they are.

You COULD not get your wife a diamond ring, you COULD not take her out for Valentine's day because it's a made-up holiday, you COULD not get her a Christmas present because you think it's a commercial holiday, etc. But... well good luck with that.

I know my one and only post was to ask if anyone out there was even using it.

And... no one replied.

Yup, that's correct - the discounts only apply in the US as of now, though hopefully we can expand internationally at some point.

Disappointed that an RFS is just a thinly disguised rant. I love HN, YC, and PG, but this tit-for-tat attempt at retaliation is childish and unworthy of the great minds that populate this forum.

Thank you for your input.

In terms of database normalization, doesn't that usually require redundancy (repeated columns / records)? We have that once over two columns, but otherwise there are no repeats - each entry is unique.

Pardon my ignorance, not much experience with database software as is clearly evident haha.

The one thing I didn't quite like when I heard PG speak at one of YCombinator's events in NYC was his insistence that you need to move to the Valley in order to launch a successful startup. Even at a seed-stage, there's great funds out there (TechStars Network among others) that happily invest in people all over the country.
