Basically have fun playing around with it in the same way as with a real IMSAI8080... As an example look at this video on how to enter and run a small assembler program using the switches. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xYNAMKPBSFI

I bought an Imsai8080 replica from https://thehighnibble.com/imsai8080/ I had a really nice time building the kit, toggle switches and display leds look exactly like original ones. Internally is an emulation of the IMSAI 8080 based on the ESP32 microcontroller

I also started with a notebook, before getting a commodore vic-20. Pencil and Basic, you were the CPU.

I've been using this online training for long time already. I would say it's not only for beginners but also for intermediate levels too. It covers many different guitar styles. During this long time I've seen how the page positively evolved and I'm happy to see how one person (justin) which is doing a superb job in giving those lessons for free is getting more and more attention. This is in my opinion a good example of how perseverance, free content and love for what you do can at then end pay back with a very good reputation from users and I guess good money with the selling of same free online content but as DVDs,books, etc

Awesome. One issue found, a hotmail.es was suggesting a hotmail.fr domain

Thanks. The online game is at: http://www.tengaged.com

just those 2 lines of basic made thousands of developers

It's inversely proportional to the money received by a VC. That's why it's a must to have your startup as small as possible.

I believe programming will be some day a mandatory subject in schools. Not like everybody needs to be an expert but at least some basic knowledge of it.

Stop thinking about new ideas and start getting deeper in the first thing that comes to your mind. Iterate through it, don't develop yet. Be at least one/two weeks thinking only about it, Can it be extrapolated to something else?, How would you do it?, Improve it in your mind, iterate few times, find which niche could fit. Start implementing it... and iterate again, and again.

After a few weeks you will get a deep understanding on it... ideas will flow.

I enjoy coding my own ideas and not that much others ideas. Basically from 9 to 5 I just code, from 5 to 10 I enjoy (coding).

I think the idea is great and site looks very nice. Only problem I see is the name "printingfacebook.com" as it may cause some branding issues with facebook.

I agree some of the comments in FT are very interesting.

I'm not saying that productivity is going up, it's in fact going down, as the article says -3.1 variation GDP 2008-2009. But the ratio of unemployment/varGDP is very different to other countries because of the additional unemployment from construction industry, which is the suspicious indicator used by the author.

In any case I personally agree with some of the comments in the FT article saying that Spanish government may artificially modify some figures.

I live in Spain. From my understanding the ratio of Unemployment rate/GDP is very high because of the construction bubble collapse. That 9.7 increase are 80% because construction industry mainly. This bubble collapse affects much more to the increasing unemployment rate than to the GDP (which also does but less dramatically). That's is because we can't compare the ratios from Spain to other countries in Europe, as we have this additional problem.

> To twist a phrase from Glengarry Glen Ross: "ABL - Always Be Learnin'."

Bad memory forces you to always be learning, at least trying to learn a bit more than what it's forgotten.

I think that Techcrunch will enter the DeadPool once Mike Arrington leaves (2-3 years).

Fully agree. Documentation is incomplete and it really slow things much when trying to implement it seriously and not just in a demo page.

I had the same problem, and sometimes it's embarrassing to say you read a book but don't remember anything about it. I'm happy I'm not the only one.

I loved the one of the sentences in post "You are all what you read". I would also add "We read what we want to be".

(now starting to forget the post)

It's amazing. LOL when I saw the pigs jumping!

will Mike move out from Seattle now?

congrats to Mike!. Will he move out from Seattle now?

Given the length of the article I guess that it's not only the most engaged, but actually the only ones who read it. I don't believe that article can be read in less than 5-10 minutes.

you can talk and SMS... but what about 3G browsing?

Maybe you could have a list of entrepreneurs, each entrepreneur could have a different fee and you should be able to choose based on your interest. I would pay much more for a well known entrepreneur that is related to my area of business to have my site reviewed.

ordering a "Barbie Silicon valley" - now includes Mark as her boyfriend :) (I think you can pay it with Facebook credits...)

Windows already swapped my CPU...

Commodore vic-20! I still have it, 5Kb RAM teach you how to be efficient

Many times technical cofounders are used to basically "develop" the founder's idea. Anybody looking for a technical cofounder should give more than just ideas. Ideas are just 1% of the total work.

the best comment is the empty one ;)

As rendering will get much faster, I guess we can consider JS will much faster too, at least when using canvas with JS, which I believe it's the most important bottleneck right now.
