Obviously they weighed that indicator very lightly or else ignored it altogether. As for me, I think that in a free (enough) market the entrepreneurial activity indicator would be the most accurate of all. I think this article was to help state and civic governments feel good about themselves. Even the indicators like Venture Funding available and IT force don't mean much in the context of startups, in my opinion. Not if the IT force are all government workers (like in Virginia) or the VC firm has a small portfolio of enormous brick-and-mortar businesses (dunno if that's true in one of those).<p>Possibly insightful initial data.

If you are interested, I can provide you with a demo link via email. However, I would need to know that you are not a competitor and would handle the material with integrity.

1,576 | null | comment | omarish | 1,172,693,074 | I think the algorithm needs some work. It could make sense mathematically, but it doesn't model things correctly.<p>Take Virginia, for example:<p>"Ranked No. 1 in the "Fastest-Growing Firms" indicator" and "Ranked No. 2 in the "High-Tech Jobs" indicator,"<p>and then<p>"Ranked No. 47 in the "Entrepreneurial Activity" indicator"<p>We have a lot of fast-growing firms, a lot of high tech jobs, but very few people are running startups here.<p>But if you think about it, what is it that makes a startup hub? A university campus? A high tech sector? PG says a lot about this, I think the conclusion is that they exist where you make them exist. | null | 1,551 | null | null | null | null | null | null | null |

1,578 | null | comment | papersmith | 1,172,693,241 | One complaint I have with Flex apps is that even with a minor increase in GUI complexity, it begins to lag like crazy. This is especially true with tables; scrolling through them is a pain. Btw, I experience this on a p4 3ghz 1gb ram running Flash 9 in both Linux and Windows. In comparison, most of the Ajax apps I use feel fairly smooth, but I guess from a developer's point of view, it's a compromise in maintainability. | null | 1,548 | null | [

1,582 | null | comment | gms | 1,172,694,111 | Well actually Python does have an eval() that can be called on expressions in the form of strings. The problem is that any potential macro anything would be nowhere near as seamless as it in Lisp, since the parse tree isn't right there for everything. But with enough effort (and closing your eyes to avoid how horrible it would look), you could maybe make something. | null | 1,478 | null | [

1,584 | null | comment | SwellJoe | 1,172,695,122 | "even higher", as though 61,000 page views in a day is high. That's an average of less than one page per second. 61000/24/60/60=.706<p>I've built embedded devices that served Perl CGI pages from an all-Perl web server far faster than that (while also doing the work it was designed to do...the Perl CGI was just the administrative UI).<p>I'm really quite hopeful that this isn't a good example of Rails scalability (because I've been playing with Rails of late with the intent to write my next project in it). I don't mind losing some performance and efficiency to improve coder efficiency, but there is a page load time at which your customers will get bored and leave...I don't want to find out what the load time is. | null | 1,467 | null | null | null | null | null | null | null |
1,581 | null | comment | brett | 1,172,694,023 | Fair enough.
FYI - people generally run a bunch of mongrel instances on one machine and use apache to proxy and load balance requests to the mongrel instances. So he's talking about one machine. | null | 1,499 | null | null | null | null | null | null | null |

1,585 | null | comment | jrbedard | 1,172,695,284 | Yes I agree, scrolling through TileList in Flex is really slow and chunky too. Although, there are some workarounds you can code to make the interaction with them feel smoother. Ya, for developers, maintaining Flex apps is really easy because everything visual is a mxml component and can be abstracted from the rest of the code. It's easier to maintain and debug, at least compared to plain actionscript or javascript. | null | 1,578 | null | null | null | null | null | null | null |

1,593 | null | comment | dpapathanasiou | 1,172,698,937 | I wish I'd recorded the talk: the whole Sugar environment is done completely differently from the OS conventions we're used to now.<p>Paraphrasing (and I may misquote him slightly), he said that using Sugar doesn't involving starting up an application but rather with "what do I want to do", and everything is built around that.<p>It's a powerful idea, one that has potential to transcend this project into how we interact with future operating systems.<p>Also, the mesh networking idea (every laptop is a router, that can forward packets even in suspend mode) has potential in how wireless networks of the future will work.

1,616 | null | comment | pg | 1,172,707,770 | VCs certainly live in a very chummy world, but their valuations are not stingy. In fact they're artificially high, because the structure of VC funds pushes them to make excessively large investments, and that in turn means valuations have to be high or the founders aren't left with enough stock to keep them interested. | null | 1,496 | null | [
