WE have written lot of code in Play 1.2.X all of a sudden they migrated to Play2.0 without any backward compatibility.This is sad.

WIth Play2.0 they introduced Scala Many folks has the opinion that Scala is complex, and i also lost trust in play because of no backward compatibility and i stuck up with huge code base which is not backward compatible

now iam looking build my other new applications on frameworks like Ruby on Rails , django leaving play.


I too have wrist pain some time back.

To my understanding this kind of pain will come due to stiffness in the muscles in hands,shoulders,neck.This stiffness radiates the pain to wrist.After some months of pain i visited a famous doctor (http://www.deepaksharan.com/ (india)) he asked to take 6-7 session of Myotherapy (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Myotherapy) and also suggested few exercises , good posture which has removed the pain from my wrist and hands.

If you want i can send you scanned copy of those exercise posters.(rama.vadakattu at gmail dot com)

I feel you should also consult a professional and get rid of that pain by myotherapy ,regular exercises and good posture.

It is defintely curable (although they may be few exceptions).


>> Just include the sprite dimensional and positional info in an inline CSS stylesheet on the page and generate a sprite sheet as you would normally.

Which set of images do you generate sprite for? Take ebay search results page , for every search it displays a different set of images.How can we construct a static sprite a ahead of time? However we can generate a dynamic sprite.


Like is good +1 is bit geeky


Both are bad because it's hard to share something that is not good but might be important. Murder stats for where you live, for example.


How to validate the product which does not have price tag?


Offer variants of your product with different prices. The prices are the test points. See which one people would buy. Apple does it all the time and provide three products (16gb, 32gb,64gb). With three points you can interpolate a curve and locate the maxima. Note that the price difference of the products should not correspond to the production cost difference. It should be the test points.


Have a general price range in mind. Or just ask: what is this worth to you?

Thanks Rama, I've read all of Jason's books and thoroughly enjoy them. My day job is in a 'rapid deployment' environment where we push out projects pretty regularly. We're also doing this on my startup but it is less 'rapid' because of the limited amount of time we all have.


you have paying customers that is really great. you objective in reaching bloggers is to reach more customers.

Why not follow the other approach instead of waiting for their posts...............

one idea is

1.Make your product viral.[Focus more on creating a component which helps the user to refer this product to their friends at some benefit etc..] Dropbox is a great example free 250 MB storage if you refer a friend.
