Re: [BangPypers] Pyramid and open-id
I don't know what you mean by automatic.. The thread local helps to have global variables per thread so that it preserves the changes made in one thread should not affect another global variable in another thread.. In Pylons, request & context (may be many other stuffs) are treated as a global variables, they can be accessed from anywhere just by importing them..

"The chances of anyone succeeding with an Open Source Project or Startup Company is inversely proportional to the square of the distance between San Fransisco and the location of this OpenSource/Startup Project". Okay, let's assume this to be true. Now we need to determine the causality. What are the possible reasons? Here are some: 1. A person in India will fail at trying to create a business around open source, but is more likely to succeed at precisely the same endeavour, if they move to the Valley. It is the environment that counts, not the person. 2. People outside the Valley are incapable of creating/running that kind of business, because they don't know how to do it right. Moving to the Valley might increase their chances, since they will have better access to people who can teach or inspire them. 3. People who are already in the Valley are inherently superior, and us little people in India are wasting our time trying to emulate them. These are three possible hypotheses.

Re: [BangPypers] The myth of free software
Hey, great argument, but I have some riders. Atleast, finally, I think we are on the same page. First of all, let us get one thing out of the way. Success in software/hardware, no matter where you are, entirely depends on on how passionate you are about it. We can't quantify a person's passion for some thing. Apple's success, is Steve Job's passion for whatever he was creating. Having got that out of the way, let us try to answer some of your questions.

People outside the valley are definitely capable of creating/running business, but they have a great disadvantage.

Apple's success, is Steve Job's passion for whatever he was creating. Fair enough. Having got that out of the way, let us try to answer some of your questions. They weren't really questions. You've outlined a correlation and now I am asking you to provide the causation. Right! The environment counts a lot. Not the person. If you are based in India, you are already starting to bat with 3 wickets down viz a viz San Francisco, (If I can humbly give a cricket anology). This is true no matter what sort of technology business you start. What is different about business models that are FOSS-driven? Wrong and Right!. People outside the valley are definitely capable of creating/running business, but they have a great disadvantage. Their competitors based in the valley, have a competitive edge/eco system,that the poor great guys outside the valley can't match. I agree. So what is the solution, other than moving to the Valley? Forget about your three possible hypothesis . I hope I have answered your questions above! I think you've misunderstood. I'm still not clear on the following: 1. We've established that tech startups are at a disadvantage when based outside SV. Why is this so? Specifically, what is different about FOSS-model startups? 2. Given that we are not all moving to California, what are our options? I assume you are recommending against a FOSS-model startup. What sort of business models do you recommend instead? Why? 3. At least one person on this thread has pointed out that his Indian company is making a profit while working on FOSS. I know of a few others. Do you not recommend that others attempt to follow their example? Why? -Taj. ___ BangPypers mailing list BangPypers@python.org http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/bangpypers
