So, fun observation. The site estimates the housing cost for year to be ~$18k. LOL. It's kinda difficult to get a room (in a shared apartment) in an accessible part of SF at that rate today. I guess it's worse than mediocre.

Anirudh and team: Excellent product release. Thanks for doing such important work for marginalized people! We need more tech like this and less like that.

Hey that's not cool. How can you just disqualify a company that way just because they are Chinese? Alibaba is an excellent company with a lot of integrity.

The entire article's argument of breach of privacy hinges on the claim that "the government of India is selling access to this database to private companies to use and combine with other datasets as they wish". Is there any s

I went to one of these schools. I disagree with fellow HNers who say that the students are great engineering minds or have the right motivations from before hand. These institutions do a damn good job at making you very very strong on your

I still still still, for the life of me, don't understand why a large number of people have labelled Hillary "corrupt". Someone please explain? (am I naive to believe that having a private email server wasn't much of an

What's with the name Gita? You know it is the name of the holy book of Hindus, right? Then again, there is the infamous tech book series "Bible".

Agreed! I know it can be so so overwhelming, but just hang in there. We have had these problems with the web from the very early days of JavaScript, but we have only reached an inflection point in the past 5-ish years where we have solved t

Keaton, you make it incredibly clear that you have no understanding about how education works. It's really sad that you criticize YC and our excellent educator community. Your neglect and lack of respect for teachers and traditional sc

Feeling so privileged right now; what a great time to be alive and see such visionary leadership. Thank you Mark, Priscilla, Bill, and the thousands of people whose names I don't know who work tirelessly on these problems.

Got it. I saw that a newer comment was approved so I assumed mine was rejected. Apologies for that! I think the newer comment that was approved was probably just from an account that wasn't moderated.

So I critiqued the Aldryn Cloud solution and Django CMS's approach on the Disqus comments on their blogpost and it was swiftly rejected. This product is far from the values of open source Wordpress is built on.

Hey Vivin! Great to see this. Also grew up in Oman (went to ISM). Good old days! Times when the only games you could get were from some shady stores in Ruwi or in CCC or Al-Harthy Complex. So so nice to see all the hacks you were up to be a

Oh I have no idea what that even means :( Honestly, I start remembering all the times I spent around very very poor people and people from my country who don't have much. I frequently watch documentaries on what is going on in Syria an
