What kind of doctor would write such an irresponsible letter? Oh... But the alternative is banning all information that anyone could possibly use to evaluate their own health. stopped reading there.

The thing about the NSA dragnet is that if the NSA wasn't doing it, then corporations would (are) doing it. You can't stop technology from moving forward. Someone is going to be sniffing your packets now until the end of time.

Seems like there's a lot of pointless and distracting comments on this story. Thanks for your contribution.

I love the thinly veiled threats from other startup hustlers in the comments. Yeah Rob, you might suffer from some difficulty for deflating our bubble a bit... these people are pathetic excuses for humans, maybe we can replace startup f

I guess the engineer is saying we should address coconut trees because of falling coconuts, but the physical and geological effects of fracking don't matter because they're below the ground. Considering the logical breadth and wis

It's really simple. Most people pay a lot more taxes because they don't have entire tax firms to leverage against their yearly tax return. Most people make a lot less money than politicians. Politicians often say that we need to

I think what "went wrong" can be summed up in a sentence. The player was never built to be a publishing platform or had any other monetization angle built into it. As soon as it started getting features that would support this, t

The nice thing about old, simple software is that the attack vectors are often known publicly and are easy to work around. In the instance of Winamp, older versions of 2.x have a buffer overflow exploit in the playlist parsing. So.. don&#

I'll just pretend I don't know about the dozens of times pensions were withdrawn by big corporations because they can. Just Google "pensions gone" or similar queries, if you're really that clueless.

It was a pretty easy problem, parsing logs for performance statistics. But moving the data is the easy part and that's why I was incredulous of the OP's statement. I'm starting to wonder if this is really "Hacker News&q
