Rats, top comments will be impossible to beat. I can probably piggy-back off a top comment, though, those comment threads aren't long yet...

Did you read my comment? Several of them include the #NotBuyingIt hashtag, a hashtag specifically related to sexism against women. I really hesitated to respond to you again, at this point it seems you are doing nothing more than post hoc r

Anyone who is informed is making that assumption, hopefully that now includes you. http://www.missrepresentation.org/not-buying-it/ People worldwide are using hashtag #NotBuyingIt to call-out sexism in the media. Let the media know: sexi

The irony here, is that the outrage over these generated t-shirts is increasing their visibility and promoting something that no one had ever heard of or cared about before. The sadness here is that disparaging boys is much more acceptable,

When I was younger I took a reading test and scored just over 1,000 words per minute with 100% retention. I remember reading an article that there were 3 types of readers. Readers who sub-vocalize the words Readers who "hear" the words Read

I guess this article is good advice for the people who have frequent opportunities to develop meaningful romantic relationships and decide to pass on them. Unfortunately, I'm not one of those people.

I find this article a little condescending and trite, most of the things you "need to learn" are skills you develop from interacting with people in general, not just in personal romantic relationships.

I've pursued many women in my life, and failed. I'm not especially tall, good looking, or rich, but I am smart, somewhat charismatic, and have a solid character. Everything I've done in my adult life has been motivated by my desire to be at

Well, here's an actual quote: http://en.wikiquote.org/wiki/William_Gibson "On the most basic level, computers in my books are simply a metaphor for human memory: I'm interested in the hows and whys of memory, the ways it defines who and

William Gibson is a strange person. I remember him making a comment at a convention once where he said he was shocked at what computers looked like on the inside, he expected them to be weird crystalline contraptions.

I agree, can you really do sexy without sexism? Is using sex inherently bad?

Reading this post, I probably had the typical 'guy' reaction, which was negative towards the post. Why? Because I've been in situations like the ones described, and I wasn't offended and I feel like I'm being attacked for being in these sit

I've worked with a lot of programmers. Some of them have character flaws that make them unpleasant to work with. These character flaws do not affect their ability to "get the job done", but I'd rather not work with them and take steps to av

I left my job a year ago, and started doing remote work for a small company. Since then, I've worked between 15 to 25 hours a week. As a result: - I'm more rested and stress free - I get a lot more exercise and I eat healthier - I'm much m

I work remotely as a programmer / designer, it's the best job I've had, and I'm far more productive than I've ever been, with a lost less time spent. I'm sure collaborating in person is necessary for some people, but if you're working with

Two bits of advice I've found helpful. 1) Don't write the whole book before you write it, just focus on small steps, pick up a pen, find some paper, etc. 2) Practice, push yourself, like lifting weights, or anything else, you'll get better

Really glad to see this, these costs to pay patent trolls would have been passed along to the consumer in some way. Good job, Newegg!

"The lower shoe is almost perpendicular to the camera. It measures 149-151px from heel to toe. (I measured 149.91 pixels and added slop for inexact measurements.)" Interesting article, but could have benefited from some basic trigonometry

Wow, CNN, the opposite of Hacker News. What an ignorant comment: The "warhead" names appeared as links, most leading to 404 error messages of pages not found, but some leading to pages of raw programming code.

For me, credit cards are a tool that gives me a 1% discount on purchases, and protects me from fraud. I've made over $1,000 in cash back rewards and was refunded $250 in charges from 2 different purchases that turned out to be fraudulent. I

Yeah it seems strange to me too, it's possible the server I was downloading from had incomplete files... it seems like Kennedy.Warhead1, Roberts.Warhead1, and Sotomayor.Warhead1 should be 150 MB... those are the file sizes reported by the s

In terms of effectiveness, compared to other Anonymous campaigns, I feel pretty safe in saying the visibility of this campaign is going to be very high.

Mostly because the icon was on the same screen, and I'm already logged in on my home system, and I didn't want to type my email / password in again. Maybe I should do that in the future.
