Your impression of how real journalism works is a lot harder to believe. You don't think writers see and care about how many clicks or views their articles get? Everyone knows these metrics are _directly_ correlated with revenue. FB us

I have concerns about Facebook just like everyone else, but I'd also like to point out that the New York Times is not repeatedly publishing articles criticizing FB simply because of their superior moral stance. They are doing it becaus

This article is a clickbait smear at best. They didn't actually get to run any ads , because you need a valid SSN and Driver's license to do so. The only thing they demonstrated is their ability to break federal laws by impersona

I don't think it's clear that advertisers are bearing the whole cost, at least not directly. Google, Facebook, Twitter, Snap etc. all sell placements via auction, so the advertisers themselves are determining the price. Presumably

The EU's war on big companies with big data feels too much like the opposite of "focus on your users instead of your competitors". EU has been quick to throw around a lot of fines and new regulations. But I what I don't

Why aren't animation houses using GPUs for rendering? It seems like they could get another order of magnitude speedup with CUDA or OpenCL.

A biotech management recruiter commented: MA will pull away with the lead soon from Bay Area based on cost of living. I have senior management members tell me daily that they'll move anywhere BUT Bay Area. You'll pay $3.

That isn't anyone's assumption. These people are too underprivileged to know or care about your "walled gardens" and "ecosystems". It's supposed to be a good enough intermediate step to drastically improve

Please cite a source for your comment that "Zuckerberg has expressed that he wants to replace the internet with Facebook". I highly, highly doubt it.

Dismayed that middlebrow dismissals like this still reign supreme on HN, this seems like a cheap shot comment. Obviously you can express yourself however you wish on Facebook through comments, pictures, etc; they've actually broadened

According to wikipedia, adding mustard is a French culture thing, and not in the original. I'd say the Hellman's recipe isn't that horrible, compared to standard simple recipes. Really mayonnaise is just a stable emulsificati

Mozilla is currently testing Electrolysis (or "e10s") [1] - their project to run web content in a separate process - on nightly, and I've been using it for the past few weeks. It's getting pretty reasonably stable, so ho

According to [1]: "Last week I asked for benchmarks of the new JavascriptCore Fourth Tier LLVM JIT. Arewefastyet from Mozilla now includes such results. FTLJIT does particularly well on asm.js examples." You can see JSC performing

I'm curious about this quote on page 21: "Administrators really hate Python. Really. HATE." I hadn't heard anything like this before, what is the reasoning here?

xv6 is a pleasure to hack on and learn from! It's got everything you'd expect from a unix-like OS (multi-processor support, simple scheduler, unix-like FS, many of the standard syscalls, fork/exec based shell, etc). Linux and
