If you enjoyed responding (like I am doing now), then that's that. You got the worth of the time you spent. Of course, if one were _expecting_ more than that (e.g. others not being a jerk or even being nice), then its fulfillment is an

Brilliant! Magnanimous. I am a Vishy fan, but this match was really one-sided when Vishy faltered at critical moments. Does it mean age matters? Will Vishy rebound? I hope so, but perhaps it's the sad reality that I acknowledge -- bett

I think this is the easiest you can/should do that helps keep random checks and break-in attempts away.

Coincidentally, I had run into it recently. I wanted to ask pg the following: - Around 12:30 you say that there is a combination of 3 things that drives hackers: 1) the desire to get rich (so they could be "free") 2) the desire to

Yeah. Leaving behind an 8-year old son makes me really sad indeed.

This is definitely very interesting. In the long run however, I think self-control/willpower works in unison with cognitive abilities, as another famous experiment -- the Marshmallow experiment, tends to conclude.

I am still trying to understand Alex's post well, but it reminds me of a Warren Buffett quote: "Bad things are not obvious when times are good".

When I search, I get: sort by: relevance | date | points and then separately "ascending | descending" -- isn't it better if the relevance | date | points are made "toggles"?

Add a simple title attribute to the upvote up-arrow. That way mouse-hover tells you what clicking it would result in.

The first comment on the OP also asks this question. Looking for something definitive here.

Startups are hard because the founders/wannabe founders who perceive it that way far outnumber those who don't. In a way, it's similar to getting better (expert) at anything. It is hard for 80% of people does not mean it is hard for a given

Yes. Handy for debugging. There are some sharp edges, but by and large, it is useful.

No, 9 1/2. That 1/2 a thing is killing. Great article! When DVCS's would be compared, GitHub would be a great plus in Git's favor.

What we need (to really prove the point of article) is a number of successful software startups where average age is say 38. How many of us (I am turning 40 soon) dare cross the Paul Graham Limit (23-38) on higher side? Looking at the cre
