I've long had the belief that the very act of audio-recording, all the way back to Edison's wax-cylinders, would eventually be the end of making significant money for music makers. That and the fact that there is only 24-hours in

Oh, I love this stuff! I'm surprised it isn't housed at archive.org, however. Seems totally up Jason Scott's alley.

Hey, the FONT tag and TABLE-based layout was good enough for his site, it should be good enough for you! :)

To anyone that wants to read this book (and you should), be prepared to frequently hold one hand under your jaw - to prevent it from hitting the floor when it falls. And if cold-war nuclear lore is your thing, check out the photo gallery at

"...Over the weekend they turned pizza, energy drinks, and APIs into 123 projects..." The work that comes out of such hackathons are impressive. However, I can't help but think they work against us as we try to steer software

Monument Valley reminds me a lot of Fez (not a bad thing) so I for one HAVE seen something like MV before. That being said, MV, while being - let's say "tight" and not say "short" - IS a very stylish puzzle game exp

I don't quite think this belongs on HN. However, I also think it's just a matter of time before some open source project is named "Geep".

Socialized flamewars. It's sorta awesome, in an oil tanker alight in flames coming to port sort-of-way.

Pop quiz - Who was the first band to have a web site on the WWW?

Assuming Google's SPDY protocol catches on wide-scale (which is likely, I believe), then SSL will be pervasive; SSL is a requirement of SPDY. At that point, most web traffic will be encrypted.

Funny. I thought that happened in 1981 - thirty years ago: http://oldcomputers.net/zx81.html Ok, ok, the Raspberry Pi could kick a room full of ZX81's around the block - it IS an impressive little board. My point is that the Raspberry Pi

No. Actually, I didn't watch it to the end. Too embarrassing to watch. I guess some of us are from the Sgt. Joe Friday school of thought when it comes to Kickstarter presentation videos, "Just the facts, ma'am."

This is great for an individual user but what about a whole department/company of Macs? Good karma to anyone that knows some good Samba config-fu to prohibit/direct-to-null the creation of .DS_Store files on a SMB share.

...This doesn't quite qualify as an Arduino project. Linus Akesson's "EuroDemo" efforts are NOT Arduino based - they are actually less than an Arduino electronically but still AVR based. This is an old link but I think Linus's efforts sti

The follow up book, "More BASIC Computer Games" is also there: http://www.atariarchives.org/morebasicgames/ You can show your age by pointing out that BASIC is an acronym and should be all-caps... :\

Zip drive? Luxury. Oh what I had to go through to pull a few QuarkXpress documents off of a SyQuest drive for my brother! "SCUD: The Whole Shebang" wouldn't have been complete without it! Had to dig up an old Performa-era Mac that had t

I was there last fall and agree, it's pretty fantastic. The only unrealistic thing about these pics is that they were staged during a down time - the Moscow Metro (yes, it's proper to call it the "Metro") is used by a lot of people! It's

Programming "to the metal" is a VERY different experience and one that can be satisfying much in the same way that baking your own bread (flour, water, yeast..) can be. Now the Gameduino abstracts a lot so maybe it's bad comparison; one is

Anon's actions are an attempt at inciting a stand alone complex? Yeah, I can see that.
