Just because you don't like the argument doesn't mean it's "tired." It's absolutely true. I block every ad, I will continue to do so, and should content go behind a paywall, I will simply not view it. If there

I know, right? I've never in my entire life intentionally clicked on an ad, much less made a purchase decision based on one.

Back in the old days, (early 1990's) when I was starting out on the internet, there was very little advertising. What advertising there was, was relatively unobtrusive. People were putting up content for personal reasons, passion or de

I agree with you. I refuse to view any ads whatsoever. There isn't a single website on the internet that I can't do without. As long as I can control what I view on my own device, I will. I have no problem with a business model d

Times are changing, again. I block any and every ad.

My grandfather works for one of the studios. He's cleaning up and digitizing films that have never been released other than in theaters. They're slowly releasing these old films one at a time, I'm not sure where you can buy t

It is a non-existent problem. If you are offended, you are completely free to ignore the person that offends you.

People are walking around with a hair trigger, just waiting for a reason to be offended. As a society we've tolerated these agitators too long.

This is the age of the internet. We have no need for these publishing middlemen. Knowledge like this should be shared freely for the public good.

I love your point. Cut right through the bull .

I've read this before. I wish I could work there, but I'm sure my resume and skills are not good enough.

Wow, this blows my mind, but it doesn't surprise me. I encountered similar frustrations while doing an excellent job in the Marine Corps. I've come to believe that virtually any bureaucratic institution will be weighted this way.

Your argument sounds like a bunch of pretty arrogant generalizations to me.

This is the best story I've seen on HN in a long time. I wish I could upvote again. I'm also totally onboard with a new, anarchistic alternative to the internet. I think about this idea all the time, but I don't have anywhere

I can't believe anyone takes vox.com seriously.

I like using Materialze or Bootstrap, depending on what the client needs. Lately I've been going very minimal and going without frameworks. My favorite tool right now is harpjs.

There is no right to not be "triggered". There is a right to free speech. The expansion of the victim mentality in the last few years blows my mind. Maybe I'm just getting older? I don't fit in with this society anymore.

I hear what you're saying. By worth, I didn't mean value - but I wasn't clear. I think art has much value, but as a commodity in the marketplace, holds very little worth. I agree that making quality art in one's spare ti

Invariably unpleasant, for me anyway.

I think pro or anti-oop sentiments as doctrine are both harmful. There are times where implementing OOP simply to do it could be make your code more complex. I think Casey's attitude may be pushback against the promulgation of poor OOP

I have lucid dreams occasionally. I have never attempted to control the process or force it to happen, it just happens. Oddly, I usually realize that I am dreaming when I attempt to control an aspect of my dream, and I just can't visua

I think the reality is that content is just not worth anything anymore. There is SO MUCH content out there. The internet has democratized content creation. Now that anyone can publish content, record an album, what have you, the value of co

I haven't read the article yet, but I stopped using Facebook a couple of years ago and it was the best decision.

It reminds me of some of the names they have on their Jeepneys. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jeepney When I was there, I saw Jeepneys called "Disneyland" and "McDonald's", etc. Pretty random.
