Personally I think that's assuming too much. We know so little about what life is like even if sentience has evolved on other planets that pretty much everything is pure speculation. Also, slightly contradictarily, natural selection/evolu

I've experienced erasures of memory related to using the bathroom. "Did I flush?" I had. It's not like I wasn't conscious, just that my brain doesn't give a shit. I'm sure he's talking about a similar thing.

If anyone wants to read a book on behavioral change, try "Switch" by Chip Heath and Dan Heath. It's sooooo goooood .

Why is it bad design? Have you ever expected it to do something, and it didn't?

Jeez, they really tore into the poor guy. I think it was an admirable effort at least. He already feels like shit, and they're just tearing him new ones.

You seem to have a general mistrust of others. I've found life is a little better if you don't assume everyone's out to get you from the get-go.

Sooo, how'd the relationship turn out?

That (saxing the sax) sounds awesome. Do you have any stories?

There are a number of points I could address, but I'll just say that any diet that leads to weight loss while also keeping you feeling satisfied is going to be way more effective than something that requires you to control your appetite.

Sounds like someone needs to tell the Dyslexic Association of America about Readability (or maybe a dyslexic programmer should tweak it first). http://lab.arc90.com/experiments/readability/

But it's not a when question. It's a what question. And if you don't know, why would you code for all the possible possibilities?

I can understand your point of view, but I think OP is saying that it will be interpreted differently, regardless of your intent. People's prior experiences put words in your mouth.

I don't know if right here is the best place to ask, but is anyone else confused about why "Pushing Daisies" could be critically acclaimed? After watching what I could stand of the first 2 episodes, the premise is awesome, the narration is

I think this could add a lot for immersion, but there are a lot of problems with the scent medium. It's your body detecting particles, not waves. Particles linger, so it's not like the smell's going to go away. Say you're in a burning vil

Some things just don't have an algorithm. You have to figure out each case by itself.

DRTFA, but does he realize the sheer amount of grammatical mistakes on that sign?

The more you focus on decoding something, the more neurons are activated, so more connections are made. But are these connections superficial, or are they actually meaningful? They should have asked critical thinking questions rather than e

Cool algorithm. Does it produce as effective an MIS?

Think a bit harder - don't you know at least one pizza chain with no chairs? Perhaps one that excels at delivering value?

Hold on - isn't HN the same crowd that says "Don't ask permission, ask forgiveness"? Though it was against the doctor's wishes, I don't think what Tim did was out of line (assuming it's the truth). If it were libel, he'd be seeing a lawsuit

Pretty damn funny, but don't forget how Ferriss got to where he is in the first place: making a lot of money in a business. (Just to make sure, you're saying he doesn't have a lot of experience with tech startups, right?)

I agree, to a point. That kind of thinking definitely has a place, and it works wonders for productivity I'm sure. You're talking about making it clear what you need to do tomorrow, making a plan so you always know what to do next. This art

And just because you're working doesn't mean you're working on the right things, or the things that will have the most effect, or working towards the right goals. Which is what this post is all about.

Thanks for screwing up my HN. Can't I read someone's thoughts without someone feeling cranky and sleep-deprived all over it? Now my high expectations from HN haven't been met. Thanks a lot.
