Slightly over two years - he goes to sleep around 8pm, my problem is that I tend to be very tired in the evening, too. Not sure I can blame it on him, though. I never managed to install good sleep habits. And I still waste time on Hacker Ne

Are status rules really so simple? Can it not also sometimes raise status to be accommodating, because it shows you can afford it? Of course it would all depend on the circumstances... I struggle with that on the sidewalk. I tend to move ou

Hm, really? Sure, I hope to get older, but I don't really make great plans for life in my 70ies. While life expectancy might be higher, I know people who died younger, and many who are 70 and not in the greatest shape.

What would free will even be? It sounds as if it was a meaningful concept, but perhaps it really isn't. What would be the entity making decisions? And how would it not follow any rules? That would mean it would be random?

Lists are discouraged on HN anyway, iirc. That list just didn't seem so impressive to me, so I suspected it was less made out of passion and more out of "let's see if we can get on HN for fun and profit". Anyway, as I said, if the crowd vot

And Canonical did it because they desperately needed the money, or just because they are plain evil?

Too much drama. I'm sure this will be sorted out.

I am already to enter arguments about religion online. Who knows what the fanatics are capable of. I guess it should be possible to communicate anonymously for similar reasons as voting should be done anonymously.

I was disappointed when I tried a fractal simulator on my Nexus 7 recently, and it couldn't zoom smoothly. Perhaps not the most common task in the world, but I think there is still demand for more computing power out there...

As a comment on the implementation, I think if the overlay blocks the web site, it shouldn't provide a link to causes at the same time. That makes it look insincere to me.

Just wondering, is there a network of telescope webcams? Hobby astronomers hooking up their telescopes to the internet, perhaps even with remote controlled mounts? Would save the costs of buying my own telescope, which wouldn't be much use

The question is, are their users children or adults? I have seen it a lot of times that children are being ripped off with mobile games. They don't really know how much they are spending.

I don't know, are tobacco manufacturers supposed to feel guilty for selling addictive cigarettes that kill? Is anything that makes money automatically good? After all, somebody is willing to pay for it? As for chocolate, we still have adver

"efficiently monetizing their userbase." Is this newspeech for ripping off their customers? I don't know their games, but I wouldn't be surprised if their clients are mostly teens maxing out their parents credit cards. Yeah sorry, I am a bi

Halfway through the article it says that there is a special Skype version for China which listens in (Tom Skype). Of course if your chat partner uses compromised software then what you say can be monitored. Where is the news in that? It see

Markets are a mechanism for allocating resources. Of course, there is neither the perfect market nor the perfect government. It seems to me that the potential for abuse is greater in the government, though. There is one vote every x years,

At the end of the lenders chain there are some rich people who want to get their money back and who have ties to the government. The whole thing is basically a scam to relieve the average population of their riches. At least that is my impr
