Thanks for the list. All new territory except Cloud Atlas which I enjoyed immensely.

It wasn't me! Personally loved the series! I'm always on the lookout for more "proper" sci-fi, so please share! I've been binge reading hard sci-fi this year and can't get enough. And yeah, HN is a tough crowd.

Great read. Despite the damage they caused, there is a part of me that wishes (hopes) that their crimes are overlooked and instead put to use as white hat operatives in an elite super-secret government black program fighting terrorism and s

Dark Forest Deterence. I'd be interested to find out what % of HR readers HAVEN'T read this trilogy considering how much it comes up in conversation on these forums. I'm willing to bet it is a VERY high % compared to the aver

I never used to do this when I was young, but now that I'm getting older a sense of haste has crept into my life. I speed listen to podcasts, YouTube (non-music videos) and educational videos (such as technology learning modules on Egg

The active word is "should". Society didn't forgive him. He worked his butt off, impressed the right people, and is the one-in-a-million success story of life after a felony. Society as a whole hasn't changed. He changed

HN is a great funnel that sieves important content to the forefront. It is MY way of staying abreast of what is new and important in the world.

A number of years ago I did a year without the Internet (except at work, but only for work purposes). You would be amazed how much I got done without the distraction. To be more specific, I designed over 12 table top games, wrote numerous s

For clarification, she uses the smart phone, not I. I might touch her phone to solve some technical issue, but that is about it. And it's not like I'm a Luddite. I still consume my news and watch some HBO Now on my laptop, but I s

Yes, I text (albeit rarely). I'm one of those people who would prefer to hang out with my friend rather than spend time writing walls of text or firing texts back-and-forth ad nauseum. I'm very much a minimalist at heart and this

I am probably one of the few techies in the world that does not own/use a smartphone. Since 2011 I have used a cheap Verizon flip phone for exactly this reason; I want more control over my life. NOTHING is that important that I need to

And this comment is the reason why Trump was elected president; that we believe everything we hear without doing our own due diligence.

Oh yeah, watching his Excel You Tube video puts me in awe! Can't tell you how many people I've recommended that video to!

Absolutely, I think many people would be surprised about the quantity of highly-educated, high-experienced, highly-talented felons there are in our society that are exactly just that, "Diamonds in the rough."

by Unbeliever69 9y ago
Bravo. The REAL problem, however, is the quality of jobs available to felons. If this board is filled with nothing more than labor and call-center jobs then, you've only solved part of the problem. The true goal is to connect felons wi

Aye, great documentary! Three-time winner Jared Campbell is an engineer here in Salt Lake City, UT. I wouldn't be surprised if he frequents HN.

I am going to go out on a limb here and say it has nothing to do with the code school business model but instead by the for-profit colleges that bought both the Iron Yard and Dev School (which shut down recently). It is my belief that for-p

I highly recommend teachyourselfcs.com. It is by far the best self-taught cs resource online!

For-profit education companies, looking to get a piece of the action, have swept in and bought numerous bootcamps. This very thing happened to Dev Mountain a few years back. If you look at the reviews prior and after this acquisition, there

Let's not forget about Blockstack https://blockstack.org . I'm very excited to develop on this platform and it represents the direction the Internet needs to go in order to ensure its longevity. Check out their YouTube

I have a friend that is a Phd candidate at the University of Utah. He teaches physics/math/cosmology at the state prison from time to time. He says that inmates are far-and-away the best audiences he has ever taught to! They are a
