That is very cool, thank you. I just sat there and stared at it and had a Pale Blue Dot moment. This thing is so beautiful and here we are fighting about everything.

These were great growing up. The March Madness one made me laugh. It's good to know that these things still give that effect. Will almost certainly be lost to future generations.

I was thinking about this though not quite as severe. I would also love to see something like this in the end though. It sucks that as a mobile user I'm paying for analytics, unoptimized images, and poorly-written code when just simple

I like the way you present your work history at the bottom. If I was an interviewer it's got everything I need to know and nothing more.

I'd be curious to know your use cases. I once used it to rewrite a mainframe application.

When all the financial aggregators (Wealthfront, Personal Capital, Yodlee) fail me and I need to get a clear understanding of my finances, I always regress to something like this.

I've been messing around with a personal site hosted on S3. Does anybody here like any small UI frameworks that they would recommend?

Thanks for the writeup. This is a great trip down memory lane for me. The very first computer I put my paws on was one of these in kindergarten and ended up learning BASIC on it through 10th grade. I loved these machines so much and they ho

The ones I've seen are a right-place-right-time kind of things. One company I saw scanned and collected auto parts instructions to be searchable via a web UI. I'm not going to come up with that out of the blue. These people are

Because of the cargo culting, you see all sorts of Fortune 500 companies using this for fairly critical end-user tasks and failing at it. Air Canada did a redesign a while ago and I still can't book a flight on there. You look at the

I've always thought about at big companies that are "well managed" and all-in on the cloud, how much money is leaking away due to rushed implementations or bad architecture? And as customers of those companies we are paying f

Nearly everywhere I've worked the quarterly earnings report is the problem. Due dates mean that time has to be managed so any attempt to use a methodology seems to regress to some not fun way of developing software. In places I've

Cool idea! Really like UML and am sad that it doesn't get used as often as it should.

I appreciate this. I'm going to give it a whirl tomorrow based on what I've seen. These are actual good sources compared to what I normally use.

Of course you'd be on here. I know you mentioned this was a tool for primarily store owners but a lot of my friends and I use these to scan our old collections.

This is one of the saddest yet truest things I've read here on HN. Really hits home.

Thank you for sharing. I have many friends and family who work in the medical field. I will see if I can get these printed for them.

I was in the same situation as OP. I got "lucky" in getting a job in operations analysis instead of software development due to my poor GPA. A lot of my friends had their much higher offers delayed or rescinded while I kept my not

This is the first time I've heard of Increment. Is there a way to financially support them without having dead trees sent to me? Really impressed by the quality and thought that's gone into these articles.
