Maybe I'm an exception then, because I can't relate at all to this. I've got enough interesting thoughts inside my head that takes up most of my concentration, so I would not have time to care about what others do and don&#x2

This is like the strangest blog post I've ever read. He concludes that the best thing is to unfollow people you don't like, and also that you should focus on positivism. Yet apparently something is bugging him enough to write thi

I think todays programmers is doing everything back ways. First they think about what language they want to use, then what libraries do they need, and then finally on what platform will it run and how will it be deployed. In the old days ev

Could be a new kind of meta-ddos. Announce a site has been hacked on Reddit/HN, and the news about the hack becomes the hack. :D

And how about all "forgot your password" forms that might be exploited on other services. An other service you not been using for long sends you a "long time no see" promotion and your old account is in someone else&#x27

That was my whole point...all these NLP, coloring personalities and all other bullshit HR and management people are into is only due to their lack of ability to read and sense people. If they don't come up with all this bullshit, they&

Didn't read. But why does all this "Management" experts seems to love awful stock-photos? And why are these Management/HR people always obsessed to come up with rules and guides, as if they ironically are to incompetent

The best kind of friends are those that right out calls me idiot when they see I'm doing something idiotic. It's liberating, because we both know that the harsh tone is not due to my whole being being defined as a idiot, but that

I actually think all this ambivalence is Ubuntus bigest problem. Now it has become apparent that all along they wanted to go down the path of only using the kernel, and then build a whole new software-stack on top of it, just like Android.

I think it's interesting that in this time of fancy collaborative tools like github, the trend no longer seems to be collaboration but to reinvent everything as a "one man show". And it becomes apparent with new technologies

Okay, this is the end for me on Hacker News. The comments here clearly shows that this place is just a bunch of 14 year olds who don't know the history of the web, don't understand how CSS and HTML came to be, and now reinventing things tha
