I never go the theater anymore. The largest factors for me are the cost and comfort. The cost is almost as much as buying the Blu-ray on launch week from Amazon or Best Buy, I'm not including the beverages or popcorn and candy (I don't ever

I only stated this because the comment was implying what seems to be that by eliminating a specific type of food they were able to lose 30 pounds and feel great. I was trying to point out that they could have not completely eliminated this

It will depend on your goals. Do you want to lose weight? Do you want to gain weight? Are you just trying to maintain? I personally have not hacked my nutrition. I have used common sense. If your goal is to lose weight, you will need to bur

Not to state the obvious, but you lost 30 pounds because you burned more energy than you consumed. It wasn't the sugar that caused you weight gain or loss.

Agreed, this is what I wanted to say when I saw this. I think it's creative and interesting. If one doesn't like it, what is preventing them from either ignoring it or quickly viewing and moving on? It sure is alot better than great amount

Thanks for mentioning. I have heard of the site, but never checked out what it was for. Looks nice, I'm going to try it out. Does anyone know how they handle lossless? It says in the FAQ they support FLAC, which all my music is encoded in.

Be more social. Meet more people. Join clubs. Go to some parties. Not study so much. Be less serious. Take more risks. Join some intramural activities. Basically everything I didn't do during college that I probably should have.

Same here. I worked from home for a year and was going to go insane! It was a great feeling yet still very depressing. It doesn't help that I am single and live alone either though.

I wish I could favorite an artist somehow. Am I missing this option some place? It seems so obvious to me. I like listening to albums, not a random mix of tracks usually and want to be able to keep tabs on my go to artists. Right now I have

Perhaps for some people. I would love it though. I can fit so much more on my screen making me feel greatly more productive. For example, having 4 vim split windows open and viewable all at once.

Yes,I know this, but the size of the video files are much greater than the music files. I hear people complaining about the sizes of lossless music files, but not about 1080p video files. In fact, I have read comments from people complainin

What I don't get is why don't places like iTunes and Amazon offer Lossless options for downloading? I mean, here they are bragging about 720p, 1080p, high definition video which is gigantic in size, approaching or exceeding gigabytes for a

This is 17" inches though, correct? The Vaio Z has an option to get 1920x1200 (or is it 1920x1080?) last time I looked and it is only 13" I believe. It does come at cost though and does not run Mac OS X. However, the option is there. I thin

Maybe make the up / down votes on a comment a reward for participating on that thread. That is, if you up vote / down vote a comment and make a comment on that comment you can view that comments vote count. Does that make sense or did it co

Thanks for replying. I figured people wouldn't read into it like that, but what I have learned is that one has to state very explicitly on Hacker News. I agree with you and I was hesitant to state what I did about that. Off Topic: I really

I probably should have prefaced my post stating that any post that talks about diet and/or nutrition on Hacker News ends up turning into geeks arguing about proper diet and nutrition and telling others what is and is not healthy. Which by r

I'm sorry, but I really disagree with any sort of dieting advice articles appearing on Hacker News for multiple reasons. Reading this thread only backs up my own thoughts and reasons why I dislike these articles. First of all, everyone has

I didn't downvote you, I can't downvote, but I like the multiwindow layout because then it's very easy to use an external editor in place of the Xcode editor. I liked using MacVim or TextMate when I first got into iOS development.

I honestly wish this were not the case. Nearly everything on iTunes seems more expensive than the Blu-ray version on day / week 1 release. To make it worse, the Blu-ray version will often come with the iTunes digital copy on a separate disk

Best I have found is continued practice of overhand grip heavy deadlifts. The thicker the bar the better. Also, make it a habit to use the thicker bars if your gym has an option. I've also heard a towel and pullup bar is another option. Wra
