I like the identifying people idea but don't think it will have the preservation affect. If the preservation of the "Hacker News" is the goal then moving to "class" system would be more efficient then identifying people. As hacker news grow

If everything boiled down to money, then it would be simple as simple as the author stated. I would look at it a little differently; people join companies for many reasons, if you are deciding to leave because of money. You probably already

Fuck That! - EDIT I think that they should at least mention what the benefits of such an arrangement would be. Just hanging out with cool people doing work for free people isn’t really that beneficial. Everyone also knows, once a developer

Contention brings integrity to the design process. It's not the positive or critical things that are said in meetings that will harm a company. It's the things that aren't said that will eat away the core of a company. When things that sho

I wasn't talking about zipping up your files on a CD and putting them in a draw. There are companies like IronMountain, which give you off-site physical storage. I am sure the deletion protection Jungle Disk provides is good but what if so

Not sure about this. I am currently building stuff on Amazon and only use the REST interface. Even when it comes to needing my own Java API, converting to Java to XML isn't a big deal anymore. It would be good to see the proportion of SOAP/

How do I page through the questions? Seems like this could be offered with a modified version of wordpress and you would get way more functionality. Just change blog to question and comments to answers.

I guess I would put it this way: The growth of societies needs and wants have far outpaced the capacity to deliver those. Not from a physical resource capacity but from an intellectual one. Combine this with the greed that is part of huma

Being that I used a shovel just this morning, I can think of a couple things: 1.) Snow falls of the end of the shovel. 2.) Can't use the shovel to clean up the car. Need to get a snow brush and if the snow is deep it doesn't work well. 3.)
