Telecom companies do the same stuff as far as pushing the limits of the law and they are pretty universally reviled. Apple is successful because it provides things to people that they really want and like.

It depends on the school. Some schools are much more well known and can be much more selective in who they accept. Other schools are just starting out and are trying to find their footing. In general though, I find that the people from thes

This is the kind of knee jerk panic comment I expect to find in the comments section of NYT, not voted up on HN. Why is this "really, really bad?" You talk about how bad this is with a bunch of FUD language about how this is a t

It's not alarming, it just seems pointless. This isn't going to save lives, because rear view cameras are used when reversing, which happens at low speed. The best thing this will do is cut down on kids getting run into while a ca

Facebook isn't IBM or Oracle. Instagram is still doing fine, it's kept its own identity and I would never have known they were bought by facebook if it wasn't such huge news. To me, on the surface, it's following the exa

Wait a second. These emails[1] (not the commentary around them) seem to say that the big tech companies in the valley agree not to recruit employees of other companies. There's a big difference between recruit and hire. It seems to m

I hate the whole "don't read the comments" crap. It's like burying your head in the sand and saying "I don't want to hear anything that I may not like." I get it. Anonymous people on the internet are assho

So I guess the whole meme of "if the code was open to scrutiny, this bug wouldn't have happened" doesn't seem to be so valid now. There was legitimate outrage on Hacker News that Apple could allow such a bug, and that it
