Another thing you touch and interact with in a home is light switches. It's amazing to me how nice odd light switches are. Twisty knobs or metal buttons – anything besides the normal off-white plastic switch and cover. They don't play as we

I think this upsets me. How is this at all fair or good to the people involved? What is the intended message? Edit: It has full names as the alt text for each photo. That is completely unnecessary. Here's the open directory of all the photo

I think the better description you're looking for is, "The conversations aren't as rigorous as I'd like." But I'm confused. Do you really expect meaty, stimulating conversation when you go clubbing? Also, you seem to be going out of your wa

Doesn't surprise me. I don't know why some people here rag on new users so hard: everytime I've encountered a particularly low quality submission or comment it was from a 100+ day account.

I want to clarify that I don't mean it's foolish to make a scene about real book banning. I mean that it's foolish to get so up in arms over an accusation of book banning without waiting for evidence.

I really respect Clay for this post (though I am floored that anyone would believe Amazon intended what happened), because it's definitely not socially required to apologize or feel embarrassed for being wrong about anger if the thing was b

Aren't you describing pop music in general? I don't see how what you said only applies to "modern" pop.

I started (what I hope will be) an HN for design a few days ago: http://reddit.com/r/designthought/ Existing design link sites are very low level and amateur. I'm trying to create a place for design links with substance.

Really really bad choice of terms: it took me until the middle of the article to realize Nielson is comparing these new "mega dropdowns" to navigation with the <select> element – not one dimensional dropdowns!

I don't think it's possible for a website to do what you describe: a webpage doesn't have access to or even know about your other tabs. The best I can think to do would be to use the browser's bookmark all tabs feature and then export the

Did you ever know a kid who would say something mean and then quickly follow it up with "JK!"? That kid was annoying. I don't think it was a sincere effort. That's my point. Zed just wanted to be able to say mean things about people and n

I've never said anything about a Zed Shaw link before, but this has my hands up in the air. What comes to my mind is a fumbling art student who's been called out on a bad piece, so he's now claiming it's a parody of bad work, or, no wait,

It is hip and progressive: they're sacrificing an opportunity to present their products in the best light possible, and are instead trusting the general public to describe them. To me that's a huge display of confidence in their product.†
