This was an good explanation and it made me consider some things that hadn't occurred to me so thanks :) I figured the probability isn't handled by the car wash itself but instead essential to derive the price of the quote. Surely they must

Thanks, this is exactly what I was intending to convey. Never did I say the Apple lawsuits were my justification for thinking Apple is unethical. I simply alluded that recent patent bullying is one of the bigger public outcries against the

I somewhat misspoke. I lost interest after when I read enough to deem the article too artificial an example and lost interest. I wanted to give honest feedback and see if other people perhaps thought the example was I contrived as I did - n

There is certainly the fans that will buy anything Apple because it's Apple regardless of what Apple does. That being said, like you, I'm not sure if I can bring myself to support undoubtedly one of the most unethical companies in the world

Though I agree with both of you, I think that there is a certain amount of success that drives these designs to continue to be made. In retrospect it's quite easy to criticize the design here and naturally, we are all pretty unanimous that

Why am I getting downvoted for this? I am not making any commentary on price discrimination but instead, saying that the artificially created scenario could at least be more approachable for readers.

The price of a car wash should take into account the aggregate probability for any car to get damaged. The idea that one would price discriminate via the exact make and model is absurd and when I stopped reading...

If Apple were to do this (again) people would probably be upset, but when Nokia does it, I'm just disappointed. Nokia is bringing real innovation to the mobile market and unlike most android releases I see, it actually pairs it with awesome

The problem isn't the color so much as the miniscule low-weighted font. As opposed to the OP's website, I can read every single one of those contrast rebellion links without issue. Do I win something?

My thoughts exactly... comments and ratings are just social feedback anyway. Moreover, YouTube ads are stuff your sister might even like: Katy Perry and iCarly. Hipsters are the ones who are unable to bear those 20 seconds, not little girls

I'd say with the quality of music I've seen, people would be willing to pay (month/year) for the service provided he develops it a bit further. Another possibility would be to have referrals to purchase the music like turntable.fm does.

Very true. Some large tech companies now still have pretty horrendous stocks. Microsoft has been flat for like a decade and it's still an industry leader which is counterintuative to people who don't know that much about the market. I'm sur

Otherwise nice. It's seems more likely that the sick just aren't clever enough to see what a dick move it is to give up. "Aversion to western medicine"... suicide... what's the difference?

whoosh I guess I thought some people might enjoy the sound of other people at work? Rain sounds weren't exactly intuitive for me either living in Seattle. Thanks :)

Does anyone feel like they work more productively when listening to people bash their keyboards or is this more of a novelty thing? Personally, I can understand the rain sounds, this - not so much.

I don't know the history of the word conservatism but I do know there was a time when Republicans were more progressive than Democrats. Eventually they switched. I agree that having a more popular moderate party would be nice, granted, I fe

Does it make your day every time you see another unnecessary language or framework on the HN homepage? I'm just as indifferent to those as I am to caring about what SoundCloud does, if not more so.

Changing languages is not how progress happens. It's only progressive when the long-term benefits of the language outweigh the inefficiency of training all your devs to use it. Assuming that is true for Go (debatable), at the end of the day
