As a non-developer every now and then I see an article on HN that really hits home. This was one of them. I find I have to "set the mood" in order to be able to even start reading a book, which involves a bunch of prep work that I

This sentiment comes up in almost every crypto thread and I think it's a bit misguided. It's referred to as crypto because...that's how people know it. Google trends explains my point better than I ever could. https:/&#

This is actually already a thing., check out Gridcoin. Been around for a couple years but never really took off. I still think it's a really good idea, but might need better marketing. http://www.gridcoin.us/

There are a few altcoins out there focusing on ease of use and trying to bring in users/early adopters who are not just crypto-junkies. The ones I can think off of the top of my head are: - DASH (Digital Cash) - Vertcoin - NAVcoin Of t

Interesting seeing this story this morning, my company recently moved into the old Bell Labs building. Now called Bell Works, it does actually look like it's going to become a hub of new tech companies in the area. It's pretty hum

This is really interesting, but my heart hurts at the SEO value lost in having the main content be all PDFs. Not that there's really a NEED to have all of this crawl-able & indexable by search engines, but it could probably reach a
