Well, time will tell. When I see something like this on a site I've never heard of before regardless of who the founders are, I guess they're aiming for young kids who are into this kind of "lord of the rings" shit at their job to go join t

I guess that totally refutes my argument! It's like Quroa, because of where the founders previously worked, suddenly got all this prestige and glamor that will turn into real fame and fortune someday because they're entitled to it.

Oh yes, that's right, because engineers don't care about compensation or their future, and probably don't have a family to feed! You know I think all engineers must be 22 year old graduates interested in technical challenges. I think when t

I guess when tiny unknown Yahoo Answer clone based startups with nothing to offer except a lot of worthless stock options that will probably never be worth anything put up an interesting programming puzzle, talented engineers will magically

How much original content is there in Google Reader? Not defending Mahalo, especially if it stealing copyrighted content from other sites, but not having original content doesn't mean you don't provide value. Google Reader has value and no

They might have a point, but TechCrunch has had an anti-iPhone tinge ever since Arrington publicly denounced the iPhone for the Google Voice app issue. Their contrast in tone between iPhone and Android articles should be a source of embarra

I think you make a lot of good points. The video and voip examples are pretty convincing.

I don't agree. Flash does too much harm, and innovation wouldn't die if it went away tomorrow.

I and others have written something like this with backend support using gd or imagemagick.

They'd please me most if they abandoned flash. Flash is a closed black box sitting in a web page. I'm working on a Google Chrome extension that finds MP3s on web pages and I hate it when I find a site with cool music but they use flash. Als

News organizations make a ton of money when lots of people die in some horrific way. You're not profiting from the bad news, you're gaining from informing others.

Link bait. Plenty of apps are still $0.99. One studio increases their price a little and they're declaring a huge change. There's no information when they made this change, I figure it must be recent. Hardly a trend.

That's also not the original post. It's a post that's been reblogged a bunch of times. I think this might be the original post: http://tumbledore.tumblr.com/post/393030100/tumblr-stole-my-...

I used gmail for maybe a year many years ago, Google Buzz ended up following people I've never talked to, including someone who spammed me once.

I use Twitter to read news, updates from organizations and look at space pictures from astronauts. I kind of have replaced Google Reader with Twitter.

It's true, I'm really impressed with Google Closure and nobody is using it. Nobody except Google and weirdos like me.

Hrm AOL provided internet service via a restrictive piece of software to people who didn't know any other way to access all of the internet. AOL distributed so many FREE AOL CDs that you could probably hollow out Mauna Kea and fill it with

The community will do as it will. If you want to keep something on topic you need moderators, like subreddit.
