That's true. The processor+RAM are sufficient for most stuff. I haven't stressed it because I don't have a need for that. I hope the manufacturers take a lesson and stop pushing GHz in every person's face like they do wi

Lots of people loved Moto G as a secondary/travel phone. But for me, it's my primary phone now, even though I consider myself an early adopter of cutting edge technology. Where I live, there are no carrier subsidies. This new tren

This has nothing to do with hacker news. A corrupt businessman was unfortunate to be on the receiving end and landed in jail for billions he probably owes to millions of old gullible investors who lost their retirement income to his Ponzi s

The finesse of Sublime Text is admirable (considering it's mostly 1 guy's work). However the ratio of open/closed bugs on Github isn't too comforting. I hope they expand the team soon.

If you actually look at the details, these terms aren't used in the same context as we might imagine. If there was a way to filter out useless projects, this would get interesting.

It's ironical that the top rated comment on HN for the past few hours is going against the "hacker" culture just because it's a government that's doing it? There's no need to for them to match Intel at any leve

You're missing the point. They aren't doing it for commercial success. You don't have to compete with Qualcomm or Intel or anyone. You just have to be able to produce processors that can handle the government issue about not

You are looking at it from an entirely different angle. You don't have to be Intel. Within 3-4 years you can have a neat processor comparable with current crop of mobile processors - assuming you have a good team & funding, no com

Slightly off topic, your site design is awesome. Would you share what libraries/frameworks/skills/time-resources are needed for something like this. Just curious. For me, the graphics & layout are far more interesting.

With Facebook, no. My guess is that if you've verified with a phone number, they make it difficult to reset by an unverified email (they favor the fake user and assume that the email was entered incorrectly). Moreover, I don't wan
