   I think that tipping as a percentage of the meal cost is absolutely idiotic. I have never gotten good service at an expensive restaurant, and yet the receipt gives you the math for 18%, 20%, and 22% tips. I have gotten good and bad servic

   Alexis Ohanian visits Notre Dame, & specifically meets with my advisor. We show them what we are working on in regards to analyzing Reddit (probably not the wisest thing to show them a work in progress, before all the data is collected

   I'm afraid that our research group was the reason that Reddit removed access to the vote count. Not that it has stopped us from doing research on reddit... We submitted another paper a week or so ago, and will be releasing or dataset

   In short, students actually trust people to tell the truth. Is it really very surprising? Students are conditioned to trust the information that they are given. The teacher is always right, and the student is wrong if they disagree. Critic

    It's posts like this (and the accompanying comments) that make me realize how much I still have left to learn! One of the reasons that I love HN is how informative you all are!

    OP here. I'm actually surprised that you saw this post. It was flagged almost immediately, and I didn't realize until now that it was un-flagged. It was flagged long enough, I suppose, to bury it, though. I posted it after the e

    The better question would probably be: Programmers, why don't you want to unionize? While I see the benefits of unions, I also see the cost of them. Namely, I refuse to condone an action (establish a union and require membership in or

    I'm just a grad student, but I'm shocked/appalled at the sheer number of undergrads whose only source of "news" is news satire (e.g., The Daily Show) or vlogs (e.g., insert <politically-vocal-youtuber-who-agrees-
