The town in East Tennessee is Bluff City and it’s notorious for its speed traps, cameras, and lazy law enforcement. It was so bad someone who got a ticket bought their domain when it expired https://abcnews.go.com/Technology

Like I commented in the last post they've entirely missed the point. You shouldn't be allowed to deny a client access to their data unless there's some law being broken. Data is property and you shouldn't be able to sudd

The most frustrating thing to me is that I can't just find a good app for my daughter without there being some sort of dependency on 1 or 2 of the following: Ads, Links to other games/apps, microtransactions. I want to buy a full

With all due respect I think you’ve missed the point. The larger point from my perspective is that you denied your client the ability to move their data off your platform. This would be akin to someone breaking the terms of their lease and

The book The Fish That Ate the Whale was a pretty good read about all that. https://www.amazon.com/dp/1250033314/ref=cm_sw_r_sms_awdb_t1...

You're right.

Seppin is right I don't know for sure but their are some indicators that you can watch. Bond yield curve inverting is one. Although there are some contrarians that are saying this time is different. The other big signal I look at is em

Yeah I guess my idea was more along the thought that as ads get less and less effective that the least efficient methods go first.

It's just something I've always heard other talking about. Although I started to look into it and there is some that believe it doesn't lag or lead that it's directly tied to GDP. The fate of the ad industry is directly

I just see this as part of the impending economic downturn. Ads are always the first to go.

I'm the biggest Apple fanboy out there, but I think they've lost their way and I hope someone helps them find a way back before I need to replace my laptop. Listen guys and gals I know you've worked hard on your news service,

Keeping notes on books in git isn't something I would've ever thought of, but it's perfect really. You can fork your own copy and add your own thoughts. PDF might not be the best way to do it maybe just markdown.

That's my thoughts as well. That area has always been a little slow to adopt new tech and more than a little suspicious of it.

Antecdotal but I’ve heard people in the Bristol TN/VA region refer to electric cars as a threat to their daily life and values. They refer to Obama era policies around clean energy and cite it as an example of corporate welfare I’ve ev

I’ve been thinking about robots on the farm for a long time myself. I’ve always approached the idea from the view point of cheaply modernizing tractors first so that more farmers would benefit. My idea would be to take a platform that farme

It's been speculated that next year the MacBook won't have an Intel processor. Instead it'll have the A{n+1}x chip and my guess is that the Air will be the cheapest and smallest Mac with Intel still inside.

Flagging for off topic and not relevant. I don’t come to HN to see stuff like this.

You know honestly I don’t have a good answer for that. On the one hand I feel like we’re intelligent enough to rise above partisan or two sided politics but on the other hand we’re not intelligent enough to realize what the true implication

by cprayingmantis 8y ago
I’ve been noticing this for some time as well. Either HN is becoming more political or someone is manipulating the voting. I honestly think HN is at its best when it’s apolitical.

It's the same reason a lot of other tech dinosaurs are valued so highly. They've been around forever and people are betting on things staying the same rather than changing.

I had to read this very carefully to determine if it was parody or not. This seems just like the old system of selling software. Get a free demo, sell the actual software, 12 months later add more features rinse and repeat. There will alway
