You trolling? It never ceases to amaze me that people who read a blog post suddenly form hard lined opinions about a real world situation. To me, it's a bit sociopath-like to be so vindictive about a situation that you know next to nothing

Is it bad that when I hear David Rose talk I just want to skip to the Richard Branson video?

Wow, I've never heard of this before, but I knew a friend in college who eventually lost himself to drugs for a bit (dealing it, using it too much). He had gone from passion to passion in 1-2 year cycles. During high school he was seriously

Wow, right before it touches down the camera just gets still and I get sucked right into the video as it touches down. Otherworldly.

This article gives me hope. I've been at a megacorp soul sucking job (I realize not all are soul crushing) for the past three years after my comp. sci. degree. I'm going to make the jump as soon as possible. HN has really been both an inspi

Yep, I just started diving into Clojure. It's really been a shift for me, even though I took a class in Haskell. I still haven't totally internalized the functional paradigm. I'm really eager to see how it changes my understanding of the cu

I don't know if anyone else has had this experience, but for awhile in my teens to early 20s, I strived really hard to be a good musician. Everytime I would notice a marked improvement, I would have this almost excruciating sense of being o

Comments like these make me wish I had the Karma to down vote. Like others have said, the guy was a genius, maybe one day we'll catch up.

This should also be advice for Groupon... as their shares continue to slide down.

I doubt the US would seek the death penalty. It would be way too public, instead they'd probably just put him in a black hole like Gitmo or some super max. And that would be that.

Well, for the kickstarter-like campaign they ran, $50 in one lump sum makes sense. I would hope when it's live, they would also offer a monthly payment plan as well.

Does this mean it's too late for me to get together my op-ed piece about App.net's "segregating" policies? Seriously, though, do we know if the $50 upfront is only for this early stage or is that also the plan for when it goes live to the p

How far you make it down the list before you realize it's a troll is the quality of said troll... I give it a 4/10.

Ah the American conquer, might is right arguement. No wonder your country ranks pretty high on the misery scale... There's more to life than "dominating" industries. Edit: I should qualify this a bit more. If it does make you happy to basic

Miles Davis has recorded some BS as well, lest we not forget. That made his comments about why did they put out that record or record companies this or that into some perspective. Perhaps it was part of his frustrations of his own shortcom

I spent sometime in Lyon last summer, the cafes aren't too slow when you want to grab a bite to eat. However, I can only assume one would go to McDonald's to get a Royale with Cheese ;)

The article mentions that they've barely scratched the surface (as it were) of understanding how the optic nerve works in a large way (part of that is color encoding). I would assume they've gotten this far on a little guesswork and labwork

Running Arch Linux on a Raspberry Pi, it's pretty awesome as a next step distro beyond Ubuntu, but yeah... as an accessible platform for gamers of all kinds, ah no :)

Interesting little tidbit, Jack Thompson was disbarred permanently by the Florida Supreme Court for making up BS about ebil vidya games and how ebil the people who play/make them are.

LOL. I'm pretty sure humans weren't around since the dawn of time. Also, asserting that things will never change is about the worst way to prove a point. It is said an Eastern monarch once charged his wise men to invent him a sentence, to b

My stepfather, who passed recently, always told me this in every discussion we got into that was tangentially related to this sort of topic. I think he really had it instilled in him while he was at MIT. It makes a lot of sense, there's alw
