When I think about this problem, I feel like there are 2 major priorities that tug from different ends of the spectrum on this issue. 1) I want innovation. I want new features for the web. I don't want innovation to be hampered by th

So many comments about the name. All of a sudden I have a strange urge to see the next big open source project name themselves fjoi43isoitoei. Because names of technology projects only have as much importance as the reader attributes to t

I think this concept works well until you consider "lateral movement" between companies. ie. it works as long as a developer leaving / laid-off-from the company will be compensated at their new job just as well as the manage

What steps would a group of people (civilization?) need to take in order to make progress here? When choices are abundant, the masses have been enabled, and yet knowledge is still at a premium?

Such a tiring debate. This is what a function call looks like in PHP: myfunc($arg1,$arg2); What a mess, right? Functions can represent any subset of computation within a program, or in some cases a function can represent all of the c

I have a hard time understanding precisely what gives these companies such high perceived values. In the end I have to believe people are measuring the value based almost exclusively on the website's "traction". Frankly, I t

One of my most memorable "bubble talk" moments was when I was living in South Florida. To clarify, that's only to say it's easy for me to recall given the unique circumstances of the conversation, not that it was partic

Last time I was so perplexed with a valuation was back in 2007/2008 when BlackBerry was trading at over $100 per share.

Just a side note, somewhat related. I'm very interested to see where this argument (webview vs native) ends up. Say in 10 years. It seems to me that every time there's a "proprietary" vs "open" argument, for

There's probably room here for a niche consumer product. Something that one could wear on a flight discretely, that would behave as a makeshift parachute should one find oneself in this circumstance. If it were cheap enough (and not

So if I understand correctly, then twigs and leaves could be boats? :) I guess if a boat was originally constructed of a bunch of twigs (some of which still had leaves on them), but caught on fire. One lucky leaf was knocked off and manag

vibrate-only alarms don't work. The UI allows you to set no sound, and choose a vibrate pattern, but it doesn't trigger when it's supposed to. I learned that you have to create and load a "silent.mp3" file and sel

How confident are scientists that life on Earth began in the conditions of present-day Earth? I don't think they were trying to assert this necessarily (that the current conditions of Europa were necessary and sufficient for life to ex

I don't think it's just the "internet services" that they need to take more seriously. Ever since I bought my iphone (about 1 week ago) I've had an itch to write a blog post about my first experiences using their C

To describe this concept I've always used a boat as the subject. Imagine you have a boat. Now take a piece off of it. Is it still a boat? How far can you go until it no longer holds the distinction of being a boat?

I think the ideas presented appear somewhat contradictory. I may be missing something here because the following 2 ideas seem contradictory to me. 1) Apple's secrecy 2) Apple's pivot If they're pivoting, why be secret about

I'm sorry, that you could read this entire thread and come to such a conclusion.

To be honest, it is threads of comments like this that make me wish HN had a Mute or Block option. I apologize, but it's just not worth continuing this conversation because we are talking about completely different things.

When I read responses like this (that have no connection with the comments they're in response to) I have to just assume that Hacker News has switched out my comments and replaced them with something completely different. Please let me

Please read the post again. It's clear you've jumped to conclusions. Perhaps you're not among those who this post was directed toward?

On a more reflective / somber note. I am a huge fan of the idea of empowering all classes of people. So the fact that this lady was able to disrupt the flight is I think (big picture) a good thing. Instead of simply dismissing this p
