My guess is that they were rationalizing it in the experiment context. "The authority is telling me to go ahead, there has to be something else going on here. His life can't really be in danger."

"I don't think that means what you think it means." That experiment deals with ability to disobey authority, not with the basic goodness of the people performing the actions. Nearly 100% of the people performing the actions questioned what

Someone I know is suggesting that these documents were already free and available on the web. I don't really know, since I haven't (and don't have the bandwidth to, really) downloaded the torrent and cross referenced. Here are the links h

I am entitled. I am entitled to a competitive market. I am entitled to companies that have to compete for my business, not take it for granted. I am entitled to companies that always try to move forward and improve their products, not ja

Good call. I'd had it default to newest queue for the front page. But most people who arrive probably aren't going to be interested in the newest recipes, but rather the best recipes. Made the change. Yeah, we do have the same problem pr

Well, Fridge to Food attaches a StackExchange style reputation to people (that carries more weight than reddit karma) and does have a page where you can see user's recipes (similar to SO). Really it pulls more inspiration from StackExchang

With regard to the source control for recipes, I've been trying to get an StackExchange/Reddit sort of thing for recipes that includes some wiki editing off the ground for a year and a half. Haven't had much success, but working on version

Money is power and with power comes responsibility. Houses like this are wasteful and irresponsible on many, many levels. It’s true, focusing on this of all the problems facing us today is a little silly. And I don’t think it is the governm

What are the chances we can talk Google into buying it? I just started using it and it's beyond amazingly useful! I don't want to lose the ability to save bookmarks this way. Is there anything out there on the web that duplicates the funct

True, but many also can't stand to have their ideas challenged.

I've seen that behavior here. But then, I have some beliefs that sorely challenge many HNers world views.

The problem with it, is that it puts the fate of research grands in the hands of people who know nothing of the value of the research at hand. It also puts it in the hands of people who don't believe in research. For example, I'm sure cli

Of course you should want to make money. But money should always be the means to the end, never the end. As soon as money becomes the end to someone, that person has lost sight of what's really important in the world. From that point on t

Also, the headline doesn't seem quite so trolltastic after you hear the lecture.

Here's a transcript of it, I'm still working my way through the question period. It's very hard to summarize it. It's full of facts and is a very well constructed and impassioned speech. http://www.truth-out.org/bill-moyers-money-fights-

Mine was pretty interesting to the 10 people who's commented and the 23 who'd voted it up. It was still closed.

As someone who posted one of those RMSs that got closed, I understand your reasoning but am not pleased with the execution. My RMS was not spam. I'd been participating on the site and had posted feedback to multiple RMSs posted by other pe

* At least in the initial target community - Food Bloggers - the word Foodie does seem to be well known. Also, is it import to have the word be known? I think we can use it and even if some users don't know it, they will adopt it and come

I have no idea if anything exists to do that. I've never found it if it does. I have no idea how to do that, either. But I'll certainly keep it in mind. Maybe once I've whittled down the todo list I'll come back to it and see if I can s

I would recommend allowing moderators to use their discretion and allowing material that is tastefully non-pg. IE, if the story is legitimately sharing a funny experience of coupled or shared space life and isn't just pornographic.
