Can you offer a good book on that coherently explains US federal monetary policy? You have a good handle on what's going on. I still don't quite understand it.

That's interesting. I stopped at a McDonald's very near Coalinga* and on the take out window it read verbatim: "Chemicals known to the state of California to cause cancer, or birth defects or other reproductive harm may be pr

They took a few seemingly unrelated things and uncovered just how intimately intwined they actually are. Although abstract, isn't that essentially what a good hacker does on the daily? I think so.

I'm confused if a low-enough Reynolds number implies that laminar flow is still happening, how would the dimples on a golf ball even create turbulent flow given they have such a low Reynolds number? EDIT: Ah, the velocity determines in

Yeah I'm curious about this myself. Doesn't this create a pretty serious security situation? GitHub isn't a small startup anymore, I would assume they'd have some pretty serious security precautions in place.

I feel like hosting events is trivial. It's finding the events that is difficult. It's trivial to get a stripped down ticketing system going, it's much harder to get people to see those events. I'm surprised there'

I feel bad for your brother because I've been there. You should tell him to seriously consider taking the highest paying job he can get, as soon as he can get it, in whatever field he can. It's just a depressing slog, emotional&#x

It's weird because they've had a feature similar to this before. It was under a tab called "Nearby" or something in their left navigation. If I remember correctly it was web only but a user could access it on their phone

Awesome. Loom should consider changing that landing video image though on their homepage. It just...something seems...not right. Or maybe make that iPad more prominent. I don't know.

It seems this is where most hardware is headed. Companies just want to get people integrated into their ecosystems as quickly and easily as possible. They don't really care to make money off the hardware itself. Also, the cost of manuf

They didn't need an event. It's pretty well known that they had planned to invade Iraq for quite a while prior to 9/11. The reasons we invaded Iraq had little to do with 9/11.

I believe outsourcing to the midwest would fix the housing shortage here in the valley as well. Less people would need to move here and thus, hopefully, help rebalance the housing supply.

There are some strange people our here in the valley. I thought maybe he was one. Either way, the thought crossed my mind and I posted it here because there's also some strange people on HN that I thought could relate.

I think I've had this same guy near the same area. I thought initially he was doing it to avoid conversation with passengers and to hopefully over hear some juicy valley gossip. Or he was just deaf.

I wonder if they'll eventually allow anyone to go to this site too be interviewed, live, by an actual engineer. For example, a prospect just shows up and jumps right into a technical interview with an interviewer from an interested com

Instagram has been allowed to go at their own pace since they've been acquired. Parse, also, has essentially gone on it's own and created things at it's own pace. It seems they're having the same attitude with Whatsapp.

Maker recently acquired Blip which likely attracted Disney's attention. It seems a lot of their partners in RPM networks(owned by Maker) have high turnover; many smaller channels with new talent. Blip seems like the desired goal here.
