They had been threatened a few times before implementing it. It's about time we stopped to play this game and make it clear stuff like that won't be tolerated at all. It wouldn't have been better for Microsoft. They know very well that each

Sorry if you found that insulting. I guess I got used to this aspetic cold language you see on HN to make emotion invisible. That's one of the things I miss from Reddit. I know there are many people like you that somehow intuitively capture

Your sound like an executive too, putting emphasis on well-researched words, and mentioning things like capturing inspiration. As far as I've seen, there is little inspiration involved in most programming environments, just a lot of thinkin

It's not actually ASCII, there are many more characters used. It is however "ASCII art", in that the characters are used to graphically represent places and objects.

You're thinking of referendums. A petition is a small number of people pissed about something that not everyone may be interested in. I'm sure my grandparents have never heard of Aaron Swartz and don't know what "jailbreaking" means, so it

How about a garden with directions on the ground? Like Android, that gives you suggestions with most popular apps. If anything, it fits everyone. In the example of the legos, you could include a document with examples of what you can build,

More importantly, with the portable work stations available today. It used to be a big event to move desks. Now you can work in another floor, no need to take your bulky computer and all the cables and network configuration with you.

That's the Middle Ages mentality: in some religions where murder was not tolerated but people wanted to get rid of other people, they put them in a terrible position (buried alive, closed room with no food, daily torture) with some sort of

>You don't have to buy twice. How do you know ports will be free? It removes most of the incentive that developers would have to make a good port: money (unless Valve pays for the ports, which would be very expensive).

It sure is an interesting concept. I didn't really want to know all about North Korea. And somehow, thanks to the layout, I think that I got the general idea in a better way than I would have if it has been one big column. It feels with an

I find it singificant that you used the word "justice" against the judicial system. The very concept of law started as a need for order and justice, preventing grave crimes. Now, controlled by the powerful, it stands as a way to reduce just

Agreed. With him in jail for decades, this was probably the biggest action he could have ever done for the rest of his live. This man had devoted his life to progress and may have very well sacrificed himself for it, given the date of his s

Then Swartz was no threat. He was going to upload the articles to other people if he wanted to. He was going to have to provide the search tools. I don't understand why they would "[secure] from Mr. Swartz the content that was taken, an

If I were OP, $5000 for a -in my opinion- promising application delivered within a month? Sign me up! Honestly, I'd probably pay $5000 just for some good ideas if disclosure didn't ruin the concept.

I believe most people would like a cheap and small board to use it like they would use a regular computer: high-level development, media player, various "apps", small home server. Clearly, for these people, performance/price is the first an
