i like the data tracking and chart, but the conclusion is a little weak...maybe he's getting better at concentrating and coffee has nothing to do with it. (or rather, i suspect both are influences)

hmmm...is this a tech cofounder site? a site to find friends? a dating service? i want to believe in the site--bringing people together in authentic non-slimey convenient ways is awesome. the mobile part throws me. i barely use my phone and

reminds me of yesterday's font page submission on poor use of analogies. not saying it is, but i can't help seeing the connection...oh god! may this is a bad analogy. will it never end!!

if the original code writers had used comments and asserts to not only assert their assumptions but then maintain those assumptions over time, then you wouldn't have to. plus, they'll probably introduce less bugs and debug faster in the fut

furthermore, it means instead of a personal filter you get a mob filter. kind of sucks. at least reddit has categories.

the next statistic i want to see is the number of people effected by political advertisements...or say this paper.

one's impact is not necessarily "telling others what to do," though i see your point when the consequence of this action is deciding legislatures or executives. nonetheless, i think the psychology behind caring about voting and, say, progra

this is one of the best pieces of theater i've ever seen. it's beautiful both in form and function (coral, fish and submergence threat).

i actually don't understand this feature and would have liked some explanation. do i provide a regex that should match the http response? or do i provide a header code or tyep?

this is ridiculous. checks are useful for people to pay each other in sums larger than cash. i almost never have cash on me (speaking of handing someone paper that represents a value...). i pay rent with checks, therapy and house bills. uti

pretty funny until i got to #6. your use of "pussy-whipped" in this case is demeaning to both the man and the woman, and didn't fit with the rest of the comment's tone.

er, what about the second experiment, where light exercise reduced infection to 12% versus 50% for no exercise and 70% for 5x as much exercise? that seems to suggest that doing a little bit of work keeps the body healthy. furthermore, the s

if our changing habits were coupled with our buying, lobbying and voting behavior, then it would have a significant effect. furthermore, the culture and ethics we instill today will be in charge of corporations in a few decades.

why hire women at all? other than getting to pay them less. i kind of wonder whether it's harder for women to get funding, too. what if they get pregnant? what if they have a family? on the other hand, i've heard enough comments from the ol

that's what the non-tech guy on our team is for (among others things). constant user studies. you have to be hitting the right crowd. asking advice from HN or random people only works if your site is meant to have universal appeal. HN in pa

you must have a job in order to get food stamps. one of my house mates tried to get on food stamps (he was on them from seattle when he moved here). he was self employed: he made sweatshirts and sold them on etsy, as well as other odd-jobs

my first thought is: this happens all the time, if by tiny pieces you mean atoms. gently heat a balloon until it swells to twice its size. am i missing something?

this might be appropriate for NASA level programs, which i suspect are heavily spec'd and designed before any code is written, and then they want the code to work, probably without much iteration. i'm not sure if this is completely wise,

i don't know. in college i wrote static and dynamic program analyzers, and was in a very pro-java-typing group. when i moved to python i was sure the lack of typing would be problematic. the lack of static typing has NEVER caused a bug. a f

i often wish i could stream books. if the kindle allowed me to check out from a digital library and return books, even with a very low monthly fee or very low price per book, that would be sweeeeeet.
