Going back a few decades, newspapers were dependent on the newsstands they were sold out of. They could put your paper higher or lower on the stand (ranking). Going back not as far, CNN was dependent on your local cable company to deliver t

Ok but, I'm sure the people doing that kind of work value it differently than just "how nice of a car can I afford." There is a real calling there.

It's interesting how much we associate a place with the fulfillment (career) we had there. I always smile fondly when I pass by the buildings I worked in years ago, in the valley. It's a strange thought that the building I spent s

Such an absurd comment that was. If your customers are the ones paying for ads, and you cause your customers to leave, isn't that just deliberately tanking your business? And "document in detail" it for who? As though there&#

So true. NASA's achievements are the highest of human accomplishments, imo. Sometimes I picture being on the team that built these triumphs, I think I would be overtaken with pride forever.

i don't think OP meant "don't compete" as in "they're not in the race". i think OP meant that Nintendo just plays their own, slow, long game, focusing on what they want to focus on.

It's a strange thing that purescript is not more prevalent than it is. It's got lots of development activity, and a huge package library, not to mention interop with JavaScript as well. My guess is that Haskell already takes all t

Any time I'm in Barnes and Noble (in the US) I find the latest copy of 2600 magazine, which is in the same vein as phrack. With 2600 at least, I can never find anything that interesting to read. Articles are usually about a) the hacker
