I like the arguments. I had to fight my family as well when making any ventures. Will they be fruitful? who knows. However my family was always saying "why risk failure, when you can have a nice 9-5 job that always pays well and is fairly s

This is all horsecrap. Adobe flash never ONCE ran successfully on my HTC Evo. It is absolute garbage and is never useful. IDK why anyone mentions "we support flash on our phones/tablets"... its all crap. It barely works if it even does. Rea

Funny, just reading the title of this HN submission immediately said in my mind "Nothing". Who in their right minds develops flash mobile games?

The point is that the current system is high risk, high reward. Except if the risk goes sour, there is no "you're not getting paid this year" or something. Your bonus may just be smaller or something or nothing. You pay is already high. NO

They mean: Unlimited WiFi usage. Since EVERYTHING is routed through wifi whenever possible, you can call, text, browse without any alternative usage patterns. Also no overages. However if you are a very heavy user, they will terminate your

Sandboxing is great since less and less control is in the hands of the app. I am sure apple will keep rolling out features expanding sandboxing, this is just the default impl. This also means that basically it will be harder and harder for

(1) Trolls are definitely a problem, but so is apple, MS, and Oracle. Hell we saw what happens when Samsung got pissed off, they decided to start suing for patents the world needs to implement cell phones. Samsung may have failed, but MS ma

Boo @joebadmo!!! I've seen it, some sexism actually. However those who are sexist/racist are easy to spot, they are just aholes in general. The one I knew was very easily spotted as every female member of the team complained about him in a

The #1 discussion on google for filtering websites was basically "How do I stop experts-exchange from appearing in my results?" However this is what the antitrust hearings were about, its scary how trafficers of information control percepti

notice that ~ 2/3 of the world population is south asia. Dear god. Nigeria and Pakistan combined have the same population as the US. Europe is a statistical error number wise compared to everything else.

I second this sentiment. Crusader no regret was one of my favorite games growing up. I don't believe I ever finished it, it was a difficult game, then again back then many things were hahahaha.

flame/troll bait aside... This was most definitely intentional. EA has demonstrated a lack of giving a shit about customers since Spore and even before that. Spore was a catalyst. They prey on ignorance of users. The truth is by now someone

Focusing on where they can join the masses is good. Problem is that I worry what would come out of a ubuntu phone. Will it be android-like but not quite android? The same mistake as Windows XP on tablets? Etc. If they can do it well, I will

I have a better question: Imagine you have at least 15 competitors. Some of whom have been around for years. All of whom have more money than you, and same amount of reach (no... more than you). However you think they all suck and you can d

Its not perpetual since you put in a smaller energy than you get out, but you still consume a fuel that is extremely plentiful everywhere in the universe. Perpetual = outputs more energy than it uses while consuming no fuel, so it fuels its

I would like to point out, that regardless of your feelings for either person Jobs or Stallman, both is/was very smart people, and what they say/do we should pay attention to. Stallman is right about Jobs' legacy. iOS devices prevent instal

I'm sorry, where does relatively small come in here? We are talking about companies like Fox (I'm sorry, what was the parent company?) and the entire music/film industry. Google/Facebook pale in comparison. The dying industries are the midd

I also think everyone knows why IE9 is better. It's better because it supports things that Google Chrome supported when it first came out. Funny thing is... IE6 was not the problem, it was the overall strategy, which is why I can't trust MS

With the innovation related to GTA I am expecting the game to be the following: There are only three buttons: up, down, x. up = walk forward, down = turn around, x = shoot. Same thing in the car. The game will look beautiful though, so in t

I have to agree with him. I don't think top 1% are to blame, definitely somewhere in the top 1%... Maybe top 0.20% are the thiefs, the rest are opportunists. However it is true, many of the OWS are unskilled laborers, we need those less and

If you want to edit text and no time to learn emacs its "jingle". Thats right, we have a name for this editor. My point was not to focus on what features the editor would have, but what infrastructure it would have which would allow us to h

Erm, the problem is that all these editors are implementing something amazing, and something shitty. So there needs to be a way to give people the hammer they like without sacrificing the rest of the toolbox. This is why people like command
