The central mistake of recent digital culture is to chop up a network of individuals so finely that you end up with a mush. You then start to care about the abstraction of the network more than the real people who are networked, even thoug

I do it sometimes, when my job doesn't allow other OS's. But I install GVim. :p

Hmm. I am as bewildered by this as the author. Why would anyone edit shell scripts with notepad?

Can we please focus on the points RMS tries to make instead of on the man himself every time something he writes is linked on HN? I'm not trying to be offensive, but it's getting increasingly difficult to filter the meaningful comments from

it does not matter exactly what you think different about, but just somehow be different from them I think it does matter. Believing that 1 + 1 = cucumber, for example, has gotten me nowhere over the years, and I'm giving it up as of now.

In both Singapore and Hong Kong, most of the economic freedoms are for colonialists and not for the local Chinese. As a Singaporean Chinese, I must say, wtf? There are practically no colonialists here, and I've never experienced a lack of

Selling your company only makes sense if you think they can do a better job than you can. There's nothing wrong with that. The person who's consistently able to spot talent may not be good at nurturing said talent. That's why some people

They're radical, not stupid. Offing a couple of fellow Muslims is one thing. Having both the US and China pissed at you would be an extraordinarily stupid position to deliberately get into. There wouldn't be a cave deep enough to hide in.

It's not as bad as it used to be. I borked my X just last night when I switched graphics cards and fixed it in 10 minutes of googling on my phone. I used to do hours of booting into windows (back in the days when I still dual-booted), searc
