Awesome posts. You know, the entire internet is abuzz with _why news right now, but... why? Sure, he deleted his internet presence. It's probably a healthy thing to do once in a while. Like spring cleaning! He's still alive people! He's

Putting coca leaves in your mouth before you start your work day is typical in many parts of South America. It's like drinking your cup of coffee. However... drying and powdering it, cutting it with a handful of chemicals, and illegally di

I hope he didn't take my extremely down voted, (apparently) not funny, pun ridden comment on this article too seriously. My puns were harmless, I swear. Any comic drawn in programming text immediately makes me think of _why: http://news

Jeesh... is this thing on? Humor in puns people, humor in puns. Granted I didn't realize there was also a Haskell variant of such a document. So many down votes makes a man sad... T_T

_Why did you do this? You need to make it more poignant. Perhaps you should pack up your shoes, some hpricots, and go camping. Lay it all out on a RedCloth, drink some potion, and get unHoly. Then, only then... may you reach optimum poig

I didn't even realize this was Woody Allen. Awesome read.

That was awesome. I wish I was understood half of those undertones, but the story was fresh and somehow sexy in a bizarre, sociopathic, way. Thank you for sharing that gnosis :)

Hey Matt, I just lived in a rural and isolated (2 hrs of a horrible mountainous drive to the nearest city) town of 3k, for 2 years. We just moved to the outskirts of a city of 3.5 million about 2 weeks ago, due to a distant family member b

Oh no... now along with the bluetooth people talking to themselves, you'll have a bunch of people scanning slowly around with their iphones out. But seriously, this is awesome. Great work!

Exactly. I just moved from Takaka to Seattle, and still have to travel there from time to time. SEA->LAX->AUK->NEL. My last trip was from Nelson to Connecticut: NEL->AUK->LAX->ORD->LGA->BDL. Ugh.

You get less girls in mini-skirts at the library. Biggest, distraction, ever.

I had to read that about 5 times. As a father of 2... I agree completely :)

Good post, but most of those are SQL specific, and not really unique to Postgres, right? But yeah, very crucial points you covered that you see a lot of people not implementing!

Oh, heh... just realized the lack of comment box meant that this was an internal post. Didn't realize this was a YCombinator company. But alas... I still stick to my original post ;)

What if you're married to an English speaker already, and you can't leave the country (tons of kids and a job)? Immersion is obviously ideal, but not always practical. Then, you're left with finding friends who speak the language, college

"If it's not "optimal" then you are wasting. Either water, or energy, but you are wasting." Not really. "Optimal" means "most desirable". There are a lot of places that aren't the "most desirable" locations where you can plant an avocado

True, it is worth the research... however, what about spending that money on establishing mangroves in the areas where the coastal nations are being affected? The benefit from a small coastal mangrove buffer is amazing.

I disagree. If I can grow avocado's locally, and it's not the "optimal" place for growth but produces perfectly good avocado's... why wouldn't you? If my area was a desert, and required an obscene amount of water to grow the avocado tree...

This is silly. They were doing something similar in Nevada, where they brought in salt water, and planted salt water species in for bio-fuel and fodder. The thing is, the natures process turns organic matter into a salt binding agent on dec

Do you eat marijuana? That is an entirely, if not more appropriate, question. Smoking is obviously the prominent method of use, but it seems like nobody actually ingests it, or talks about ingesting it. I've made glycerin tinctures out of

Oh, and on your call to action, I like the site! Is there a legend in regard to those icons in the items pictures? Like, the icons of the roots, are there different variations if they were taproots vs runners? You may want to make mouse-o

Where do you get your Saguaro cacti!? You know about everyone running out into the desert, poaching them, and pretty much leaving the desert lifeless? Everyone wants them for their McMansion's in San Diego, and especially the central coas
