They might be raising revenue for the city with noise ordinance fines, who knows. I wish the reporter had included some possible motives. I never met a city cop who was interested in this kind of silly stuff. Lots of bored small town cops,

The problem with this is most people have bad taste in music.

I wish it had a "cooltools" section or something, as it is even using the search function there's a lot of unrelated stuff you have to sift through.

Ask HN: Favorite site for finding new js libraries, frameworks, db stuff, etc?

Doesn't ruthless moderation just lead to rebellion? If HN had let this story go instead of censoring it the world wouldn't have ended. But now people are wondering (at least I am) about the mod's motives. If they're willing to remove stor

They're deleting everything related to this. Somebody thinks Sendgrid was hacked and this is all bullshit, at least that's the excuse.

HN censoring this story is only going to send it to defcon 4.

Ah, too many things are illegal as it is. Instead let's tax calorie dense foods and use that money to subsidize healthy stuff so at least parents can afford to feed their kids real food if they want to.

So now when you google this chick you'll see she likes to start trouble and doesn't appreciate dongle humor. When you google Playhaven you'll see they fire people arbitrarily and also don't appreciate dongle humor. And you'll see Mr. Dongl

I theorize that the U.S. has never been so close to actual fascism as we were in 2003.

I don't know if I should be upset about this or not. If he's talking about unpaid labor he can go fuck himself with a chain saw.

There, in one single word, is the resolve which the forces of freedom and progress, of tolerance and good will, should take. It is not in the power of one nation, however formidably armed, still less is it in the power of a small group of m

I'm a big dummy but almost every major decision Google has made since Larry Page became CEO has me baffled. The whole idea of squandering the nice vibes they had by forcing everybody into that stupid Facebook knockoff, killing off cool pro

Something about the tone of these things makes my skin crawl a little but I can't help but read them. It's like the space aliens trying to convince everybody to board their ship in "To Serve Man".

Couldn't check comixology because it's down but from what I gather they're charging $3.99 for digital comics? Everybody wants to see the creators get paid but that just seems like bad business to me. Seems like they'd make more going total

See I think it is the end goal and it's going to replace CDs and iTunes really soon. I personally don't like Spotify but Rdio and Mog are incredible. And to have the major labels pulling the strings, which sounds like is happening, is pro

When it catches on with Mom and Dad and the country western Walmart crowd hopefully people will start making money. And all we know is some artists are getting screwed. Warner, Universal, EMI might have made a deal where they get a decen

I think we're almost done with this, finally: with a laptop, an Apogee Quartet and some $1000 ribbon mics (all easily resellable) you can make recordings as good as any studio, magic mixing board or no. And with Spotify, Rdio etc catching

I don't think this is (purely) a publicity stunt, I expect all bars will ban these stupid things because it's asking to be punched in the face. It's a safety thing.

I use it everyday but I can admit they're professional thieves who now appear to be under the protection of possibly the most brutal dictatorships on earth. The only reason they're still around is because everybody uses it and that makes i

The Reddit voting system works fine. On both Reddit and HN I usually learn more from the comments than the actual article, but I still wouldn't want comments in the New York Times. Heavy handed censorship turns rude commenters who should b

That's a tough one, you can't make the internet not creepy. Facebook is actually the best dating site because it disguises it's purpose (and that was it's original purpose) and even then you'll have better luck standing on a street corne

I think House of Cards probably changed the situation somewhat: if Netflix can keep putting out exclusive content of that caliber HBO is going to lose a lot of customers. The week after that show premiered HBO enabled AirPlay on their iPhon

I'd never work for a place that gave me a fucking puzzle to solve. I'd probably smack the interviewer upside the head for wasting my time. The best way to do it is pay the person per task as an independent contractor until you're sure a fu

If he's getting a GED I don't see a problem. I don't really know what Minecraft is or if it's going to be around for long but if he's really making $350,000 I'd tell him to strike while the iron is hot and get out of there. If he's not goi
