Can someone explain why/how the cables allegedly kicked off Arab Spring? I get how they pertain to Egypt's former information minister specifically, but wasn't the greater amount of unrest in the region preexisting?

I hope it will be possible to build applications that can take advantage of both interfaces in one executable. Then detect the current context and display accordingly. I like the idea of Metro, but I will like it less if I have to create tw

Since I don't find the idea of yuppies buying yuppies coffees very interesting I decided to mix things up a bit. OP/Sam, I understand that you believe there are worse problems in the world. I have no doubt that you are correct. However, t

On the first of every month there is an automated "Who is hiring?" post to HN. Then people/companies reply in the comments with what they have available. There are always a good number of remote jobs posted as well. Here is a link to the cu
