I guess the problem is ventilation. Warm air always goes up, and I guess arctic explorers have a sort of an opening at the top of the tents, like a chimney, to let the gas out. Otherwise they'd die just as much (also, in subzero temps

Somebody said the next thing will be for Google to depreciate SMTP. This makes me think they are on a good way to it.

Pandemics are overhyped. In the recent years we had 2 "pandemic" strains of flu, both of which as it turned out, were greatly exaggerated for the benefit of the pharma companies. The truth is, thousands more people die of know diseases ever

A sign of times. In the end the majority will be geeks like us. But if Software Testers can be hot on Billboard, there's hope for the rest of us ;) PS. Wanz retweeted link to this HN. Universe bless the Internet.

I like such posts for bringing up the fact that you have to follow your path to be happy, not other's footsteps or society rules. On the other hand, some imbeciles think of such posts as an argument against education, and that's just a stra

Good point, but on the other hand rich people have a weird habit of trying to get even richer. I'm not saying it's wrong btw.

Ballmer probably knows it's his last executive position he'll ever get in this industry. So he's squeezing as much out of it as he can. Or he's just a fanboy of the "old Microsoft."

It looks good and should work well for businesses. Clearly Facebook inspired, but that's not a bad thing. Also, Twitter was the only major network without cover images (although they had background images).

I find all these stories weird, since on the day of the keynote I went to check buying options for Kindle Fire and there was definitely a way to buy it without "special offers", at $15-20 more the original price. What gives?
