Also, most successful music today is made by songwrites hired for the job. By this I mean 'commercial' artists such as Rihanna, Lady Gaga and Beyonce-like ones songwriters. OP sees this too black and white. With passion comes devotion, with

Why not have downvotes too? If you ask me, upvotes-only (as here on HN) works great if post get hidden when x time goes by. But AFAIK links "value" will not devalue over time on TYTC and therefore the early submissions will get ahead by far

I've had an idea about remote backup for a long time. To pay ~50usd/month isn't that much of course, but very soon buying a large hard drive pays off. The problem with a local hard drive is that it's local, and if your house burns down, the

Well, it's just like jwz's rant on FF vs Safari. Mail.app is not as good, no doubt about it. It lacks almost everything a mail client should be able to do. But it works, does it's job quickly and easily and then is out of my way. I wish Thu

I know it's overkill for a browser extension, but wouldnt this be easily solved by having built-in bittorrent for updates? The publisher would always be seeding the latest version, and the clients would connect maybe every other day. It wou
