I'm sitting here, toiling away on HN, happy in the fact that I'd seen it all. Then I read your comment. You couldn't possibly be using Wikipedia as a justification for sexual assault, could you?

There is a huge disconnect between the "justice" system and technology which needs to end. You've seen it before if you're in IT, that glazed eyes look when explaining why their Word document is missing… Anyone with jud

SOPA was easy to turn against and I would argue, didn't cost anything to oppose. Fighting the NSA on warrantless wiretaps is a completely different animal in that there will be real money involved in fighting it. Potentially millio

It's my understanding that taking Melatonin supplements will mess up your bodies natural ability to make it's own Melatonin (as will taking a lot of supplements). You are far better off trying to get your body to produce Melatoni

Maybe we need to come up with a different word all together. I propose macromanager Micromanager has a negative connotation for good reason. Nobody wants to be micromanaged. Nobody wants someone managing the minutiae of their everyday

Obviously it's my opinion and to me, it's a crock of shit. Do I really need to spell out my specific reason? OP is making sweeping generalizations, based on pseudo-scientific bullshit, to justify his/her narrow view of th

What a crock of shit. If you're going to use the thinnest of lines to draw the shittiest of conclusions to justify your narrow view of the world, you're gonna have a bad time.

There are a multitude of things that are expensive. You've hit upon one of the major ones. Unfortunately, you'll have to crunch the numbers if you wish to have children. It may be in your best financial interest for one of you t

As a 46 year old, white male with almost 20 years of IT experience, what I hear a lot of these startups saying is, "We don't really give a shit about you, your life or your time. We want to suck out a decades worth of input in 2-

Could it be that we've all missed the point entirely? Maybe, just maybe, Paypal was under duress from the Feds to cancel their Paypal account because they're afraid of what Mailpile would have accomplished?

Microsoft's licensing schemes are riddles, wrapped in enigma's and covered with shit. I'm actually surprised that Windows doesn't have In App Purchases. You want to search? It's only 2.99! You want the desktop?

I'm guessing the CEOs don't generally make announcements like this, unless a successor is already lined up. 12 months is probably just a guideline for transitioning to the new CEO.

I would argue that Gruber is wrong. Microsoft would have made money during it's Ballmer years, regardless of who was at the helm. When Gates left, MS was a Katamari ball rolling down hill, catching all the money in it's path.
