It was very satisfying seeing your post on HN. Too often, it seems, the bigger picture of the college experience is lost on HN. Heed edw's advice. Go to college. College is as much about the education you get in the classroom as it is about

Hi, thanks to both of you for bringing this to my attention. I don't believe my account was dead, as my last comment received a reply. It may have happened because initially when I edited the comment for a typo, it displayed duplicate comme

Does this happen to anyone? Sometimes, I don't make an error - I didn't know it was an error that existed or that was commen - but upon reading about it, I start making the error. This is similar to when I read about psychological disorders

Hm, this doesn't work for at least the company I work for. Without disclosing too much, he's off by more than half.

I appreciate your point, but typically you want to stay away from things that contain HFCS not simply because HFCS is "bad" for you, (jury is still out on that one), rather, because foods that contain it tend to be very calorie dense. The p

You are exactly right. >Carbs can be bad because carb-rich foods tend to be surprisingly high in calories, but that's about it from a weight loss perspective. This is exactly right also. The reason I avoid white bread, etc. is only beca

I totally agree. We all read the same blogs. We read the same books, take more or less the same classes at schools, watch the same videos, read the same articles. We all have at our disposal cheap, powerful technology. What is our advantage

I don't think this issue should be made about the users and whether or not they need to relax. It's just an issue with your phone. Fix it.

A company's culture matters quite a bit. Where the author makes a giant mistake, however, is in assuming that a company's culture is what it says it is. I've worked at several organizations, and I can tell you that they definitely do have d

I've come to the conclusion that if you strip things down to basic principles, a woman that is looking for a man with a nice income, is really no different than us looking for a girl with big tits or with an interest in a special that. It's

I had a moto droid and now have an htc incredible. The droid is a "google experience" phone and the incredible runs HTC's sense UI. What exactly do you hate about the sense UI? Granted it's only my opinion, but I'm quite fond of the sense U

Do you know of any resources that differentiate the different type of investment styles? I see you mentioned value investors and know there are other types. Finance is one of those worlds that's so big, it's kind of hard to find a place to

Awesome idea. I don't have a place to do it, but I just signed my sister up. Good luck man! Also: try marketing this in particular areas. I live in Berkeley, for example, and know that people here would go Gaga over it in a second.

I got this phone on day one. I've used most smartphones out there, this by far offers the most pleasant experience. If you're looking to get one, I'd say the overall thing that blows me away is the performance in general. I've never used a

I use justin.tv quite a bit. Mostly to watch Laker games since I live in Berkeley atm. This means that next week, I'll be able to catch Laker games on my HTC incredible that I just got yesterday. Sweet. It never ceases to amaze me how a sma

When I read this article, I thought, I bet the comments will have a bunch of people saying, I can see it both ways with the "but I'm way below 160" added for humility. Almost as if I had peaked ahead of time, that is exactly what I found. J
