The issue comes down to the legal and moral definition of consent. How old must a child be until they are wholly fit to make their own decisions? How do you define public policy around this, written to incorporate the whole of the public an

Pretty quick, eh?

"Once a startup, always a startup" is the rule of the day these days. Makes me wonder how long HP would be considered a startup if they were born today.

Does that make this less important...? Would you like a timestamp?

Or, that anyone hiring or interviewing you (recruiter or developer) will actually evaluate your work beyond that you have a couple repos with more than a couple files in them.

IANAL, but in general a business in the US can deny service to anyone as long as they are not in violation of very specific civil rights protections.

Looking at it more, it seems pretty easy, but perhaps consider that your audience might only have a cursory knowledge of their Graphite implementation. Maybe point to a couple of the important fields in dashboards.js, like graphite_url an

Looks great! We've been having a rough time keeping our homegrown dashboard stable. My only suggestion so far is to build out the configuration/installation docs in the README.md, 'see dashboard.js' isn't very helpful.

At the risk of offending the rah-rah YC back-patting... the entire Tech section is full of people who run or founded companies. Those all could fall into the Media, Social, or Marketing sections. It just seems like they're piling all the bi

It's pretty amazing how few California, or even Bay Area, natives there are working in tech in that same area. People have always flocked here for jobs and money, but the scale is just so much larger this boom. It's pretty shocking when you

It's not a temporary thing, and in fact had been going on for a few years now. We are currently in the phase of blatant link bait self posted blogs gaming the front page. Prior to this tend for the past year or so, there was the "rah-rah lo

Yes, though the problem they likely saw was he virtually has no product, business plan, nor seems interested in selling it as much as himself. Its a trope you see here in the post mortem after every YC season selection. "I hacked the proces

Has this post been moderated away? I'm not seeing it anywhere, even 5+ pages deep. If so... is that really necessary; is someone threatened or offended? This is a real article with just as valuable a point as all the self-posted 300-word bl

But does it provide multitouch comparable to OS X in execution and function? If so, I'd switch tomorrow.

Sorry but there is a difference between the two out there in the real world.

Chill out. This has nothing to do with skilled/unskilled, illegal/legal. Its about reform for all of immigration policy, not just those who can already make a living for themselves anywhere. Plus, and I hate to say it, but there's very clea

THIS. This absolutely works. To clarify, copy-paste this script in the address bar of the browser when you are on your cart's page. Don't forget to add javascript: in front of the one-liner. This sort of hacking is why no one else can o

> the fundamental rule of startups: ideas & strategies are worthless, execution is everything. Oh boy... I agree with the whole "idea-guys are hacks" thing but this phrasing is no less alarming. Don't worry about the product, we c

Well, there are certainly reasons to believe it might be an Interpol/FBI trap. :)

Unfortunately, Sublime's vintage-mode is very deficient in even the intermediate level Vim bindings. I'll fire it up every week or so, frown after a few minutes, and go back to MacVim.

US public policy is an incredibly important factor to the global technical industry; this includes arguably most 'hackers.' That cannot be denied.

Its no simpler now than it used to be. People have been saying that (and citing the whole 14yo trope) since the 80's. It does require skill, even if you're just using scripts. What would give them more technical credibility in you eyes? I

Let's be honest here, speed isn't as fast as WiFi all the time. It's as fast as WiFi, with much higher latency, in the times you're within good range of the proper cell tower. Sorry, but its not the same as WiFi when you're sitting on the c
