You missed the point of the article entirely. Let's say you knew of Aaron's plight. Would this news have changed your life for the better by you getting this knowledge the day it happened?

Imagine a child who gets bullied in school regularly eventually can't take it anymore and kills themselves. Are you really so callous as to say, "there's nobody to blame here but the child"

Somehow I don't think staging a rally for bradely manning, holocaust victims, abused animals, and everyone who has ever been disenfranchised is the answer. I get your sentiment, but if you start trying to lump too many issues together, your

If we relied more on electricity than fossil fuels, you know renewable energy would continue to grow even more than it already is. This is not something to just write off for no reason. Also, not everyone lives in America. 100% of electri

You can actually do all of those things with cash. It's not conventional, but people do make all of those purchases with cash.

You're only focusing on one side of the argument. Less young people means a small amount of young people paying for lots of older people, which is a large financial burden on the people able to work. (as well as many other factors) Also, G

I'm guessing you made this account because you know how stupid your ideas are. It's a free service. People who offer free services owe you nothing. Your sense of entitlement is sorely misplaced. Google has to pay Microsoft actual money fo

You might be entertained to know that a peer-reviewed journal went as far as to accept a generated paper for publication. http://thatsmathematics.com/blog/archives/102

My problem with the ribbon is that many options have just disappeared. With menus, at least you could dig through the menus to find what you're looking for. With the ribbon, you're forced to rely on google to figure out how to use your app

I think he's speaking more to the way the system is setup in the US. I believe every country has a system such as you describe. In my country, everyone has an ID number, much like a social security number. It is tied to everything, and is

With the amount of effort that the executive branch took in order to get this legislation, even going as far as attempting to invoke the states secret privilege [1], I wonder what sort of public outcry it would take to actually get this unc

Since they're the ones that control the taxis, I don't see why they wouldn't have a say in the matter.

I do this all the time. I estimate the cost of a cab fare in my head, then I flag down a livery car and offer them less than what a cab would cost. Sometimes I have to barter a little if I'm shooting too low, but I'm rarely turned down. It'

Yes, they have a mobile app, it's called "phone". You call them, give them an address and a time, it takes less than a minute. I've never had one be late, and I can imagine a million better things to do with your time than watching a dot mo

It's very simple. You produce evidence or proof that two things are related. Living in the same house as a medical doctor does not make me a medical doctor, nor does it make modern medicine responsible for my actions.

No, please read. There are no conclusions to be drawn here. Just because someone does something stupid does not mean anything. There is no evidence that this woman ever studied homeopathy, or that this whole wet towel thing is even a treat

Terrible article. My dad is a medical doctor. Because I spent a large amount of my life living in the same house as him does not make me a medical doctor. If I tried to treat someone who was suffering from pneumonia, and they died because o

I've never seen a full laptop that didn't have a PgUp/PgDn that wasn't a Mac. Some netbooks do have these keys removed, but certainly not "most" laptops.

This is not HN related at all (unless you count the guy's shameless promotion of his startup) Also the math is way off, and exaggerated to the highest possible degree.
