Oh I love GitS, I just think it's the only anime that gets discussed in these circles, while others go unnoticed. Another recommendation (though completely unrelated to the discussion) is Berserk, quite possibly the best anime/man

To me, it means the empowerment of a solo developer through (intelligent) use of modern methods, hardware and software tools to achieve that which required a team of about 10-20 in the past. In other words, the distillation of the last 50 y

I wish Serial Experiments Lain got as much recognition and discussion around it as GitS. SE:L seems to have more to do with being an actual hacker.

Only just noticed this, I guess if you check your comments you can pick this up at some point. Best advice is do it early, use your usual job sites (Monster etc.). Resources will depend on your country but the only real administrative hurdl

If we're having a thread on nutrition, I want to ask HN about Kefir (fermented milk/yogurt from Russia/East Europe), whether they have tried it, and why there isn't more interest in it considering it has a lot of health

This has happened enough times that there really needs to be some kind of process in place to verify what the fuck is actually going on at the 'swatted' address. It is pathetically stupid and laughable that the same police force c

This doesn't get said enough and is why we need better consumer protection laws, like the ones that the EU has implemented or seeks to. Publishers can't have it both ways. The way gamers are treated has been embarrassingly bad for

I'm one of the people who asked for less NIH in Ubuntu in the recent thread https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=14002821 but I didn't think they would take it this far. Jokes aside, it's sad that Unity won&#

The way I deal with it is not to put all my eggs in one basket. For instance, don't link your online accounts to one email, have one separate email address just for those. And try to use a different email provider to the company who ma
