How could we be less tolerant than we are now, exactly? (Without human rights violations?) From what I understand, the suicide attempt rate is about fifty percent in that population before transition, so I'd say we're doing a pre

One thing I'd love to see (perhaps in a future iteration?) is a way to have overlapping ranges for redundancy, instead of mirrors. The big benefit to this is when balancing write-heavy workloads, when the slave would not be getting its

Since he's just a contributor, and has not been fired (nor could he be), in this case OP is describing a hypothetical situation in which someone in his office might exhibit similar behaviour and how that would be handled. The situation

In this particular case I notice he not only rejected the pull request, but then (after having the issue explained to him) [ re-submitted ]( https://github.com/joyent/libuv/commit/804d40ee14dc0f82c482d... ) the

I can't find any examples of a pronoun in my personal repository or work repository, but in a few bug submissions I say "she". But if anyone ever challenged me on it, or suggested it was inappropriate, or rejected a pull requ

What we really need here is some kind of blind poll, with results aggregated into two buckets: "Female developers who have worked in the valley." and "Everyone else". I think the HN community might be surprised by the

I say this fully aware that it risks inviting a backlash, but as a female developer I applaud this move. Misogynist assholes are insidious in that they are often hard to uncover, but brutal to any women in the office. All developers are no

A different way of doing something similar, with no code at all: Copy the following into your browser URL bar: "data:text/html, <html contenteditable>" (without quotation marks)

You had me excited there for a minute! But nothing as thin or light as my F3 (though they are prettier).

No: they could've done different . As it is, it's sufficient in battery life but slightly larger and much more expensive. Close, but not worth upgrading for.

Yes, I see that. However it is a few mm thicker, 50% heavier, 400% more expensive and 7 years(!!!!) newer. Imagine what they could do if they were actually optimizing on dumbphone strengths!

Yup, it works just fine in the dark. Never any glare.

I'm sticking with my MOTOFONE F3 (The "Zombie Apocalypse" phone: e-ink display and a 2-week battery life.) It feels like Nokia's missing the mark here though. Once you get below a certain threshold, you hit customers wh

Sorry, I should have been more clear... Is it safe for me, a woman, to visit there with my wife and kids? We've ruled out most of Africa in our globe trotting, but have really missed it.
