   Realize that aesthetics are largely subjective. I personally think the Thinkpad line looks a hell of a lot BETTER than the rounded corner/aluminum macbooks.

   I've been thinking we're on the cusp of what I'm just going to call "Web 3.0" even though that term looks stupid to me now so I apologize to me browsing my history in a couple of months (sorry). The big social media darlings have gone b

   Sorry, not sure if you're talking about grabbing the second-hand mini when the time comes or talking about my laptop purchase. In both cases it's not an issue of price it's an issue of Apple doesn't deserve my money and any transactions tha

   I really think that a very simple gradient or a 1 pixel wide white/black(depending on background) border around the edges of all interactable elements would go a long long way to fixing this issue without breaking up the UI too much, it m

   Glad I got a Lenovo. I was mulling over getting a macbook for the longest time since I wanted the option to develop iPhone apps. After thinking it over I realized that I was disgusted with Apple's practices and didn't want to support them b

   I completely agree with your "just start coding" approach. When I decided I wanted to learn Python I used it to scratch my own itch (nerd alert: I wrote a MSPA update notifier for linux). In the process I learned some basic python (includin

    I couldn't design a site like Hacker News, not in my wildest dreams. It's the essence of a site with everything supliferous taken away and that takes talent that I just don't have. It's less about "looking nice" and more about "ok can peopl

    You are aware that there are lots of anthropology studies on americans living in the United States right? It's just a field of study.

    Does anyone know of any other good Geek/Nerd/Internet Ethnology/History books? I find myself very interested in the subject lately.

    I saw that this interview was written about a woman and I knew comments like those were coming. HN is greatly disappointing to me sometimes :(

    I think it's neat. Nerds/Geeks/Hackers/etc are generally a solitary lot and even in groups the group is very inward focused so it's nice to have an outside opinion. edit : I especially like >There’s a whole chapter on joking, humor and
