This is the third time a link to this article has been posted. My original link was posted two weeks ago. Based on (the lack of) upvotes, rationality does not seem to be a topic of interest to Hacker News readers.

Another alternative is to set up a Limited Liability Company (an LLC). An LLC is simpler and usually less expensive to set up than a corporation, and provides most of the same kinds of liability protection. However, if you expect that your

I think this programming language qualifies as one of the most obscure ever. Google "gema programming language" and you get a total of two references, both in Spanish.

It seems to me that there should be some way for Google to see the original creators content before it goes live to the internet; some sort of pre-publishing protocol. Essentially tell the Googlebot "This is the content I am planning to pub

I have an old Asus EeePC with a 10 inch screen as my ultra-portable machine. When I travel I can throw it into a carryon bag and still have a lot of room for other stuff. I don't mind the small screen that much; my main gripe is the keyboar

It's my understanding that Google expects its employees to work very hard. You say that "We're all happy now with our current life." Would you continue to be happy if you had to work a lot harder than you do now? Would your family continu

Thank you for reminding me. But Readability is not perfect. Less than an hour after posting this comment I came across a site that could be improved by Readability, except for the fact that Readability did not render the page correctly (it

I feel like a nag. This is the second time that I've criticized a blog post for poor readability. Light gray text against a white (or off-white) background is a fundamental usability flaw. It makes the text very hard to read, and detracts f

Does anyone else find small light-grey text against a slightly darker grey background extremely hard to read? I'm guessing there may be some useful information in there somewhere, but I just can't see it (literally).

My high school adviser told me I'd never get into UCSD. Not only did I get in, but I graduated with honors. Never listen to people who tell you what you can't do.

I believe a better pricing model in many cases is to offer your product as a monthly subscription with discounts for longer subscriptions, e.g. $5 per month, $10 per quarter, $30 per year. The drawbacks to this model are that managing subsc

Your poll is broken. I read my first programming book (a programmed instruction text on machine programming) in the mid-60s. This was neither before the 60s nor in the 70s.
