   And is this because it will make you rich with your bitcoin stash, or because somehow "Society Needs This" and you'll just happen to get rich while being so magnanimous. It's a new paradigm, I know.

   Congrats. I've been reading for 10 years! Atwood & Spolsky have always been great reading, and mainly because they push back on fads without being to over the top, don't oversimplify, and don't pretend to have the one-tru

   Because Wall Street is the intelligence tax on all Americans. Every task, even a wink, requires up front fees and a percentage off the top. The social contract states, give us your money, and we will share our tax on the stupid with you.

   You think a billion dollar, cash-rich company known for software excellence would understand testing and hardening? A company known for draconic quality assurance, would skimp? Silly me. HN must be right.

   Don't scare the geeks of HN. They have well-tuned, waffle-brains with syrup-tight barriers. Suggesting there is a world with blurry boundaries scares them.

   And Wordpress is/was going to try the same thing with some official ancient stable/always-security-patched release. I don't follow the WP world anymore. It was a noble thought back then, I just wonder if anyone actually runs

   It's Wacom. They announced it on their site. I could try it, but at this point I'm not up for the trials and tribulation of trying mavericks and having to revert.

    My $2700 Cintiq is 7 years old and works dandy, but Wacom will not be making Maverick drivers -- ever. So I won't be upgrading ever. My TV is 10 years old and working. We have a 15 year old TV in the office. My 2001 ibook is going stro

    We should just be happy HN has moved beyond Flappy Bird. Now we're back to watching The Social Network movie again, and talking about how pathetic $400K is over $18 lattes.

    For some reason I'm running into more and more symfony-based projects. I'd like to see that as a starter.

    I think you should make your 4th package "Enterprise" rather than "Business" -- people spending that kind of money don't like to associate with 'business' folks.

    You don't know what fiat actually means. Fiat means, in a short and sweet manner, the government can force you to use it. No one can make you use bitcoin. If they do it is called 'blackmail'.

    Premise is silly. You want deadline-based newspaper designers to WAIT until all the stories and headlines are done - then design the paper. And get a paper out? I take it you internet junkies know nothing of the once enormous scope of journ

    Let me tell you about vested interest, rent-seeking, and regulatory capture. Three things that should be taught in elementary school, but never will be, because public education has all three in spades as well.

    Personally, I'm happy VC screens keep them in their bubbles. Unfortunately, the rest of the world has their own screens and their own bubbles, too.

    This is exactly the formerly revolutionary model of SV 1960s: equity stake for engineers! The East Coast model of private bank investment owning all of a company is over (for 50 years now).
