Yep, you'll be better off, but these people should have given you a severance package and if I were in their position, I would have offered to help you find a job.

Pinterest is as good an execution of bookmarking (even if not thought about this way) as I've seen. What sets it apart is that content is very visual, organized by content and boards (directories) and easily discoverable. I visited del

That's the first thing that came to mind and I couldn't have said it better. I want to use facetime/skype with family/close friends, but it's just so awkward and cumbersome to get on a call.

This is why I like drinking water a lot. It forces me to get up away from my desk to fill my glass, and then to go to the bathroom. I've had lots of cases where I found better solutions in front of a urinal (forgive the imagery) than i

This kind of problem is really fascinating to me. On the one hand, we're all pretty ambitious and would love to do more and that can cause one to sleep less. On the other hand, the more jam packed your schedule the easier it is to beco

I'm working on an app that may help you. I wrote a bit about my experience here: https://medium.com/better-humans/50c835e15244 Exercise is definitely going to help and to avoid the difficulty in scheduling it, sch

Have you countered some of the debt with exercise? I recommend a brisk, highly intense workout (e.g., the scientific 7-minute workout) as soon as you wake up. It will help you get over cortisol levels and give you a nice rush of endorphins,

Right. I can't help to think, also, that not long ago Houston was one of several important CEOs who met with Obama over the NSA's warrantless wiretapping. It's important to look out after your stakeholders, but am really in a

I also appreciate the question. As a follow-up: for anyone that can't afford going, what are some other side events you'd all recommend attending during/after WWDC?

Anyone that wants to hack this system of corruption, should join Lawrence Lessig (Aaron Swartz)'s cause: http://www.nhrebellion.org/

Well, it hadn't really occurred to me that it could be used for localization exactly, just for building an adhoc communication channel. :) The one problem is that batteries still haven't caught up. We need easily deployable, emerg

I was not. Thanks! Drones, a la Facebook, might also be a solution under severely damaged infrastructure, it occurs to me now.

I lived in LA for 7 years and experienced a few 3.0+s on older four-floor or so apartment complexes. Now I'm living ~7 miles away from a fault in the bay area. Always have water and supplies. And I hope ad-hoc/mesh wireless networ

Yes and no. I've certainly reduced what Lessig states to what I found the most fitting way to summarize the problem he describes, but the corruption in the system really comes down to that as he so clearly explains towards the end of t

I think you should reconsider watching the video. Don't support elections in the first place? So continue business as usual? I am not sure I understood correctly, but your solution IS the non-solution we're practicing today. It&#x

Holy shit! How does this not have thousands of upvotes? It's a masterful presentation -- the likes of which I haven't seen before. I reckon I got a similar feeling that so many did when they heard MLK speak. If you read about lead

I believe the answer to that question is yes. I've raved about Spark many times on HN before. We're using it and absolutely love it. Not sure why the author thinks there's no built-in support for iterations. The support is th

FWIW, The Information's piece definitely crossed the "too indignation-inducing to be true" threshold for me. And I for one, would enjoy an essay about such topic as it would be very relevant to the HN community that is often

Start on the far end and pull the sheets towards you. That is, if your bed is next to a wall or two (as usual), start with the corners next to it, this way you never have to kneel over the sheets. If possible you can also move the bed and

Though this will tie you onto a different platform at least initially, have you considered integrating with vine/instagram in any way? Could be a good way to acquire more users. Best of luck helping people achieve more.

To reduce technology to gadgets (even if just hyperbolically) is just wrong and condescending. Good luck solving the political problems of our day without technology to help. I don't think anyone is arguing that technology alone will s

Completely agree here. This isn't about providing a sense of security as much as making it more difficult for co-workers or even friends to steal each other's passwords. Just because I forgot to lock the door of my house, doesn&#x

Flagged and others should, also. I don't think we need to feed TC any more clicks for worthless content. Edit: if you need any more evidence to flag it, just witness the quality of the comments this "article" inspired.

I'm genuinely curious: why don't you want to be recorded at malls et al? What's the difference between such surveillance and a security guard wondering around looking for suspicious activity and/or protecting shoppers&#x

When I first learned about Spark, I knew this team would go on to build great things and they've gone beyond my expectations all the while being very friendly and supportive of the community. Among the things I love most about the Spar
