The book appears to be very close to release. I've been downloading each release for the past few months and the latest one is great. It was also a nice surprise to see that in addition to PDF the latest update is also available in epub and

Some of us don't like the site being all junked up with phony articles and basically useless for a day. Besides, it's not very funny without any context and the original link was already posted.

This is an obvious April fools prank and the phony Google announcement which links to this site is already on the front page. The announcement also provides more context for the blogspot page. Flagged. http://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=5

If I want to read jokes I'll go to some other site. What HN has to offer that these others don't is intellectually stimulating content and insightful commentary. A post like this contributes nothing.

Looks like some idiotic April fools prank. We don't need that garbage here. Take it over to Slashdot. Flagged.

I haven't found a good open source profiler so I ended up buying a commercial one. The prices are pretty steep, but they are willing to negotiate. A quick email saying it's difficult to justify $499 for a commercial license when I'm just a

The article doesn't say if it's e-ink, but it looks like it could be judging from the picture. The screen has that same grey background. The colors don't look very vibrant. I'm not sure if it's the screen or the colors they chose. Either wa

Bummer. Maybe you should consider rewriting in Erlang... :)

I don't know if it really happened. I don't much care, either. But if I remember correctly, the title of the article in question was 'Some Things Need to Change'. That's hardly linkbait. The linkbait accusation is also a little odd coming f

TechCrunch is awful, but there's no excuse for the spit in the face incident. I don't give a damn what lousy, fabricated article TechCrunch might have published to precipitate that. It's disgusting and totally uncalled for.

It's a nice looking reader, but the article says it's a year away so it's way to early to speculate whether it's a Kindle killer. Right now, it's basically vaporware. Even if it were available right now I don't see how it could be a Kindle

The article presents the problem as mostly organizational and not with the actual software. Maybe the parent comment was a little off topic, but it also serves to further illustrate the problem. The parent commenter was familiar enough with

It would certainly cut down on a lot of garbage. Most of the posts I flag (mostly spam links) are from users who have only been registered for a few minutes. On the other hand, you could have long-time lurkers with no karma that are unable

The PDF conversion is pretty mediocre for some things. It's not really a problem with the conversion service but rather with the PDF format itself. I converted my PDF copy of Programming Clojure. It's mostly readable, but the code examples

At $699, the iRex also costs nearly twice as much as a Kindle and about three times what you can get a PRS505 for. I have no doubt the 8 inch screen is great, but that's a pretty big jump in price-- especially when you consider that the Kin
