I don't think you can use arbritrary (made up) information in describing the historical state of an event or situation. It's there in the books; either it happened or it did not. And my point is that both in the past and present, the upper

If taken from the context that the un-technical co-founder will be conceptualizing, if not creating, the product UI itself, then yes, by all means, this person should get out of their comfort zone and gather as much knowledge and learn as m

So basically, they should improve their English and let the developers do the work. Not that I'm saying that once one commits to a non-technical role that they abandon all hope of acquiring technical language skills, but what I am saying is

Or he lands somewhere not on the schedule in the middle of the flight and a lady with her goat gets on and has a ticket for your seat, making you stand next to the toilet for the remainder of the flight. (true story; chicken bus, not plane)

dale, I think you're off to a great start. Keep at it and work hard, as sooner or later you'll develop your ideas into a viable, profitable venture. In the mean time, my sentiments are aligned along with your mom's.

Either Facebook has big pull in Oz or the Queensland police are quite proactive. Either way, they rank 22nd on freedom of the press, not exactly a Scandinavian country.

Keep us posted. I'm always interested to see what people are doing in LBS besides selling out.

He's done it to me a couple of times, but I'll get to that wino in the end. At least he practices some of what he preaches and even though I see little value in his past activities, aside from self-promotion, he's persistent enough to remai

What I'm saying is that the research team pulled their hypothesis out of their collective asses. It's like blaming TV because people want to take Viagra. No mention that the Viagra actually works wonders, in many senses, for someone sufferi

Not sure I'd like to work at a company that requires their interface designers to be lickable. I'm sporting a playoff beard at the moment and don't even find myself lickable, never mind going to work every day worried that someone feels the

If you look at it from the point that anyone who uses a social network, by virtue of ease of use is an expert, and only 5% of social network activity is effective for whatever purpose, then yes, Gary would be correct. Unfortunately, I belie

Yeah, I too am interested in finding out the source of the material along with the claim of it being unbiased. I'm pretty sure that reporting news without bias is impossible.

I hate to be the one point this out, but my drug consumption, aside from beer, has declined over time as my internet connection has speeded up. Prescription medication, or the abuse thereof, has increased because the current pain management

I see no difference, or impact on my life, between this Google/Facebook billionaire's catfight and any Twitter-borne beef between two or more millionaire celebritainers.

I've taken them in Phuket, only because I refuse to take a tuk-tuk. Kind of hairy, but if you take into account the large number of motorcycles/mopeds, you see very little in the way of accidents. I forgot to mention the trikes in the Phili

Pud already admitted to it in his reply. I have no idea why he's ashamed of it now and is trying to pass it off as "web design". Or maybe he's betting that nobody who reads HN remembers the bubble days when Pub made his living off of report

My (joke) proposal for building a web portal for lazy criminal justice types is an insane privacy violation? Only if you could actually get them to find it and actually use it. Maybe I'll put hot, naked chicks on the home page like Pud used

Oh, bullshit. I saw plenty of poon on your site, guy, and I was no member. I understand it may be embarrassing ten years later that you used nudity as a cheap come-on, but don't deny it or refer to it as web design. Please. Thanks for answe

Rereading what I wrote, it's clear that I'm not accusing you of being evil, nor am I speaking for anyone nor am I telling you what the requirements are to be a part of the Ruby community. I simply pointed out that your idea contravenes the

You should ad that including pretty girls showing their vaginas on your webpage does attract an audience. Not sure what the ROI on those Fucked Company t-shirts were, but I'm sure they generated page views.

I think I'm along the same lines as you are. I don't comment on generic blogs posts as they don't represent the continuity of community to me and therefore offer me no benefit in spending my time writing something for a group of strangers.

It pretty much contravenes the current community conventions surrounding Ruby and the sharing of gems. Good luck selling that to a community that was built by people sharing ideas and code while having them peer-reviewed, who are also adama

I've never been lucky in the jobs department on Craigslist, but everything else I've used it for, including my current new apartment, has worked out fine. Granted, there's nothing sexy about it and it can be a slog to work through in order

Sounds like a lot of work. Why doesn't Facebook just build an admin portal so that law enforcement types can register themselves and then just be able to "star" a user/group page on which they'd like information, fill out a short form for d
