Make as many mistakes as you want, it didn't kill anyone (or yourself) and you can only learn from those mistakes. The only person that I know that is always right is my wife.

Still doesn't make them a hater, at least not from the way I would use the term. A "doubter" maybe. By your definition all the Dragons Den are haters, because they say no way? Regardless, i'm sure if you looked through a

And dismissal is different from hating, at least from my understanding of the word used in this context.

Just because someone expresses skepticism that makes them a hater?

Technically true, but we still have the governments to weigh in and try to crush this. Unless they can monetize from BitCoin, they will find a way to kill it - blaming it on funding organized crime and terrorism. "Real world" curr

So this is the issue with the term "dark" and the internet, it just makes it sound seedy and people are up to no good, using tools for illegal for very underground purposes. No where in the article itself does it mention "dar

I don't understand why. Any other company now (presumably) has the right to digitally offer out of print books too. No one else wants to do it, either out of lack of motivation, cost or potential revenue. You can't blame Google fo

Agree with your last point totally. But 30 lines of code, what do you expect? Now imagine jQuery type library with a community of developers and you get... Google Docs :-p

If you remove the SIM you are usually still able to make emergency calls (911, 999, 112), which means it can still connect to cell towers.

A friend of mine has always said that if you want a big f-up in projects then get the government to run it. But if you want something carried out with precision then get the military to do it. Funny thing is, it doesn't seem to matter

Honestly don't know what that guys deal is. It's political correctness gone mad to the point that people can't have a bit of harmless fun without offending someone or other. Sometimes there is no malice whatsoever intended, i

While I agree with your point, and no one is disputing that Nintendo owns all rights to Mario and they may not need more visitors, goodwill is a difficult thing to earn. It's even easier to lose. Time will tell, but hopefully they will

Getting rid of passwords altogether and using fingerprints or face recognition are offered as more drastic solutions. Despite all the recent hoo-ha of how the iPhone 5S took mere days to circumvent the fingerprint reader using some latex

The problem I find is this: http://imgur.com/nEUGq6p I prefer the newsfeed to be sorted by "most recent", a chronological list of the postings. Facebook in it's infinite wisdom keeps deciding that is not the

It would be good if Nintendo worked with him/them to release this on their own site. It would be some good publicity for them.

Johnson also wanted the court to force Hasbro to open its books to determine sales of Super Soaker products from 2006 to 20012. That's a lot of sales they're disputing :-p

I ordered mine just before midnight on 1st November (so 2 days after launch almost). Delivery time was stated as 3-4 weeks, expected delivery was 28th November. It got delivered yesterday! Still haven't opened the box yet cos I am away

I'd also argue that a library developed and used by Stripe is pretty commercial grade too.

Yes, I know that. But competition drives the market and innovation, not just the browser market but every single market in existence. The reason, as I see it, that up to IE6 there was innovation was because there was competition with Netsca

And I suppose you believe the US has single handed saved Europe from WWII, the Enigma machine was captured by the US crew of U-571 and Inglorious Bastards was fact. The fact is reality is much more complex than your simple statement which i

I don't think it was. IE pushed a lot of boundaries back in the day and it was up to others to innovate. Just look at how far we have come since Firefox was released. I understand that MS using it's dominant position was bad, but

They're never really going to make it big just by making it to the top of HN, are they? They seriously need to be looking at a bigger audience base than that... I presume the link has been making the rounds on reddit et al too?

Sure, I feel for the guy and I'm sure they are very passionate people, I don't doubt that. But the problem with "off the cuff" on the internet is that lots of people read it and it's not in internet memory. They&#x
