Why is the price guaranteed to increase forever (or at least until it reaches 1200)?

Triple is an odd figure. I know that air resistance at low speeds is typically modeled as a power between 1 and 2. How do we wind up with the factor of 3?

Film critics almost never do what online pseudonymous posters do; invariably, in every thread on HN, the top comment shits on the article. Film critics love film- they try to get others to go watch the films they love (or at least read the

I assume this is an unironic post? Did you not realize you did the exact thing the article criticizes (for the good of society).

WebRTC is a monster to implement (and a moving standard at that). It will be quite some time before enough OSS software exists to really replace skype. Besides, it is really hard to displace social networks with new ones, particularly whe

Protocols usually come from successful clients, not the other way around, but you are free to try. When you do, you can be assured that: "Yet another messaging protocol is what we need said nobody ever" will be the top comment.

I'd really like to read this story, although I'd envision the ending closer to Animal Farm than The Metamorphosis. After all, I don't think a distributed, persistent messaging service is quite as shameful/unclean and use

The problem is that ISPs don't need disruption- local politics does. As hard as starting a new bank or writing a new OS is, who wants to sign up for disrupting every local and state government in the country and incur the cost of la

React JS is a front end framework that understands how to render stuff (html) in real time reactively to changes in state. React does magic with the shadow DOM, the actual DOM, and diffs in order to minimize reflows and boilerplate. Pro

I disagree on both fronts. Languages should provide primitive constructs and allow libraries and frameworks to sort out the rest. It is nearly impossible to change a language after the fact, but libraries are free to come and go. The bane

CL isn't successful because of its terrible UI- it is simply a social network that happened to have capture the largest slice of the market.

You're comment is nonsensical. Women compose 12% of recent CS graduates. Even if all of these women are as good as the top quarter of men, they would still be outnumbered nearly 2 to 1 for a given job. If we wanted to reach equali

You are being downvoted because you are trivializing someone's problem. More accurately, you claim isolation can't exist for white people. Yes, other people have worse problems, but this doesn't make OP's problems disapp

It is true that you will spend proportionally more on housing here. It is also most likely true that your total savings will be higher here. EG, you could save 50K$/year in the valley whereas you could only save 20k$ a year working i

Regulator expenses in building houses may only be 20-40% of the cost, but this isn't true of the price! In healthy markets, houses are priced close to the cost of construction. In SF (in the 90s), house prices were over 140% the cost

You only read bad news; the reason to move here is because the bay is the hub of the both entrepreneurship and tech in the US. Having said that, rent is expensive but salaries are more or less commensurate.

Nope, you have just incentivized prosecutors to release guilty defendants to fix the numbers.

There is no elephant in the room. Vim will not make you more productive, period. Vim unequivocally takes the fewest keystrokes to effect changes, but its certainly not the fastest editor. At Floobits, we sometimes have 3 devs working on

Your proposed algorithm is a particularly poor solution in terms of correctness if nothing else. For text, DMP performs quite well- patches can typically be applied in arbitrary order with the same result. For complex data formats, you ve

This is true. You'd have to look for a script tag with src of https://checkout.stripe.com/checkout.js . Alternatively, you could try to follow the onclick handler for the button (Event Listeners in Chrome).

If the form is POSTed directly to stripe (which is the recommended usage), your info is never seen by a third party. The site in question would only potentially store a token. Are you sure this wasn't the case?

May I ask where you are from? Free speech - bigoted, hateful, maybe untrue, or otherwise, is perhaps the one enduring (sacred) tenet of American society.
