You know what really scares me about this? I think a lot of Americans would be fine with this kind of internet. Why should their Facebook and Yahoo! news be slower just because transfire and kevando want access to every single possible thin

I'm not sure. Google is very aware that 100% of their userbase (and revenue) are one click away from using another search engine. If this decision makes it more difficult for a start up to create a better way for people to search the i

While 2048 certainly cloned threes, I agree with others that threes benefited more with the proliferation of 2048. On that note, I also think it's more interesting to discuss WHY 2048 spread so far and so quickly. Yeah, it's super

I'm happy to see these are the priorities. To emphasize comments > submissions, my HN app for android opens all articles directly to the comments. it takes 2 clicks to see the submitted link.

This is so true and also helps explain how echo chambers develop. I always try to change my perspective on something big at least once a month. Last month I disabled flash and all my Chrome extensions. Holy cow, the default internet is weir

Yeah, I'm curious what happened? I had a client have something like this happen. No stolen code, but someone copied her site.

This also helps you gain perspective. Once you work for yourself, you may hear yourself spitting bullshit, creating bogus plans, not closing deals, making short-sighted decisions, implementing poor management practices, pivoting too often,

One other important take away from MoD, Carmack gives zero fucks about what he says publicly. I'm excited to hear his take on this whole deal, especially since I imagine it comes as a bit of a shock to most of the Oculus team.

I agree this is mostly a PR article, but it does remind me that I often think only in terms of the USA. When the world adds 1bn new smart phone users, it's going to be an INCREDIBLE improvement to their life and before the first thing

I can't over emphasize the importance of this message!!!!!!!!!!!! After college, I worked for a 'prestigious' consulting firm and found immediate success in the perspective of my peers. Truthfully, I enjoyed it. That feeling

This reminds me of the team best advice someone ever gave me. "People. Process. Technology. In that order."

It's different in the sense their decisions that lead to becoming a'conglomerate' adhere to their mission. 3bn for Nest doesn't really help organize the world's data.

PRETTY good? One time on multi-player I was decimated to a single peon and buried my way into a nook in the forest and rebuilt a mighty army and was ultimately defeated. Damnit, I was depressed after that one..

Unlike those other companies, Facebook has a clear vision: Connect the world. If you listen to Mark Zuckerberg talk about that vision, you see that facebook.com is just a part of the over arching goal. It's really cool to see such conv

This is the argument I find confusing...You ask Facebook to curate your news feed and then get upset when they curate it.

And from there, you have the fallacy of this argument. This decreases the quality of your experience on Facebook. With the million other options and networks, why on earth would Facebook purposefully lower the quality of their product in or

The trouble is this is 100% from the content creator's perspective. From the user perspective, this ends up working out quite well.

The nerd in me is curious about factors that lead to higher scores. With so many data points, I'd love to see how android vs iphone users scored and if the color of flappy (or "time of day") had any impact on your score. Or h

This could easily be because the redirected domain allows them to provide og:image meta data specifically tailored for the sites.

Thanks, but I already frequently revisit my most popular posts to bask in the glory days of old. Is Facebook not keeping track when I creep myself?
