Having toll lanes don't help with anything. Look at what the 10 freeway don't rush hour. Equally clogged. No form of public transit is going to help with the traffic, it's only going to give people an alternative to avoid tra

Legible is subjective. I personally find the font and spacing quite difficult to read actually. Conceptually reminds me of an old writing platform I used to use called QuietWrite. Loved it while it lasted.

The Safari API is severely lacking relative to Chrome/Firefox. It would be great if Apple would spend some time getting Safari up to parity so devs can create a more consistent user experience for their browser.

On top of not opening up the ecosystem so that it can expand it's crazy how some companies don't even support eSports. Take for example Nintendo and how they handled EVO last year. They wanted to promote Sm4sh and so they tried to

Kind of a tangent point but I really wonder how our society intends to solve the problem of automation replacing high paying skilled workers. Is education and relocation the only answer?

3DTV has always been too much work for the consumer. You have to pay the big ticket price of getting a 3DTV. Then you've got to get a pair of glasses for each viewer. What if you're one pair short? Plans ruined? Then you've g

Investors are giving Uber a near infinite bankroll so it's hard to say that they'll be allowed to fail. I was in Southeast Asia recently and it's insane how cheap Uber is. It almost doesn't make sense to take any other f

Yeah, personally I would be really upset if my fellow shareholders voted for a poor direction for the company. So, if the vision and direction of a company's leaders continue to do well for the company, I'd totally be on board inv

I think it would be valuable to you to give HN a little more insight to your particular set of skills and your purpose. I say this because I personally have dived head first into using a CSS framework without first fully understanding a few

Twitter comparisons aside (what's the point?), anyone know what could be causing the surge in pricing for Bitcoin? It was off my radar for a while and all of a sudden it's at $800+.

Everyone has something that works really well for them. It's nice to have an employer that respects that. Personally, I find a lot of value in putting a face on everyone in my team. To me, it's a lot easier to work through a probl

I don't see it happening any time soon if at all. Companies spend an insane amount of money advertising on Facebook platforms. If you're at all familiar with how companies buy ads in digital marketing, you'll realize how Face

So Tesla is doing this thing where they're running in the background and logging data of decisions that they would make vs. what actually happens. I'm wondering if Uber did the same thing at all. Because at the moment, it sure doe

I disagree. For the form factor this is the perfect game. If you wanted to play a Mario game on a portable device, you can invest in a 3DS. But for mobile games, these controls are perfect and tight. I've played dozens of games on my i

Now that your sarcasm has ended, if you give it a shot, it actually plays just like any of the DS versions but w/ auto run. It's definitely much more than just a runner. The level design is very polished too.

It's not just a runner game though. I think calling it Super Mario "Run" gives it the stigma of other run games that copy Temple Run. But, it's more akin to Rayman.

It's always been bad. Navigating through all of their hardware menus is such a pain. Compare downloading games and updates on a Wii U or 3DS vs. a PS4. It's like navigating an ATM machine. But I tolerate it 'cause their games

Have you dropped the $9.99 yet? I actually felt rewarded by the ramp up in difficulty. If you've only gone through the 1st 3 levels, you've only just played the demo. Have you tried collecting up to the black coins?

While my first order was close to a year ago, what I have to say about this and all the other food delivery services (Postmates, UberEats, Grubhub) is that I typically have a hard time meeting delivery minimums or straight up find the deliv

It depends. If you're just starting out, it could make sense to move to the Bay Area to work for a big name company that will teach you a lot and make you look better on paper. You'll even get a higher salary to use as slight leve

As a fellow software developer, you do bring up a good point and I agree with you, but I think he's referring to more blue collar jobs. We have white collar jobs and are pretty well off. You have a job and own a home which is far more

Appreciate the article, but this is relatively dated information. While I can see that many enjoyed the article, many have also been working in ES6 for over a year now. If you're ready to join, I highly suggest everyone make their way
