Not necessarily miserable, they might be just good marketers creating an online audience for themselves to advance their careers or feed their egos. Fun stories about fun lives (fictitious or real) are something people use for entertainment

I've heard many people saying that "Perl doesn't scale" - "90% of the successful startups run RoR, why wouldn't you?" - "If you use Perl and you get web scale you'll have many problems" I don't give at all credibility to such comments, but

There are lots of alternatives to the cases you present. In general, wanting to make as much money as you can get is not, per se, evil or immoral.

So, two questions: 1.- How do those companies get the best of the best? 2.- Are you sure it's talent and not process? Where you can't fail, you usually have even the smallest change specified in thousands of pages and reviewed by many peopl

The key point is who defines what "opportunity" is and, most importantly, why. There are opportunities to build new features, or opportunities to fix what's broken. Do you really think that the guys as Apple/Google that pull all-nigh

I have no clue about serious networking, so I have to ask: why would you have your public, routable addresses unadvertised? What's the benefit of using them instead of a 10.0.0.0/8?

It only started to "seem" that way in 2008 or so when Google-- a large corporation that wants to monopolize a segment of the market- started a propaganda campaign against Apple to try and rationalize ripping off the iPhone wit

I'm not opposed to what you say, the big problem I expect you agree with is mixing (and thus equating) the "urinators" with the rapists.

Amazing how timing (and luck?) matters on whether a submission gets to the top or not. http://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=4487221 Also of note: the algorithm to check URL was already submitted is easily fooled.

I did some light research about the subject after I stopped laughing and crying. It seems like it depends on the state, there are 13 states that have the "public urination leads to sex offense" regulation. Of those only 2 states have the "n

There is a gap between native and the web, but it will not last long (have high hopes on FF OS) and it is currently narrow enough not to matter in many applications. Haven't dug deep enough in the code to know if Twitter is one of the apps

Right, s/terrorist/victim/. FTR, I'm not affirming this actually is a plot by FBI to send fake updates to everyone. Just saying the theory is not as far fetched as Marco implied, either targeting terrorists or everybody.

The footnote theory that I quote below doesn't sound that far fetched to me, especially after knowing about Stuxnet. I don't know if the FBI is involved, but the theory is not that wacky for an FBI hack. For instance, I can’t figure out
