The solution: just use fucking books . Yes, they're heavy and a pain to drag around, but do you seriously have a better idea? They're infinitely versatile and aren't scared of getting tossed around. iPads as an educational t

I hate these types of articles because they bring out the worst of HN. Accusations of fanboys and vitriol over both sides are spewed and incomprehensible arguments rule. It's like Slashdot all over again.

I hate when people equate being at the helm of a majestic craft to being a bus driver. There's far, FAR more akin to sailing than driving when you fly aircraft. Fluid dynamics are very similar, regardless of whether it's water or

A Red Hat system was running more code for GNOME/KDE than either coreutils or Linux. Should we call it GNOME/GNU/Linux? Probably, because GNOME was designed from the beginning to be a usable desktop for users. There is a GNU,

Well, GNU has traditionally been awful at systems programming. They worked for more than a decade on the HURD kernel even after gcc and coreutils were long completed. Eventually, Linus got tired of waiting and created his own operating syst

On-Topic: Anything that good hackers would find interesting. That includes more than hacking and startups. If you had to reduce it to a sentence, the answer might be: anything that gratifies one's intellectual curiosity.

Why is this even significant? The OP's logic makes no sense. He claims that gold isn't for mindless fanboys who want the new thing because it's new, but then claims that gold is for mindless fanboys who want the new thing bec

Linus' response: We'll see. I'm cautiously optimistic that this is a real shift in how Nvidia perceives Linux. The actual docs released so far are fairly limited, and in themselves they wouldn't be a big thin

He said Apple would continue to sell trucks and cars, but he expects the cars to cannibalize the truck market. There's no use in a truck with a bed cover that's locked into place and unremovable. There's equally no use in a

This is false and misleading. ThinkPads, while the new ones aren't too much to my taste, are better-constructed, more fully-featured, and more understated than MacBooks. On the AIO side, there are plenty of desktops from Dell and Lenov

First of all, this is an international phone. Second. there are TWO phones. It's likely that sales figures are very similar to last year's marked-down 4S and 5 sales combined, but if you count the delayed international launch last

Spot-on. I never learned through the explanations in K&R; I just did the code examples and analyzed deeply stuff I didn't understand. Really, most of programming is really easy. The boring stuff is reading library documentation and

It's not really "expired" food. The sell-by date is just an indicator of when the item begins to go slightly stale. In the case of foodstuffs like fruit and milk, there are expiry dates and it's best NOT to eat past th

A child will not get shot or kidnapped for not having a cell phone, and those who will ostracize your child because of the technology they don't have don't deserve to be your kid's friend anyhow. One could say that there is

Why? The problem isn't with the phones. The Z10 and Q10 are fantastic and BB10 is probably the best business-centric OS ever written. The problem is that the applications are just not there, and that people associate BlackBerry with re

I'm not sure how this is significant. Many of Apple's core technologies and hardware are produced by Samsung or with Samsung's help, e.g. Retina display for MacBook Pro, A4 and previous chips, and SSDs in the MacBook Pro and
