Not really confusing at all. They combined the two with the verses taking their melody from 'Heart & Soul' and the 'boom de yada' from 'I Love the Mountains.'

It's way too cluttered with bold colors and bold fonts. I'm always so overwhelmed and confused when I land on a site like that. All the information is in your face.

Something about the whole Stack Overflow/Exchange-type answer site look is very off-putting.

This is one thing that never fails to irritate me: the stigma against the wealthy. It's almost as if all the energy, effort, time, sacrifice, and risk usually taken by many who are now wealthy are completely overlooked, making them look und

805 is the area code for Bakersfield. He must've been looking for another Paul Graham. PG's is probably 1(911)-791-7299.

Thanks a ton, jacquesm. This would've been very useful for a past project, and while I don't necessarily need it at the moment, I suspect it'll come in handy sometime in the future.

I don't think you were really trying to spam anyone, but your plug came off as such, to me, because: a) HN has been inundated with iPad blog posts and we've already heard opinions of all angles, so it's safe to say your post wouldn't have m

Coincidentally, on the way over to Starbucks just now, I heard a segment on NPR about internet-addicted korean kids who are losing their childhood to the online realm, so much so that they now have two-week internet addiction rehab programs

Not to make an issue out of something so trivial, but honestly, it didn't come across as hyperbole. The general tone of the article is pretty direct and in-your-face, so it looks more like an actual attempt at estimation rather than humor,

I don't know how I feel about this. Part of me wants to say this'll be a great light mobile device to carry around, and the other part says this is somewhat useless as I can do most of these things on my iPhone. I really don't see anyone us

Where the hell is Google to regulate this sort of stuff? It's appalling that they'd take a back seat to this. No doubt they know it's going on.

Uh, that's not a response to Aaron's article. That's Jason acting naive and oblivious to dodge the accusations, and taking on this whole 'aww shucks, can you help me out a bit?' attitude to shift the discussion and get on Aaron's good side.

Against what most have suggested here so far, I actually like #47 significantly more. Here's why: When I hear 'translator', I immediately think of someone furiously typing on a computer or transcribing something on paper - nerd-like behavio

While I agree with your overall sentiment, I think the issue with this particular situation is that Wakemate was not being totally candid about their pricing intentions. Even after the recent announcement, nowhere on their site do they info

You have the method by which you can generate lots of money in a short period of time; you just proved that to us with that $24k. But you say your problem is the time and effort expended to create your apps, so I'd suggest you take a portio

120 for me. It incorporates the multiple lines, and conveys a lot of action with those lines just bursting out. Only thing I'd try to do is emphasize the whole line theme throughout your app so the logo makes a bit more sense. But it's defi

Dumbing this down to just 'beans & rice' is a bit ignorant. In my culture alone we have at least 5 dishes with grain components that all taste vastly different from one another. As to the comparison, grains are often a more 'practical'

Did you do the commercial yourselves or hire an outside firm? Also, your logo is pretty confusing. It took me a while to actually realize that it was the logo for NerdKits while watching that commercial.
