That's wierd.. back when I was doing amazon affiliate I posted a lot on Reddit. I'd find threads about products and post a link to the product using my affiliate code. It worked "okay" - I made a lot more doing other t

I loved my manual car when I lived in a state with little traffic. Now that I'm in CA, a manual sounds like a nightmare.

I'll tell my TLD story. I was following .family for a long time, since my current "primary domain" is horrible and hard to say. <family name>.family sounded pretty awesome. There was that whole pre-registration BS but

Major doesn't seem herself. she seems confused, and weak. the real Major we know is straight badass, with some natural, intelligent introspection that would come from being a full-body cyborg. I don't like what they've done

On his campaign trail he talked about moving it to schedule 2 or below. And he supports medical marijuana. You should be more worried about his choice of attorney general.

If they really wanted holy war, they should release a cheap phone that could be easily bought worldwide. They could even take a loss (using their $40bill as Jobs said he was willing to do), and try to earn back the loss in the app store. I

Current company I work had me write FizzBuzz on paper, and that was mostly it for the technical interview. They asked about my history and I talked about projects and such, but it was probably the easiest interview I've ever had. And

Do you use USB or HDMI? You don't use any of the function keys on a mac, like volume, brightness, play/pause? I use those constantly. And then the lackluster specs. That alone leaves me no real reason to upgrade.

Nice. I've wanted to do something like this, as I have a theory about the car pool lanes being worse for traffic. When traffic is bad, car pool lanes are just as backed up typically. When someone wants to get in the car pool lane upo

I grew up with migraines. Frequency ranged from once a week to once every few months, with the average being 1 or 2 a month. Mild ones left me sleeping near the toilet. Some were so bad I truly believed I would die, even though I would t

So about the charging stations. Is the end goal going to be charging stations all over your city for each car manufacturer? Or are they willing to copy Tesla's plug and make some kind of "charging alliance"? Tesla has rele

For the average person, yes. I was speaking in consideration of the HN audience. Rather, people with enough intelligence to know what they are getting into and how they might take advantage of it. But most people are curious, try it out,

Don't know why this needs an analogy at all. Getty [allegedly] took images that didn't necessarily belong to them, charged for them, and also sent copyright notices after anyone that hadn't paid for them. It's pretty sim
