I hadn't even noticed it was there until now! It looks nice down there, just unexpected.

It seems like a work of genius, but it may be many years before an artificial intelligence can fully interpret its unique significance. In fact it reminds me about a massive book on cellular automation that I once picked up, which went to i

I read partway through and began to worry that maybe old age has finally caught up to me at 25.

It's clearly a product very early in development. I'm surprised Google released such a minimal product in such an important domain, but willing to give it a chance, feed it data and see how it matures.

"Warning: Next iteration in a genre of basic addiction games." These games really are impressive though. I wonder if there's been a good thesis written on them yet.

http://rosettacode.io/ is available for $99 on Name.com I'm not getting it though, I have too many bills already. lol who can afford to camp on this stuff I just don't know. It seems like gambling.

http://rosettacode.com/ That's awesome. Unused domain. If you can just think up names for projects like that, I have a few other ideas to tell you about ;D

For sure, Helperific is in the same general spirit. Their mailing list page is so minimal, and no Twitter posts yet except this one in 2013: https://twitter.com/gabehollombe/status/390062486210088960 Do you know w

Around 100km. I might move there next spring after fulfilling my current lease. It should offer more chances to meet like-minded people anyway. Small cities can be surprising.

"Your marketing effort should start BEFORE the product gets built" is in contrast to others' comments (like "use your spare time to build") but I think you may be right. There is certainly risk, and the likelihood t

Spot on. I'll keep working with this attitude, that any outcome will be positive, and work toward MVP while most other concerns can wait. This brought me back to thinking clearly.

Or someone with the relevant domain knowledge could look at the ideas and consider whether this guy may be worth talking to or hiring onto the design team for a similar project. Otherwise some guidance would be nice. The idea isn't to

Cool concept, not a fan of the pointless commentary after the premise was clear (took two seconds to figure out).

I signed up to wait for the Android version. As for myself, I spend 90% of my time (outside of work) alone, and there are a lot of wonderful things I see and think while wandering slowly in the early morning or evenings. It's not that

More to the point, Brendan's "traditional view of marriage" would be relative to whatever context he grew up in, and the traditions at the time. That's how I believe the term is meant in general.

The debate has been going on for years, with enormous investment of all kinds of resources from every side. Everyone involved has a stake, and the claim that "it loses them nothing" indicates a lack of perspective. I can only spea

Yes, completely agreed. People have the right to try to change others' views, but not to impose their views when trying fails. Perhaps donating to Prop 8 was "trying to impose" but the backlash is of the same ilk.

I agree in general. So long as humans partake in decision-making, decisions will be made according to the minds involved. I would worry about the possible impact of Brendan's personal beliefs if I thought that he truly has a heartfelt
