About the 80 lines width: yes, and it is much more important now than never (in my opinion). Have a look at most news websites, or at a normal book, or a newspaper, or LaTeX (and even Word!) standard text-width, it's all fitting in around t

Corps will never invest money in a software that they can't use, or worse can get sued millions for IP violation. IP validation is relevant, and it's probably a lot of work for the reviewers too. Software development isn't what it was in th

Invest in green tech - but I'm not speaking stocks. Install solar panels on your home, or maybe a vertical wind turbine. Insulate your home better, research if it's financially worth it. After doing that, you can even reuse your experience

Right... Remembers me that priced TED talk by Jamie Oliver (www.ted.com/talks/jamie_oliver.html) showing how heart diseases and fat were killing much more Americans than murders or cars.

I don't know how it is in the US but in Germany taxe revenues can't be bound to their sources, that means the government can (well, have to) spend the oil tax on whatever he wants.

High-speed rail is for persons, not for goods. With high-speed train you can travel from A to B (with A and B being in the 'right' range of course) cleaner and faster than with the highway. And it may actually create a demand for more trave

Such services like http://radar.zhaw.ch used to have a 15 min delay one year ago for security reasons. Not sure if that is still true, it seems like it's realtime now.

In Germany, many people don't trust investing their money - even in sure state bonds. Most of this money is inherited money or lifelong hard saved money. Also, many people got rich just because they happened to own land on a now urban area.

So (at least small) Python programs tend to have less lines than Java ones - OK. That makes them maybe less bug prone. But Java, being laughed at all the time, has got to be one of the most mature and supported programming languages out her

Well they are graphical IDEs for mainframes. Java is also running very well on mainframes, as well as many web/appservers. This article makes a simplistic, though a bit funny image of the mainframe. Yes, the core and old stuff looks like

Two excellent points! Add to that: I code at work the same type of things I'd make at home else. That free up some time, and wow, you get paid for that :)

On a somewhat related point, I think the best advantage of hiring people who code in their free time is that none of them will try to take your job as long as they can use their favourite editor. Think of that as the early Steve Job strateg

Surprised I've been downvoted for that... I believed visitors on hacker news would not be the "that is not doable" kind of people - rather "let's try solve that"... Is that because as hackers you hate windows, or does it reflect a very US-c

Ok, maybe my memory is wrong... I had a long bus drive through New Jersey a few months ago - saw a lot of different suburb landscapes there. I think I know how it looks like. Small houses with very small ground pieces, bigger houses, some w

Hm where would you put that house in Manhattan? You must be really rich. That would work not only in a forest but in most of suburban America.

In France they got a law to help restaurants. Effect of the law? No additional employment - and - productivity decreased. Why? Most restaurant used the additional money to hire officially people working unofficially before that...

OK, so maybe I've not understood the point. But isn't one of the biggest goals of technology to increase productivity? And how can tech be separated from productivity increase?
