The article's right that most people want one small device and one big one. It's just wrong that the big one most people want is a laptop or PC.

I could have sworn that something was in Hacker School's explicit social rules that specifically says to beware of solutions that contain the word "just." Turns out there's not, but: when you phrase things that way, you

No, they don't. Gangsta rap as a style and thematic focus is a long way from what Kanye does. Also, it doesn't look like anyone described him as such - the article contains the quote "like isn't he some big fuckin'

Harassers can set up another account, but they generally don't. And not seeing the harasser's messages is not the only goal - when you force the harasser to unfollow, they don't see and harass your retweets either. The goal

It's not a critique - it's an answer to the question "why don't more people quote Foucault's _Discipline and Punish._" They don't quote it because it's not quotable. If someone were to write and (cr

The free tier's existed for months but has had wonky requirements at times (like only being able to get to it via a third-party app), and they continue to communicate really poorly about it.

That was always the core of their model. The idea was to monetize a Twitter-ish network by monetizing app development and API usage, a model which was allegedly on the table at Twitter itself at one point. They've just communicated rea

I'll be interested to see how pepper.js performs on mobile. Certainly plenty of people have skin in the game and want to see this stuff work.

They provide pepper.js, which does a similar trick for PnaCl stuff.

Apple's developer guidelines prohibit compiling and running anything that came over the wire, for security reasons as well as competitive ones. They could add this ability to Safari themselves, but why would they?

The most hilarious thing about this is how uncannily your claims mirror those that Rails had to deal with when it was new - people saw the easy-to-get-rolling-with scaffolds and assumed Rails couldn't make your app look like anything e

And the iPad is growing up too, and can extend itself into new kinds of usage with new, _supplementary_ kinds of input.

For core usage he was right, but: I'll bet you Steve owned a pen. I'll bet you it was great. And I'll bet you he used it a lot.

The pen thing is actually a big win for business users, even if it doesn't actually improve on what's already possible with iPad stylii.

Any half-decent emotional curriculum will teach that you can't control other people's emotions. (And that there's a lot you can't know for sure about those emotions - which kids are shown as picking up in the article.)

Housing strikes me as a pretty hackable problem. There's a lot of space between "residential hotels," Extended Stay America, and Airbnb, and there's a lot of potential especially in high-rent areas to come in under the c

It beats putting your private keys in client-side code (JS-only apps being those which this solution seems to be built for).

Meteor can be made to prep stuff for search engines and other spiders, but the current solution (they admit it's a stopgap) involves PhantomJS, which gets into serious resource consumption for a static site.

Trending topics are this decade's flagpole sitting. Replace it with something just as dumb-joinable-fun that's only possible with a decentralized web, and people will forget about the old thing after a while. Easier said than done, of cours
