There was a link to here on /r/programming. What really got me hooked wasn't all of the articles about startups, etc., but an interesting Wikipedia article. I forget what it was, but it was in the same vein as "White Cok

I still don't understand how the term "raped" is sexist. For "raped" to be sexist, it would have to imply some gender when both men and women can be raped.

Personally, I don't have a problem with people seeing footage of me in public. Well, not too much. I've always thought that since 1) the recording is legal (AFAIK) and 2) I'm okay with it, everyone else should be and if they

I thought the comment was in jest, or, at least, I certainly hope so.

This is unrelated to the article, but is anyone else experiencing not being able to scroll with a mouse scroll wheel on this page? I'm using Chrome on Win 7 64 bit and the scroll wheel does nothing, though it still works on other pages.

I think this is a neat idea but I also find it ironic that while so many people here in HN are so adamant about privacy, etc, they also think it's a great idea to livestream all of your phone calls. I suppose it's by choice, but I still thi

As someone with a slight (I think/hope) lisp, couldn't they have gotten someone else to narrate? Might just be a personal opinion, but I know I'd rather have my friend/co-founder/professional voice actor talk rather than me in a commercial

I have HTTPS Everywhere and I'm shocked at the number of sites I've found that don't work like they should when it's enabled. Namely a certain stock charting website that uses javascript to force you to HTTP unless you are a pro member that

It scares me that you're just going for "difficult to scrape" and "not make them easily indexible by Google." We don't want it to be hard to get our personal information, we want it to be impossible.

What's a good alternative to robots.txt?

It's getting harder for you to go wrong, shubb is waiting in SE UK and I'm here for you in SE US. Wherever you are, I doubt you'll have too much trouble getting people to come control flying robots.

This is a bit scary. I hope it doesn't give any other countries some ideas. Would there be anything Google could do to counter this?

And is there a way to create other stuff like this? It would be neat to be able to draw some simple thing with your mouse on a canvas and then have it generate an equation that makes it.

Finally, someone who realizes he wasn't some magical saint who was murdered in a back alley. Any suicide is a tragedy, but it's ultimately no one's fault but Aaron's.

To be fair, people aren't being killed, one guy in particular killed himself. While a tragedy, don't turn it into something it isn't.
