I am skeptical that women are really into construction workers as a whole. If they get any benefit from construction, my guess is that they are more fit on the whole. Women I've met in urban areas don't give a shit about the "manliness" of

I don't think they're turned on by room-temperature IQ construction workers (not saying they all are) for their occupation either. Maybe the problem here is that you're talking about your occupation. If you meet a secretary or a doctor in

I think the trick that almost everybody uses, even if they don't realize it, is to determine what the simplest (read: least time consuming) possible task to move their project forward is. Even if you spend time thinking about this and "not

I think you're projecting on the politics. Though the author lamented Bush's 2004 win, "(In the alternate decade of fantasy, President Gore, forever slim and with hairline intact, not only reads those intelligence memos in the summer of 200

I do not own a smart phone, and I think your position is basically reasonable. That said: "Sure, there's no WiFi" to me is actually a complete deal killer. Even in areas with great 3G reception, I would always prefer to be using WiFi. You s

How about for $500m? Not saying that's what would be offered, just noting that there is probably a monetary threshold where "having a great time" no longer is relevant.

HackerHackerNews.com seems to do a good job of separating the more sensationalist articles from the drier articles. (This is what I perceive your complaint to mean).

In all fairness, as much as you may not be a Bill Gates fan, it's pretty difficult to suggest that he's as unimpressive as the founder of 4chan. All the 4chan guy did was make an unmoderated message board.

That gotapi.com link is sweet. Is it commonly known?

Yeah but for a company which aims to make all the world's information accessible it's clear where this thing has to go (in my opinion).

This is interesting if it doesn't get culled by spammers. Somewhere in Manhattan, Joel Spolsky feels a shiver running down his spine. Best of luck to both of them, though.

You and I have different definitions of dangerous. Risky might be a better word. But the right word for that sentence is probably "unpleasant" or "vexing". Dangerous is getting your hand caught in your disposal. Not being able to talk to a

These all look like scam accounts. (The poster of this article and every commenter on this page). Also note how shitty the "upgrade to facebook pro" image is. There's no way that Facebook would release something like that.

Kijiji is the worst name I've seen for anything, ever. Most fonts do not distinguish well enough between 'i' and 'j' for it to be considered even readable.

Kind of a simplistic post, but one thing I did like was the pink dot at the end of the first column and the beginning of the second. It gave a really clear indication that you didn't have to scroll past the bottom of the quote to continue r

This feels like kind of a cheap answer, but I know that with Visual Studio you can step into most standard library functions, even if it ends up being at the assembly level; I assume the same is true for gdb. Is the not asshole answer to be

Part of it, I think, is the lack of imagination factor (on the part of the person playing the game). Movies try to get you to look at the world differently; books make you conjure up your own imagery to match the text. Comic books even forc

While I agree that The Economist has an editorial slant, it is at least informative enough that you can form your own independent opinion from their reporting. (At the beginning of the 2008 presidential campaign they seemed to be stumping h

Not sure why this is voted down, it's relevant and adds some content. I find it especially interesting that nmap was used in a porn movie of some sort (at work, so I can't verify/see how graphic it is). I always assume that porn is produced

Just a suggestion: Use github gists for Clojure code if you want to embed in posterous. For other languages, posterous has a code tag that automatically highlights/formats for you. They just don't support Clojure very well.

I think the more giant gaping hole in logic is how much power gangs have in an anarchy society. If you're interested in maximizing your personal resources, the best way to do it is to terrorize and extort your fellow citizens through violen

It's a pet peeve of mine to see cat [one-file] | less `less` takes a file as an argument. less [one-file] only requires you to run one program, and I/O tends to be really slow.
