   One of the better articles about the cultural impact of the Legend of Zelda. In my head I put Ocarina of Time as a classic fairy tale and forget sometimes that it was a video game from the 90s

   Assuming you're using Rack, I would suggest you use a Rack Middle ware like http://raindrops.bogomips.org/ and then filter for your API routes

   I think the economic argument about the shortage of talented tech workers is well thought out. Salary is a great indication of supply and it's percentage increase is not much higher than inflation. I'm not sure what the author means by repa

   I think it's ok to wait a year if you really intend to go to college afterwards. College provides a lot of learning outside the classroom and the experience you gain there working with other people and learning from them could benefit you d

    Yeah that alone would be really helpful. I think that's a great place to start

    Yeah I agree, I didn't even think of them as IaaS because I'm so used to Heroku and other PaaS now that I assume the other ones are too. My bad. Maybe having a separate tab/page for PaaS would be helpful?

    I think this site would be useful for developers trying to choose web hosting. I think some more information that could be added is what programming languages and plugins they support. Also, it would be nice if you could do something simila

    I think that there are definitely some valid points about efficiency while using ORMS when the queries get more complicated. However on a simpler scale, like a blog, ActiveRecord or other ORMS aren't horribly inefficient and are faster and

    This could really save lives. I bike to work everyday and cars usually don't recognize bikes as something that belongs on the road.

    The comment by Graham Seiner on the article "Given that the newbie devs all go to Stack Overflow to get questions answered, this makes sense. The real question is what do the older hackers get out of answering all those questions? Seems li

    Valid point and a great quote. It's just hard to believe such people exist outside the realm of comic books.

    Not that LulzSec has made sense up until now but why bother taking out online video games? I feel like that's alienating the population that would normally support or at least be indifferent about a group like LulzSec.

    This looks like a really cool idea and I can't wait to try it. Is there any chance an android version will be coming out soon?

    When I tried the Rails 3.1 beta, I had issues with getting Mongoid and various other dependencies working and could not get it to run. My Rails 3.0 app completely broke. I might be an edge case though.

    What about all of the entrepreneurs who come up with their own products and code them? Also CS is a major about how to think about problems and solve them. Any creative person needs that skill set eventually. Whether they get that from Comp

    Can you elaborate what you mean by it focuses on the wrong things? I'm confused because Computer Science is a tool that is supposed to enable you to focus on what you want.

    The most interesting part of the article is the end which discusses the validity of IQ tests in general. This kind of reminds me of how much is read into the Marshmallow Test, http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stanford_marshmallow_experiment

    I think alternatives could exist and be extremely popular, especially since people are crunched for time. On the flip side, sites like HN exist for the insights provided by comments.
