Absolutely! That's actually in the hacker news commenting guidelines: "Please respond to the strongest plausible interpretation of what someone says, not a weaker one that's easier to criticize. Assume good faith." htt

This is fantastic, and Apple should follow suit. I hope this is just the beginning. These features are ones that I would use today: * Disconnect at night. Wind Down gets your phone ready for bed by letting you schedule changes to the displa

Since you appreciate candid feedback, I would like to explain why I down-voted you. Your post comes off as super rude and dismissive. You may have some valid criticism to give but, take more care in how you deliver it. It's a bad look

Do you use these for home lighting, and if so, how do they compare to traditional CFLs? Or would that be total overkill?

There is one place where it's dynamic, which is that if your very first click is on a mine, then it'll relocate it to the upper-left corner (or the next available spot).

I enjoyed the lectures quite a bit, but ran into a lot of trouble with the problem sets. I'm wondering if anyone else had a similar experience, or if I should give it another chance and try some different approach? The problem I had wa

I’ve been thinking a bit about wearable computing and pervasive encrypted communication. I think personal encryption could become more necessary in an age of deep learning enabled fake video and audio. Wearable computing could take readings

That may be so, but don't we want a company like newman's own to exist and do good in the world? Maybe they shouldn't exist under the current tax regime, but it's not the company that's in the wrong but rather the s

Do you have more details on this? I've been looking for a way to build a fanless server but I've been having a difficult time finding info on it. The only stuff I can find is one or two commercial sites that sell custom builds, an

I started with making todo lists. It was easy to mark each row as TODO or DONE. I was able to indent underneath each todo to make sub tasks, and fold each section up and move it around easily. Then I found a way to add due dates to each ite

It seems that companies would rather buy "insurance" rather than spend money on actual security. They have accepted that they will eventually be hacked or have a really expensive outage, so now they want a cushion of money to pay

I would be wary of setting his agenda too much. You clearly want the best for him but is he truly on board with these plans? Pushing him too much could blow up and he may drop computer science altogether. Be proud that he's going into
