Us not readily acquiring the malaria virus is not due to evolution of our genes; we just don't live in the areas where the vector thrives. If you and I were bit by an infected mosquito, there's a very good chance either of us would die in a

Definitely, I agree, and I'll be working on building a great community. But surely there are features that even the most passionate of HN users have wanted that would enhance and leverage the relationships within this community.

Don't worry about it, Dan. Here's something I've noticed in the years I've been on HN: Many seem to be so utterly pessimistic about others' ideas, executions, and successes out of what I suspect to be nothing but pure jealousy. Seriously. T

Why do we take what Shervin has to say seriously at all? One thing I do not understand is this community's (not just HN) tendency to give instant validity and credibility to those like Shervin who are running successful companies. The guy r

And I take it physicians, lawyers, dentists, and other professionals, on top of all of the entrepreneurs who have sold their beloved companies for millions, aren't doing meaningful or engaging work. If you're good at any of the careers I ju

Conversely, I don't understand those who feel the need to point out that it was very straightforward, implying that those who did find it confusing perhaps weren't as intellectually capable of following the fast-action plot. It's like sayin

No, you shouldn't have. I understood the sarcasm. Some people here take things way too literally and seriously.

You could not have done a worse thing to their previous branding an image, which I thought was pretty damn good in the first place. Nowhere on the homepage does it tell me what MailChimp actually does. The content font is pretty small, and

You are concerning yourself with increasing a meaningless stored value on a website on the internet that, chances are, you'll move on from in a relatively short period of time. Take a second to think about that. That applies to here and all

You'd not be so opposed to the submission if you were a lot less cynical. I see this as a genuine warning to the community. Nothing more.

I just read through 10 or so posts on that blog, and nothing seems terribly out of line... His criticisms were for the most part legitimate. That's just his style, and, while I don't prefer that and think it's quite immature, I've got to sa

You can find other ways to market your app other than writing and submitting such an empty post. You've written other pieces on the importance of starting and creating stuff, all which have received their fair share of discussion around her

Yes, absolutely. We've seen this sort of inconsideration time and time again. Think about all the families and businesses affected by the sudden lack of tea on December 16, 1773.
