   Podcasting distribution and aggregation is a problem that is already solved really well in the OSS space; there doesn't seem to be a compelling need to adopt proprietary solutions. Harvard isn't a strappy startup with no funds available to

   Here's a good developer's postmortem from Secret of Evermore. I am including the web archive link because the original site is now hijacked by online casino spam. There are lots of interesting nuggets about the scripting language developed

   I don't think it's a matter of data access. I would argue that Bing has parity with Google in most respects (they have the same Internet to crawl, partnerships with some data providers for things like flight search, etc.), and they even hav

   I don't see how the infographic format adds any value in this case. Infographics are good containers for data visualization. This is just a bullet point listing of data with pretty pictures and a few BIG NUMBERS. Save the bits! End the info

   I despise it. One of my Gmail labels is set to sync content for 365 days. I nearly got RSI spinning that damn thing with my thumb until it hit 365.

   I'm not even allowed to write code off hours! All my code is belong to my employer. Am I a bad hire?

   Such saucer-eyed bullshit. Many employers have moonlighting clauses that prevent employees from contributing to OSS projects. All of the companies I've worked for have. If you only go by Github commits, you'll probably be getting only a cer

    Many Microsofties don't even use Bing.

    They don't expect manufacturers to lock down the devices. Their flagship devices, which are supposed to set the bar for other Android phones, are deliberately not locked down to set an example.

    Definitely not the case with HTTPS, which looks like binary garbage over the wire but whose payload is quite transparent once decoded by SSL.

    I'm on several Internet forums where people copy and paste entire articles with no attribution. Slideshows are unrolled, images are hyperlinked, etc. They're breaking the Internet! No, wait, they have been the Internet since the very begi

    Just watch, they'll just obfuscate the wording and re-add it on Tuesday. "Data transmission surcharge", or something.

    The "You're doing it wrong" + linkbait profanity formula really drives me up the wall. For example: "You're fucking up your source control", "Stop shitting on your 'ideas guy'", "Marketing Is Not A Fucking Joke. Assssss!"

    Easy - don't create a Google profile. Did you create a Google profile by accident? https://plus.google.com/settings/ , click "Delete profile and remove associated Google+ features". Voila, done. Your Gmail is pristine and the chip on your

    What does G+ spam look like?

    If there are spammers targeting G+, they must be doing a crappy job, because it hasn't even registered on my radar as a fairly active regular user.

    I agree, though I think Google should do more to promote this use case by offering rich text editing and draft saving to the posting UI.

    Comments on HN are a huge value-add. I can't stand other tech sites now, where the quality of the conversation is pages of fanboys calling each other names.

    Does it look like red and red? Or gray and gray?

    I thought that the red banner was a call to arms for SOPA or something. After I noticed that the article numbers were alternating red/green, my blood pressure went down a few points. :)

    Misleading facts aside, infographics and Top N lists are a worrying trend on the Internet in which discourse is polluted with mindless content farms that are less concerned with disseminating facts than they are with getting clicks. I know

    Thanks so much. I actually went on an OOTW tech info binge a couple years ago. I wish I had found this at the time!

    Does this figure include government subsidies? Let's just say that I'll believe it when I see it.
