Don't worry, they'll just put a new clause in the agreement that says you can't charge more to iOS users than non-iOS users. Stores won't raise their prices 30% for all users or they'll go out of business. So they'll either give Apple their

I can't really argue with that, but sometimes having a specific destination in mind helps you get there faster.

There's too much grey to make this black and white. What would you say to a closeted gay politician pushing anti-gay legislation? Would you not consider that person a fraud, just like someone saying their research is based on the universe b

They are most likely still going to use a scientific approach to trying to prove the non-mainstream theory, so it's not really a valid comparison.

I was thinking about writing an article giving advice to people who want to write articles giving advice to people who are writing articles that give advice about startups. I'm short on sources though. If anybody has any, please post a link

You "respect the guy", then throw out "comic book guy"? You think you're being funny. I'm guessing you're in the minority.

I find it humorous that there is such a need to DEFINE Facebook. It's different things to different people. We really don't need one definition of what it is or a nice tidy list of the ways people use it, what the benefits are, what the dra

Actually, I think the field is pretty mature at this point. I think it's more an issue of that fact that the barrier to entry is so low and that if someone has a hard time identifying a bad developer, they'll have a hard time identifying a

This is where you just need to give your employees the very BASIC ability to make decisions on their own. If someone comes up to you and says "My grandson is going to be removed from life support and I need to make sure I catch my flight",

That's not really the point though. These decisions are not made democratically with the passengers' input; passengers have no say in the matter, regardless of whether or not they are informed of the situation. A bit of extra attention shou

Although I commend Southwest and everyone involved, I'm more bothered by why he couldn't have been afforded even basic additional attention to get him on the flight on time without having to delay take-off. I'm not saying they did the wrong

There's no need to even ask the question. The community will flag or not flag. The story will either live or die. Some "a few times per year" stories will be interesting enough to generate a discussion, and some won't. It's no different tha

ASP.NET isn't a language (but considering how few people on HN use the MS stack, I don't think it's going to throw off your results by much).

It would be nice if people just posted because they had something worth saying instead of worrying about all this nonsense. Karma: some people should lose it when it matters, but most of the time, too many people care about it when it doesn

I didn't say that all patent applications are for protection.

I think there's a big difference between applying for a patent for protection vs. applying for a patent to wield it as a sword. If your company could get a patent that it could use as a defense against a big company that held other similarl

There is absolutely value. But that value is currently minimized with the current system. Jobs may be talking about young idealistic people starting schools, but he says nothing to imply that you wouldn't want experienced, motivated teacher

This is about as likely as it is for people to stop submitting posts telling the entire community what to post, how to vote, how to behave, etc. I'll take the occasional repost over the increase in high-horse posts telling me what I can and

It's an aside, but wanting anonymity while asking for help/connections probably isn't going to get you very far. If you're willing to provide more information to someone who can help before that person puts his/her reputation on the line by

But it's not always the data by itself that has value. Sure, it might be useless on its own, but if your app loses it and it causes the experience of using the app to be bad, then it doesn't matter how useless you think the data is; it's go
