I tried, no I really really tried hard (one hour of googleing is a long time in google time), but I can't. I have to use MatLab for control systems course I am taking. The problem is at college I submit my code as a matlab file and the co

That is something I have tried, but no I don't have time for that. I catch a college bus with 1 and half hour ride (one way) at 8am and usually hack till 2am so I cannot just wake up at 6:30 to do some running even for half an hour. I come

Ok people I have to face the music. I just cannot sit on the computer forever! I need suggestions for a off line hobby. I am 19 and I don't have anything apart from my computer life under my belt. I did some theatre and drama, at my last ye

I know most of the people here did not take this seriously, but in an ideal world this is how taxes would work (I am no economist so take this with a grain of salt, this is what I think should happen). "Government needs money to run. They

This is a long shot, where long → ∞. But I am at Ganpat University, Mehesana, India. I am in the engineering college (formally UVPCE) anyone from there or any of the Ahmedabad college? Would love to meet.

O fish, I totally missed that(I am not geek enough I guess). They should include that in the FAQ.

Why 42. Most of the early would be hackers and geeks and a prime number would seem way better.

This alone will put you in the top half of the programming community with regards to knowledge and overall understanding. Really? Is the bottom half really that dumb? Or people just choose to ignore things which are not immediately of the

I was just wondering if there is a MATLAB compatible library for Control Toolkit in octave so I can use the code I write at school for learning at home.

Really, 99 weeks is just too much. If you cannot get rehired in a year or so, do you really think you will get hired at all? If you were good enough or lucky enough you would get a job in 1 year or else you seriously need to rethink your "c

Considering that most of the world is run through computers and you cannot use computers, how do you plan to do this?

I agree with that. I have seen apple.com a few times when I want to drool and this seems strikingly similar. But one thing is, when you have such a minimalistic design, the change in menu bar is a major change.

Wouldn't it be funny if this was just a large bag of nothing? I mean, there will be all the fearing in record executives and all the press and all that and they just upload one lousy image or better yet a propaganda?

Who said anything about your karma? I never look at anyone's karma before judging. What you wrote was crap and go downvoted. Thats all there is to it.

by rick_2047 16y ago
sure! you find it useful. But why? If you would have explained all this instead of saying "Great Group!", you wouldn't have been downvoted. You see, on HN we try to explain what we are saying and don't take much on face value. Also a two wo

Because they are not telling why this is a great group. There must be some basis on which there comments rest. If they cannot express that, better just upvote the story.

Why should we judge? When you submit something to HN, it is judged, no matter what. HN people are analytical and like to break things and analyse the system.

While agree fully with your point that we should not judge things by the medium they are using, I cannot fail to see how most of the comments violate the guidelines of HN (take my comments with a grain of salt, I used google translate to lo

If you didn't know, that does not have some updates that pg makes on the fly. I have been managing hackerstreet.in, which uses that source, and I can tell it is outdated. Please actually see links before you are linking.
