"If, after the sales pitch, you’re ready to pull the trigger, you are politely directed to a computer to make your deposit and place your order." Sounds like their business model will be left for a judge to decide. I think people on HN are

After reading that I understand that this J.Callahan character went on a bit of a rant, but I gotta say I don't think it warranted a public direct response. IMO Notch should have done what Callahan suggested and just written the post clarif

You know thats right. Whats such a shame is that the rest of the world embraces Steve Jobs and what he stood for and what he made Apple stand for. I feel a little crazy to say this, but doesn't it seem like Apple is falling farther and fart

I take advantage of my browsers history with porn. When I was in college the first bash script I wrote was to open a movie in my porn collection that I hadn't watched in the longest time. This was great. But now with streaming porn sites I

It's amazing the news about this riot has spread the way it has. It's common practice in China to limit the number of workers from each village in order to differ congregations of people and suppress acts like rioting. I have heard of prote

You are missing the point. A lot of hacker news is about accomplishing goals that others would tell you is impossible or not worthwhile. This article is meant to inspire to you to keep dreaming. It's one thing to climb a mountain for someon

Not going to lie, I backed my first kickstarter project the other day with Boosted Boards. When I decided to back it my thought process was "Oh, get it in May, perfect timing for my brothers birthday"... now I understand, it might never com

I am no web designer, but I have made plenty of websites in my time. Right now I am rebuilding a site for a product that I sell. I decided to go with a one page web site with lots of javascript for clicking around and animated images. The w

Wanna improve your running? Start doing squats. The way to build up speed is to increase the force each step has against the ground. Moving your feet is fine, but if you train your body to push off the ground with more muscle you will certa
