The article was written by CultofMac. They have a strong self interest in exaggerating any situation relating to Apple in order to attract more readers. It's hard to find honest boring news nowadays.

I admire Microsoft's attempt to experiment with a different Windows UI, but it will take quite some time for users to get accustomed to this new tile format after accumulating decades of experience with the desktop interface. These informat

The end of the world and a bubble are two entirely different things. I can also argue that your statement didn't add anything either without stating the obvious.

Yep, Bubble 2.0 is upon us. I just hope people can put two and two together this time and get out before it bursts.

Another potential alternative to removing the URL Bar could be to camouflage it. Instead of keeping it white, allow it to blend in with the rest of the browser's color scheme and UI when not active.

Yes, there are honest, well-meaning, hard-working people working in government, but there are also lying, corrupt, self-interested politicians lobbied heavily by corporations. When news like this comes out, it just adds to the suspicion and

"If it makes you feel any better, I was a janitor too." It doesn't make me feel any better. I don't need sympathy. "It was a very different type of job from say... founding a startup, or even just being yet another software engineer." Agree

"Steve Jobs doesn't have expectations for janitors." That whole ideology is unsettling to me. The way in which janitors are singled out as not having the same level of expectations to accomplish their tasks as a VP or any other position. I

Sad thing is his death will probably add fuel to Al-Qaeda's fire. Although we may not be able to kill his legacy, we can still try to extinguish the fear he lived to ignite.

It seems one of the main complaints in the current format is the lack of a quick visual guideline to contrast comments amongst each other. Maybe PG can create a numerical ranking system for comments similar to the way stories are ranked on

Khan Academy is definitely a good step in the right direction but still lacks the one on one interaction with a knowledgeable mentor some students need in order to ask varying questions and receive the personal answers suited to their ratio

Hmmm, both options do seem to have their pros and cons in the current layout of the comment system. You may want to keep displaying comments without points but also try splitting the comment section into two parallel parts: A "Top Comments"

Along with hiding comment vote counts, maybe you could try experimenting with hiding story vote counts as well. It may encourage readers to comment on stories they are genuinely interested in rather than the top voted stories of the day.

Incredible how these world renowned companies we know today started out with so little and were denied by most of the venture capital firms at the time. Definitely inspirational and an example to look up to when bootstrapping. I'm keeping t

We've seen this coming for quite some time. Both Google and Apple have very apparent opposing strategies in how they're going to attract customers to their respective platforms. It's almost like watching Mac vs Windows all over again. Apple
