I am skeptical that this will ever deliver a sufficient user experience when compared side by side to other mobile OSes. Wasn't the same sort of thing said about the desktop vs the web? Sufficient is the key word here. If the experience i

Exactly....remember those two friends that got barred from the US for joking over Twitter: http://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=3528138 Now the TSA makes an even more incendiary joke about "things that go BOOM" and it's all dandy from thei

The TSA isn't Reddit, we're talking about people's real security at stake here. Them joking about "things that go BOOM" is just downright distasteful, especially when people are expecting them to confront the security concerns more seriousl

I'm not defending the war crimes of the US either. All I'm saying is do not conflate lying with the obviously more extreme act of actually killing people.

Are you really suggesting murdering hundreds of innocent people is more honorable than lying for the sake of easing people's fears? I don't respect lying either, but let's not get crazy here.

There seems to be a lot of people here going through some of the same feelings, I know I have. Sometimes you just lose yourself when you're working on something you want to win. I know I've needed to take a step back and get myself back tog

If you didn't get consent to analyze this man in public, you should take it down IMHO. We should respect this man's personal life.

Yep, it may not be in 5 years but it's only a matter of time, no matter what native app developers would like you to believe. If we learned one thing from desktops, it was don't underestimate the web. Good to see things start coming back fu

Why are most of the top comments up in arms about this article and not the magic secrets of Teller one? If you're going to shout "irrelevant", at least be consistent. I think this speaks volumes of the biases inherent in some of the comment

Why does anyone have to decide what is "appropriate" for a community? Why can't a community just be?

Yea, it almost always works this way. Some entity in power thinks it's for the greater "good" to censor content from people and the slippery slope of censorship begins. Why can't Tumblr, Twitter, Facebook, or any of these other social media

Yea, the private rooms at my local library are made almost obsolete by the open study tables and desks there. For one, you don't have to worry about the constant time restrictions, and the extra ventilation doesn't hurt either.

Compliance does not excuse them from responsibility. Yes, both are trying the best job they can in the face of a request, but both also have the individual freedom to choose not to execute a hit job. Outrageous actions call for outrageous m

No, everyone involved is to blame, just nobody has the fortitude to do do anything about it as long as they are getting paid. If a hitman is paid to kill you, is he not guilty? The problem is everyone is okay with everything, as long as the

I guess sincerely expressing yourself is awful these days. Why does everything have to be so sugar-coated? I'd rather hear an authentic opinion from someone who means it than the robotic PR speak we here these days.

They have the right to offer anything they want, but ignoring users who want more control over their supposed Gmail space just isn't putting the user first, it's putting profits first. But I guess greed isn't evil, right?
