I honestly don't know how people can follow hundreds of accounts and stay sane. I "follow" like 6 accounts and I can't keep up! I use twitter very casually and hardly ever twit something about myself at all (if ever). I

For a site like Wired and many other established publishers this doesn't make any financial sense. There's still a lot of money to be made from plain old ads, as annoying as they may be to most of us. It's obvious by now that

I congratulate Forbes in successfully blocking my attempts to read their articles but I really don't care enough to turn off adblocking on their site. Usually there are other tabs with articles waiting for me to read and Forbes just sa

Why do people keep using linkedin? They are the biggest spammers around and have no shame. All email providers should filter their emails as spam automatically. I periodically receive linkedin invitations from people that wrote to my dev em

Which church made this possible? Several versions of the bible are public domain, he licensed the versions that weren't. Unless a church helped him write the app he owes them nothing.

Didn't google started to host copies of images referenced in gmail a while back though? This should make this method useless for a lot of email addresses.

It seems the app developer was dying for the thrill of selling his first company. Spanish media is growing, particularly in the US, so there's no reason to think his app sales were about to decline, at least not enough to sell his gold

Also worth noting is that Assange has said repeatedly that he would leave the embassy if he is given written assurance that he won't be extradited to the US.

That acquisition would've sucked for non-Apple dropbox users.

Wow, thanks for the background on that. He must've been way more handicapped than anyone thought though.

I haven't liked their design for a couple of versions now so I keep several old versions around. MS can do as they please.

Chromebooks are netbooks and they seem to be doing just fine. To me they're a bastardization of what the concept what's supposed to be but that's beside the point.

"Between 1996 and the date of the discovery, more than 2,000 bodies had been sent to Tri-State. The search ultimately recovered 339 uncremated bodies. Of the 339 bodies that were discovered, 226 were identified." How long did they

I think you are asking for the utility-zation of programming (which is coming) and since that development will make a lot of developers obsolete, I for one don't want that to happen before I'm "retired".

I don't know why you are being voted down. If you sound harsh it's because the whole project sounds pretty crazy. Did YC really back this? Insane.

And here I was thinking that because Parse was acquired by facebook using their Push notifications offering was as safe bet as I could make. Can anyone recommend an alternative short of implementing my own GCM server app?

I keep thinking about an article I read a couple of years ago about the two schools of thought in AI: the now popular Conventional AI and (I believe) Computational AI. The article was mainly about the lead proponent of computational AI and
