I don't think the current generation of Simpsons writers would be the best group of writers to put this comparison to, but rather to the writers of shows like Futurama (which as I'm sure many devotees will know, consisted of a sta

Interesting design aesthetic. This still doesn't justify the price and Apple's going to be taking a hit now that so much of the entertainment industry has turned away from Final Cut.

Look, I'm going to start this off by agreeing with you that the author has improperly associated all of Islam with these kinds of hatred and bigotries and it is a very peculiar article to be posted to this website. The next part here gets t

It should also be noted that there's pretty much zero evidence that piracy actually hurts the sale of a game. Any research done by third-parties on the subject has shown that piracy generally helps the sales of the products being pirated du

I think this blogger isn't understanding a fundamental reality of corporate structure that has little to do with some pie-eyed plan for what Google thinks the web "needs". This behavior isn't indicative of any design to "improve" the web, w

Wordpress isn't very well-known by the general public. I mean hell, it's not even in the same ballpark compared to Wikipedia.

Once 3D printing tech gets off the ground, same-day delivery could end up becoming common or even the standard.

I feel like people like you complained when the first computers were invented because they were slow. This is haptic technology progressing and just the fact that it's getting major media attention is amazing since on-demand haptic feedback

The start menu had to go because Windows 8 is Microsoft's big gamble to jump into the tablet market. A start menu doesn't make much design sense on a tablet or smartphone and they're clearly trying to out-design Apple with Windows 8.

I started off agreeing with you and then things kind of veered off in the other direction. Yes, the "post-PC" world is what Microsoft is betting on right now. Though I think it should be kept in mind that the launch window between Windows 8

Why comment so condescendingly on a subject when you don't understand what happened? Does it play to your own personal sense of delusional superiority to think people overreacted to the ending "they didn't want"? You need to grow out of tha

I hate the morning with virulent passion. The noise, the distraction and the forced hellos. The only really positive thing about the AM is coffee smells that much better. I've always preferred to go to bed somewhere between 4 and 6AM, wake

I disagree with your assertion as I was pretty plainly addressing YCombinator itself and, more specifically, its declaration. I also fail to see how the mere existence of the tech industry somehow should mandate that studio executives under

Okay, so some ruminations: To create a film/television show you are generally going to need these things: Script Time Reliably Available Crew No matter what you do, you will always need money to accommodate these three needs to produce a pr

It's an interesting proposition to kill Hollywood, but I don't exactly think it's going to be killed so easily, or that it's anywhere remotely resembling close to being "dead". Just examining the profit margins from this year alone paints a

Okay, you started out very sensible and then took a pretty sharp left turn with targeting CAA and SAG. I was hoping to ask if you could elaborate on your thought process to help us better understand your viewpoint.

I really hope they re-open the grounds. That's one of those reminders that needs to stay fresh in the memory of humanity.

Zipcar isn't prevalent in the US outside of major cities. But I've used it and it is similar to what I'm talking about, just imagine that but fully automated and run by fewer hipsters.

Back when I went to public school I tested in the gifted categories for both reading and math. However, once I got to algebra my education fell apart. "Higher math" just didn't make sense to me. However, I switched to homeschooling in Middl

I really like the idea of a fleet of computer-controlled electric cars that function like an on-demand taxi service. Think about it, you need to leave for work at a certain time? Just jump on Google Taxi (I use Google as they're the only co

This article ignores a very central tenet of becoming rich: Luck. Most people didn't get in the position they were because they were geniuses. Few individuals fill that role. They get there because they were lucky. Bill Gates certainly wasn

Yeah, because as 2008 taught us, removing regulation and "opening barriers" to free up Capitalism sure as shootin' is the way to go! Good god... How the hell could anyone argue against regulation after the nightmare the derivatives market h
