This is really fun! Not sure why the shark keeps attacking me or how to get that sucker to cut it out. Maybe a little explanation of the shark would help. Didn't get too far so I'm not sure what kind of levels or progression there

I can't imagine the amount of electricity (even just for a split second) it would take to pull this off.

In this case the "mob" that was outraged was a small, very vocal minority.

Scientists, if carbon dating is limited to ~50,000 years or so, how do archeologists date things into the millions of years with accuracy?

Wow, the Bible app is worth apparently $1.1 billion and it's run by a church in Oklahoma. Worth more than Google and Twitter.

Serving your spouse is one of several ways to show love. There's a book worth reading on the topic. It's old and cheesy, but it's really useful for our 8+ year marriage to stay strong, even after a year-long separation. http

This is all good advice. I can't think of anything more that I'd add. Also, I want more of this on HN when people submit ShowHN posts.

The specialness of Uber isn't the car, it's the driver that is summoned seemlingly magically from your phone and paid just as easily. The drill analogy only works if you're quickly hiring a handyman to drill the hole, not a d

My (American) cousin has a degree in German from a fancy school. She's now 30, a Zumba instructor, and still living with roommates in an apartment to keep costs down while paying for student loans. She loves her job, but the debt of co

This is encouraging. But it's not an MVP approach as much as a validation approach. They validated the idea/product with Mailchimp. The product didn't come until they started building something to "productize" what

Step 1: install Bootstrap. Step 2: get stock image and write trite copy. Step 3: post on HN. Agree with others that this is both an interesting concept and looks hastily glued together. Also, the anonymity is worrying.

I love Bob Marley. I don't smoke pot. The same correlation (or guilt by association) could be made by the people you follow on Twitter or your Facebook friends or the people who endorse you on LinkedIn.

Semi-retiring from parenting won't happen until those kiddos are 30. Just a heads up. ;)
