I agree that teaching others what you know is a key ingredient for leaders. The aim should be to have your followers surpass you eventually. A second class leader will try to prevent that, that's a lose-lose for everyone. Another reason tha

I'm running around advocating Ubuntu to non-tech savvy people (friends, family) and everyone who had it installed is completely satisfied with it, because the essentials (Browser, Skype) work very well. And seeing that I can't help but wond

Is there a command-line client? I'd like to install that on a server via ssh and use it as a middle-man storage so I don't have to always have at least 2 computers running to sync.

Think about it. This makes sense. People who are in power of course are threatened by new, fast ways to share information just as much as established businesses are threatened by ecommerce-sites like Amazon. This threat is real and the dang

The advice that men get when asking women about romance is often pretty much useless and will do more harm than good. It would be way more useful to ask men that have their stuff together and know what they are talking about. Besides, every

Would be great to animate such a graph over time and see how social circles change over the years. Also I think theres other fascinating data in email. I'd like to run over my inbox archives and for example extract topics of interest that o

I agree. I tried using Hipmunk but I keep going back to Kayak. I find it more usable and pretty. I can exclude certain airlines or f.ex. flights with more than one stop with the checkboxes. Plus changing departure and destination airports i

With so much social media usage it's hard to arrest anyone that is not on g+, twitter or fb. heh But yes, its stupid to brag about committing a crime.

Something is off about that statement. I don't want to sound judgmental, but I don't think guilt about owing companies that offer free services is a good reason to watch or listen to ads. If on the other hand you think that advertising offe

The number 1 feature of G+ I'd like is federation. Something like that would be immensely cool (and for Google, still very profitable) if it would work like email. If I could log in to the network with any vendor I like. Or run my own box t

Yes, it's part of an effort to reduce distractions in my life. I don't watch or read news either, well, except tech related things like HN and Slashdot. I feel happier that way, too. (Try it for a week and you'll know what I mean.) I still

Coming directly from university I was earning about 45.000 Euro (+ Bonus) at a top-5 consulting firm here in Germany. After one year I started to get very bored. In my free time I picked up Ruby and Rails and finally could not stand Enterpr

Agreed. I don't think it belongs here. But I think people like the subject to politics because the barrier of participation in discussions is low. It's harder when talking specifics of a programming language for example. Maybe that is one o

I'm not very sympathetic towards the rental of DRM-locked text books. It just seems wrong. Yes, I understand it takes money and effort to write and compile a book, but since currently the prices of ebooks are way too high (after all print,

Just out of curiosity I searched for a reference and apparently T-Mobile spend 1.9 bn USD in 2008 in Europe on capital expenditures for its mobile segment. Not sure if those numbers are comparable though. (url: http://www.geschaeftsbericht

The Problem with badges, Farmville-dollars (or whatever they are called) and similar things is that they are unreal things in an unreal world. Unless there's anything useful that can be done with it (say, like with StackOverflow-Karma that

May be so. But how does this comment help to create an interesting discussion? Don't take it personally, please. But HN has always been great because of good comments. I'm not saying I've always contributed well, but let's try. :)

Reading this is like not reading it. Nothing gained, a minute lost. Where is the research, perhaps an opinion, what does this all mean. That is not journalism imho.

Indeed. But on the other hand I don't think Google would disallow or block ads for Facebook. Their strategies differ. Google thrives with an open web, Facebook is a walled garden. But yeah, no scandal here.
