Small quibble: Those press quotes pretty much each say the same thing - recounting the four point list that is directly above them.

No, granting for a second that you are indeed just a little mixed up on the terminology: what you need to realize is that you completely messed up your whole argument by phrasing it in a way that only you yourself could clearly understand.

> The industry and the current art form are dying. The record selling industry is dying, correct. Music as an art form dying? What the heck are you talking about and/or smoking? The record selling industry latched onto music, the ar

Not sure if serious... Music labels have always sold what is popular, they don't care whether it's good or not, they're a business. For a while, they were quite good at it, but then they started to suck at it and then the mon

I tried to like it. Used it for three months, I think. Never really sunk in the way I would have liked to and clever auto-complete works a lot faster for me these days than 8pen ever could.

True, also, it seems like my first hypothetical twist might not have been that far off as I thought. Other comments[0] readily theorize it to be a likely scenario. [0] https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=6483382

Just a small thing: The contrast on the Pricing Table makes it very hard to read. #ccc on #fff = eyestrain.

"could not find the link"? http://www.reddit.com/r/IAmA/comments/1853ap/we_are_spacex_s... Sorry to say, but that was literally a matter of googling "reddit spacex ama". Come on.

I've been coding PHP for almost 8 years now. The number of times that I have come across anything even close to that example is precisely zero.

Trust is a fickle thing, but one thing that I have learned is that one vital element to building trust is to refrain from announcing your intention of doing so. Even having a "plan to build trust" is questionable - if you need to

Sorry, my bad - I got the impression you were talking about Linus.

by skore 13y ago
Wow, the comments in this thread sure are disappointing. Oh my, Linus is blunt, who would have thought! I wish people were over that years ago. Look - in coding, there is code. Linus has his code in the open. This petition should not have b

Thankfully, there is code that programmers can check on. Not sure what you're on about.

Yeah, sorry, all of that is irrelevant. You use somebody elses UI on your kickstarter. That is a terrible, terrible idea. It's an idea terrible enough that it will make people doubt your competence. For me, personally, "building

Why does it resort and regrow all the blocks when you switch between years or other settings? If the same blocks simply grew or shrunk, it would be a lot easier to follow the difference. Actually, it sometimes simply converts blocks into ot

Definitely backend. Backend is where the client knows what she wants. Frontend is where the client thinks he knows what his clients want . Big difference.

No, actually, your depiction of liberalism is mostly accurate except for the motivation part. I don't think it's about absolving sins. I also don't think that economic mobility is the main objective. This again speaks to the

No, but the resolution is terrible for sharing screens. The other thing I should have mentioned is that I'm also concerned with sharing a hangout to YouTube for later viewing. That, right now, is only supported for 480p, which is compl

Will be interesting to see whether this will allow for realtime streaming of your desktop for "webinar" application. That's a market I would love to see a little disruption in from a big player.

You can't really "measure" or double-blind test how well this thing kills people. Only if you have well developed taste can you appreciate the finer details, the warmth, the clarity, the fidelity.

Thanks - uhm... so... since I won't see that message, I still need to know whether I'm now in line for being considered as a beta tester? ;-)

Same misconception as the author. You didn't want to make games for children. You wanted to make money making games for children. That's fine - it's just not really what "do whatever makes you happy" is about.

He also underestimated another crucial fact: What he thought would make him happy didn't turn out to make him enough money to be happy. So in the end, it didn't make him happy for two reasons. Really doesn't warrant the t

I've just sent my "notify me", but the response left me a little uncertain: "We’ll get back to you as soon as we launch in Germany.". So... is this what I need to do to get into the beta? Or is there something else
