Great summary. I think Google's Dalvik is quite similar to the unlicensed, unauthorized, crippled JVM that Microsoft shipped with Windows for a while (in an effort to subvert Java) which drew them into a lawsuit with Sun that Sun won. Googl

Nice job. Feature request: an "all except" option that lets you to enter a list of specific users to ignore -- a HackerUnfollow feature, if you will. Not that there are any annoying people on this site.

Ah yes, ad hominem, the great refuge of the HN peanut gallery. Many want to be judged on their comments alone. But commenting on a website is easy, far easier than any of the things in Gates' career that you claim were easy. So I was wonder

No, what's easy is to sit here from our current vantage point and call what he did easy. So what if he had an upper-middle-class family willing to put him through college. He walked away from that when he dropped out of Harvard and lit out

Insider's tip: there's this little-known spot where all the locals hang out called Pier 39. I would spend all my time there if I were you. It's spectacular.

Thanks for the update on your bowel movements. Might I suggest a savemylife bowel movement tracker widget? That will help your bowel movements go viral.

Ellison is an arrogant douche but he's absolutely right about Schwartz. Schwartz's high-level corporate strategy, as near as I could determine it, was to try to get people to like him by giving everything his company used to sell away for f
