For me, Feedly did fill some of the niche there, but it does not have that Reader or whatever next community was there to have "share with friends and discuss" part. But HN covered that part a bit too

Geez Walter, you are full of surprises... When did you manage to do THAT? (wikipedia does not have any other info, so I assumed you went to computer industry pretty much immediately after your aerospace eng degree...)

This is a nice summary actually. (btw, you can read it to techy-but-not-in-the-field and still get the same look. I am not sure if I should be sad or proud from the fact that I understood 90% of what you have said without google-fu...)

Stock market lost connection to "people" long time ago. It is all big funds and algos, small investors who want to manage their own money are not even visible. Quite a lot action happens in pre and after-hours as well (look at the

I would agree for all of them. But, from personal experience - productivity dives down really badly the moment code base have grown in size considerably. Adding more people makes it even worse, since most of these people start to come in w

Yeah, and the first thing I did this morning is to reenable it in order to access 5-year old cable modem. The "on-for-all" or off-for-all" feels kind of dangerous, it should be something I can enable for 192.168. . for examp
