He has a point though - people look for reasons to not listen, to stop reading and to dismiss arguments that go against what they believe in. Adding fake 1984-esque names and grandiose claims ("turned almost a whole industry again you&

It's humbling to be in my twenties and read about someone who had done so much at an even younger age.

I disagree. I'm a senior a very theoretical university and my friends in the CS department often complain: - "Why should I learn all these sort algorithms? Let some grey beard figure out which one is best for me and wrap it up in sort()" -

I might be wrong, but at first glance, it looks like everyone involved needs to install Hipvite to organize and event. If I am correct in thinking this, I would advise you to make an SMS fallback. It's difficult to organize an event with fr

I thought about this, too. Git would be useful for a lot of different industries - not just programming. Instead of rewriting git, why not give it a user friendly wrapper? Its performance is already incredible and you should be able to use

My blog ( http://rmenez.es ) uses a variant of Syte ( https://github.com/rigoneri/syte ) hosted on Heroku. It looks great and uses Tumblr as a CMS. I highly recommend it.

I think that it's great that this is on the front page of HN. There are a couple of great things we can learn from classics like this. For example, let's talk about how art can provoke some kind of emotion. Specifically, Aristotle discusses

I think that Udemy has a better chance of being big. Coursera is a limited platform and only allows universities to make courses. Udemy allows any expert to do this and allows them to charge for courses. This is awesome because it'll attrac

Before anyone mentions G+ and how difficult it is to replace an existing social network, it's important to consider how lower the barrier of entry is for Twitter. Leaving FB means leaving your pictures and friendships. That said, leaving Tw

I also think that something fails to be art when it is not intended to illicit an emotion reaction from others. Perhaps many of the artists in that exhibit chose things that gave emotion to themselves and made no attempt to create empathy i

Hi. Amateur writer here. In my opinion, there's no such thing as "getting" art. Why? There's a lot of differing definitions of art, but the one I like the most is Tolstoy's: art is about creating an emotional connection between the artist a
