Additionally, why can't we play Dungeons and Dragons and watch football? I heavily enjoy both. Not to mention Fantasy Football, which is a strategy nerds dream, that they can actually play with their non-nerdy friends. Come to think of it,

I'm loving reading all your comments about your process. Would you mind sharing some advice on writing your first ebook? What kind of roadmap should you aim for? Who should you have edit it? Should you? How much? Should you pay someone to d

Everyone seems to be completely missing something PG made abundantly clear. Black swan farming is not what YC tries to do . They don't only swing for the fences. PG simply illustrated why and how it makes the most business sense . He says

I'm sure this is one of the things you're least interested in, but there are JPEG artefacts visible in your logo, pretty badly.

Ok, many have these quotes have been previously picked apart, so I'm going to focus on one particular one. Please, do not mistake this as a commentary on patent infringement, but rather the sheer inanity of some of these jurors' statements:

Yes, but does the fact that "nothing bad has ever happened" mean that "nothing bad will ever happen"? As a developer, I'm familiar with the fickleness of software. What happens when we see HFT algorithms error in unison? What have we not

I think one of the goals with providing brief, easy to read summaries can (and should) be expanding the number of people who care what is in the TOS.

To be fair, neither is exactly terminology familiar with the average user, who I think they're trying to reach out to here. Both are clever, but known mostly by avid Internet users or nerds.

While this is wondeful, ZDNet misses something huge picked up on Ars. "The FCC concedes that Verizon may charge $20 per month for customers who retain grandfathered unlimited data plans." http://arstechnica.com/gadgets/2012/07/tethering-

Oh wow. Incredibly prescient on most points. Out of context, much of the description of it's strengths sounded like those of Google (at least, those of Google within the past few years). In the same vein, many of the problems it mentions fo

After some thinking, I'll go ahead. "On Happiness" addresses some life/purpose/possibly religious issues, so "your mileage may vary". That was the only section of my graduation speech that addressed happiness, but you're welcome to read the

They teach that everywhere . Just graduated high school here, most of my peers still use it. They even taught a special method for three term polynomials. Algebra II is the worst taught class of them all. People spend years after it still

It was a section of a longer work, which explored human purpose, so I apologize if the abbreviation makes it lose some of its meaning. I don't actually want to share the whole text at this point (some of it is a bit personal), but, on the o

I'm glad I could help somewhat. Believe it or not, that's my high school graduation speech, that I delivered a month of two ago. A lot of that lesson was actually driven by the college acceptance process, as well as witnessing a parent do t

I know that this may just sound like telling you what you've always heard ("Just be happy!") but I'm going to quote my graduation speech, because in it I tried as hard as I could to express a lesson I learned about happiness. "As I’ve said

I think that's something we as a community forget. It's ok to feel proud of being good with your tools. It is fun . As long as we don't turn it into a "holier than thou" situation, it's neat to have an editor that you have such mastery o

Do that many people still use Visual Basic? Honestly, I'd like to know. I'd think surely that group of people would be on C#/.NET?
