However this frustration does entitle us to accurately describe a 99% working service. There are terms for something that works 99 days but on the 100th day makes you feel like gotterdammerung . They are a crappy service , fails QA 101

Look, let's take an example. The microprocessor was invented in the 60s to be the wing controller for the F14. The F14 was rolled out in the 70s and deployed in the 80s, and in service till a few years ago. So the government was funding int

EDIT for clarity: I think Steve Blank has in mind the level of ambition of the stealth fighter program. Such a venture would involve putting in many orders of magnitude more money than YC invests in a single startup. Today's equivalent woul

Do you realize how enormously an MIT degree will help you to "adventure" in future? You will be able to take on many more "awesome projects" for the rest of your life if you know you have secure employability to fall back on when things are

You said "the glorifying of bombing/shooting children at close range. (No, it is not the Israeli side that do that.)" Thereby condemning the whole Palestinian "side" on the basis of unspecified "people". I pointed out that the Israeli side

The facts emerged. You called my posts "lies", "hate", "garbage" and "antisemitism" and made claims backed with no references. I provided references to Israeli and Jewish sources that any reader can check. Here are some more: http://www.i

Why? The alternative to censoring the topic is to let all the facts emerge. berntb can mention Hamas bombing civilians and Jewish expulsions, and I can mention the ethnic cleansing of the Palestinians and Israeli actions against the Occup

You insinuated that my discussion of Hasbara means that I am some kind of "disgusting" Nazi referencing "traditional anti semitic hate propaganda", when I was linking to the Israeli Citizens Information Council's own website. You may find i

This attitude is why "it's a forgone conclusion that any military action on the part of the US or NATO in any capacity means death for hundreds of thousands of Iranian civilians". US soldiers will not give a damn about civilian lives if sai
