It looks like they are the only ones with the resources to do it, so long as Google doesn't threaten their main source of income. Ubuntu doesn't look like it will fly

Could you kindly provide evidence of the threats are you referring to? You are simply saying that the officials should be taken on trust alone? An American citizen who open admits committing a crime gets more due process than a harmless chi

It only shows how racist the American political and judicial system inherently is. America is the only civilized country where the state sanctioned murder of foreign nationals is called an execution. Principles are principles and they exten

A framework is like a puppy. It is not just for Christmas - its for life.

It is mostly greed. If it is ignorance it is usually an editorial decision. I mean, you can't have idealistic and conscientious writers influencing public opinion against Big Co if you need their ad spending, can you?

There is a difference between needing extra money and wanting extra money? Does Comcast want it because they need it to deliver higher speeds to the customers, or are they claiming to need because neither customer nor content prov

What are these costs? Are the bottlenecks at the junction between the ISP and the customer, or at the junction between the ISP and the content provider? Did Comcast have purchase and install new equipment to boost Netflix speeds, or did the

The usual and expected hatchet job from a main stream media stalwart. Neglecting the fact the fact digging up the ground to place cable, which is what the customer is actually paying for is entirely different from wiring up interconnects a

When is this insanity going to end? Javascript has been the biggest waste and diversion of programmer talent since computers were invented. Billions of dollars have been wasted trying to fit every square peg there is into a Javascript round

Are you serious? What planet are you living on? When did you get the idea that big companies play nice? So long as they can negotiate the fines that go with their misdeeds they will play dirty, assuming they get prosecuted in the first plac

Samsung seems to be a very 'American' company. Is there anything they do that a lot of big American companies don't do? Their only crime seems to be being big enough to beat an American company at its own game. If Apple wants

I disagree with this. If the hobbyist knows that the code may be used in a critical environment then the hobbyist should withdraw the code or make it very clear its suitability for some task has not been tested. It is rather like asking som

None of these new languages come with a decent usable IDE. When will a new language be developed that also provides the Smalltalk developer experience out of the box?

If you are white your son is mixed-race not black. Why does the notion of whiteness exclude any racial mixture when black does? Why should whiteness be exclusive? If the writer is serious about racism a good start should be to admit that yo

What is it with HN commenters and their demented ability to send topics completely of track? I would have thought someone might have examined the code or what Linus is trying to implement and comment about it. But here we have threads about
