Play with fire and get burned. Sounds like the thugs have started tracking the thief, which would end in blood if caught. Classy stuff here folks, amazed drug dealers and crooks seem "normal" now.

I don't follow your first remark. Are you trying to say that because he said "kindergarten" instead of naming a specific kindergarten that it's no longer threatening or a threat?

If someone is going to physically break into your house and access your money what's to stop them from physically assaulting you until you give them the password? Or just taking the computer that stores the "offline" wallet?

It seems the general consensus believes it was MtGox's fault that they didn't handle the protocol correctly. The only way to spin this on MtGox is to blame their protocol problems on BitCoin itself.

Enjoyment. Some people just like to watch the world burn.

Yes, confidence in a currency is very important to its survival. The crazy volatility, the inability to withdraw sometimes, the competitors, the uncertainty everywhere. Bitcoin is not helping itself.

Why should I be angry? My credit card has been comprimised twice in my life and both times my credit card company contacted me immediately (before I even noticed) and refunded all fraudelent transactions immediately. I didn't have to

Why are you comparing S3 costs to "just" HDDs? HDD's aren't web enabled and require other hardware to run and keep running.

I think you've made the correct move posting here (since it's on the front page). If you don't get rectification this week I would most certainly sue. You shouldn't "feel bad" that they're a start up. T

Right, they automated the manual process of gathering email... which I think is still automation?

(DEVIL'S ADVOCATE) Am I allowed to go to businesses and try to pick the locks, look inside, and then report to the business owner that their lock was pickable? Well... yes, but I'd probably be reported to police. Websites, like l

The "MIT defenders" in this thread aren't trying to say MIT played no part, because they did. So did the justice system, so did the computer cabinet owner, the person responsible for locking it, his close friends to urged hi

Please stop belittling Aaron's intelligence. I know many people on HN feel like they have to defend Aaron's life and want to find someone to blame but he's not an idiot. He knew as well as anyone that actual jailtime would

Why would one use The Anarchist Cookbook to defend themselves against heavily armed cops? I think a gun would be more effective than a tennis ball filled with match heads.

I have a 100 game library of games on Steam that I would love to play on my TV but the SteamBox will only play a tiny percentage of them due to being linux based. Seems great for those new to steam though...

And the web will continue moving fast and soon enough "flat" ui will look dated. This is why it can be themed: https://openui5.hana.ondemand.com/#docs/guide/ThemingFAQ.htm...

Lots of negative comments on HN, surprise surprise. Seems like an enormous amount of code, we should be happy it's now open source for others to use and learn from.

Everything in moderation my friend. Your same analogy can be used with all sorts of non-meat things.

No, killing an animal for food is not as morally wrong as slavery or murdering a person. Are you joking? Animals all over the planet kill each other for food. It's part of life. Farm animals are not people and never will be. It&#x2

Are you a designer (serious question)?

It sounds like you have some eye issues or perhaps it's just aging. Try readability, it's great for older folks. You should avoid magazines though, they often have similar designs yet lack a real world "readability" :)

Unless I'm missing something, just because you can look at the block chain doesn't mean you can track down the individual. Can you explain?

I'm not particularly familiar with this application but I do see some benefits of a cloud IDE. They will enable someone to code anywhere on any computer on any OS without installation and without having to spend time on source control.

Not sure why you think this but the people most in favor of this kind of DRM are certainly not pirates. Also, I don't understand your PS2 comparison - how exactly did the DRM on PS2 enable piracy? It was a poor implementation of DRM

Manipulate? They're a business who is making big boy business decisions. If you don't like their products don't purchase them. They don't have a monopoly, they simply have good products.
