This looks really beautiful. The fact that it's open source adds to that beauty. I'm not even interested in physically based rendering and it makes me want to play with it.

I think there is more to it than that now. I think how you market on Twitter is totally unique from the way you do it anywhere else. Success on that medium, depending on the thing you are marketing, can become predicated on a number of thin

I'm was never at the level described by the author, but I left Twitter for the same thing. I too am a creator and I'd get retweets with very little action. That was a huge moment for me because I realized the reality of Twitter. I

I think the real question is this. Why do so many prefer the walled garden? Sure, many will easily dismiss them as "stupid" but this can't surely be the case. iPhone owners make up about 43% of smart phone users according to

I agree, but I'll leave it at that since this is very public. However, I'd counter that the average Senior Engineer salary is 112k/year; according to Glass Door anyway. https://www.glassdoor.com/Salaries/

Don't care if I get crucified for saying this, but #DeleteUber is a distraction. It's taking away valuable cycles that could be spent against, you know, that actual fuckers involved in causing this ban.

You may not like the argument that "proud" Americans wouldn't put up with the same thing, but it's true. Not liking the statement doesn't make reality less real. I see this day in and day out in tech companies with

This is why I leave HN for a few weeks every once in awhile. People in this thread shitting all over the guy, meanwhile back in their own lives, they still have to argue with project managers over the "right" way to get code done.

If you are working in a really shitty software shop with no discipline or process control, this can be a great way to start establishing both, so I say no. If you are developing your own personal website with a static page and bootstrap, pr

As soon as I saw the suit was ZeniMax I dismissed it immediately. They'd sue me for this comment if they could figure out how.

You have to think at some point that this isn't about abortions for this group. With only 3% of PP services being abortions along with the fact that using federal money for abortions is illegal unless the mothers life is in danger, I r

I find myself doing the same thing with HN. Most of the time I love it, but it seems once in awhile the contrarians come out to play, and meaningful discussions drop to zero.

I think this is a great idea. Instead of burdening yourselves with the task, why not establish a set of rules and let curation become democratized. I'd argue that the majority of people would follow the rules. Obviously you'll sti

I've had a 4, 5, 6, and 7 and I've never had this happen once. Your comment seems more like a "LOOK IPHONE DOES IT TOO" than anything meaningful.

My 15 inch MBP is still kicking ass four years later and I haven't had to replace much of anything yet. For me, honestly, when I get home from a long day of fighting with software dev on Windows and *Nix, I kind of want something that

I live in South Carolina and I'm trying to find way to get this into the news. It starts with this, and then other things get added. I think before the state can introduce a bill such as this, they need to prove their claims beyond a s

I too am excited for this, along with the rest of their movement towards adding support for Linux. I know I'll be a die hard C# guy forever (though I still can't help but enjoy learning other tech), but I want a non-windows option

I think it's nice to see this type of analysis. We all know that reflection is slow for most languages, but understanding the why gives me a great sense of how interesting the task of reflection is.
