Whenever I read that "you should be using X", credibility of the author rapidly diminishes for me.

I think this statement is unnecessary. Eich's personal opinion on the matter has never been imposed or interfered with official Mozilla business. It's one of the most ethical companies I know.

I can't imagine Carmack working for Facebook. This is surreal. As Palmer noted in his blog post he was skeptical when Facebook first approached them with the idea. I suppose Facebook eventually made a monetary offer they couldn't

I like Ghostery better. It breaks less websites for me and provides more data on each particular tracker with a source link and a description for the company behind it. Disconnect just shows a title with a number. It has a nicer and more fu

I'd like to offer a different approach - do not organize a separate work environment. Do not build a copy of your day job routine at home. Try to reset your mind off the 9 to 5 work mode schedule. Be free and open to new experience. Le

> I try to save my comments for when it's something really important. Your approach is sound and honorable, but please do not silence yourself out of fear. By doing so you encourage a groupthink behavior on this forum.

I'm sorry to clip your rebel wings, but the US isn't going to start a new Cold War on account of a coup in some Eastern European country. You drastically overestimate the importance of this event for an average American. It's

I suppose if at some point Larry Page himself confirms that they did know all about NSA surveillance and actively participated, people will still find ways to acquit the beloved company :) I'm not sure if it's the force of the &qu

Instrumental in this message for me was this part: There is no honour amongst hackers any more. 10-20 years back a term hacker had a close relation to a certain moral conduct emphasizing freedom of knowledge. Today with a mass market of s

The US has military bases and troops deployed around the world with wars waging in the Middle East and special ops in Africa and other locations. That doesn't seem to bother people. Russia decides sending troops to protect predominantl

The only faith I have in this story is that, perhaps, people will learn from this example and will be able to spot a con man next time when they see one.

MtGox has been lying and scheming all the way, showing complete lack of respect for either their users or Bitcoin community at large. They should have been gone and prosecuted a long ago. I have no sympathy for Mark Karpeles. He's a sh

I've been using Whatsapp for at least 2 years and this is the first outage that I recall. Might as well be a sudden influx of users. Although, knowing Zuckerberg, I equally accept all the "conspiracy" explanations in the thre

I'd like to have a honorable mention of Archlinux here. Arguably, it has the easiest package management out there. To create a package you write a single PKGBUILD file with a few required fields (like pkgname, pkgver, etc) and a bash b

What makes this thread toxic, if you read closely, is your fierce defense of bad grammar all over it.

Good timing to piggyback on the Sochi hate. You may also like to put up this NBC story on the site :) NBC: All Visitors to Sochi Olympics Immediately Hacked http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=waEeJJVZ5P8

Being curious I looked up the numbers. UK death toll: 326,000 military and 62,000 civilian. Russia: 10 million each. "Absolutely titanic" is about right.

I yet to see a single positive report on the Sochi Olympics. If I was a conspiracy theorist, I might think there's a semi-hidden agenda to discredit the games.

It is the license that gives you the right to use the software. How you acquire the software is of little importance, as long as you have (and paid for) the license. It works for Windows as well. It is perfectly legal to use an "illega

I can relate to "coldly professional". Up front, succinct - all good. But I can also relate to people who might have spent 10 or more years in the company. Loyal, motivated, emotionally invested. I think they wouldn't actuall

There's an experimental algorithm on HN that determines how much is a user concerned with karma. Apparently, your karmic anxiety is more prominent than the competition. Hence, the penalty.

Obama's prize was more of a credit for good deeds in the future. Jagland himself (Nobel committee chairman) partly confirmed that. Sadly, it didn't work out. Rather backfired.
