Good thing I have aquired "some sort of hyper-zen keyboard/human symbiosis". Working with a tiling wm (wmii in my case) and some sort of web-browser with keyboard shortcuts - Pentadactyl, UZBL, vimperator or vimium - works fine enough. Bett

But he didnt actually succeed in getting the desired result- the problem was that the statement of the problem was flawed. There obviously is a difference between what Goldstein meant, and what he said.

I dont think he completed the challenge. He found a loophole, so _maybe_ you could say he was successful. In exploiting the rules that is, not in solving the problem that Goldman stated. Still a clever solution, but obviously not what was a

So it's true that everyone who disagrees with you is sexist? I dont think you mean that. Do you mean sexism should be addressed? There I agree, but that doesn't mean that every other point of view is sexist. And thats exactly on of the prob

So writing a rant now is "whistleblowing"? Can I add that to my resumee?

HN readers who dont know the person? I really dont think so. It hardly qualifies as news anyways.

I dont really know why I should care that some, to me random, person, doesn't regard himself a programmer. There really is no valuable information for anyone who doesnt know that person in that post. So why post it? Who would be interested?

The only problem here is that Blizzard didnt encrypt the information in the screenshots. I can understand why they would embed this info, and 9/10 of those cases are ethically sound, but I wouldnt want some random skiddies get this informat

TBH, I doubt that Apple gives a shit- they would just declare it a leak, if they even get prosecuted. But that could be just my tinfoil hat talking.

I'd file that under "domain knowledge". Not only marketers need that though. If I am a coder and develop software that is used in fishing (and thus aquire knowledge about this domain), what does that make me? A maritime hacker?

I wish more authors would check their references like that. Not that I am interested in iOS-development, but still.

>Could it be that you're an anti-apple fanboy? I indeed am, sometimes. And my post was biased, it was a bit of a bait. I can do the apple-fanboy as well though, if the topic calls for it. On a more serious note though, I think Apple doe

That is seriously retarded. You don't use your computer to do actual work, do you? Because the keyboard simply is the best way to do things that are not downloading porn and browsing Facebook.

Wait, are syou serious? I didnt know anyone could be _that_ delusional about Apple. You _really_ think Apple cares about privacy? They aren't "that kind of company"? Where the hell do you get the idea that Apple cares about the morality of

Obviously there are dumb users, so you have to design accordingly. I wish this headline was true though.

Thats just bullshit. The Linux desktop maybe isn't broadly accepted or mainstream, but I dont see the Problem in that- after all Linux remains a system for power users, even if some Distros want to change that. And there really is no bette

I agree, what the actual fuck is supposed to be sexistic here? Can't we all live in peace? And _why_ would you post that on HN anyways? It has nothing to do with technology/startup-things. I dont really care about stuff like this, and if I

Obviously there is no "perfect" Linux-Distro for everyone. I grew to like Fedora, but the perfect Distro to me would've been one I put together myself. And thats why we use Linux after all, isn't it? Because we can choose from so many flavo

That site certainly looks very good, but is awfully slow. I'd have prefered a not so flashy design, and I also think this would have presented the police department better. It does look modern and slick, but not very professional/official.

Sadly thats behind a paywall. Good thing is, that the devs were either incompetent or didn't give a shit. Use this link: >www.ft.com/intl/cms/s/fab58818-e63a-11e1-ac5f-00144feab49a,Authorised=true.html

I'm not against using these buttons, the harmful/annoying thing is that they're used to set tracking cookies. The most simple solution would be to put them on an extra page or only enable them when the user clicks some button. But I'm sure

I just cant take such initiatives seriously if they have Facebook-Buttons...
