Pretty sure most immigrants do not want to be "integrated".
Probably the lack of recognition is due to it making money. Being profitable is so "old economy".
Should you really be able to patent anything in a water pistol or nerf gun though? Protecting the name of course is one thing. Nerf and supersoaker are brands. But I don't think anything within the toys should be…
You're not creating anything though. If you print money, you're just devaluing all the current money, and stealing from people who already have money. I'm not convinced twitter has created anything really valuable. Or…
This should not be on hacker news. Who really cares about random teenagers throwing hissy fits anymore? There is no "anonymous". If you didn't see it, I'd recommend the final episode of "IT Crowd", where an "anonymous"…
AWS isn't the issue. It's poorly engineered software. Probably using some fashionable backend, instead of tried and tested battle worn efficient software. Another example would be Reddit's mammoth hosting bill.
If you print some more money is that wealth?

No, we shouldn't bother trying to plug those leaks. Current situation: * You request website A, which includes 3rd party code from C. C drops a cookie * You request website B, which includes 3rd party code from C. C…
Good. This recent war against cookies is futile and silly. If you visit a website (Assuming you don't go via some anonymizer proxy), they can track you, and they can pass your details to any 3rd party who wishes to also…
If you haven't seen it, I'd recommend watching "An idiot abroad". It's a great travel show with Karl Pilkington. He goes to foreign lands and tells it how it is.
Yes I am complaining about the £280m send to India. There are a lot of other causes closer to home that would benefit greatly from it.
So you believe that the current British, should be paying money for crimes committed by their ancestors? Personally, I don't think people should pay for other peoples mistakes, even if they happen to be born in the same…
Thanks, I copy and pasted the wrong bit. But the point stands.
I don't think that's true at all. I think the majority of the UK see a space program as a fairly useless endeavour - big boys playing with their toys. The UK does certainly see sending millions of pounds overseas in…
As stated elsewhere, foreign aid from the UK to india is £280m. But I'm glad that's such a miniscule amount to you.
Yes apologies. I copy and pasted the wrong bit from a badly written gruaniad article. The point stands though. Whether it's billions or millions, it's still a ton of money which we shouldn't be giving them in aid.
One of the bigger questions is international aid. "Since 2007 India has been the world's largest recipient of recorded remittances from abroad. In 2010 these inflows were worth $54bn (£35bn). UK foreign direct…
There's a lot of lag for a few people in a chatroom. Looks fun apart from that though.
Some people are born with good genes, intelligence, money, muscles, height, amazing good looks, etc etc Some aren't. Life is certainly not, in any way equal, and it's idiocy to pretend it is. We are all born with…
Sounds to me like you have an irrational fear of cancer and/or death.
All lives are not created equal. That's just bs. Of course not all lives are created equal. For example if I had to pick between the lives of Einstein and Hitler, I'd pick Einstein.
Of course it does. I use the internet to generate money.
That's an insane choice. Do you really value raw lifespan over quality of life?
