HN has terrible opinions and ideas about exercise. For a group that is generally pretty critical, they are surprisingly naive and uncritical when it comes to exercise. Go figure.
This is still a lot better than working on someone else's (or even your own!) jQuery-only project.
What if you programmed in a different programming language every week or so? Roughly the same result. You'd know a little bit about a lot of languages, but never enough to be very productive, and you'd never build…
This strikes me as underpants gnome logic: 1. Google will allow .edu Google Apps users to activate G+. 2. ? 3. G+ will "dominate" Facebook.
NHL Game Center is even worse—there is NO online cancellation process and don't let you cancel your subscription partway through the season. I live in Canada an pretty much any game that is aired on TSN or TSN2 is…
I cut cable, but now I'm going back to it. Not having cable has been expensive. For sports, the only viable alternative has been services like NFL Game Pass and NHL Game Center, both of which clock in at around $250 a…
Very sophisticated. Almost like magic :)
The upside to you is that your photographs are tagged and categorized in more and more useful ways. Without this suggestion what is the likelihood that you would go back to old albums and tag them in such a way? I know…
I was thinking the same thing. On government contracts we're still required to support IE6 even though we can't seem to find an actual computer running IE6.
It's not just larger organizations. I've seen exactly what you're citing — where even the most trivial objects were injected — in an organization with roughly 5 developers.
This is my biggest complaint as well. The new features of the UI are great, but it still looks pretty bad. There's a lot of white space and very little contrast between elements are groups of elements. The "Compose…
The great thing about the Haskell signature is that if you understand functional programming at all, it's fairly easy to understand, at least in my opinion. Scala's method signature requires knowledge of Scala's brand…
Awesome and also illegal in most western countries.
I can't help but feel that the original list skews a little "nerdy" and aren't really a draw for most people. Some of the arguments are just specious and/or dubious. Privacy & trust? Facebook's privacy controls are…
I think one of the reasons that RoR might seem bigger is because RoR is a much bigger part of the "Ruby experience" than Django is for Python. Rails had a huge hand in making Ruby what it is today and I think you'd have…
Yes, but that's not specific to copyright law, it's a problem with tort law in the US in general (although, admittedly, its abuse is pretty prevalent when it comes to copyrights).
Was it really a scare tactic in this case, though? The copyright holder felt that his copyright had been infringed, so he sent a cease and desist, backed up with the threat of legal action. What should the copyright…
This is a really great textbook. Probably one of the only textbooks I kept around after school.
That really is a much better example. The first example implies some sort of correlation between impulsiveness or lack of self control and a willingness to perform criminal behavior.
It's really, really hard to take an article seriously when it takes an "impulsive" five year old and has him committing statutory rape as an adult. Kind of an unnecessary example, no?
This was roughly my thought too. A social network that will only ever be available to a small niche (iTunes users that purchase music on the ITMS) is hardly social. Last.fm is available to anyone regardless of their…
I can't tell if this is tongue-in-cheek or not, but I'll reply seriously anyway: When I want a carrot I grab one out of the fridge, grab the peeler off of the counter, pull my compost box out from under the sink and…
Is it really that inconvenient to clean a carrot? Just peel it and eat it. I can peel a carrot quicker than most people can even decide what to have at a vending machine.
I'm sorry, but really? It was obvious to me within 5 seconds that I was playing with humans.
The ending isn't confusing, just ambiguous.
