You make leaving a job seem simple. Not everyone can just "choose any moment to leave." People have careers and families.
I agree. Without knowing much about penology, punishment for the sake of punishment seems overused in the US. Her prison sentence is short relative to all those given out because of her acts, but I think prison…
Apparently, the opening part about the internet spawning from a RAND Corporation study is just a myth: http://inventors.about.com/library/inventors/bl_Charles_Herz...
I have never heard anyone herald the Twitter IPO as a sign of economic recovery. The IPO is in the news constantly because it's a minute-by-minute spectacle of wealth lost and wealth gained – not because people think…
San Francisco. That's the Bay Bridge.
I doubt the NSA is foolish enough to make external requests to load images in the emails they read.
Do you have evidence that Larry Page or Google knew about this? How is the CEO of Google stepping down an adequate reaction to a something that Google doesn't seem to be behind?

That's a great quote. Do you have a source? I can't find it online from him.
Wow, what fantastic writing. I often find tech entrepreneurs and HN readers are too obsessed with success and wealth, often explaining away any accusations of greed by claiming it's their "passion" and talking in mystic…
Not all journalism or scientific reporting is about presenting solutions, and pointing out the problems (especially of this severity, if the article is to be believed) is an important step. Furthermore, as the article…
If his underlying point is just "simple is best," then I think we all agree. But he goes on with a tone of distaste about the state of the web, as though everyone is just stuffing their sites with flashy gimmicks these…
Everything kind of looks bad to me now pre-iPhone – the things was seriously years ahead of its time.
And what do you suggest we do for Aaran Stewart? Tough luck? People can handle losing their luggage once in a while. I doubt putting the money it costs to do this (how much is it anyway? Just paying for staff and a…
The author says, "BlackBerrys have never been particularly attractive, cutting-edge, or user-friendly." I've never actually owned a BlackBerry, but I was under the impression that they were some of the best devices…
Saw that too. Thanks!
Can someone elaborate on how secure the underlying algorithms still are? Most of the NSA's "foiling" seems to be done via coercing corporations and side-channel attacks. Are TLS, AES, etc. still thought of as secure?
Public scrutiny? I, for one, don't really care if the NSA does these things, and I don't think most people in the US do. Or do you mean scrutiny from other governments, and people outside the US? Then yes, it seems like…
I'd say any specifics – size, people involved – on such a program could be damaging, and it also gives other nations more ammo in defending their own such programs, by pointing out ours. I know everyone already probably…
Information like this, and some of the other documents that have been released from the Snowden leaks recently, seem to be more than just "whistleblowing" and appear to do serious damage to the US's counter-terrorism…
You can still get to the New York Times by going to their IP address: http://170.149.168.130/
But where in the article does it say anything about forcing him to drop painting to fit in? I think you're reading too much into this.
