Superficially speaking, it's a great way to scare a generation of to-be parents or those considering becoming parents into behaving responsibly. Personally, coming from a background where family members go to n-th…
Think about Galileo. For every stereotype you cite, I can quote exceptions and make it a circular argument. You did lump every "smart person" in your argument and I wanted to call you out on that. No ad hominems there,…
OK, as per your theory of conformism, smart people want to be accepted as smart by other smart people. That is why they are atheist in the current times. The fallacy of this argument is so transparent in that smart…
This is just wrong philosophy masquerading as science or skepticism. The question of lightning finally got solved by science and there're always things which are beyond the explanation of current science and technology.…
anyone who can understand probability in a half-decent manner wouldn't believe in god.
There's a rider to that headline. The effect is in UK, not the US. Here in the US, I do find that in the entry-level employers are more than willing to recruit people who get on-the-job training. That said, I hope they…
Hugely informative article. A sarcastic thought just popped into my head. To make a snide remark: at least we Europeans don't do "Procreation for recreation."
LOL, the direction in which this conversation turned is funny.
Man was a genius! He hacked culture. Fondly remembered, badly missed.
Dude was high as a kite when he wrote that.
this isn't hacker news, it shouldn't even be here.
Great article. Yes, I do believe the language you think in and speak affects the way your thought progresses. I had an interesting discussion following this article at work and a colleague of mine who is a non-native…
That was a well thought out post. In addition to my previous comment posted here, http://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=217636 I forgot to mention that Yahoo is quite big in the non US, BRIC (Brazil Russia India China)…
Sorry but I got to completely disagree with Arrington's analysis. Yahoo is a media portal and they do graphic ads in search pretty well too. Where Yahoo went bust was in trying to usurp Google's lead in search. That is…
very interesting. thanks for the post.
well isn't it better to just ignore TC? I mean it's easy to critique something, where once we had insight all we have now is backchatter. And seriously, this doesn't deserve to be on YC.
May work for blue collar jobs. Certainly not for any 60k plus jobs. The idea sounds second only to making videos for getting hired.
My angry response is: Nonsense. They can shove their internet where the sun doesn't shine. Rationally speaking: These blokes were given a free rein and tax breaks by Clinton to develop sturdy networks capable of…
Congrats Mr. and Mrs. PG.
techcrunch, the sideshow of valleywag.
Stunningly true, although the time scale has increased. What we get these days via TV and print is gossip that parades as news. I turn to the web to get actual news and for this I visit websites of the news dailies in…
Great insightful article. Top notch. Thanks for posting quality stuff.
That was a very good writeup. Yes, cities do mould people. What I am excited about in the Bay Area is the possbility of success and recognition. The thing here is, if you are good, you will most probably and in all…
I'm not sure I agree with that. There's always colleagues and then there are friends. There are colleagues who are friends too. From my experience the corp world is good to you upto when you are useful for them. In…
I thought this was common knowledge. For those who are used to eating with an hour of getting up, the breakfast regulates the energy levels in the day. So it makes sense to align all the meals with a breakfast schedule.…
