What we've learned today: Most commenters on Hacker News don't know what freedom of speech is. They also don't understand, or maybe don't care, about the responsibility of society to protect minority groups. They also ha

I'd love to see a study on privilege and libertarianism because that would explains the views of so many on Hacker News. If your field of study is computer science, you don't get to tell climate scientists that have extensively st

Adobe Brackets, an actual free open-source editor, along with Brackets-Git ( https://github.com/zaggino/brackets-git ) does much of the same.

These open movies are great technical demos for Blender but I haven't been impressed with the writing. The stories have been flat, emotionless, poorly paced and lacking in any kind of mass appeal. I'd love to see Blender put out a

I lived close to that area for a while and know people that have moved to North Dakota to work. They're coming right out of high school and immediately making tons of money. A lot of it is wasted on motorcycles, TVs, trucks, alcohol an

If enough large games were released for OS X, even as a port, Apple may put a little more effort in. And yes, the graphics cards are weak (mine is an Intel HD 4000.) But look at the Mac Pro. They invested a ton on engineering it for perform

That's great news but I'd love some Mac support too.

I love how arrogant writers think that if you want GMO labeling suddenly you're anti-science or a nut-job. Personally, I'd like the entire food chain carefully documented and put online so data could be gathered, trends could be e

I bought CodeKit 1 a while ago and about a week later he announced he had been working on CodeKit 2. Basically, my purchase was immediately abandonware. He's released no new features and very few updates (just library updates) since th

It's strange that Adobe Brackets is open-source but GitHub Atom is closed. I would have guessed the opposite, based on the companies that made them.

This is just an ad for scoutzie. I've never heard of them and I'm sure the "top designers from around the world" haven't either.

A good example of this behavior recently has been Walmarts big push on groceries. I saw it first hand when they did it in a small community I lived in. I also worked at Walmart as one of my first jobs so I had an inside look at things inclu

I really don't trust Amazon having a monopoly on any market especially one I care about as much as books. While they still have competition, things seem to be going in their favor. Even more so after the justice department handed them

I really like Brackets. And it's got some great plugins already. I've set mine up with a visual git sidebar, markdown preview, themes and a mini-map like Sublime Text has.

Really? I haven't used Basecamp in years (I work alone most of the time) but last time I did it seemed well thought out and stable. I have read "Getting Real" and have seen a number of their articles they've posted on cu

That's not funny or educational or even interesting. It looks like jealousy or unfounded hate. I can't really think of anything 37signals has done to warrant this. They make good products and treat both their employees and custome

I like the design language Microsoft came up with for Windows Phone. So I bought a Nokia Lumia phone. I quickly regretted it. This was before Windows Phone 8 was released but we were promised "many of the features" with Windows Ph

As a designer living and working in Atlanta I often forget how much engineering talent we have locally. I've been to the Georgia Tech campus for a few events and was impressed with many of the students (and former students) I've m

I doubt somebody that gets upset about a small company protecting their idea with a patent (that he hasn't even seen) would actually buy software from them anyway. His example ("prior art") wasn't remotely relevant. So m

I'm confused, are you implying it's not okay for these criminals to be brought to justice, in accordance with various international laws, when their parent state acts belligerent and refuses to cooperate? These people hurt others

The nuclear apologists are out in full force today. I love how you guys, mostly computer programmers, are so much more informed than experts in nearly every other field of science existing. It must be amazing to be that smart.

The guide, as well as this stunt, is laughable. The comparisons aren't even close to being the same value. And I wonder if Apple could sue the FSF for outright lying: nothing about the Macbook Pro is planned obsolescence. You can use i

I'm glad all of these threads happened. Now I know that Coinbase isn't a reputable company and I should never trust them with my money. All of these posts show the truth, even when YC posts things like this: http://blog

As someone that has a lot of Apple products I'm glad they have competition. I don't think any one company should have a monopoly on the modern touchscreen smartphone concept. That being said I wish more Android fans would accept t
