Why are landing pages so incredibly uninformative? In practice, I spend under two minutes to click around and see if can 'get' it. What does it do especially well? What's the syntax look like? If you are brave, what doesn&

I wonder what this is? My very first impression is a standard boot screen. No details. No screenshots. No idea what makes it special outside of "it works". On the first click, it wants access to my calendar. No. Mine. This

Stories need to be good, and that's a problem. Right now, the HN community is voting up more "pop science" to drive people to paywalls. I don't know if its a troll farm or a side revenue, but the number of nytimes.com,

At the risk of being too traditional: coin and courts. For coin, you start with Estonia's electronic signature infrastructure. You have the government work to maintain the sanctity of signature chains, the flow of money, and the visi

Sometimes I need to echo things back to understand. 1. Start-up decides to scrap their current, unhappy business to pivot into a totally different area for which they have no long passion. 2. Start-up develops a product for a small, small

Have a rule. Our republic, and the California state government, is based on rule of law. One group makes the laws, another enforces it, and a third interprets the conflicts. This works. What we have here is a 'no rules' set of

This has been done with hardware. The OLPC was a clean sheet implementation of a computer. It created ideas such as only having a few sizes of screws, shipping extra screws in the case, separating the light bar from the LED screen, innova

History is interesting here. Capitalism, according to Wealth of Nations, has some problems with corporations becoming monopolies. When Teddy Roosevelt was sidelined into the Vice President position, it was partly to sideline the movement t
