That would be quite convenient... A little too convenient?

Enhancing the rules is the real rub here. They could exert more and more control, and since it would be gradual, people would be less likely to bail than if it had happened all at once.

Please don't make comments like this. You haven't made any points about the post itself; you're just trying for a laugh. HN is not meant for that sort of thing; it's a slippery slope that leads to less intellectual discussion on the site.

When I saw the title, I thought they'd figured out a way to make use of something other than helium, but I guess I was wrong. I was thinking maybe they built self-resizing vacuum chambers in order to reduce the weight/volume ratio. Like, th

I find it strange how the writers assume only Earth-like life would evolve on another planet. They speak in terms of bacteria, plants, animals... It doesn't make any sense to me. Out of the 3.5 billion years that the planet has sustained li

Bejeweled is a Tetris clone in some ways. They're all "puzzle" games, check out how similar Bejeweled is to Tetris Attack or Meteos.

The benefit is that people are not as desperate, so you don't have people stabbing each other over $20.

Because touch-screen typing, and seeing the phone's wrong answers about what you meant EVERY time, isn't incredibly frustrating. ;)

Maybe we can idolize him and not seek to become him, but try to be somewhere in the middle.

Yes. There have always been parents that are simply children who got older before they got wiser.

I'm pretty sure it's a useless question. You can use debit cards as credit cards and vice versa.

Because it is defending the status quo. Everything that was said is true, but nothing was said that didn't defend the old perspective. It happens a lot - you defend an opinion you had, and when you come up with some good evidence in your fa

I think the media is portraying it this way because there are a lot of people who get into fields and do work they way they're "supposed to", i.e., told to by peers and bosses, rather than, as this kid did, actually going through and figuri

Well, sure, but you're coming at it with the perspective that there's some reason the old worldview should be right. Couldn't it be possible that you're like those that were arguing there was NO WAY the Earth could revolve around the sun?

Wow, has HN been taken over by business types already? Don't you think Mayer has enough capital, connections, reputation, experience, etc. that if she started a company to do what she wanted, how she wanted, it would be completely different

I still think you can have professional disagreements and make a compromise without being uncourteous and unprofessional. Of course, it's harder when the other party isn't being professional, but it's still possible.

You can be interesting without forcing your perspective on others. You don't have to tell other people they're wrong in order to tell them how you feel, though it often happens with nerds like us.

Hahaha, if only I could tell whether this is irony or genuine.

This experience is part of the process that will get him off his "fucking" high horse. Why blame a person's ignorance on the person, rather than their upbringing? Ignorance has to be resolved somehow.

I think you are mistaken - red objects bounce red light back. They absorb the other colors. I think you were just trying to be a smartass with this reversed light thing, so you were downvoted. :\ Anyways, just try to have a more serious int

Eh, I think some of these are circumstantial. The dating one probably applies to a very specific type of person. This is the one that does it for me: Why are even some affluent parts of the world running out of fresh water? Because if they

Blue grass eh? What the hell? I have never heard of such a thing, and I suspect the people who downvoted you hadn't as well. Also: >Why are Europeans White? Because none of them are Wong :-) and there not actualy white. This is not the

This happens a lot though. For example, the alleles that keep domestic cats and dogs friendly are from juvenilizing mutations. These mutations also make the ears floppy. It's called "neoteny". The same thing happened when the Russians domes

The burgers are addictive, man. The craving, the feeling of being overcome by the desire to consume when you get one, the shitty feeling you get afterwards and yet still continue to eat it - that's addiction, bro. And like the other guy sai

You can tell how much the writer doesn't believe a single Goddamn word he says. Vagary, exaggerated emotion, all for what? Some device I can't even find one cool thing about. This was written for a boss, not for you and me.

Mods - could you stop changing post titles?
