I think you misplaced the words "you thought". How do you get into MIT without being smart enough?

It was a few years back that FF was so sluggish in linux. (fast in Debian now) That was the time I tried Opera. The difference in bootup time was like night and day, and it was quicker rendering certain pages, but in the long run those page

For those who go straight-to-comments on HN (myself included): Users first play a series of games with cartoon spiders, which start out as cute and harmless-looking but gradually become more realistic. One early task involves helping a spi

One day, pal. I believe it will become possibile too. There are various upsides and downsides to humans achieving self engineering, I realised a terrible one recently - people would truly have nothing that belongs to themselves.

It's hard not to have a crush on the japanese when you can relate to all this. I recently walked a man to his destination for 10-15 mins, because giving directions / pointing on his map "left too much room for error" as

"The squashed, wonky, and weird glyphs of Comic Sans have been beaten into shape while maintaining the honesty that made Comic Sans so popular." It's half as honest. It's dilute Comic Sans. It's the diet coke of c

I understand the spectrum to be honest, but I think in trying to get the rest of the world to understand ASD, you can't start off too deep. In the article it seems autism is now interchangeable with ASD, so we're losing even a bin

Actually I got the same impression from the article. I'm not American, but I know MIT is one of the finest unis in the world, and if they allowed anonymous PC logins and the journal site itself just took email registrations, those are
