Hey, money is more important than ethics or morals to some people. You got a problem with that?

No. I don't trust Facebook, but then again, I haven't trusted Facebook in a long time (which is why I deleted my account). Except that my account isn't deleted even when Facebook said they would after 14 days. That's just one example. But t

Your answer makes me want to quit HN forever and move to the planet Mars where humans don't live.

If even ONE SINGLE CHILD is found and returned back into the loving arms of a parent due to a repurposed 404 page, the initiative is a great success. Don't you think?

Zerply is pretty cool. It needs more templates though (even premium ones). Why is it so slow to release more? Again, I really like Zerply and highly recommend it for creatives.

I'm very sorry you went through that. I actually couldn't finish reading it - too unsettling. I hope you and yours are okay and this is behind you.

The "Thank you Apple" title sounds like a gushing fanboi love letter. I almost didn't read the post (which is quite good, glad I did). I just think the title should be a little more clear (like add a "not" at the end).

A tree won't BS you like some people, and it won't change it's story a year from now. So yeah, you pretty much got it.

Only in places like Hacker News is there a consensus opinion that Facebook is "a new addictive and time wasting form of entertainment who's contribution society is null or negative" You either know that statement is untrue but lie anyway,

Compliments on the domain name Lookmark. Clever. Did you have to buy if from someone, or was it available to register?

Is Facebook dying? Yes, because lately, everyone has been asking "is Facebook dying?". It's a self-fulfilling prophesy. However, I also say yes because many people I know have abandoned their accounts or use their accounts reluctantly nowad

Don't feel bad bro. It's tough out there. We all end up short at one time or another. Chin up.

Identify quickly what your productive hours are and what aren't. For example, I can't seem to hunker down and get sufficiently focused until after lunch. I tried battling it but to no avail. Now, I do other stuff (laundry, errands, physical

"spent 50 years building a surprisingly advanced helicopter out of re-bar, bicycle parts and wood." Quite the MVP. I hope this happens for him.

Thanks for placing the edit note at the beginning of your comment. It's impressive discussion forum etiquette and very thoughtful, since it saves readers like me time. Cheers.

Yeah, but /. was the shiz for a long time. I joined in 1998 and it dominated my online social life for about 5 years. The day of 9/11, the release of Linux kernel 2.4, and when my story submission got published were all memorable events for

Not to be a wet blanket, but I recently increased my hourly rate by $50 and I didn't need to read a book. I just decided to bump up my rates. And I did. If you provide value, and you're good at what you do, why not ask? If it's because you

I'm one of those rare weirdos that actually likes and uses G+. It was my daughter that got me to join but it's a way better experience than FB, and I've been using it everyday since.

I'm talking about the BIG things: our planet and ecosystem, clean water, liberty and human rights, they are all becoming irrepairably broken.

The big lie is we as humans have it all together. That we are the superior species on the planet and we can do what the hell we want. Global warming, destruction of nature, loss of liberty because governments we elect betray us - don't worr

Be a due process server and deliver court documents to respondents. Everyone is suing or getting divorced nowadays, so the demand is there. Heck, you don't even need a car. I started the business in an afternoon and made deliveries on my bi

I would like to die on Mars. Oh brother. How come "shut up and just do it" applies to everyone but Elon? Why does he only have to talk about doing something to be hailed a hero? Start backing some of this stuff up with action Elon.

Most people want a logo designed for thirty to fifty dollars. Some people want ebooks created from word documents under a for hundred dollars. I would expect those prices too if I went through TaskRabbit. I wouldn't expect the designer to

I like it. The site has a Hill Street Blues quality to it, but tougher and darker. That's okay. The cops need to look tough because they are tough. I think the more communication the better. Is it propoganda? Maybe, but I wouldn't work my b

Huh? "The Art of Ass-Kicking" is a righteous name. I think your opinion regarding this is an outlier. In fact, your strong reaction to it proves it's a potent name.
