I agree. I don't think the point is that generated content is boring, but that HG's generated content depth was quite shallow. As stated in the article, if they doubled the size of the art team, they could have had hundreds of t

Poor business model: I refer to their freemium offering which is poor compared to competitors. Security: If you think that's a judgement call, fine, if you think that the dropbox hack is a judgment issue. Pricing: For Joe Bloggs, 100GB

I'm struggling to understand why. It has a very poor business model, security issues and the storage for the price just doesn't add up. Google Drive or iCloud are far easier to set up, cheaper, and has oodles more space.

I can't imagine any sane person actually blames him for his work and not the company that decides to put one developer in charge of writing such an important game in such a short space of time.

An impressive demo, but I'd like to see this being done with photos of varying quality and see how the performance fairs. I've got a Chrome extension that I could probably use this with...

This is not new information though. Every page on the QuicksBlog contains the sponsorship information at the bottom of the page.

Way to go, Tim! It's a shame that he had to 'come out', but I hope that being the CEO of one of the world's biggest companies will help the LGBT cause.

I agree that living conditions will undoubtedly be hard at first, but will only improve from there. The first humans to live on Mars will almost certainly already have gone through many months/years of rigorous on-Earth testing to ensu

It's odd but sex is not mentioned even once as a legitimate release.

Your comment makes the fallacious assumption that all sex workers are breaking the law. The law on prostitution is VASTLY different between countries and states.

Not using version control in a development environment would be reckless. If you hate version control, you're either a bad developer, or you're using the wrong system.

It's a shame that they're not producing valid HTML.
