[go easy on the non-tech guy] A couple I've thought up but never had the time or know how to make. If you want to take any of these and run feel free, if you'd like to talk more about any my email is in my profile: -A dating app that more c

Why is everyone in such a rush to compare this to facebook? I believe emmett was just trying to point out that OP's argument was essentially "they're not going to make $1.5b ever, trust me". Which frankly sounds a lot like "No wireless. Les

First, if you want to talk Darwinism you need to get your terms right. "It's not the strongest who survive, nor the most intelligent, but the ones most adaptable to change." Charles Darwin. By (incorrectly) calling someone who isn't rich "w

I call bullshit on your malarkey. I get not liking "the 1%" but you do the exact same thing by using the word "handouts". You swapped one co-opted term for another. One can only assume you really mean "welfare" when you say "handouts", and

You're missing the point. First nice =! expensive. It's a subjective term meant to allow you to find your own definition. The whole point is one you seem to be in need of (don't focus on "specs" or "definitives" and just find a bed and bedd

I hate to be the debbie downer here. I love her ambition and ability to market herself, but when you are attempting to sell yourself as a visual & UX designer shouldn't your design be original? Both this page and her portfolio are blata

Wait, so are you claiming that upon receiving the study material these kids had to have known they were cheating? Or they knew they were cheating upon receiving the test? Because the former is preposterous. It was a pre-fab "teachers" test

hmm, now this is new information that in my quick reading i missed. though even with this i would side with what sph said below. The fact that 200 students (and not something like 10) got the guide tells me the original act wasn't one inten

oh give it a rest with the "my(older) generation acted with morals/humility/respect while your(younger) generation has no morals/shame/responsibility" it's an old script that gets repeated with every generation around the time when the new

These students (or their parents) are paying UCF to provide them with this education and then to certify their education with a diploma. The responsibility does not fall to the students to inform a professor that due to his own laziness the

What you don't believe the defensiveness was merited? The top comment on HN (with 136 karma) was run4yourlives decrying his generation's lack of humility and saying "You are not fucking special in any way shape or form." You mean to tell me

First - do everyone a favor and throw this "If I say bullshit enough people will think I'm good at spotting it" mindset out. While you're at leave the "there's a lot of loser talk in this thread" talk to trolls. Second - Why in gods name wo

I'd say your response added just as much noise and introduced a degree of intolerance not necessary to the conversation. Let the non-helpful comments die a silent lonely death, no need to get haughty about it.

if i were you, i'd be grateful that people chime in with any thoughts at all that's a bit much don't you think? HN is a community based around learning about/discussing this exact sort of thing. he asked an earnest question and felt he re

I'm going to have to disagree with just about everything you wrote there... However, twitter isn't about engagement. It's not about communication. It's about broadcasting 1->many Why does "communication" only count on a 1 to 1 sense?

This is exactly what Friedrich Nietzsche was talking about when he said; "160. One no longer loves one’s insight enough once one communicates it." [Beyond Good & Evil (1886)] The story is that Nietzsche returns from his mid-day walk hav

wow i have to say i'm a little astonished at the emotional (and largely negative) responses from people to Arrington simply announcing to his readers that he is back. he wasn't trying to start a flame war. he simply let his readers know wha

Yes. Or at least they have the propensity to become more so than others. My evidence is very very subjective... based on watching children (ages 2-5) you see some have a natural inclination towards order and logic. They love legos, lining u
