Do you have an example of a bad idea in Wordpress that has a real-world impact on a sizable portion of its userbase?

I agree they are not exclusive, but I can see how my comment suggests they are. There's no harm in people doing both, and I agree they're more likely to vote if they participate, but mostly only due to correlation and not causatio

This is why when I vote, I put a lot of weight on those who advocate campaign reform and voting reform.

Having access to every communication made by most of the population is a hugely powerful tool. People in power want to stay in power. They know they can run these surveillance programs with impunity, so why not do it? It doesn't cost t

I think you are taking my post too literally, but please feel free to explain further.

The issue is not a lack of awareness. The vast majority of the voting-capable population has heard, to at least some extent, that the NSA/others are surveilling communications. The issue is either they don't care, they agree with

Are you concerned about privacy in your own country? You should be voting for leaders who don't allow the US to put their fingers in your pie. As an individual you should be taking steps to protecting your online activity and data.

I'm not sure what this is supposed to do. You're showing a congress a list of people who disapprove of privacy violations. Then what? Congress knows people disapprove and they don't seem to care. I dislike slacktivism like th

This is a really unproductive way to respond to someone and is discouraged on HN.

They're really selling the ability to draw on pages. Who needs that?

TrueCrypt doesn't support EUFI which pretty much all laptops use these days.

Patrick McKenzie (patio11) is pretty cool. I like his transparency. He writes really useful things. His writing about salary negotiation is probably the single most useful thing I've ever read. Lots of other stuff he's covered I h

I'm surprised there are not more people on HN who don't use Dropbox due to NSA/privacy concerns. Do you really want to worry about all your files, which are probably your most valuable ones, being out in the open to any Dropb

Paypal got $3MM in VC in 1999, which is really what the OP should have said instead of "sold".

I should have said the flat part before an exponential. Like a hockey stick.

Any thoughts on why getmagicnow got such an insane amount of upvotes? Especially when there was so much negativity in the comments.

No growth could mean you're still at the flat part of exponential. Linear means it's definitely not exponential.

You can opt out and this won't be a problem. Tell them you can't lift your arms over your head and they won't even pat you down.

I wonder if the pilot gets charged expenses for stuff like this - either by the coast guard or the cruise ship that picked him up.

Not sure there's enough drama to really make this a good movie. There is some drama and bickering and Romero leaving when he got bored but that's about it.

This is probably one of my favorite books, but I'm not much of a reader. It's just really cool to see two really enthusiastic guys doing what they loved back in the wild west era of game development and becoming extremely successf

Unless you put huge bars over your windows and have a reinforced door frame/door/lock, it takes all of 30 seconds to break your way into a home anyway. Deadbolts are false security, even if electronic.

He's given what is in my opinion a very reasonable work load. I say that because I have the same job and work on the same sorts of projects.
