I don't see what you're hinting at. I'm not their target audience.

That's what these list things do regularly. They're just linkbait with either bullshit or obvious advice.

And that would be better, the world could do without a trillion photo apps and dazed kids trying to be businessmen.

"Decentralized", so it centralizes the functionality of many services. Okay then. You've bitten off more than you can chew by going against Flickr/Youtube/Soundcloud. You don't really offer anything they don&#x

All of those are, obviously. Don't try to avert the issue by redefining words.

- A paradoxical claim of "bad is good" in the title. Off to a good start. - The content is some neverheard's blog post with no substance to back up the claim. Getting there. - Analogies, personal stories, vaguely "motiva

Yeah, what's up with the trend of maximum black-on-white contrast with a huge font? Do people out there think it looks good, or is it just a default layout they haven't bothered to change? It hurts my eyes, especially at night, an

That's no excuse for an $800 price tag. It just means they're charging customers for their bad decisions (as in not using others' hardware).

Except it's not "new and bold", it's literally Ubuntu on a smartphone for far above the market price. Add some marketing buzzwords about how it will revolutionize computing and people start seeing clothes on the emperor.

Haha oh wow. They're charging hundreds of dollars to add a free OS into a smartphone. And they expect to get 32 million just for the promise. Someone lock these people up before they do some real damage.

You're setting me up for a trap with the list thing - if I linked somewhere you'd simply say it was racist data and question the validity of the sources. Instead I'll go for the route of scientific analogy. If dogs have ra

Human races are not a matter of belief. Look at the people around you, look at different cultures and their trends across centuries. You're one of those people who could take a lesson from this article.

Remember when a "bootstrapped startup" was simply called a "company"?

Even after watching it, I don't get what it is. Like, yeah it's supposed to help high school students familiarize themselves with commercial game development, but how ? Do they visit your high school and hold a presentation? If i

These sort of articles are definitely the worst part of HN. Take some common practice, invent dumb rules against it just to be contrarian, publish and get people fighting against each other.

This is such a dumb argument. People say "drug" isn't a meaningful classification because it mixes different categories of substances, and in the next sentence they're equating coffee with LSD, apparently to defend the u

Or because they don't see immediate value in it, as typical programming isn't done in ASM nowadays. I think it's worthwhile just to "demystify" computers, but since embedded programming, demos and retro gaming are p

What a shitty article. This is the level of discussion it deserves.

Haha, it's almost like some detective short story. Surprisingly it wasn't as hard to follow as I thought. Maybe I'm starting to get good at this Computer Science thing.

Suddenly the front page is Snowden Snowden Snowden. Hacker News is even worse than Reddit at latching to news-of-the-minute.

Yeah, the moderation gets on my nerves. They might just lock the question before you have time to explain yourself better. And by then, they've already edited your question to what they falsely believed it was asking, even if there was

I don't see what's insightful or "brilliant" about this. Quite common sense about working with technology, really, just packed in metaphors.

Whoa, this caused the second BSOD I've seen since Windows 98. When I started messing with the options, the windows just flashed wildly for a while, some popup about ATI Radeon driver errors was struggling to spring to existence, and then ev

Final Fantasy Tactics Advance (for GBA) is the spiritual successor. It has a similar job system and gameplay to an extent, but you might consider it easier or even toned down. Regardless, I think it has a bunch of unique touches for a tacti

The way he just keeps pushing further and further pleases the hacker inside me. A recommended read for sure.

I'm intrigued by ROM hacking (and low-level computing in general). So far I've been limited to reading memory dumps on emulators while only making little sense of it, but I'll have to give it a better shot. Using Gameshark and checking your

Why was the title changed? It was much more descriptive of the appeal of the link (the developer's response). Now it looks like the bug report itself is the focus.

He was talking about the chart in question, obviously.
