I run a language learning site / web app that is totally free, no ads too, going on about 8 years now. It's for one specific language that has not had much attention from the software community but could use it. I've never tr

Reddit can't even handle copy-pasting into the comment box unless the cursor is at the end of what's typed already. It starts to run up my i7 if I have just a few of those comment boxes open at once. Navigating back to the list of

The examples you chose (TCP/IP, airplanes, etc.) show pretty clear willful misinterpretation, and I think you know that.

the same is true within the styles of music that I like. It was compounded by the fact the other centralized file hosts, like Rapidshare and Mediafire, were forced to delete TONS of content on the same day that Megaupload folded. There are

Are you in Canada? I wasn't familiar with Tim Hortons, but Wikipedia indicates its a Canadian bakery chain. Come on down to the US and you will find 600 calorie donuts aplenty.

It stands out because "regardless" and "irregardless" are adverbs, while the others you listed are all adjectives. And it does fit the pattern of negating the root morpheme.

MJ is a billionaire and most of that is not directly from his NBA salary. I'd take financial advice from him.

True, if the process just involves asking the author then I have no issues with that, and it should be easy to resolve. I do think it is difficult for anyone other than the author to answer that question though. For me, only the "red-h

By calling yourself an outsider, I'm assuming that you don't speak British or American English? If so, you're not really in a good position to judge grammaticality.

LSD absolutely requires increasing doses if you take it more than once every 1-2 weeks. When you take it daily, your tolerance sky rockets. There is also cross tolerance between LSD and other tryptamines/phenylethylamines. There is a w

> If we're getting legal marijuana, we're losing something else. This doesn't follow at all. The downside to legalization of all recreational drugs is minuscule compared to the societal benefit.

Are you being sarcastic? And I recognize your username, do / did you post on a forum dedicated to a certain music genre?

Thanks! I've been on HN for 4 or 5 years though, I just make a new throw-away every few months. It will take a lot more than that to scare me off!

Interesting. Slang like "pot", "dope" and "herb" sounds older to me. When I hear "dope" I usually think of heroin. Now the kids are calling it "weed", "tree", "dro", &quo
