    Isn't this kind of a dumb question? To break it down in simpler terms: Would someone who's gotten a formal education know more about certain topics in a specific domain than someon…

    It'd be ill to do some visualizations on this data. Too bad it doesn't sound too conclusive. Maybe it doesn't need to be? Just educating people on...y'know, "what maybe could have …

    Google's just against poor-quality software patents. As we should all be. Fortunately I think the USPA is doing a halfway decent job of embracing change. Maybe they're just terribl…

    I think they also may be going for some of the maker market as well.

    GoDaddy damages it's brand daily by overcrowding it's servers to the point where they crawl. Hating animals is just the icing on the cake. Haha

    I failed a number of classes because I'd stay up till about 4am every night for a few years straight programming random things for fun and fall asleep in school the next day. Only …

    Haven't yet looked at the link for "learning javascript with object graphs" but it already sounds interesting. Also, I fully concur with your statement about learning other languag…

    1 way to make yourself seem smart: write a post about 10 things describing smart people....oh wait. That, plus this post ( http://innovatorinside.com/2011/03/21/were-not-artists-ov…

    I agree with him, except it's more like a social league where everyone plays because they accept any and everyone. I've mentioned it here before, but I think it's plain silly that …

    While there are a lot of cases in which I'd agree with you, this isn't one of them. While a thing is gonna do what it's gonna do regardless of the name, a lot of time semantics can…

    Yea I always kind of assumed they'd something like that - RAIDed everything, but then again I think that may be the difference between using one of their DBs and running your own a…

    Yes. In the dull of our non life-threatening hackernews browsing moments, it's easy to say "It needed to be done! I'd do it in a second!" I, however, don't know if I'd have the for…

    I believe the post hit the nail on the head when it stated that -Apple- made it clear it considers Flash obsolete. Flash's obsoletion is hardly the reality of the situation but App…

    Just another example of concepts being minced by the general publics perception. Sort of like how "Web 2.0" means gradients, and every code library is a "Framework" despite no real…

    Damn. I thought you meant what if your company -made- the framework. What framework you use probably doesn't matter.

    I went to one of their meetups about this but am just lost/uninspired as to what compelling story can be pulled from this data-set. It's just federal spending amounts broken down b…

    I like the idea of algorithmic logos/identities - concepts that aren't specific logos per se but instead provide a set of guidelines through which one's generated.

    Not valid at all, except that I know some people in that situation like to purposely ask jarring questions to see how one will respond to pressure. It may or may not have been cond…

    Ditto. This article's so well written; so much meat and actual, rigourous dissection of a problem and it's landscape. Super applicable to the idea i'll be submitting to YC o:) This…

    This doesn't apply to all such people but non-technical startup founders - unless the idea is very much -non- technical - don't garner any sympathy from me. My opinion is mostly ba…
