end-consumers.

DRM will be obsolete, because there's no consumer demand for it.

So what reasons are there to use flash over HTML5, I ask myself and the HN crowd? -Video. (Mwoah, only non-WebM video, can't really count this one) -Webcam (thanks garethsprice) -S…

Genesis 6:3 3 And the LORD said, My spirit shall not always strive with man, for that he also is flesh: yet his days shall be an hundred and twenty years. AFAIK, all people in rece…

> Presenting LULZIERhunter.php, taking what Jester wrote in 60 lines and turning it into 3 lines: Epic failure, implicating LOC is a measurement for code quality. Hint: it's not.

Android and Chrome will revive the netbook. They are free (as in beer) OSes, and run with very minimal hardware. As such, devices having one of both OSes will be the OLPC replaceme…

Handy. So I only need to make a pic of the key, and then send it to an online service, wait a day, and go wild in someone's house/company. Which by the way, won't be covered by ins…

These are no icons whatsoever. These are high resolution images with way too much detail to be ever used as icons.

Is there an html version?

Even in the 'normal way' theft is not the same as taking something or copying something. Maybe a lot of interpretations of taking/copying are labelled theft; it does not mean the t…

Thanks. I thought I was the only one with this experience.

Theft means you take something away. You don't take something away when you copy the execution. As such, it cannot be theft. The counterargument that you take away revenue is hypot…

One of the reasons why I have not visited Facebook since about a year now. I do not want to hand over control of my life to some company feeling fit to do with my data what they wa…

Every new web technology will be littered with security vulnerabilities. That's inherent to new technologies. The article does not make it clear for me what _inherent_ problems exi…

It gets better: "To get started, you will need to begin reading one or more of the Lojban Books" Seriously. A Book.

Every number is special. Every number has something on where you can apply rules to, and thus makes it special. Is there a database containing all the numbers and a list of atribut…

It seems killing Volta brings back the electricity at Microsoft.

What a complete nonsense. The industry moves in certain directions, and everyone is inspired by everyone else. Because there is a thriving legal industry, they call iit "stealing i…

I hate infinite scroll. It delutes the hints of m scrollbar height to know how much info is given.

This is why Inconsolata beats every font. Because there's a 'mistake' in it, and it can be fixed because of the licensing. This stuff gets me very excited.

IE8 does not do html5. Therefore, it's a legacy browser. Makes perfect sense to me.

Google does not need that kind of PR.

You beat me. That quote striked me, too. I'm not sure if it's doublespeak or logic. Is the MPAA above America's laws when it pays congressman to vote for specific law proposals? Or…

Likewise, only trusted callers can. Think your mother ;).

-Not OSS (note I didn't include the F) -Cross-browser pains -Vendor lockin (getting better with mono, but not officially supported by MS) -Non-(f)OSS tools or less (F)OSS tools -No…
