Abolish software and "business-method" patents. Until that's done, patent "reform" is a sham.

The alleged behavior of "authorities" is objectionable in the extreme, but wearing a video camera to the theater is goddamned stupid.

Because the Windows 8 UI is so bad that even consumers won't accept it. Hidden UI = no UI at all. This peek-a-boo shit has to stop. And "converging" mobile and desktop OSes is exac…

That doesn't hold water. How grossly incompetent would the engineering have to be if the machine can't tell the difference between being moved a few hundred feet vs. out of the cou…

Snapchat: the next Groupon. Except worse.

"Lightning-plug guru"? Is that supposed to be impressive? It's just the opposite. The Lightning plug is a sorry piece of shit, and a step backward from even the hacked, overextende…

Google should never be allowed to name or brand anything. "SPDY", which doesn't stand for anything, is just another failure from this factory of asinine names.

Especially if they didn't fix any of these ridiculous defects: http://goldmanosi.blogspot.com/2012/05/visual-studio-is-it-g...

"Responsive" to what?

Sadly it's just another Band-Aid. Until the government has the balls to step up and illegalize software patents and "business-method" patents altogether, any patent "reform" is a s…

"im"? And what happened to your Shift keys?

Not to mention the hated non-resizable, piece-of-shit bookmarks dialog that hasn't been fixed year after year after year: https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=418864

Bitcoin: Get over it. "You're posting too fast" You know what HN? FUCK YOU.

So… let's take an already highly efficient form of transportation and turn it into an overpriced, limited-range form of transportation? OK.

Isn't Bootstrap itself a starter template? Why is this necessary, and how many layers of templates do we need?

"Responsive"? http://goldmanosi.blogspot.com/2013/08/responsive-design-doe...

That statement doesn't say that they notified the customer of the problem. Unless the notification to the customer said "malicious UDP pattern", the customer wasn't notified.

That is a good and thorough response, but why wasn't this communicated to the customer in the INITIAL notice (assuming that the doc he posted is accurate)? And if that notice preda…
