Increasingly? This demo is impressive, but apart from the LocalStorage, this exact same code would have worked just the same 15 years ago. The web has been a great runtime for a lo…

Pretty sure most immigrants do not want to be "integrated".

Sure it does. You just have to change some setting in /proc. The default may be 64k

Probably the lack of recognition is due to it making money. Being profitable is so "old economy".

Should you really be able to patent anything in a water pistol or nerf gun though? Protecting the name of course is one thing. Nerf and supersoaker are brands. But I don't think an…

You're not creating anything though. If you print money, you're just devaluing all the current money, and stealing from people who already have money. I'm not convinced twitter has…

This should not be on hacker news. Who really cares about random teenagers throwing hissy fits anymore? There is no "anonymous". If you didn't see it, I'd recommend the final episo…

AWS isn't the issue. It's poorly engineered software. Probably using some fashionable backend, instead of tried and tested battle worn efficient software. Another example would be …

If you print some more money is that wealth?

> When $25b of wealth is being created Woah there. I think this is the fundamental issue. $25b of wealth hasn't been created. It's not free money. It's a scam.

No, we shouldn't bother trying to plug those leaks. Current situation: * You request website A, which includes 3rd party code from C. C drops a cookie * You request website B, whic…

Good. This recent war against cookies is futile and silly. If you visit a website (Assuming you don't go via some anonymizer proxy), they can track you, and they can pass your deta…

If you haven't seen it, I'd recommend watching "An idiot abroad". It's a great travel show with Karl Pilkington. He goes to foreign lands and tells it how it is.

Yes I am complaining about the £280m send to India. There are a lot of other causes closer to home that would benefit greatly from it.

So you believe that the current British, should be paying money for crimes committed by their ancestors? Personally, I don't think people should pay for other peoples mistakes, eve…

Thanks, I copy and pasted the wrong bit. But the point stands.

I don't think that's true at all. I think the majority of the UK see a space program as a fairly useless endeavour - big boys playing with their toys. The UK does certainly see sen…

As stated elsewhere, foreign aid from the UK to india is £280m. But I'm glad that's such a miniscule amount to you.
