Just remember you'll be dead all too soon and let life flow accordingly.

Your problem is that you thought understanding could guide you in meditation. It can't. But it's still necessary for advanced techniques. Anything worthwhile takes time and discipl…

I highly suggest "The Tibetan Book of The Dead" and "The Power of Silence." Try to find the TBOTD version translated by W.Y. Evans-Wentz if you're not one for happy meal, watered-d…

Definitely agree this juggling rests in experienced hands. A vet knows what balls can be dropped and which ones cannot. My thoughts on this are: 1) As a rule of thumb, the longer t…

A woman could hack a vuvuzela instead or blow one (the horn).

Out of curiosity, what barter product was it? I've been working on an offline sharing site ( http://pickupon.com/ ) specializing in direct trade for a while and just started inviti…

I would test this theory on a pet first.

It would be interesting if features and the amount of content produced by them scaled with the frequency of interactivity between contacts. WLN seems to draw just another arbitrary…

Thanks, this was the type of answer I was looking for. S3 definitely sounds affordable. I knew bandwidth would get expensive but had no clue exactly how bad.

MVP is convenient. It allows users to pay for their level of involvement from what I understand. I agree if a startup is going to play that game they should be transparent. Some pe…

I've been asked to make a stock media site that would hypothetically sell top quality stock video footage, VFX, pictures, audio, and music for fractions less (bare minimum and all …

I have many friends who are much less intelligent than I who are attending "better" schools for infuriatingly trivial reasons. Getting good grades has as much to do with intelligen…

This lost-and-found marketing ploy is certainly working out well for BP. ;)

!(Thanks for the commentary)

1) Although videos are visual aids by definition, it wasn't suggesting that a human could visualize any dimension except the 1st, 2nd, and 3rd I believe; this is why mathematicians…

I have to disagree. Just because "results where in 5-space and up you can see and exist in all time simultaneously" appears to be "wacky" doesn't mean it's not possible. It's simpl…

I'm glad my 4th-dimensional-former-undulating-self-blob observed this point on the 3rd dimensional plane. Obligatory link: http://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=1385543

Age: 21, Sex: male, Days: 3, Hotel: true, Alone: false, Cash-to-burn: $100. Didn't care for the movie "The Hangover" but I did enjoy "Ocean's Eleven" if that helps any.

Sorry, but you're horrifyingly correct.

Any europeans here on HN? I had a german professor last semester tell me many schools/teachers don't require students to buy specific textbooks and do homework problem sets in Euro…
