"Why are our cities suffering from the same problems that every other city faces?" I don't even know what to say to this. How can the author even be asking this question? Here's a …

Chrome is dropping NPAPI support, which includes the Unity browser plugin. Unity will be temporarily whitelisted probably through the end of 2014 but the goal is to remove support …

I personally think it's just incredible that vertical centering in CSS has been so woefully neglected over the 16 years we've had CSS. Every time I read another article about how s…

Most arrogant quote I've ever heard coming from a developer. I hope this sounded different in context because that is one of the most horrible and elitist things I've ever heard pe…

The museum of natural history was not built post-1995. It's probably giving that as the date because they added the new planetarium in 2000. Which raises the question, is this true…

I ask them to guard my laptop, which they usually do since I suppose they will get in trouble if it's stolen. Actually maybe the fact that I'm asking them to watch over my laptop e…

I love how he felt compelled to excuse his omission of castling and en passant moves by explaining that they were added to chess "later" (14th and 15th century)... maybe he started…

"sending a message" == getting you to doubt, think twice == instilling fear == creating terror == being a terrorist Fighting terror with terror. How can it be that no one in the UK…

"Funding some local education or beautification initiatives could go a long way to reducing the gentrification backlash." Or maybe California could relax its constitutional restric…

I hear this over and over again and I wonder why nobody frames this as a generational thing. The Apple II came out in 1977. I'm 41 now, so back then I was 8, still learning how to …

I think you are missing the point that this poll is voluntary. So, the "Do not disclose" option is there -- just click on one of the many other links on HN today, or otherwise do s…

I would have agreed with this up until about a year ago. But I've recently discovered a new way of thinking about the development process that IMO is far superior, and more importa…

I probably sound like a food snob, but when I'm thinking of beef that tastes like cardboard, I'm thinking of a Big Mac, for example. If you take all the condiments and just eat the…

In the article linked to from this article: A preliminary report by the UN's International Atomic Energy Agency has stated that the response to the Fukushima nuclear incident was "…

Yes that is what they are supposed to be eating. Their digestive systems have evolved over millions of years to eat grass, and if they eat grass they will be healthier animals, and…

I just want to say that what I've found is that you need a balance. Swing too far in the direction of "Do what you love" and you'll hate the fact that you're poor and can't get a j…

Maybe oversimplified, but, these being the 5 programming paradigms listed in Wikipedia: Aspect-oriented (? not an expert on this) Imperative/procedural (most work is done by statem…

Sorry to harsh on the site, I realize it's your creation that you've put time and effort into, and I'm just some random guy killing time on the internet. That said, I will say that…

I have to say this. I was getting annoyed at the oversimplified, vague, and/or unclear explanations on the poster. It's great to have a poster cataloging logical fallacies, but it'…

stole my comment, that's exactly what I was going to say...

thanks, that's a good idea.

I thought about that, I could always do that as a last resort. But when I've done this on leases, for example, both parties had to initial it.

I have a project I've been working on for about a year in my personal time (weekends, nights, etc) when not at work. It's basically a game. I was planning to launch this on the web…
