Shows that you really got Statistics. With so many people who go through the hiring process of Google every day, there just must be a good number of very bad and strange experience…

it is the third time I get this link from here. How comes? I thought HN checks if a link was already posted.

Isn't it Golang that becomes stable? Go is quite stable since, I don't know, over a hundred years... Here and there they tinker a little with the rules. Yes, sometimes they change …

Did you ever read or wrote such an article? Yes: You fail. No: You maybe have a chance of actually getting some work done.

upvote for edw519 who really said something about this book. And an imaginary downvote for the guys who upvoted this advertisment!

I also play KGS under the name asdfman[4k] (at the moment). I like that game because of its simplicity. In Chess u can get nowhere without learning ur openings very deep. In Go u j…

I am one of the disappointed people. The reason is, that they think a lot about making that "chat mechanics" work. But the plan of Diaspora is not to write a software, but to offer…

I think this happens every day. If you own stock in that big company you can talk to the other stock holders at stock holder meetings, learn to know them, build relationships and i…

So, actually he is saying that real estate and having your own beamer instead of renting one has no cost? He doesn't pay for buying it? There will be no problems after using it for…

People want privacy, but don't want to be troubled with managing it. It sucks, but this is the reality. How comes, that the people at Facebook need so much time to learn this? I me…

It must not be a full fletched street fighter clone. But when possible customers say they want some interaction, why not give it to them? I mean, it can be something small, like cl…

So true. And of course it is still better to bring problems you can not solve then nothing.

your viability test is a perfect example of "doing more". It is actually in the core just repeating what you can read in "4 hours work week" and yet it feels like good work.

I agree and want to add that you also should consider your future. Today playing around might be a fullfilling life. But in 10-20 years you will think differently. If you don't sta…

we need more like this. only in this big examples you can really learn to understand a program like the python compiler. thanks a lot!

I agree that the design of HN should be improved. I think since a long time. But why didn't I created this Ask-HN-Thread? Well, I think when I make such a request, I should have so…

I think you will have 2 problems: a) nobody knows what you are doing. When you have to visit the site and watch 5 minutes of presentation before you even get what's the product, th…

I'm learning chinese at the moment and never ever in my life learned anything that was so easy. All you need, is to put in the energy to keep going. In other cases (like learning p…
