I can put up with your smug, cowardly, evil war nerd horseshit, but not when it's from a throwaway. Fuck you, fuck this encroaching Reddit-flavored nonsense, thank you HN, and good…

Hi, future generations! Political prisoners are being raped with food intubators to prevent themselves from committing suicide in America's secret torture prison, with the express …

Tetris requires a properly sized view and clear, effortlessly distinguishable artwork. MUDs require a quality typeface, proper layout, and appropriate coloring. Pacman would be not…

Iraq, more or less.

Ok, nevermind on the siting bit, the paper is drafting on her PHD thesis which presumably supports the argument that these ants mounds correlate with faults.

This overseas reblog of a pop science blog which co-blogged a piece from @beckyoskin working for a blogring does not pass the smell test. At the very least, the headline is garbage…

For a tolerant, civil, agreeable collection of intelligent human beings who are interested in perusing anti-global warming literature while taking your throbbing martyr complex int…

Basically, PCs are dumb, boring work terminals for old people. Children coming of computing age when the iPhone was released are now 9 years old, perhaps on their second or third p…

Wrong, stop, I can personally name forty people working on it right now. Cancer is not a single thing, and progress is made on every front, every day.

Hrm, they label it as "iOS and UX to Windows porting labs". So in a sense.

Haha, true. But it's a whole lot better than "Buy shitty VM product, then source a retail/whitebox copy of Windows, then Install and Patch, Install and Patch, and set up Dev tools …

Yes it really is a mistake, and you're being obnoxious. Please stop.

Ya, but look at it from a pragmatic business perspective, and this is Microsoft doing exactly what they should to court the prodigal developer: set up a zero hassle Windows environ…

Boots stamping on faces forever, also it'll be really goddamn hot. Next.

Oh! I take that back, thank you.
