Good thing I learned about this in 15-122 freshman year

There's a bit where he implies that if an encryption process doesn't take very long to execute on a smartphone, then it must be easy to crack the resulting file on a powerful serve…

As a kid, my parents tried using parental control software on my computer to block porn and other inappropriate content. This turned out to be helpful because it motivated me to le…

Yeah... I mean, am I the only one that thinks this article is kind of trite? Uncountability isn't a completely mind blowing concept to me.

haha, best comment

The article title is kind of misleading. When I see "Silicon Valley" in a headline, I interpret it as metonymy. So I thought the article was predicting the doom of the internet sta…

Yeah, I did too. I wanted to leave a comment along the lines of "Most smartest? I thought this was the Atlantic..."

1. The VCs don't want to drive to Ohio when something comes up 2. It's important for teams to be physically together to facilitate better communication and forge a sense of communi…

All hail Frank Pfenning!

This post is extremely stupid. What is this, the first grade? If you can't take honest criticism, you suck. If you think computer technology is full of mean people, try working in …

I think this is a prime example of the vast potential of computers to generate material value beyond what we could have ever dreamed of in the 1960s. Finally I can avoid making all…

I find it odd that Sublime is so widely loved. It seems like a way-station between Notepad and Vim/Emacs. The extensions are nice, and the GUI is easy on the eyes, but it seems tha…

Yeah, but the entire SF Bay Area is much more populous than the Austin-Round Rock Area

Why would they name their application Helios? It collides with Eclipse.

False dichotomy out of helping the poor/helping the rich. Taking advantage of the neomarxist undercurrent of bay area culture and the information technology industry by framing tec…

Oh lol. I do not expect this to go over well with the politically correct crowd.

oh no, people are mean to others sometimes ...welcome to adulthood I think it's easy to forget that some people have real problems that don't involve overreacting to hataz on the i…

wow... doesn't even run CoD... #ignore

Disclaimer: I am a dumb college freshman Does this guy actually expect his letter to be read by Ortiz? It seems ridiculous to me that this guy thinks his opinion regarding the case…
