Two things: firstly, the article was about the long term problem of automation, so not sure the meantime is a factor here. Secondly, who is to say that even without waiting there w…

This is excellent! One feature that's a definite that I couldn't figure out quickly: a "find meetups near you" button!

The "Hackathon" part in "Hackathon Hackers" is totally relative. Your "hackathon" depends completely on the people judging it. Being judged by a bunch of suits with no connection t…

> I don't see Angry Birds being much different than doing a puzzle on the floor, You're missing a huge part of tactile development going on when she's playing a puzzle on the floor…

The idea of requiring (and then paying for) "American-standard" lodging seems ridiculous when we outsource it for developing country prices.

Great read! Interdependence is something that I always think about in these situations. Our society is so dependent on trade and working with other regions/countries that to see th…

Manassas is an example of white flight (which is a big theme of the communities in NoVA period). Mike O'Meara refers to it as "deviltown" for a reason: it's pretty much been abando…

Right. The problem was his misconception with society on the side of the errand runner. All he seemed to have experience with was the exec who has tasks needed to be done. On that …

Two of your apps mention Montessori by name, which makes me wonder how often you are criticized for using her name in vain? My wife is a Montessori teacher and would flip her shit …

It's linked to in the udemy page, but the book is available for free as HTML here : http://c.learncodethehardway.org/

Only half of us felt it here in Sacramento, CA. It seriously just felt like someone slammed a door very hard.

Isn't the camera just Intel's 3D gesture cam? It also has an SDK that integrates very well with unity. http://software.intel.com/en-us/vcsource/tools/perceptual-co... The first scr…

This has to be the oddest and most ridiculous attempt I've seen to form a social life. The comments above have advised to go after interests, and whatnot. Do that, but also seek ou…

While I've seen the filtered reviews issue and think the claims are somewhat true, my bigger problem is that yelp does nothing for reviewer quality. So many times, I've seen blatan…

This has always been the determining factor for me about mechanics. Charge $80 to do a scope test? I'll go elsewhere. In my experience, getting your repeat business is more importa…

That part of the video left me confused, because it's often not that easy. I wonder if this function depends on the model.. Also, loose gas cap often goes away after a certain peri…

Checked out the video, well made! However, it is incredibly vague in terms of answering my question. The video says you're looking for "My neighbors, coworkers, classmates, my comm…

I want to know what you're going to do to attract the every day user? Why would someone choose this over meetup.com or posting on craigslist or reddit, etc. There're a fair number …

Excellent post! The one thing I have to wonder is if there are those out there who can really separate themselves from their company's business. I like to think of James Altucher's…

Vardan Kushnir also had quite the adventurous life and death!

The article mentions the competition for FamilyLeaf, but does not give any inkling of a clue as to how they'll overcome the competition and really the bigger competition from Faceb…

My district in California was exactly like this, sans the people out front. This being the downtown of the capitol city, too.

I agree to an extent. I think if you look at the average user (generally not someone on HN), you'll see that it is cheapening their experiences. When preteens can quantify how popu…
