    My elevation dock is finally shipping. I'll have it just in time to use it for a day, maybe, before I get my iPhone 5 on Friday. I had to send a nastygram email just to elicit a re…

    Are you going to release the source code at http://www.skullbocks.com/ ?

    What HN and the "startup scene" has taught me for the most part is only that there are a huge number of pretentious CEOs / VCs / Lead Devs who all think they have some unique insid…

    That should horrify FB. That means there will always be a direct correlation between Zynga's stock and FB's stock on a daily basis. I would not want one (3rd-party) company account…

    A lot of these companies would do a lot better if they charged for their apps. It's ridiculous to give something away for free and hope that you can find profit in it later. That u…

    I don't think that anyone doesn't want it to succeed. There are a lot of valid reasons as to why this can easily fail. No one is saying, "You know what, screw that Ouya company." T…

    Unfortunately it wouldn't be an easy task to even come close to disrupting EA. Especially in the sports genre. They own way too many exclusive contracts with leagues. And there are…

    I'm sure that I'm going to get down voted to oblivion, but every time I read headlines like this, I like to assume that Bill is a person. It makes the headline way more fun.

    When you think about how far the world has come in the last 200 years, I can easily see that by 2050 we're doing manned deep space exploration. I could be wrong, but I'm pumped for…

    Well: A) These are all software companies. The hardware that they would ever make is few and far between. B) There is no saying that they DON'T already have an investment in this c…

    This is quite possibly one of the most exciting projects I've seen on Kickstarter. Despite my absolute desire to click that Back This Project button, I'm gonna hold off. I've never…

    Perhaps I'm overreacting here, but I think I would receive a lot of joy over the SEC investigating this and Marc Pincus landing his ass in jail. I don't blame everyone that works t…

    While it looks like a slightly promising competitor to iOS and Android, if they don't lock down good pricing, it will fail. $1000 is just not a good price point when it comes to a …

    Absolutely amazing how many of those reflect the design used in later models of the iPhone. Before the first was even made they had the 3G/3GS prototype, some that closely resemble…

    No one here to blame other than political agenda. I fully feel we could have been in preparation for a humanized mission to Mars at this point. However, we've wasted too much time …

    This method has worked for me 3 times now. I turned down one of the opportunities. Not necessarily the best sample size, but the method shows very clearly that you intend to work f…

    From personal experience, don't apply to any positions that don't reveal the company name in the post. You'll rarely get anywhere, and when you do it will likely not even pan out t…

    In Orlando I'm paying $240 a month to get 40Mbps down / 5 up with a full channel lineup, plus Showtime and NHL Center Ice. So THIS would be a huge deal to people in my area where o…
