Here's a more pop-sci explanation of this form of bias from the new york times in case anyone sees these comments. http://www.nytimes.com/interactive/2015/07/03/upshot/a-quick...

This writer is trying to say that positive economics is flawed because of the flaws of normative economics. It is possible to make a well-constructed argument that positive economi…

This is a really flawed way at looking at the market. Including tablets and smartphones in the PC market doesn't work because most people have a PC and a table and a phone.

This could really use a lot of editing. Far too much of it is whining about slow internet that doesn't reach a meaningful conclusion, but instead generalizes from his anecdote. If …

This will be so useful in all my new projects! I'm using this and that other one character javascript framework I remember seeing. Anyone have a link?

It seems like it's really getting killed under the load. This also isn't the first node project demo I've seen deployed that gets destroyed by a bunch of people visiting it to chec…

what the FUCK is he talking about? 120k for a GP vs 40k for a plumber. Sources: http://www.payscale.com/research/US/People_with_Jobs_as_Phys... http://www1.salary.com/Plumber-I-sal…

>> Execution of course matters but there is also value in being first and taking the right marketing approach. I absolutely agree with you. I think for a lot of people, including m…

>> EDIT: Oh, look. I have the attention of the majority of HN. Allow me to now exploit you: Your edit is the best thing to come out of this entire ordeal. Thanks for not abusing yo…

I totally agree with this. I thought it was a joke. I didn't think frat guys were actually learning to code and calling themselves programmers or something... The point of this blo…

This is written by a man who thinks each and every paragraph he writes is worth linking to.

Are you fucking kidding me? The words "desk" and "photo" are linked to store results from this site? No thanks, this is 2012, that's not how we monetize content anymore.

Pg 43- "[REDACTED] commented that, although he does not consider Mr. Jobs to be a friend at this time, he considers Mr. Jobs to be a successful individual because he can delegate t…

Confronting aliens in cowboys and aliens? Really? THATS the movie they pick for where ford had a role confronting aliens? Oh, how quickly they forget. http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-zAS…

Very much baby steps in jazz music theory, but this will probably be helpful to some people!

I would rather do what this guy did then spend 40 years of my life trying to get people to click ads. It sounds like he didn't enjoy his job on wall street. I wouldn't enjoy a job …

Occupy Wall St. arguably didn't do much to affect Washington, or the regulations that affect the firms that protesters were blaming. I'm not experienced in these matters, but it se…

In my opinion, the quality of content on HN has plummeted since SOPA became an internet issue. It is reminiscent of how the Digg community stopped caring about interesting stories …

I had to think for 30 seconds before I understood what SO was actually supposed to mean in your last sentence, as Stack Overflow didn't seem to fit in...

I guess these just don't match my personal definition of a software bug... I was expecting an unexpected result as a product of good programming. This is just "5 reasons this line …
