wow, that's fantastic, thanks!

Any plans on Clojure support?

This rings eerily similar to the state of the Gnome foundation and other long-in-the-tooth FLOSS projects. Sad to read but I really don't know how one responds to "no innovation." …

I think there is a much bigger issue here than the theoretical storage solutions. Everything you said is indeed entirely possible for most HN-readers and tech people but I sure can…

I have sat on organizational committees and name-blinding would not work for some of us for one key reason: We use speaker's name/identity as a criteria for talk selection. Two mai…

I found quite a bit in the original article that seemed to point to a misunderstanding of the site for someone who hasn't used it. Karim doesn't even mention one of the most valuab…
