Nice, thanks for sharing that. I heard it in Sapolsky's new book "Determined" [1] and did a little extra research since it seemed fascinating and I never knew about this. [1] - htt…

The video is great, thanks for sharing it, but uhm can't help but mention that shall you ever in the future wish for your username on HN to not be tied to your real identity, you m…

I did not take that as implying its somehow any better. I took it as a cultural separation that allows for an excuse to forgo morality in inflicting harsh threatments. (easier to b…

This is almost a full day after your post and I don't really have anything to add, but I wanted to thank you for writing this post. It was honest and heartfelt. I think the worst p…

I have a 3 year old dishwasher and I've never had the issues described in the article. We use Somat Gold Gel, which from a quick Amazon search doesn't seem to be available in the U…

I'm usually a lurker and rarely comment but yours was such a nice little informal comment that I had to say something. Thanks for bringing a smile to my face :)

rolls eyes ... take your upvote and go.

I disagree with you. People have very different styles when it comes to absorbing information. I fully understand why that kid would choose to listen to music instead of random cof…

I have forever changed my sleeping habits ever since before I even finished reading Why We Sleep. Best time/money investment I made in 2018.

Looks nice. I have a bit of pixelation on the button & font. But overall it's nice, clean and a simple idea. I like it. You should share it with the guys at -> http://www.reddit.co…

I'm not a developer or a founder but I hope I can help. My advice would be to look at the positive side of this. Watch carefully what works and what doesn't work in your competitor…

In that case I guess I was wrong and so was the source I had. Thank you for proving me wrong. I guess I should start reading the Press Releases more often.

...and I'm being downvoted because, apparently, TechCrunch is the only reliable news source online and saying something that might contradict it is wrong from the start. :)

I wouldn't worry too much about it. Faking an ID towards a wireless network is pretty easy to do. There will probably be apps that would fool the WiFi into thinking your iPhone is …

I don't think so. I remember reading on a blog that Mac & Windows users have to pay too.

I don't think the hype this piece of news got was due to the way it works but mostly because its restricted towards Apple users. It's not newsworthy by itself but because it's part…

Sooo... basically the Asus Padfone but without the comfort of being made by a renowned hardware manufacturer and the nice feeling you have knowing it actually exists and you can bu…

Having 3 more ppi than iPhone is not much. Having that amount of PPI in a screen that's 1 full inch bigger is. And have you ever compared a ClearBlack display with an iPhone screen…

That's what I used to think too... until I actually owned a Lumia by chance. Now I'm rooting for them because I know I won't get that quality from other manufacturers without buyin…

The 920 has an 8Mp camera. I got the same feeling from all the blogs covering the event. They all talked about it through a "doubtful" lens. I kept seeing expression like "I gotta …

http://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=4433358 Does it look like I'm speaking for the whole population? I've clearly stated "me" and "my friends and [some] people close my age". Since…
