theguardian.com is hotbed of climate alarmism.

The only ones against free speech these days are the far/weird-left. They have some twisted logic about not tolerating intolerant ( https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Paradox_of_toleran…

"The thing is: I have yet to see a project done overseas at that sort of hourly rate that has actually gone well." The argument sounds like something Rush Limbaugh would say, "It's…

I'm the solo founder of PrintFriendly.com Two years ago I applied to YC, and was turned down in the interview process. They asked, "how is PrintFriendly going to make a billion dol…

Sweet. I've used iconfinder.com over the years. Its now a default stop when searching an icon. Seems to be getting better everytime i visit too. Keep up the good work!

Barf. Sad, to see Hacker News being used as a marketing channel.

Hmm, I love watching videos on iPad

haha. "Video is dull as dish water when it's talking heads". Works better for categories like eSports, Cooking, How To.

Video is sweeter than reading, especially on iPhone, iPad, droid. Justin.Tv, Leo Laporte, Revision3, Dvorak, Adam Curry, Jason Calacanis (ThisWeekIn.com), are blazing the trail. I'…

Hah, you're good. I'm platinum (ztay). Day9 rocks. But, gotta say, I can't miss an HD Cast. He's just fun. Did you see the talk HD gave at the recent Google Tech Talk. HD has over …

I watch Day9, HDStarcraft, and Husky more than I play. How about you?

Love it! "They know when to Expand"
