I think if the source cares about his/her job, they'd intentionally throw in some misdirection (i.e. lodestar')

Data is like 'electronic IP' such as videos, music and computer programs in that it's a precious resource that's easily stolen. The problem is that it's not easy to secure. P…

This is great news. Anything to fight the opioid epidemic is a good thing.

Can't agree more. Open Source is beneficial for so many reasons. Just a few: - Use of the software, of course - Your programmers become better at their craft - Access to cutting edge innovations…

Ditto. My thanks as well.

If Perry's new album sounds half as good as his old stuff, it'll be the best album of the year.

Yes, exactly. Also: How do those "FIRE" millenials manage to retire at 30? By living WELL below their means. It's no a lifestyle for everybody, but it demonstrates that money skills …

I was born in Mitchell, South Dakota in 1965. According to the site: 1965: 31 days over 90 2018: 25 days over 90 Interesting.

It's important. But not totally. Another factor to consider is variety in your workplace education. There's a lot of value in working in different environments, industries, surroundings. …

Wow. I lived in west Indiana in the late 90s, remember Carmel as the 'new In place'. Looks like they're headed for trouble. Bummer. Hope city planners are taking note.

Awesome. I love stories where hard work pays off. Hats off to this family.

Or stocks just level off and bring mediocre returns for several years.

Wow, that is one blaringly annoying web site. Too much stuff going on!

For those who haven't used it-- TMUX is awesome! Give it a try. You'll be glad you did.

There are some interesting ideas there. To me, these kinds of things are great mind hacks. If I can find even one useful ideas that I can apply, I've bettered my mental abilities. I'd gladl…

I took part is such a scheme as a youngster. Pop bottles carried a .05 charge on each bottle, refunded when the empty bottle was returned to the store. Careless consumers (litterers) might just throw…

I disagree. Riches and fame are sure to draw legions of fame, no matter how offensive the misdeeds of the celebrity. It seems part of modern day life.

I worry a bit about Wheaton. I'd like for him to have a happy existence, he seems a bit off-center sometimes. I wish him good luck.

FIRE is awesome. The retirees live their dream, then they vacate their high-paying job for the next applicant. Everybody wins.

I'd think safety (or lack of the same) might be a factor too.

Love that movie.

I like to read headlines from RealClearPolitics. RCP has headlines from both sides of the aisle, equally bombastic. I can see at a glance how each side is spinning some issue and I can read neither o…

Hmmmm, 'Science Alert' has a headline that calls stones 'Sinister'? Methinks science has taken a backseat to rhetoric, regardless of the substance of the story.

Thank you for sharing. I agree, this is a rotten system.

Nice! Bonds seem to be a bit out of favor today, but they have the advantage of reduced volatility. Glad to see this one on HN.

Deeply disappointing. My primary machines are Linux and this is a step backward. I really think Linux will finally win the desktop (someday. Clearly not today.)

I'd like to help. It seems Y-Combinator is waiting until they get the whole sum put together before they start. I'm willing to participate as a recipient for a much smaller pilot program. …
