dc2k08··on 7 Electric Motorcycles You Must See (including 1 that does 0-60 MPH in 0.97 seconds)
some say that there is not enough lithium in the world to supply the expected demand for the material, future lithium powered bikes and cars being the prime reason behind this statement.. the coming economic collapse will no doubt put an end to (expensive) lithium powered electric car and bike plans though imo.
dc2k08··on MGM to post full movies, TV shows on YouTube
i bet videos will only be available to north-americans though.
dc2k08··on Ask HN: what's a good resource or book to learn domain management

dc2k08··on Ask HN: what's a good resource or book to learn domain management
that's a big help callmeed, just the sort of thing i was looking for. thank-you very much. not being sure what search terms i should use, i was coming up with a lot results for "domaining" frustratingly. the registrar i am using is joker.com.
dc2k08··on Loopt (YC 2005) featured in iPhone TV ad
i can see how it would be useful, especially in work related sectors like taxi-services, hospitals etc. i would always dread if myself and my girl-friend had it that she would ask me why i had turned it off at such a time and grow suspicious...not that i am cheating on her or that i have a girlfriend...but its the sort of present that if i got it from one, i would break accidentally. great ap for parents and kids though. not great for cool kids.
dc2k08··on Let's End Adolescence
they take away a quarter of my life (av age of death 75) holding me back and forcing me to learn for tests things that i dont want to know. i like volcanoes. i know how they work. i dont need to be tested on their intricities.

finally i get a chance at a college education and choose something that i hope better gels. if it doesnt its back to step one. if i succeed, im most likely stuck in a 9-6'er at a job that will eventually bore me, turning the cogs for the economy in the dream i am supposed to have.

the more money i make, the more things cost. meanwhile the politicians take summers off and long breaks, pay themselves handsomely and imagine that this is fair. they wonder why i am not happily churning out kids for them to support their economy and further wedge myself in their dream. i'll keep pissing about thanks.

well done to those guys but that is one app i would never want to own. talk about a tag!
dc2k08··on Your house keys can be duplicated with a cellphone
any lock that fits a "house key" like those pictured can be opened with a bump key in a matter of seconds by anyone. taking a picture of someones keys and grinding a match is not necessary. those locks and keys need to stop being manufactured. they are no longer secure.
dc2k08··on Weebly (YC winter 07) scores 1 million users, reaches profitability

dc2k08··on Jerry Yang Email To All Yahoos: 10% Of You Are Fired
i think its always a good time to get rid of superfluous mark-up.
dc2k08··on Jerry Yang Email To All Yahoos: 10% Of You Are Fired
i think that the use of capital letters will decline while most of our writing is done on screen and the world becomes smaller still. most writing systems make no distinction between capital and lowercase letters. also, eventually the american spelling system will become dominant. jerry is probably incorporating the same philosophy that is highly regarded at apple, google and by many ui designers: "if it aint needed, get rid of it"

dc2k08··on The Life of the Queen Bee: Superb Macrophotography

dc2k08··on Ask HN: Who designed the graphics for your web app, and where did you find them?
the cappuccino one fails all of my criteria for being a good logo also. nice graphic but not a logo or an icon at the size it is used at.
dc2k08··on Ask HN: Who designed the graphics for your web app, and where did you find them?
I could design one if you're serious. would you like to stay with the knight theme? or could you go in other directions. i dont think your current is horrible though.
dc2k08··on Ask HN: Review our app, Muspy (new album notification service)

dc2k08··on I find this startup rather disturbing...
seriously, how are they picking up on my reddit, digg and forum accounts and what can i do for them not to?
dc2k08··on Ask HN: Where do you turn for graphics/design work?
been designing 99designs for about 2 weeks know and im becoming increasingly frustrated. this blog here http://www.graphicpush.com/99designs-bullshit-20 about sums up all my grievences. what is really depressing is when clients refuse to leave any feedback on a design you spent 5 hours on, merely awarding you one star an not telling you what they dislike about it so you can make changes. you can end up feeling like a whore in a line-up.

i click on some users' folios and i see that even the best of them might have entered 200 contests to have only 5 wins. in short, the only people this is a win for are the founders making off with a cool $40 for each contest started.

dc2k08··on Did you know you could access hacker news via http://www.hackerne.ws?
did not know that. wonder what purpose it serves. "The .ws domain is an abbreviation for "Western Samoa", the nation's official name when two-letter country codes were standardized in the 1970s" -wik.

hasn't the bauhaus gotten round to making these affordable yet?
dc2k08··on Huge new prime number discovered
forgive me if i sound naive, but i would have though it was a relatively simple task to design program to decipher which numbers were prime numbers ad infinitum. if it was april 1st, i would have thought this was a jest. is this really that praise-worthy and notable?
