Nuremberg trials are not a paragon, merely an example where a majority of the people believe that ethics/natural law trumps the laws of the state. This says nothing of its actual conduct.
Same in my location, a neighbor had a small fire in the wall due to plumbing soldering: police, firetrucks and ambulance. Then extra police kept stopping by (I guess they were bored, and the paramedic chick was cute and flirty).
Well, Nuremberg trials and the American revolution show that ethics are above law in many peoples minds at least when convenient. And in many ways, opposite expressions of the notion of Natural Law vs. State. (not Socrates, of course)
Ouch, that top 1-star review is pretty damning, and right at the top. That's got to be a major buzzkill on your DLs. I wonder if you could address that somehow in your description. Actually the CA seems interesting to me.
As a member of the 78%, it looks interesting (and I just bought it). However, the video seems to provide the only real tutorial. There needs to be a walk-through in the app (perhaps there is).
Also, I'd like to see some sort of visual/tracer feedback as you press the keys (and apparently, you can even able to vibrate them). I don't know if the processor can handle it, but you could use the sound wave in the key itself. But even color changes or a sparkle (users could turn off in preferences).
All those people apparently felt some sort of personal connection by the act, it was a very strange phenomenon. He had not cleared out his contacts in a decade! He had "reached out" to many past vendors, former colleagues, etc. They all want to "reconnect" and were emailing, messaging, etc. It was literally (in the correct use of the word), taking up a lot of his time with all the influx of emails and calls.
There site is already in postmortem, I would have liked to seen what they had built. We learn more when we see awesome ideas that don't gain traction, it's often depressing though. I also see a trend of all these assets just vanishing. Even when sites opensource after failure, seldom anything comes up it. I will proffer the uncomfortable suggestions that the balley-hooed software practices, despite the back-patting, are not uncoupled and modular. In fact, we have reached the age of massive coupling in the full stack, even the deployment.
The CEO of a company I worked for did this by accident: Invited all of his contact. Let me tell you, all the underlings and vendors were so excited to get an invitation from the CEO. His linked in profile exploded. I was tasked with trying to uninvite the 500 or so people that hadn't accepted in the first few hours! I eventually told him it was no big deal. LinkedIn isn't very personal, it's mostly image.
It's a top secret recruiting method. Only the top 1% learn to debug code or hardware on their own. Since it's a secret, it's still not a gamed in the interview process by the me-too crowd. Please downvote this story, you will make recruiting much harder.
It's funny how he predicted all these stock objections to his claims of fraud in the video, and yet they all appear here in the HN thread. Let's all watch the video again shall we?
Jesus H. Christ, watch some old TV shows and movies. How would one see coworkers kid's photos before facebook!?! They'd pull them out of their wallet or purse, an album on the coffee table. It was a cliche and staple of sitcoms to be annoyed by the endless stream of kid photos from a wallet.
They are always AMAIWAAIC anyway. (Ask me anything, I will answer as I choose). If there were pre-voted by community questions, and rules requiring answers by the AMAer, now that would be interesting.
At some point you need to ask yourself, why the hell do I care? This is so much low-level posturing and image-crafting on the part of anyone who participates. It bespeaks of a self-righteous society with no ability to organize or plan other than whine about the color of the bike shed and other narcissisms of small differences.
