No, it's the reinforcement of social order that predates manners.

You only mean non-stop, right?
I thought I was doing good by scanning /new and flagging garbage, but alas my link also vanished soon after.
Re:SF Muni LED Sign at Home with Raspberry Pi on Saturday August 31, 2013 @04:55AM (#6306271)
I use "Muni Alerts," which is always synced and has alarms that can be set for particular lines approaching within arbitrary time frames. Works great.

one definition of transparent is, "cannot be seen."

Who is "we?"
Re:Oculus VR co-founder, 33, killed by speeding car on Saturday June 01, 2013 @11:19AM (#5804279)
He was killed by a high-speed police chase.
Thanks, I was wondering if that was going to make an appearance. I'd almost call what the next web is writing here to be plagiarism, but probably just lazy reporting (didn't know it existed and didn't even try to look).

we're not equating them, the magazine itself is.
Re:Facebook in talks to buy Waze for $1B on Thursday May 09, 2013 @04:00AM (#5679311)
$1B = iPhone-only apps Android users have heard of.
They're supposed to put your content back up once they receive the counter notice. Your provider screwed you.
Due Process should not be remarkable.
Re:What's Actually Wrong with Yahoo's Purchase of Summly on Wednesday March 27, 2013 @04:20PM (#5451754)
Why should we care whether you understand, especially when you attempt to hijack a thread, demanding that people satisfy your curiosity?

Dear Sendgrid, negative margin tricks are annoying:

Re:A Review of 3 Hacker News Jobs Listings on Saturday February 16, 2013 @11:37AM (#5231985)
And the ad itself is just as vague and meaningless as that title. I have to think that these YC job ads are used as a viability signal to the YC partners and that the company doesn't get help writing them.
Re:Group email address. Did 37signals copy my idea? on Tuesday January 08, 2013 @01:16PM (#5027493)
These ideas just keep getting copied and morphed into something else

Why not write about that, then?

Re:Group email address. Did 37signals copy my idea? on Tuesday January 08, 2013 @01:12PM (#5027466)
The article is an autobiography with an occasional naked assertion about "my idea," and very little about the supposed copying. I can only assume this is a self-promotional troll for some upcoming launch. "My previous post seemed to cause some confusion, so let me clarify what's going on..."
Re:_why is a role, not a person on Tuesday January 08, 2013 @04:31AM (#5025461)
Of Grammatology is probably one of the most impenetrable books ever written. I'm not sure I'd recommend any of these as starting points.
Re:Teen boasts of drunken driving on Facebook, arrested on Saturday January 05, 2013 @01:20PM (#5013450)
The headline is misleading, he mentioned hitting a car and was charged for that.
The copyright industries want to expand their rentier state to exert control at the network level. They want veto power over the presence of any copyrighted material on the internet. The only way to prevent this is to legalize a fundamental right to link.
Re:Google: We Did Not Acquire ICOA for $400 Million on Tuesday November 27, 2012 @02:10AM (#4836026)
At this point, the only story I need to read is about whether anybody is going to prison for this prank.

Seems odd to quibble with being a thoughtful netizen.

Yeah, I'm sure your paychecks don't reflect that.

I'll smile while I'm flagging yours.

Circumstantial evidence is a kind of evidence.

Fantastic information design. World class.
Re:Zynga CEO Mark Pincus Confirms Layoffs: 5% of Workforce on Tuesday October 23, 2012 @08:46PM (#4691110)
No, that's PR business. What would be sleazy is if he undercut so that remaining employees still have swords hanging over their heads. "Cut once, cut deep."

There is no "right to a reasonable expectation of safety and privacy," in public, though.
