By the way, what would happen if all karma was reset?
Re:Ask HN: What are the best developer/hacker focused blogs? on Wednesday August 26, 2009 @12:45PM (#787525)
The best blogs for me, are those that are not for the great hacker public, but for smaller audiences. Blogs about mathematics, data mining, computer vision, and so on. Coding Horror, Spolsky and the alike only talk about generalities and aren't really useful to me.

I somewhat agree. For an interesting viewpoint on the NKS discussion, check this NKS review: http://www.amazon.com/gp/cdp/member-reviews/AOUPSNSAAC8DM/re...
Re:Ask HN: What do you think makes a good teacher? on Friday August 14, 2009 @10:46AM (#763085)
- passionate about his/her subject - caring about the people he/she teaches to
I personally have a problem finding my most impressive achievement not impressive at all from the instant it's done. Anyone else?

I'm not sure if that's what you mean, but if you think BG would give most of his fortune just to get recognition and attention... I think that's really unfair with him.
Re:The Six Phases of Bootstrapping A One-Man Startup on Tuesday August 04, 2009 @10:34AM (#741265)
Right. I had a one man startup and it worked great. You need the right business to start with.
Re:Can you teach yourself to control your dreams? on Sunday July 26, 2009 @11:13PM (#725292)
I experimented with lucid dreaming a few years ago, and did it for many times. I saw myself in mirrors and also in my own image of I myself sleeping somewhere. My own image was always wrong in some way, and the memories of some of those images are still completely creepy many years after the dreaming happened (I still have goose bumps for the memory of the image of one of these specific dreams... quite crazy really since it wasn't a very bad image that you wouldn't see in a bad horror movie for example).

The smart people always need other less smart people to do the things they don't want to do. There is always space for a worst of the team.

Re:Annual Performance Review: Albert Einstein on Friday July 03, 2009 @11:27PM (#686860)
Looks like a critic to the job system (by mocking the annual performance reviews) to me.

Maybe you don't upload a thing, but people tag you in photos (and you have your tagged photos marked as private).
