I feel compelled to add my own geometric art for the shake of completion since it seems like a hobby from a few of us HNers:

I have to login and comment to express my disappointment with the bad reviews this movie has always gotten.

Rotten Tomatoes gives it a 56%, which is really sad. Here are two of the negative reviews.

Corliss:

   Most sci-fi movies offer escape, a holiday from homework, but Dune is as difficult as a final exam. You have to cram for it.
Ebert:

   This movie is a real mess, an incomprehensible, ugly, unstructured, pointless excursion into the murkier realms of one of the most confusing screenplays of all time.
This movie is Lynch interpretation of a very complex book and he did so while still being faithful to its uniqueness. He gave us visual aesthetics that are very different from our standard views of space travel (ie: arabesque spaceships and gothic outfits) and didn't skip over the less popular concepts of mind evolution present in the book

What can I say? This movie deserves more recognition than a 56% score.

Interesting that DeSoto fails to mention why people seek out Uber. Kim seems to be focused on the medallions pricing structure completely ignoring user advantages such as ease of access through the app, reliable service, quality, etc, etc.

If cab companies don't realize that new services beat them to the punch in many areas besides pricing they won't survive.


That is, unless, they have a government-granted monopoly that is tremendously unfriendly to disruption (i.e. regulatory capture)


Pages are generated on Github servers. As somebody mentioned you can run Jekyll locally to preview the rendered pages or simply push to github and review online.


My understanding is that traffic above 10M users will not be tracked by the free version of GA, but the service will continue working and recording visits. What 4chan will lose is information of all users above 10M, but will retain access to all the data.

I believe these emails from Google are phrased ambiguously to force upgrades.


I disagree.

Here's a comparison of the interest of the public in Bitcoin and Myspace. Now consider the value of Myspace in the present and the value of Bitcoin in the future: http://www.google.com/trends/explore#q=bitcoin%2C%20myspace&...

There's no telling what will happen to bitcoins, but my point is, interest is no sign of value. Now if I could invest in cats, that would be a different story.


Just in case this was a reply to my now-deleted comment: Sorry about that. I deleted it because I replied to the wrong comment. I reposted it elsewhere: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=7405339
