Fundamentally because it's been more than two hours since I asked for a password reset.

But really, because I'm not trying to fix this. This message was mostly for me, because I'm leaving what has been a fundamental part of my experience on the Internet, since Netscape. I wrestled with the decision to go with either Netscape or Mozilla, when that was a decision.

I just feel bad, and needed to say something to someone. Anyone. Which I've done.

If other people are having the same problem, someone who still knows their password will report it. And if it's just me, well, I'm just one of millions. The galaxy turns.

"I didn't get my password reset email yet, so I'm going to go try and score some karma on HN with Browser Wars link bait." is how I interpret that response.

This is an example of people taking open source for granted.

You have the power to modify the trajectory of your favorite browser (or OS, or any open source project, for that matter), even if you don't contribute code, you could give the maintainers a heads up by filing an bug in their issue tracker. Instead, you'll just switch to another browser and complain publicly when it does something you don't like or you don't get your password reset email. How selfish.

Shouldn't we consumers just cut to the chase and use foreign banks directly?

He just did. There's a video and ad hiding everything about the site.

To me, the site is "something I'll never know because you have to watch a video to find out." A simple sentence wouldn't have been taxing on the creators.

For clearance, we didn't put any ads on the video. And we took his directorial comments in account so we are actually shortening the video right now and doing some other improvements on it. Also working on the landing page to display more information about the app itself. But more feedback about the app itself and the concept will be beneficial for us till we update the page.

Great tip, but I thought it was going to be how to identify and remove all the digital cruft in your environment. Tools and packages that were tried, abandoned and forgotten.

Anyone have tips like that?

My method: I occasionally do a scorched-earth OS reinstall, and install very few packages and tools on the new installation. When I hit the speedbump of reaching for something naturally, I install it and move on.

It's kind of like a policy of throwing boxes out if you haven't touched them since your last move.

Anyone do anything different? Something more ongoing and less drastic?

"Pay them poorly."

I was with them until this. There's no reason to treat a valuable person as a throwaway, and poor pay does that.

The nose in the tent is that they didn't say it's full of water, they said it's full of [something I've never heard of], and presented in a newsy-alarming way, in venue where people are accustomed to getting snippets of news while they're doing something else. "Traffic on the freeway, be careful." "It's cold today, dress warm." "Something you've never heard of in the water, take precautions."

Suspension and disavowal probably went too far. A corporate and DJ apology would have been enough.

The left vertical bar all the way down the text makes it look like the entire text is a quote from somewhere else. I experienced unresolved tension, waiting to see who "really" wrote the text.

we have added a name to the end. Blog was just implemented last night.

They already have, or are in the process, to the extent that classroom time is dictated by the needs of preparing students for the flood of standardized tests in use today.

It's "artistic license" in the original sense.

"Google has taken aim at the companies who sell off their patents so they can be used in lawsuits."

Yeah, it's so much better when you can buy a whole company for the contained patents.
