Kudos on data launch! I have been using Hooks app for free for more than a year. How do you get your revenue?

I think that recent initiative by YC under sam to invest in startups that may herald breakthroughs in sustainable fission is a great start. This should lead to a healthy competition which so far has been missing since it used to be a government only venture for a long time.

Interesting times! Can we recursively keep on creating our better (or worse) selves for ever? How will copyright work for genetic designs?

Great work @joepie91_! I wish your service the very best and hope that would scale against the DMCA brigade.

Shouldn't it be "Twitter is building open source software"? Pointing out the obvious since most of the software companies are built on open source software but only a few build one.

There is nothing wrong with "copying" kernel. This is what the open source is aimed at: Infectious growth. In fact that was the right and smart thing to do.

Interesting times. There is no doubt that the legal punches thrown at Android have been anti-competitive and kills innovation instead of what there were meant to protect. For example reportedly Microsoft earns more from Android than selling Windows phone:

. If the patents were that useful for innovation, Microsoft would have been ahead of Google by miles.

Why is the use of term "butt-hurt" on increase on HN? Does this lend weight in any meaningful way and not leave a bad taste in mouth.

Is ad the only means a free product can survive at scale like Google, Facebook and Twitter? Free services (of good quality of bad) entice users to use their service and trap them into their cage for advertisers to peek at.

This is an amazing feat with Rust being a modern open alternative to C! So far many have tried and failed. Rust developers have learned well and Rust seems to be on right track.

In a parallel, HG Wells too imagined a society with two diverged class of human species. One serves as the prey and other as predator.
