I don't know anyone working in tech that uses facebook. That would be like being an obese fitness instructor, your actions and your knowledge would be at constant conflict. Only explanation would be that these people are either lying or insane (psycho-/sociopath).

Yeah exactly, these are artist renditions made by someone who doesn't even work for Apple.

Glad to see he made it out of Sweden in time and that this time his millions didn't go for a wife that divorced him just for the money.

> I don't think China will be able to compete internationally in the software industry.

That is a very self-centered point of view, in recent european TED talks there were speakers like Mikko Hypponen from F-Secure, that there should be "european" versions of Google, Facebook, so we can avoid all the dragnet datamining etc. unethical web development solutions and NSA spying that somehow pass in the US.

I browse so many non-mobile websites (such as forums) that I do it without thinking about it, I actually had to pick up my phone just now to see how I actually use HN. Wasn't a problem at all. I don't know if the experience is more "painful" on other mobile browsers, but the experience is flawless on Safari.

I can't find anything on the internet with my real name and there are no pictures of me anywhere, I love it.

Lol what? HN is the most simple website I visit nowadays, aside from plain html and apache file listing. There really isn't any way to make it easier, simpler and faster without sacrificing usability.

You mean doing a pinch gesture with your fingers to zoom is painful?

Uber should make a social media website, that way nobody would care. All kind of shady business or lack of ethics are completely forgotten, as long as people get to post selfies and show off their socioeconomic status to other losers lile them.
