Not even close. WP was far superior to Word. WP didn't win out because WP Corp didn't make the jump to Windows fast enough.

MS lied to IBM about OS/2 - they were collaborating on it, until MS created NT.

MS history is filled with strong-arm tactics and lies.
Empower Network 100% Commissions Review
It feels like that, doesn't it. I had the same thought going through the clunky process to try to make this happen.

WebOS is a hell of a platform; it's a damn shame it's probably going to die on the vine.
Now semi off topic, aren't they killing webos? Why would you still want to become a developer? The $150 price is a good deal though...

Ask HN: Commercial Lisp implementations?
Although I've had some exposure to CL and Scheme, I've never had to use either in a production environment. Can anyone comment on successes or problems they've had with any particular implementation, either free or commercial? I'm also interested if anyone can comment on their experiences with Clojure vs. Common Lisp or Scheme. Thanks in advance.
Why do people love Jobs? For better or worse he is\was the face of the company. Its actions reflect on him, especially since he was the man in charge of the company and set policy.
It's all about stuff like "the winner writes history" and "the best marketing/coolest looking guy" too.

Obviously Apple and SJobs are far worse than Microsoft and BGates. SJobs has a vision and motivated by it, to do anything to achieve it. BGates is more of an ordinary man.

That's why BGates final goal in life is not to "hit android until its dead lying on the floor" but instead "lets donate most money which i dont even need to try to make the world a better place".

Fucking hell of a difference if you ask me.

Heck, with all their wrongs, current Windows is actually pretty damn good, and Microsoft Research has awesome stuff released every now and then.
It was far from perfect. But do you remember just how awful it was to go fishing for jumpers in your computer's tower case after they popped off? And you had to keep lots of spare jumpers around because some memory addresses and IRQs required more physical jumpers to specify than shipped with the card. Yes, yes, jumpers were cheap... But also hard to order and impossible to get hold of on short notice unless you had friends with spares.

I occasionally rearranged which IRQs/memory cards used specifically to use fewer jumpers so that I would have enough.

PnP wasn't technically amazing. Yes, PCI was much better. Jumpers sucked.

Wha? The price of oil is going up because there are billions of new consumers of petroleum on the world stage. Speculation has caused prices to spike in recent years, but you'd be crazy to think that we'll ever see $1 gas again.
Product Launch Formula
well those clients, my dear, can go FUCK themselves.

money is not that important to me.

(so what, I am passionate about this. IE6 is like installing a trojan on your computer.)

btw. why is Hacker News so badly slow?
It may be because a lot of 'the rich' don't really need anything other than what they already have. There's not much to buy that's important to a lot of people with the money to buy it. Frankly, there really aren't that many truly useful or interesting products or services.

It was illustrative to me while reading the other HN articles on wealth. Some of those who have already sold their companies for millions haven't changed their life style much. They still buy the same things, still live pretty much the same way. Maybe travel more. Otherwise, the extra capital just goes into more investments that help to further inflate the established capital markets.
Technical curiosity?

I've found the open source version of intellij + scala plugin most impressive. Reliable code completion and everthing i've come to expect from a java IDE. I've had much less success with scala plugins for Eclipse and Netbeans. Without the intellij plugin for Scala I wouldn't have chosen Scala.
