dadads··on Zuckerberg wannabes squander careers
Blocked by a registration wall, unless there's a popular hack around this that I don't know about.
dadads··on What is the point of "I am feeling lucky" button, with the redirect?
Because sometimes I like to be surprised
dadads··on Ask HN: Showing personal projects to potential employers
Speaking from my own internship experience:

1. The type of project you're doing: If you're applying to a game company, then your projects better be about AI, particle effects, or gameplay related

Bonus points if what you are doing fits the job description (in terms of the language you use or what your project is about)

2. Good coding practices (formatting, documentation, readability): Nobody wants to work with a guy who writes unreadable code

dadads··on Calling Bullshit on Unpaid Interships
I have to disagree with calling unpaid internships a rip-off.

As a student, I see this as a way of getting something on the resume to break the catch-22 situation of having zero experience.

dadads··on China Is Already Blocking Google+
I find it silly that China blocks Google+, but not 4chan.

dadads··on Show HN: Overlap.me - a new way to meet people & share your identity online
This is an interesting concept.

You could definitely release interesting stats on what people like, particularly on how certain subjects correlate with each other.

dadads··on Ask HN: HN Parents - Rate my content marketing / customer development
I went to http://riskref.com and I think I found the right site (based on your description of it).

However, after looking at the site I found the description of the service a little vague. I'm not entirely sure if "life-changing disasters" refers to things like earthquakes/tornadoes, stolen identities, or perhaps car accidents?

I basically didn't understand what you are trying to do, and all I see is an e-mail entry form which I'm hesitant to fill-in (because I don't know what I'm signing up for).

dadads··on Google (possibly) rolling out updated UI
Explanation: This morning, Google suddenly looked different on my laptop. I believe that I was lucky enough to see the new UI as it was being A/B-tested.
dadads··on Rate our startup: Tribesports - a social network for sportspeople
That's a pretty nice site, and I would certainly use it if were not for me having my passion somewhere else.

If you don't mind, may I ask how you got your initial users?

dadads··on Early access codes to MyCube for HN Readers
I'm not entirely sure what I'm supposed to do with the site.
dadads··on There we go... "Japan scientist synthesizes meat from human feces"
If you look at the youtube videos poster http://www.youtube.com/user/ill318 you notice that it also links to videos about how british royalty eats people. Im pretty sure this is an epic troll. http://www.honda-tech.com/showthread.php?t=2802202 for similar hillarity
dadads··on Rate My App: LimitGrid ( aka 10 steps to quit your job )
This could be my new FML.
dadads··on FeedHint.com: Make your own personalized Hacker News feed
This is a cool UI for doing search, really inspiring!

I hope you won't mind me using this concept for my next app creations.
