youngthugger··on Introducing Pebble Time
I highly question yours... you sound crazy calling this better. The Apple Watch isn't the most beautiful designed gadget but you are making a really silly statement. It's honestly blowing my mind how you think this.
youngthugger··on How Apple became a car company
You assume it's very little pay off. You never really know what Apple would bring to the table if they did. Honestly I still can't believe they are trying to make a car. If they do it's very likely they know exactly what there doing.

Thank you I'm tired of this constant distorted view its really sad considering hackernews is built around intelligent conversations.
youngthugger··on Platforms Are Eating the World
I don't think Einstein has been proven wrong. He just said we don't have a full understanding of quantum physics. God playing dice hasn't won till this day. So far its a black box we haven't cracked.

Is learning how to create a hash table necessary for a software engineer?
youngthugger··on Real-Time Garbage Collection Is Real
I think more languages should adopt Swift and Objective-C's automatic reference counting. The only downside to ARC is retain cycle's which rarely happen in my experiance. A deterministic object life cycle just feels right.

Thanks mathattack on the reply. What you're saying is true.
youngthugger··on Wearing your Failures on your Sleeve
This is really hard for me to explain and I don't want people to think I'm being ignorant. I've tried to think deeply about other people's ideas. Sometimes you have to experience a problem to really understand why the idea is good.

I still feel that 80% of these startup ideas are really bad. Maybe there is something wrong in the way I look at them. I want to join a startup here in Santa Monica but so many people like to work on garbage. Can someone explain to me what is wrong with my view ?

youngthugger··on Urbit: a personal cloud computer
Can someone explain what is going on? Is this a new OS built from the ground up with it's own technologies ?
youngthugger··on Why I wish C# never got async/await
How does F# or C# async compare to GCD on Objective-C / Swift ? Is it similar?
