New comment by tyohn in "College Grads Taking Low-Wage Jobs Displace Less Educated"

Out of curiosity... do you have a degree? I wonder if the businesses owner's background has any influence on the decision. "School is a place where former A students teach mostly B students to work for C students"

I work for a merchant also... high volume low ticket. My thought is: Since most of our customer transactions (swipes) occur without any cashier involvement - how would V/MC know that the "real" card wasn't present?

New comment by tyohn in "The worm that regrows its head, and memories, when decapitated"

Makes we wonder - if somehow we could train our bodies to transfer memories to other body parts... which leads to all sorts of interesting possibilities.

Where would you draw the line? Why not simply monitor and track everyone everywhere all the time because hey they if they did something wrong then you'd be good to go with the proof... and we all know if you don't do anything criminal you don't have anything to hide...

New comment by tyohn in "Ask HN: Best book you read in 2011"

tyohn — Tue, 27 Dec 2011 15:57:49 +0000

What Technology Wants by Kevin Kelly - I highly recommend reading this book. The title describes what the book is about ~ as a hacker it might just make you rethink everything you do.

New comment by tyohn in "Man with multiple degrees fails standardized test for children"

Wow - after reading the comments on this thread I have to say that I am thoroughly disappointed in the HN community. If you replaced the word math(ematics) with a religion of your choice you'd see the same kind of fanaticism you often see from religious zealots.

The God of math has spoken: obey, conform or be cast out...There is nothing other than Me. All other gods require Me to make them whole - in fact you can't even think without Me... Now go forth and preach my wisdom because there is no other wisdom other than Me.

This may seem a little out there but maybe Google should buy MySpace and incorporate it into G+?

That is the exact comment I gave to Google (via the feed back link) when I changed back to the "old" version.
