hackernews | 2,007 | I absolutely agree with his thoughts on the power of admitting fault. It's a matter of taking responsibility for ones self and it shows character. If only everyone took this advice.

I've really gotten to like Trac though, and I've used most of the tools out there. Trac just gets it done. I think the biggest plus is the Wiki. | 51 |
hackernews | 2,007 | Start up doing what? That's right, we really don't know. | 15 |
hackernews | 2,007 | Fascinating. I'm at a startup that's an S-corp too and wonder about stuff like this for the future. | 27 |
hackernews | 2,007 | Well its not a totally useless link submission, gives people a chance to comment on the site. I really like the idea of this site, it was the entrepreneurial stuff that brought me to reddit in the first place. It seems like a missed opportunity for reddit though... | 53 |

hackernews | 2,007 | I wonder what this means for practical system design.
Do people currently build assumptions about hard drive
failure patterns into their systems, in a way that
they should change? I suppose independent failure
(i.e. copying data to two drives is better than storing
it on just one) is the main assumption behind e.g... | 77 |

hackernews | 2,007 | It's cool and all that clicking on the up arrow instantly resorts submissions, but it's also annoying when one is trying to read items in a certain order. I suggest simply removing the triangle.

hackernews | 2,007 | Some problems:
1. There is no direct link back to the main page from the discussion area.
2. Voting seems to be irremediable, if you vote by accident you can’t unvote. | 47 |

hackernews | 2,007 | great work, I've been waiting for this!
features that would be cool:
* real user-profiles
* rss-feed
* startup-wiki for general discussions | 34 |
hackernews | 2,007 | I like the idea of a wiki. After interesting discussions it would be possible to clean it up and store it in an accessible format. | 27 |
hackernews | 2,007 | How to market to smart people (2007) | 10 |
hackernews | 2,007 | Nice site. I've always believed that focussed social networks are the ones that work out in the end. However functionality-wise, the site is still very primitive. Lots of improvements are needed. Basic functionality like saving an article is absent. Anyway, I know those are on their way. | 58 |
hackernews | 2,007 | You should be able to improve over naive RAID by pairing a relatively-high-probability-of-failure drive with a low prob one.
i.e. what you *shouldn't* do is the common practice of putting two new drives in a mirror, since they are both in the infant mortality part of the failure curve. What this data suggests is tha... | 117 |
hackernews | 2,007 | It's not so clear to me that a PhD is much use at a start-up
in general; you'd probably learn more relevant technical
skills at a regular programming job, and the mental habits
you're likely to learn in graduate school will actively hurt
you at a start-up. Unless you are lucky or careful about who
you work with an... | 75 |

hackernews | 2,007 | I've read it. I'm pretty clued up on the history of IT and the various backgrounds of those involved, but I still found that it had a lot of original, inspiring content. I would definitely recommend it. | 47 |
hackernews | 2,007 | There is some sampling bias in terms of what's discussed, but you can still get good information about the good moves and missteps each company has taken. I suspect that mistakes like "Didn't listen to users" are valid mistakes whether you're talking about Infogami disappearing or about Intel's Pentium II bug.

hackernews | 2,007 | Thanks for the rationale. I'm most interested in the ARC aspect of the site. | 17 |
hackernews | 2,007 | You've filled a hole reddit was starting to dig(g) in my life. Thanks! | 18 |
hackernews | 2,007 | I don't know if it's the best, but it's the only one I use. It's simple interface is what I find most useful about it. If I need more (which is rare), I use the GIMP. | 47 |
hackernews | 2,007 | Is there going to be some way to downvote/mark as read or otherwise clear links we don't want to view right now? | 26 |
hackernews | 2,007 | Companies would be interested in saving on cooling costs if its not providing any significant benefit. | 17 |
hackernews | 2,007 | I don't think the fact that the site is written in Arc makes the site itself any more interesting. Arc is interesting, as is the fact that it's to the point where it could be used to make this site. | 45 |

hackernews | 2,007 | Really? I was most interested in the role that news.ycombinator.com is going to play in their application process. I think that it's an absolutely great idea and not only helps Paul but start-up-would-be's as well. | 49 |
hackernews | 2,007 | In case you're interested in reading the report, it's at http://216.239.37.132/papers/disk_failures.pdf at least as of 20070220.
The report has quite a few graphs, but it has a surprisingly unstatistical flavour about it. | 58 |
hackernews | 2,007 | Blast, meant to do a self-referential post and instead accidentally linked my post to one of my comments instead! Oh well. | 28 |
hackernews | 2,007 | This comment added through the comment page of a new news story.
Note: If you came from the news story, click comment up above. : ) | 30 |
hackernews | 2,007 | Yes, really. That's not to say I'm uninterested in the role that news.ycombinator will play in their application process, too. Once word gets out, it will be very interesting to see what kind of traffic is posted and how the signal/noise ratio changes. | 58 |

hackernews | 2,007 | This is great. It's always a pain in the neck to open up an editor to do something as small as resize to make an avatar. Another thing I like about this is that the image is already in your browser and to-size, so you can kind of get a feel for how it's going to look on an actual page. | 68 |
hackernews | 2,007 | Wow. These "crackpot" ideas are so 2004 (some were stupid in 2004 and are still stupid today). But I guess the enterprise hasn't gotten them yet. | 45 |

hackernews | 2,007 | Depends on how far along the PhD he is.The social argument was bizarre, I agree.
