• If you are looking for an All-in-one Content Management System, I doubt WordPress or any other competitors would satisfy you.

• WordPress comes with an attitude and a path. And as long as you are in this same attitude and path, you are fine. Otherwise it's best to part ways...and stop complaining...

• You should have spent more time building plugins to complement the WordPress System. You waited for others to deliver to you... (which is a bad call for a developer of your stature)


hope your obituary reads also like this, fellow hackers !


He is trying to say Gandhi is flawed and trying desperately to prove it.

I celebrate any man with many flaws who goes on to create wonderful impact in the world.

I don't think I learned much from the original post. I already knew Gandhi was flawed. That is why he was wonderful. Being a man with many flaws, he achieved what was thought impossible.

This reaffirms that we each can change the world despite our own deep flaws.

Critics like to find flaws in each detail and strip us all naked. Thats what the original post seemed to me.


I learned a lot. I don't think the article is of a high quality, but it has now broadened my viewpoint on Gandhi. I find it hard to believe in something with no faults. And it seems that human nature shows that the more adamant someone is in being pure and showing the world, the more a deeper darker side they seem to have.

I hate it when people are portrayed as super human. Finding out about their weird quirks takes them down a peg..gando is just a bloke...


I read it ! thank you for your efforts in helping the original posts ! says a lot about you.


Great points. Thank you.

It is better to learn the task yourself, before hiring the person on that task. I believe this mantra works in most situations in a start up.


Why does CTO of Adobe want Apple to open up to them when Flash is not opened up to Apple and others ?

towards the later part of his text, he argues for an open access to all devices, yet his app is not open (to apple's accusation that flash crashes a lot and part of that is others can't fix the problems that flash causes their systems- flash being a closed system). Maybe one can illuminate


well this sucks.

but i feel the hack was done today instead of tomorrow to let them know the hackers displeasure on something. but not to really hit them when it matters... (which is tomorrow for apple presentations )

maybe its just a warning perhaps.

I am sure techcrunch is working on this...

wordpress systems are pretty stable but all systems have a loophole.. on many systems, you can't avoid the hacking because it is the human errors (or negligence)


More likely it was an automated attack carried out by bots. I'm still putting my money on the recent rash of non-secure FTP exploits (client side).


This was no automated attack. The page was updated with a series of what could only be hand written messages as TC tried to overwrite what the hacker was uploading. At one point the whole page turned to "o_O".


Apple event is Wednesday, not tomorrow.


I always let out a disappointed sigh when I have to remind people of things like this, but tomorrow is Wednesday for a lot of the world.


Yes, I'm aware of that. However, it's not for any of the relevant parties in this story (TC, HN, Apple), and the Apple event is a fixed number of hours away, regardless of what time zone you're in, and that number of hours is sufficient that the event is not "tomorrow". Or I'm up way too late and not thinking clearly :)


i disagree on a pure simplicity view.

I like the fact i can concentrate on the article than on the author or picture or his/her CV (logical trend when you start adding a lot of info about users)

but frankly its the simplicity equation.


i think, you can make creative use out of boring office spaces with "creative interior decor."

Maybe concentrate more on "interior designer" on a "boring office space" for a change.

When in startups better to be frugal and creative.


Sine when do "frugal" and "interior designer" go together?
