    Incognito mode but with a password-protected permanent session

    Incognito mode was a huge leap forward in browsing concepts because, lets face it, we all have secrets. But I've noticed that I have tended to never get involved in communities tha…

    Interesting. Though, why when I activate my account does an entity called "Bllion Signup Wizard" ask me to grant access to my gmail contacts?

    I'm one-person team and I'm just looking for a service that will ping my servers at some interval and send me an email or text if the response doesn't match some pre-configured mat…

    Ask HN: Have the char limits for responses in the YC application been removed?

    I've applied before and I remember there being character limits, but they're not showing up when I load the application. I'm working on my application now and my responses might ch…

    Yeah, the HTML5 was key. It's way easier to listen to player events without really interacting with Netflix-specific stuff. I probably would have given up if I was doing it with si…

    My girlfriend and I tried using rabbit but we weren't happy with the performance. Their implementation is actually to open netflix on a virtual machine GUI and use browser tricks t…

    In our case, we did netflix that we manually synced up and just do videochat on skype. Facetime doesn't work because it hijacks your sound, turns down all other audio sources and y…

    Yeah it's like Cytube. My use case was that I'm in a long-distance relationship and we both are huge movie buffs. YouTube just simply doesn't have the content that we want. Netflix…

    Actually, there's another product that does that and somehow gets away with it. They actually open netflix on a virtual machine and use a ton of hacks to make it look like its you …

    At the startup I work for, we use LinkedIn all the time as a way to check out non-technical hires. It was the same for my previous company also. It's also a good way to scout for a…

    There are a ton of obvious fixes and small improvements, but do you find the overall concept to be something you could come back to? And yes, it's realllly slow right now. It wasn'…
