So I'm trying to remember the name of this startup/web service (that I believe was acquired by Google in like 2010) that let you add a bunch of things you liked, and it knew how to…

This is it! Thank you!

Tangentially related: Does anyone remember the name of this startup/service that was on HN (I believe), that enables you to infer actions from plaintext. Eg: "Switch on the lights"…

That sounds pretty cool! Do you happen to remember the name of this app?

This looks really great. I just wanted to point out that the "Write a Post" feature doesn't seem to work. I wrote a test entry and clicked save, it says: Sorry, something went wron…

I apologize if it sounded that way, but I wasn't insinuating that I'm going to get into trouble. I'm just saying that it could get someone into trouble. As far as the "logging" goe…

I appreciate the effort the mods take in curating titles, I really do - but please spare articles like this at least? I clicked on this link at work (part-time at grad-school) and …

This looks really awesome. Also, you should check out Republia Times, one of the author's other games - you're the editor of the major newspaper in some country, and the pieces you…

This is OT: I've always wanted to take a crack at a couple of problems/semi-thought-experiments I came up with: 1) Find the verified Twitter account followed by minimum number of u…

Hi pattle - I know exactly what/how you're feeling - I stutter as well, and am currently interviewing. The biggest problem of stuttering during interviews is not the stuttering its…

This is aside the point of your blog post, but IMO it is entirely unreasonable to assume that you'll receive a digital download when you've bought a software on DVD. I'm a huge pro…

What do you mean by "may exist"? Failed! "asdjoiqndiqnw09d21eh09n20dnqdqddqw" may exist, try another name Are you using a bloom filter or something?

Nobody will believe me, but I just came to post this. Experienced programmers have so much to offer to young programmers. I even came up with a name for it - progrAMA

The OP has said that he doesn't want to be outed publicly just yet - it would be great if you could remove this.

I replied to @steveklabnik's tweet saying ( https://twitter.com/hardikr/status/293819210965082113 ) "There's also a search command. It's like grep, but with replace's syntax, and s…

Nick - Congrats on finishing a game - that's the biggest hurdle most developers face. It's great that you have such an awesome headstart. Keep at it and you should be a pretty good…

Congratulations! It's always great to read about new programmers.

I knew it was an ad. But, I wouldn't be surprised if a professional soccer player could pull that off. Also, could you tell me why you think it is "obviously fake"?

I'm more of a soccer fan, and there's this video of a famous soccer player Ronaldinho doing the "crossbar challenge" - from about 30-40 yards out, he repeatedly hits the crossbar w…

The MPEG-4 facial animation standard is quite bandwidth-efficient. I don't think any apps currently use it.

This is a great recap! A really useful addition would be the inclusion of the discussion threads of the articles.

I've always used the words "I don't know". My mother kept telling me she hated hearing those words. I can imagine that she was pissed that I didn't take a guess, but guess what? I …

This may not be a popular decision, but I chose to attend grad school. I now think that was the best decision I ever made.

This is fantastic news. I think this qualifies Github as a complete blogging engine now, with the plethora of static site generators available.

Thanks. That clarifies it up a bit. So could this summit result in a real threat to net neutrality?
