    Are you all kidding me? This resume is amazing and if he isn't being super humble in describing most of his skills I don't know how he created this.

    To be fair, the 5th avenue New York store consistently "over-indexes" (as the article puts it) with shoppers of Asian heritage. Until recently at least, it was not very easy to buy…

    I feel like the mention of the NSA and PRISM in this article is so tangential to the issue as to be misplaced. Why mention the NSA here when there's no evidence or reason to suppos…

    The first assumption the author makes, that "1. Everything Google does is open (either because Gruber believes this a priori, or because Google says so or someone somewhere believe…

    Thank God! The current inspector is horrendous. I don't know how to find anything, and I use Xcode regularly.

    Kind of misleading headline since he was missing(and possibly dead) since before the bombings.

    Thanks a lot for your feedback. I absolutely agree with your point. I actually didn't realize pinboard was a sharing service at all for the first few months that I had it. I wound …

    I'm not, but I'll definitely check it out. Since this application is so simple, it only requires one curl request and I just use the http authentication method. Working on this sma…

    That's cool. I hadn't thought of using a tag for this. As I said below in another reply, I just don't fill in the extended text or I mark an article as private in order to keep it …

    Yes, I should have mentioned that only articles that are shared (public) and that have extended description text are processed by my script. That way I don't wind up with any artic…

    Thank you very much for the polite feedback. This is my first submission and I was expecting worse. I fixed the issue you pointed out.

    Show HN: My pinboard-backed link blog

    I recently re-jiggered my blog to use pinboard as it's CMS. A cron job runs once every 15 minutes and generates a static HTML file of my most recent 15 posts. Yes it is fairly limi…

    Well, hypercritical is done now too so there goes that idea.

    I definitely understand the feeling that the podcast has become stale. I still enjoy it very much, but topics have had to become more and more specific lately and as such I feel th…

    Apple's real or fictitious woes aside, if the stock closed up 2.06 to 527.68 on Friday, how is Friday's close the lowest Apple has been in 6 months? Wouldn't that be Thursday's clo…

    Could have used that $250 million to pay for big bad Obamacare that papa claims will force him to cut employee hours.

    I thought John had written another article on the subject but it turns out this is actually two years old.

    Does anyone ales feel as though the majority of questions like the example in the article are asked by children? I almost always assume it is a young child asking a question like t…

    Eh, don't bank with them yet if that's what you think. This industry needs pioneers and anything with the scale and complexity of a bank is going to have some bugs no matter how mu…

    Totally agreed. I know views are split on Gruber and I fell on the side of genuinely liking his blog and The Talk Show, but I think I'm done with both. I can't imagine how someone …
