This thing is DOA.

Companies do in fact file use tax (in CA). Why open yourself up to FTB action for ~8% on your Amazon purchases?

Ah, good old HN opinion as fact.

There's no way this only hit 250k users. I have a bunch of Twitter accounts for testing and whatever, created over many years, and they all received this email.

I'm not sure if you're being intentionally facetious, but I'm pretty sure Iceland is a sovereign nation, and not a US territory. That might have something to do with it.

Everything you just stated is gimmick. Physical keyboards are over. And the "true multitasking" sort of works (pretty much as well as Anroid) only because they bolted 2GB of RAM on…

Except they're both clueless about battery use in planes.

Anyone know why?

What does this comment have to do with the linked article?

Welcome to HN. Where we state opinions as fact and anecdotes as truth, usually with some hand wavey out in case we're called on BS. :)

You don't know how pricing infrastructure works. Just because Utah doesn't know how to run public transit doesn't mean no one else can and do so with decent financials.

We've tried switching from GH Enterprise to Stash (because of the $5000 thing, which pisses me off and makes me feel like I'm being ripped off at the same time!), but it's really "…

Please don't listen to the idiots telling you to charge a one-off fee for SaaS. You're not 37signals and unless you have a couple of million burning a hole in your pocket, you shou…

There's nothing innovative about a bad business model. One-time forever pricing for a service which costs you ongoing money to run is suicide unless you're subsidizing it somehow. …

You missed the obvious reason: Money. Lots and lots of money.

Safari 6 is excellent. Faster than Chrome on OS X.

"Her prospects look grim. Rep. Darrell Issa (R., Calif.)"... And that's when everyone should stop reading. Issa is a tea party loon.

This isn't Fox News. Please go away.

Boeing would be over if they decided to kill the 787 -- there's literally no way that's going to happen. Why would they kill it? The problems really aren't that bad and are being b…

The problem is that this is a link to DataStax. :)

I don't know if this is heretical to say, but when I think about services that people should look up to in terms of architecture, I don't think of Netflix. See all the downtime the…

Yes, then you start thinking about the workload of the average webapp...
