Thank you!!!

Thank you!!!

On Aug 5, 1891 Puck magazine published a cover related to privacy. Does anyone at HN know where I can get a copy of this magazine? I'm willing to pay. The title is linked to the pi…

don't sweat it. not all, but lots of people here expect to be treated with kid gloves and get outraged at even the mildest criticism

This is something I never understood about Firefox OS. Why did they not package it up in a way that it could be easily installed on someone's existing smartphone. I was eager to gi…

I agree, its totally out of control. Kind of ridiculous when you go to a concert and the majority of people are watching the show on the screen of their phones rather than directly…

I doubt that's the rationale. No offense, but you sound like someone who only knew about him because of his show. He's been doing a lot of different things and I would say that arg…

I'm not sure if it works that way in real life. Dreamweaver made it really simple to create websites but look at the quality of what was produced. Any good developer would not use …

This is a taste of the future. More and more people are creating things using tools and frameworks but not really understanding the underlying concepts. When I pick up a bookshelf …

I don't think it was dismissive at all. When a post rises to the front page of HN people are going to post comments both agreeing or disagreeing. In my case, I don't see what all t…

Hasn't this already been done? It's called a web app using html, css and javascript

Wouldn't that be a huge security flaw? Someone with access to your phone could uninstall the app then read all the messages.

it looks like some default limits are in place for this. Here's what I found: Max for seconds: 999 Max for minutes: 999 Max for hours: 23

When did this happen? As of March 2, Rap Genius was still seeking to get money refunded. http://venturebeat.com/2013/03/02/rap-genius-responds/

If its only a few customers that are bent out of shape, how come you haven't quickly offered them refunds?

I've already tried that with no success

Thats not true. I've had several employers tell me that not having a LinkedIn account was amateurish.

It will probably get to a point where employers think you are lying because "everyone" has a facebook account.

I know I would be very interested. The company I currently work for is attempting to do something similar, so it would be good to see how you guys did it and what the pitfalls are.…

Why do you assume he's not being honest and then criticize him for that? Could it be that pg is trying not to be a dick?

right, but wouldn't low numbers to begin with indicate problems beyond just the website? What's the metric then? If the site is generating 100k a year and you bump conversions by 1…

Am I the only one who thinks perhaps his expectations were too high. I'd be extremely happy if the redesign I'm working on increased the conversion rate by 20%. How is that failure…

Basically, I'm trying to appease higher ups who insist that we need an app, but dont understand all the complexities about maintaining separate codebases, app store approval proces…
