What was the fix?

Reverse the pitch for each of these examples. “Ours does x y z, theirs fails at abc.”

I think you’re right - by leveraging everyone who has now learned to create apps for iPhone and suddenly empowering them to create for Mac, too, we’re going to see a flood of under…

Whoa. Anyone have any ideas for use cases? The article mentions manipulating tiny materials - like what? How would that work?

I love that the mini has been refreshed with the retina display - though was hoping for the new form factor (no button + smaller bezels)

Did you look at the screenshot? The small, greyed-out “Sponsored” text is quite small and everything else is identical to a real listing. Really is a dark pattern. Especially given…

Nicely done! This is not trivial work. Have spent a lot of time working with ImageMagick + lots of tweaking to try and get background removal working. Getting it working for a more…

I believe a number of brands use software to monitor social channels for tags/locations related to their brand. This happens, of course, in near realtime and then it becomes fairly…

The problem is particularly bad for packages sent to condo buildings. Amazon pickup points are good, but still require you to go pick it up (and delivery notifications are usually …

This is dope. I second a name change. How about http://hn.chat ?

Or the more polite variation: "'battery' actually means 'array', so it's being used appropriately in this case"

As I understand it, it is designed to put common misspellings/close-spellings of the three word phrase (eg. cat.mice.dog vs. cat.mice.dogs) in totally different parts of the earth,…

How about a photo stream w/ comments where users post 'what I'm doing instead of smoking'?

Sort of like the old Voodoo Envy power brick w/ Ethernet: http://blog.laptopmag.com/hands-on-with-the-voodoo-envys-wi-...

Deplorable. Where notebooks are concerned, it reminds me of a TrueCrypt decoy password feature that would unlock a 'clean' hidden volume when entered in place of your 'working' vol…

Could you use a url parameter on the end of the real url (e.g. example.com/page?source=email_[date]), and then use the history object to strip the param once they land on the url (…

This looks brilliant! Wish I had an android device to test. This would be great on iOS 8, which allows developers to bake photo editing tools and custom filters into the stock Phot…

I've got a fairly unique take on local trip planning @ 80%. If you want to chat, shoot me an email!

well done.

You can also use google: https://www.google.com/webhp?tbs=rcp:1 Search, then use 'Search Tools' to narrow by ingredient

I wonder if the most efficient way to do this is to simply subsidize the child's earnings for the family on the promise that the child will be sent to school.
