    One of the long withstanding issues with Python 3 has been that some of the major libraries have yet to support it. I think this is great news for the Python community. Hopefully m…

    This is true, but their ratios are remaining relatively the same. "Soylent 1.5 has a 94 percent increase in omega-3 fatty acids (DHA, ALA), a 92 percent increase in the omega-6 fat…

    Neat. This is very helpful. Hopefully it actually fixes the WiFi performance issues. I created an Alfred workflow for myself based on the terminal commands listed in the article to…

    I'd go out on a limb and say that anyone who's been President of the United States is smarter than you (or almost everyone). It takes a lot of intellect and masterful knowledge of …

    Nice. I'd love to see templates so you can easily customize depending on what kind of environment you want so you can start from zero. E.g. 1. Development 2. Design 3. Engineering …

    This is neat. I think it'd be pretty awesome if it were possible to download all the dmg's/installers/apps in a folder/drive without installing them so at a later date you could a)…

    I think this is the first time in recent history that a company actually took care of its users after acquisition. Most of the time after the deadline to export your content, it's …

    This almost seems too good to be true. Can you stream .MKV files too? Looks like there's no iOS or native apps yet. I guess we just use our browser and stream directly?

    IMO, Crashplan's service is terrible. On a university network I was never able to max out my upload. With BackBlaze I was able to max it out. Crashplan's built on Java, which is th…

    Rejection is inevitable. If you're not rejected now, somewhere down the road you will be. If you haven't been rejected, get practice in getting rejected. If you have been rejected,…

    Well done. Everything is accurately explained using simple terminology. I'd love to see this expand beyond just layouts. CSS is overwhelming to beginners, but this is dead simple w…

    The website is so nice, and I thought all the material would be from the Superhero.js team too. Upon further review, they link to other sites, and some of them are not as user frie…

    Firstly, I enjoyed his talk. It was pretty insightful into the ways so many businesses and corporations today think, and how we've lost track of building the future. However, there…

    I backed this project as an early-bird. I'm not sure why you need 4 memory buttons for the deluxe frame. All I need is one more button (maybe two)! Just let me set the height I wan…

    As mentioned in another comment[1], the reason HN grew and got off the ground was because of who was behind the incubator/site. PG was well known in the scene when it started. I ce…
