    Ask HN: What is the best online course on UI/UX/Design?

    Hi all, I am a developer without much design sense. I'm looking for an online course (free or paid) that will teach me enough for me to be able to take a theme from theme forest an…

    This thread needs to be killed. The website looks exactly like HN with most of the content from HN, but has some fishy looking links embedded to look like HN upvoted stories. For s…

    1) Online: I just skim articles to find something that interest me. I am not in "knowledge absorbing" mode at this time. It's mostly just fun/boredom. I try to limit how much time …

    Few questions for you before any advice can be given 1. Do you have any official documentation over the ownership of startup? 2. If so, how much do you and the other founder each o…

    Thanks for your reply. I am definitely leaning towards Hetzner. Are you concerned about the DDoS issue? (related to https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=6577465 )

    Thanks for the reply. I'm fine with any location for the server. Right now, just looking at keeping the costs down.

    Ask HN: Which dedicated server provider do you currently use?

    I am looking at setting up a dedicated server, but am having a hard time figuring out which one. Hetzner seems the best when it comes to bang for the buck, but should I be concerne…

    Ask HN: Which podcasts are you listening to these days?

    I recently found Alex Blumberg's podcast called "Startup Podcast" and loved it. I'm curious to know which podcasts are being listened to by the members of the HN community. Other p…

    I try and spend 20-30 minutes everyday going through the "new" tab and up-voting the new submissions I find interesting (think of it like volunteer work). Somehow I tend to up vote…

    I just noticed that the said "bully" has stated in his comments that you had integrated inspectlet.com. I checked it out and it looks like a screen recording service. If this is tr…

    AFAIK - Yes. The developer could potentially run the analytics in the background html and from the content scripts track events sending the url as parameters.

    I've seen loads of extensions that use Google Analytics to track user behavior. They of course post this on the details page with a link to the Opt-Out. Could you tell us more abou…

    If you can tell us about your customer segment, we would be better able to give you suggestions. As an example, ads do not work very well for a highly technical crowd, like the one…

    A demo or some screenshots would definitely help me understand how this works. I understand what it does, but have no idea how it does that. Most people wouldn't bother signing up …

    It really depends on what you are building. If your domain is say Retail, then you should try and find someone with that domain expertise. I am of course assuming that you are a te…

    I am launching a document translation service. Don't have a website up yet, so nothing that I can point you to. Sorry. The user will upload their document, make payment and downloa…

    Ask HN: How do you create your TOS and Privacy Policies?

    Ask HN: What are you favorite HN threads of 2013?

    I had taken a break from HN for most of 2013 and I'm sure I've missed some gems. What are your favorite threads that you have seen here in the last year?

    If I had to look for one single thing in a CTO to head my new startup - it would be a person who is able to answer - "No. I don't know how to do that. But I will figure it out and …

    I believe that the question you should be asking yourself is this - Can BaaS (or any other service) help me get to the market right now at the lowest cost possible. For any such co…
