Hey, I work on Fabric and we recently added some new pages that could help. If you have trouble using our plugins with your project, check out our manual onboarding process at http…

Or try to predict availability based on recent queries. If there is only one stall open and someone checked its status 30s ago, respond that "maybe" a stall is free.

There was also this[1] accident where a Tesla utterly destroyed an Accord in a head-on collision. Again, the fatalities were not occupants of the Tesla. The Model S weighs roughly …

The plan is $20 for 1GB/mo of LTE data, so you can make calls and use data on the go. I might not have been clear enough about that in the post.

Unfortunately a huge number of those bikes are gathering dust in a garage. Europeans bike 188 km/yr vs 40 km/yr for the US [1]. It would be really interesting to see the rate of ch…

Oficio looks fantastic. Those desks facing the window are just about the ideal spot for me. Are there any coworking spaces like these around Palo Alto or Mountain View? Hacker Dojo…

No, I bailed out when I got to the third question. I appreciate the intention behind this though.

Did Path destroy itself with questionable ethics[1] or is there really no way to compete with Facebook anymore? [1] http://techcrunch.com/2012/02/07/path-uploads-your-iphones-a...

This is really cool. I sent a request to my City to join. I'd be happy to donate some time improving their website if the source were public.

Major self-selection bias in this poll. People who don't care about bitcoin (and therefore own zero) won't click on the poll.

It's really refreshing to see some intelligent commentary on the issues SF is facing, as opposed to the mindless tech-bashing that has been going on in the local media. The only wa…

Bart serves most of the Bay Area, not just the City. As far as I'm concerned, a frugal life in the burbs is a good life. Most of the developers I know live that way.

Bart workers pay $92/mo for health insurance. [1] This post is comparing the income for one Bart employee to the expenses for a family of four. I'm not sure why child care is inclu…

FTL has a fantastic soundtrack with a chill, electronic sound. Great coding music.

First: SUVs don't survive crashes particularly well This is outdated information, SUVs are now far safer than cars. Death rate (per 1M vehicle years) for 4WD midsize SUV: 23. Midsi…

Pretty sure this is satire, but Poe's law strikes again

Nicely done, I'm on level 11 and having a good time with it so far. A question and some feedback: I've always wondered how people do level design for puzzle games like this. Is the…

Why does a drop need to fall in order to prove the theory? Isn't seeing the drip forming enough?

Push notifications from the GMail app and Mailbox are not the same as what you get with Mail.app. With Mail.app, mail is downloaded in the background and immediately available when…

As a work-from-home dad with a very flexible schedule, I spend quite a bit of time at the park during work hours. My experience is closer to yours than most others in this thread. …

I first came across this idea in this NPR article: http://www.npr.org/blogs/13.7/2010/09/29/130221453/how-to-li... I haven't been very successful in applying the suggestions. I ten…

This is perfect. It was incredibly easy to move over from Google Reader. If you decide to run some simple ads, I would be happy to pay for an ad-free version. I'd say this has pote…

The video mentions that transferring heat to the impeller is a challenge, but it wasn't clear to me how they overcame this. Is the space between the CPU and the impeller so small t…
