Plus, the amount of things in our world that will be controlled and performed by software is only going to grow. While more exposure to technology and better education will create …

I hate that you can't use the iPad mini as a cell phone. It's small enough now that in a lot of situations you can carry it around with you. And in those cases, it would be nice to…

Any idea what kind of severance package the developers received?

Why don't you guys put some stuff up on your website? Every section is just empty. As an indie game developer using Unity3d (and funnily enough an ex-Zynga employee too) I wouldn't…

I use Unity too. Even for 2d I think it is the best cross platform game engine if you don't mind spending some money. The latest Rovio 2d physics game even uses it. I used to be al…

Knowing what you do now, with the memories of the terrible bugs you had to work through due to Chrome / OSX, would you still choose HTML5 over other cross-platform game engines lik…

God, it's infuriating. "Let's not have a discussion about the actual article, let's just argue bullshit semantics about the definition of PC."

Also not sure why this would be considered HN worthy. The title seems interesting but when it's just a naive backpacker.... who cares?

HN loves get rich quick schemes!

Wow, it sure does look like the GitHub app supports other remote repos. Nice tip!

I don't think this works with Zynga since Pincus's shares have so much extra voting power.

It's hilarious how difficult it is to get a non-programmer on Windows setup on Bitbucket (to clone a repo and then push a commit). I don't blame this on Bitbucket, I blame the stat…

I hate how slow it is. After I get to the commit screen it thrashes my CPU and takes ages before my typing shows up. It's still the best on OSX though.

As an ex-employee I am saddened by my ever decreasing stock value =(

No one in this thread is offering up any data showing that their sales have gone down since the iOS 6 App Store has rolled out. My app sales seem to be unchanged. In fact, my free …

Actually it looks like the web view of iTunes Connect sales reports has data up to yesterday and my sales went back up. So, I'm not really seeing any change and I'm as "indie" as t…

My sales seems to have dropped but I really think we need more time to know for sure. With only 3 days of sales data since the iOS 6 launch (according to iTunes Connect Mobile) how…

Anecdotal evidence ahead: German hospitals make mistakes too, it's not just in the US. My premature daughter was born in Berlin and she had club feet (which was already known since…

This is simply not true; it seems like you didn't read the article.

Happens to me all the time here in Berlin. Very frustrating. Sometimes I have to scroll 2 screens away before I find the street labelled.

Are the features like vector maps, 3d buildings, and tilting only on Android? I've only used Google Maps on iOS.

That was my thought as well.

Does Cloudflare have any competitors yet?

Thanks. So I was understanding it correctly then, it is difficult to use this type of memory method with foreign languages. I will stick with spaced repetition =)

I'm having trouble figuring out what kinds of "vivid images" you would use for memorizing foreign language vocabulary words. For example, I'm trying to learn German right now. It s…
