This is excruciatingly difficult. I have no experience with this sort of a test, and the method that I chose (albeit quickly and without a whole lot of thought) was to pick four si…

Man, I love The Impossible Game. Have you beat all four levels? I'm stuck on the "let's flip all this shit upside down randomly" level.

Thanks a lot for this link. When I was trying to quit smoking, I would always have a full pack and would rationalize "Well, it would be a waste of money to throw this pack out now.…

Hmm, interesting idea. Obviously a parody, but it makes a few valid points, that's for sure.

For the problems he's talking about, I would make this point: From my experience, after taking away features and just focusing on user experience, iOS 1.0 beats Android 2.x in near…

If I recall correctly, Zerigo's ( http://zerigo.com ) Watchdog service has a free tier. I've used their monitoring and DNS hosting for a while, and have been thrilled with everythi…

Is it really better to use? HN is incredibly simple, and everything works as expected. There's a few UI quirks with reddit that I don't particularly like. For example: I don't thin…

I think this is a valid idea. There's many times where there's things I'd like to discuss that is similar to, or related to, topics covered by Hacker News, but that I don't post he…

Hey guys, I'm a non-technical guy who has launched a successful site with a coder-friend, and we sold it for decent money (as far as two teenagers are concerned). I'm now looking t…

If this saves me say, 10 seconds, I'd love to say that it would add up over the course of a year... But in reality, I'm probably saving about ten seconds a year.

I couldn't agree more. Really don't see what the big deal is. In a perfect world, they wouldn't be selling my data, and I wouldn't have to pay for all the services I use. In the wo…

They cover this in the article: "Wasn’t it a bit hypocritical of Mr. Daisey to condemn Apple when he continued to buy the company’s products? “There are no alternatives in our ecos…

As far as your conclusions at the end, you're right. You definitely need to be better at letting people know what your app does. It took me until the anecdote about the paralyzed m…

Mr. Victor's personal site is one of the most impressive I've come across. It's borderline magical. Hate that he broke my back-button, though.

This is pretty awesome. Does anyone know if Android devices offer any kind of bluetooth-connected features for iOS devices?

Hey guys, Are there any recent examples in the consumer tech space that have, or are, building themselves up with the goal of being a profitable company and remaining majority owne…

Is that a domain name for your son in the future? I love the idea.

Could you elaborate on why you feel this way with some constructive criticism? All I see is a father who made something cool to teach his kid some fun things. Maybe you can't under…

An interesting solution to a problem; fascinating but gross read.

Hmm, that's interesting. I guess the environment issue isn't black and white. I guess what bothers me about all the people aiming for their government jobs is the fact that they're…

This program is as entry-level as it gets. No prerequisites, two years, assumes no prior knowledge. It's weak, but it's the best I could afford.

This seems like a good insight. It's true that most of the people I'm judging (sounds negative, but I guess that's what I'm doing) are the ones who are quite outspoken. perhaps the…
