Thanks to the people who put this together. It's one of the few things I look forward to having arrive in my inbox.

Reading through the issue it looks like another good one.

Does the graphic on page 31 render oddly for anyone else? I have random characters all over the image, it doesn't seem correct. ( Using Preview.app on Mac OS X 10.5.8 )

That's weird. Can you do a screenshot?

I didn't appreciate Hacker Monthly until this issue. I missed "Lessons Learned From 13 Failed Software Products" when it passed through HN. Too many late nights at work!

Lesson learned: summarize the strong signals in dynamic data. Not everyone looks for changes 10 times a day.

On a related note, is there a RSS feed of the top daily HN links? It would be great to review past articles and comment threads when I get back from vacations and business trips

Yea, it does for me. I think the issue might be with Preview. I opened it with Adobe Reader, and it worked fine.

fatguy said the following and it was dead-ed; I'm not sure why.

I'd love to have an audio version of these.
