It seems as though they have gotten lots of coverage[1], and it is perplexing to read someone claim that they follow startups, yet not have heard of Blippy. Check out their Angel investor list, about 10 posts on TC, and it boggles the mind

You realize you can look at their finances in the S-1[1] that they filed? [1] http://sec.gov/Archives/edgar/data/1271024/00011931251114221...

This is simply untrue as I've operated. These companies will often take advantage of you if you are not aware. If you utilize a competent SIP trunk provider, they will go to bat for you, and you should never relinquish a number. I realize I

A Mifi is a mobile router (EV-DO>>> wifi), I simply sold my usb modem, and then bought a brand new Mifi for full price. I never gave Gizmo5 a dime, but it was the same performance with my Flowroute[1] setup, and even my own Milk

Why would people "lose" numbers given the Number portability act, as well as the fact that long distance charges don't really exist any longer. I realize this is slightly off-topic, but your claims don't ring true to me, and I'm hoping you

I tried to do this with my Mifi-only plan (grandfatherd 3G unlimited for $60) with VZW and an external battery (1800mAh w/ correct adapter), and it worked well on occasion, But, for the 80% of the time the ping-times (~150ms) made it untena

I'm curious if you looked at Oneswarm[1], as it's built on the azureus platform (i.e. java) and utilizes PKI for authentication. It's not exactly lightweight, but I have setup ~30 friends, that I know and trust, on it in one tightly secure

I will be at the wynkoop brewery in denver with a black hooded sweatshirt on May 14 b/w 4 and 6pm (playing pool upstairs), and it would be helpful if you could tell me where i went wrong in anything i wrote.

Simply down-voting without an argument doesn't strengthen your position. It makes you seem without argument.

by 18pfsmt 15y ago
All I see is down votes. Does anyone have logic to explain the reasoning or does only the fact that you disagree count? This is not what I've come to believe the HN community is about. P.S. The max neg number I have is -2 since you can't se

That's what I thought, minimal interest on HN. 8 points? Only unhealthy people care, and they clearly have no arguments or they would make them, since it is easy to do here on this forum. EDIT: Nice rebuttal: down vote. You are part of the

If you are trying to be part of the HN community and add value, why can't you state your reasons for disagreement?

Just find a way to abstract all the nonsense. I'd be happy to help you to get test locks ( I have contacts at schlage and Assa Abloy). I don't want to bother you by email w/o permission, however.

I'm sorry to laugh, but that is truly funny. I've never registered out of fear of that exact scenario. I hope you can get thse folks out of your hair :)

I truly appreciate your response, and I realize it is quite common. However, you'll have to forgive me if I consider you "needy" because I come from the minimalist mindset. I once broke up with a girl I thought I might marry because she tur

I didn't mean it like that, sorry if I offended you, but I assumed (perhaps incorrectly) that many of the HN community don't have any family to worry about because to be an entrepreneur and a family man, to me, sounds impossible. I made a d

So, just to be clear: ISO 14443 is the RFID standard from which the NFC standard, ISO 18092, is basically derived. There are very minor differences. EDIT: The hope with NFC is that the phone can become a passive (non-power requiring) tag th

Austrian RFID (ISO 14443) company Legic has had a deal with Schlage for a while. And Swedish lock company Assa Abloy ($B conglomerate) also owns HID (and its numerous subsidiaries), which pretty much dominates RFID-based access control, and

You can download the documents directly from scribd or dockstok (sp?). Most of us just want to read them w/o DLing the whole frickin file. Do you have any counter points to actually refute the claims in the post? I'd be interested to here a

I simply disagree. I believe that good companies will head in this direction of transparency. We all know that all humans have faults, and acknowledging them upfront goes a long way with some like myself. TBH, you sound like my 75 yr old fa

Consumer focused companies are barely ever valued correctly, and it is the reason to invest in mature stocks with predictable incomes. Consumers are simply too finicky, and revenue is just too erratic. Today, I bought tech cominco(TCK), and

Does anyone know if this is device specific or model specific? It would be nice if ifixit, or anyone, added the part number for WD Caviar Blue drive as they vary in price from $33-80 on Newegg.

I imagine the concern on Canonical's part is that they will field a significant part of the support flood from new users. Of course, the OEM/ ODM will probably get the bulk of support traffic (with some falling on the retailer), the "pilot"

It's not too late, depending on your interest. Maybe something related to Taurine (the active ingredient in RedBull)?

Very cool, nice work. It would be interesting if you could do this with legislation, both proposed and passed. You'd probably have to add/ modify relevancy factors but it could be helpful to not have to read legalese and still get the gist
