A lawyer probably isn't worth the time or money to them. I know how they feel. We constantly have people ripping off our website and design work. Sometimes the best method is just to call them out on it and honestly, they deserve to be publ

I love how simple the photo uploader is. I'm currently working on a new upload system for my site, does anyone know how compatible a drag and drop system that automatically shows the image like that would be? Does it work in all browsers? I

We use the same feature on livechatinc.com and it works great. Olark has done a great job but I must say livechatinc wins my vote because you can see what people are typing before they hit "send" - its a big help in responding faster to que

I bought one the day they came out, I really just needed a faster machine with more hard drive space. I currently use an AIR with 120gb SSD and I have to constantly keep deleting files to free HD space. The 4GB of ram I have also wasn't cut

agreed. I thought this article was a joke or something in response to the new apple products. Looking at their website design, never mind product design just hurts my eyes now.

Agreed. I think that is the strongest point about designing a logo. I just finished creating a new one and having an "icon" is incredibly helpful. Favicons, iphone apps, social media pages, etc.. can all be branded much easier.

unfortunately yes, probably not so many people in tech industries but I have definitely seen it done.

Its funny how defensive HN readers are. I love HN and its content but I'm just wondering why there isnt a forgot password link? Seriously...?

That is one fancy log in page...not even a "forgot password" link.

I would just be worried about how they lock us out, what if the block both of our IP's and then the hacker manages to change his IP and can now get in and has an advantage over the legitimate account holder.

Pretty intense hack... I think Google gives you the option of setting up a recovery phone to receive voice or SMS messages. It looks like SMS may be more secure. It also sounds like he didn't have 2 factor setup on his personal gmail accoun

I love wordpress and using it for a CMS. I never thought it needed to be simpler, I always thought that was one thing they did really well... But maybe thats just because I've been using it for many years now.

Interesting, but I personally don't see a need for it. If I haven't talked to one of my contacts in a while its most likely because they have nothing to offer me and I dont need to...Or maybe you just need a better sales page to pitch the b

I'd also be careful to avoid vanity metrics. I think your time is better spent building a dashboard for actionable metrics. A map of all of your api calls might look cool but what are you going to do with that? I'm more interested in averag

me too... I had absolutely no idea what it is. It's funny to think that people can build a site and forget to check for things like that.

Hopefully this means that all cable companies will die soon... Ok maybe that is a bit too hopeful. But I've been looking for ways to drop my TV bill recently (directv) I pay $90 a month to watch maybe 3 channels once or twice a week. I can'

Right, but who is to say that the FBI would release that information into the wrong hands? If that is the case then it sounds like the problem is with the way confidential information is handled by our intelligence agencies.

Thanks. I'll look it over.

I agree... In one case you're talking about killing someone and taking their organs to give to others and in the other we're talking about disrupting someones email usage to prevent bomb detonation. Can we see the difference here? I still d

Could be. I'm curious to hear why my comment was down voted though, regardless of whether there was information on the server or not. It seems a lot of people are always screaming "privacy!" and when I mention I'm willing to give up some pr

by BryanB55 14y ago
I pretty much agree, they talked about "innocent peoples privacy" but if they are truly innocent then it shouldn't matter if the FBI sees their information. If my data were on that server and I was doing nothing wrong I really don't think I

I've always found this an interesting discussion and I'm not really sure how I feel about it. It seems that most people look down on the CEO's as being greedy but I say if the company is in good health and not laying off employees then good

I do the same thing, prime is great. One thing that does make me feel a bit guilty about it though is the amount of packaging wasted when I'm constantly ordering all of these things from Amazon. I usually have a couple boxes stacked up ever

Yea, I wouldn't say this is evil, it actually solves a lot of the problems being discussed here with people not wanting to go through the hassle of a signup process without even knowing what they are getting into. With your example they are

Exactly. I don't know why I've been hearing this so much lately. I've been researching about learning to use 3D software (3dsmax) and I get the same responses that I hear about learning to code: "oh it is very difficult and it will takes at

I've been hearing this argument a lot lately. Are you suggesting that if I wanted to learn to code it would take me decades to be able to build anything of value? To me learning to code is just like learning any other skill. Sure you wont b

That's what I'm wondering too, I don't see how this would work on a normal website since a normal website probably wouldn't be whitelisted by Google like AWS is... What am I missing here?
