I've mentioned it before, but Pandoc is a nice workaround; it can convert Markdown (and a few other input languages) into LaTeX. It comes with a shortcut for taking Markdown and generating a PDF out of it via LaTeX. http://johnmacfarlane.n

I use Pandoc to write most of my assignments in Markdown with a bit of LaTeX, and then convert them to a PDF via LaTeX. It makes doing small papers really quick and easy. http://johnmacfarlane.net/pandoc/

This is why I think the author supports the idea of giving the power to share videos to everyone, rather than the current model of having someone else share your videos for you once you upload them. You certainly can afford to know that the

I submitted this mainly because of the quality of the streaming flash. I've seen many people support Silverlight for its great quality. I think this video shows that Flash can do nearly as good as Silverlight. I've yet to see anyone do stre

Kudos to a great use of the Grooveshark API. I once wanted to use their API in a class project where we had to make a web mashup. It took until 2 days before our deadline to finally get access; and we had since moved on. Since then I've bee

If you're targeting web designers without programming skills, you may do well mentioning something to that effect on the home page. My first thought when looking at it was that it was for people who have never made a website. Also, the "tha

I just recently started working with FlashPunk ( http://flashpunk.net/ ), a really cool and simple library for game development using AS3 and Flex. Game development in Flash isn't going away for a LONG time, methinks.

1. I started with a little game by the name of ZZT by Tim Sweeney and Epic Megagames (who would go on to become Epic and create the Unreal Engine). ZZT used ASCII characters as graphics and was an engine on which to run games. It came with

If it's Head First Design Patterns, then yes. :P In all seriousness, I highly recommend the Head First series of books. They read so much smoother than other large reference/learning books. As for Design Patterns, the value in that was not

Forgive me if I'm overlooking some heavy sarcasm, but I'm genuinely surprised. I would have thought more people would have objected to the stereotypes and generalizations that plague this article. I don't know the writer's background, so I

1. Public/private key authentication is, as of 2009, still not something the mainstream internet user can figure out to do easily. I'd guess most don't even know it exists. 2. I can also delete a lifetime of mail in 10 seconds. The steps re

I'm curious: Is it really worth it to learn vim for the productivity? I've used vim as far as simple search, visual mode, and copy/paste. One of the things I've noticed when attempting to learn more vim is that when using other editors I us

I don't see this as an actual suggestion for Google as much as a really cool version; especially since the source is offered. (I'm tweaking it and making it my homepage, now. :D) Great job!

I feel like attempts to publicly aggregate stuff will just result in more clutter. Like TomOfTTB, I come to Hacker News for Hacker News. I'm not smart enough to think up a good solution, but I think that having the aggregation on the client
