Thanks for the feedback! Themes are coming up. I'm gonna have a handful of color palets and typographic themes to pick from. Took note of everything else. Will be working hard on making the app better in updates!

They are, to a small extent. They look like plain text, but if an item wraps across lines, the indent level is preserved. Note: blockquotes and code blocks should do the same thing, but it hasn't been implemented yet.

The most significant design decision (and something that I think is a major feature over Emdee and Marked (mentioned in another comment) is that there is no distinction between preview and editing modes / views. Your code is stylized as the

Woah, this made front-page! I realize the price is kind of prohibitive to just check out. I wish the App Store would let me give a massive discount coupon for HN readers. Turns out that for the niche market I'm targeting, this is just about

You still can. I've had friends review my apps even though I gave them all promo codes. And for the record, I don't think it's unethical to ask a few friends for a favor. It'd actually recommend as a marketing strategy to hand out as many p

Interesting how little fact-checking newspaper do these days, before making crazy and false claims such as this. http://blogs.wsj.com/venturecapital/2011/01/10/has-a-company... Looks like Twitter did definitely not break the record here.

Would be very interested to see the rest of the story. I've always had a lingering interest to bootstrap a trading algorithm. It doesn't even have to be HFT.

I have very mixed feelings about this column. On the one hand, Paul Carr is a brilliant writer and I'm a huge fan of his work. I also agree with him on a lot of his argument. On the other hand, I respect Paul Graham a lot more than I do Mic

Have you considered a drastic move to SF, NYC, Boston, or another startup hotspot? Having no money in Michigan is no better than having no money in a more expensive city, so cost of living shouldn't even be a factor here. Also, don't limit

Ah, yes, because if you don't want to take the time to learn objective C, you're a crappy developer? Is that right? I never said anything like that—however, since we're on the subject, I will say that if you're an iPhone developer [1] and

Yes. The Android NDK lets you write and use code in C / C++: http://developer.android.com/sdk/ndk/index.html

The traditional way of doing that has been to write a low-level C library with the core functionality, and write a native app for each platform that leverages the library. This is how the best cross-platform apps are made. I can see a brigh

Great, we now have another way of making crappy iPhone apps using JavaScript. I can't speak as to the other platforms, but what the iPhone needs is less low-quality apps, not more. Accessibility is not always a good thing. Additionally, t

True, that's actually quite a tricky bug. However, that's also a flaw in Cocoa, I think. NSOrderedSame should not evaluate to a falsy value. Rather, the enum should start at 1.

I think this is mostly a workaround for a huge flaw in most languages—especially one as dynamic as ruby. Nil should accept any method and return nil. This is the pattern that Objective-C embraces, and it works very well. You can chain metho

I can't respect any chart that describes Java as an evolution and improvement of Objective-C.

This is why you don't stake the well-being of your company on the good intentions of another's.

Yeah, I've done that before. It's not too bad, but there's still a lot of boilerplate that could be made away with.

You're right… let me rephrase. The only significant company.

I'm thinking about the fact that neither JavaScript on V8, nor Cocoa are equipped with HTTP networking. So the framework supplies that part. A big part of node, when used for a web app, is that it supplies an HTTP server. Same with this.

Yes, that's essentially what WebObjects was. However, WebObjects today is a mess, and it's written in Java. Also, we have a ton of conventions today, with regards to MVC development, REST APIs, etc. that we did not have in '95. Which means

Ohhhh, yes! This sounds awesome , I've been meaning to write something like this myself. Essentially, a node.js equivalent, but for Cocoa. Of course, I'm way too lazy to add that to my work-load, but I'm very glad somebody did. Now, if onl

It's not about what 4chan does to its members—I couldn't give less of a fuck. It's about what they do to the rest of society. Things like Anonymous and LulzSec, which end up on the NYTimes frontpage, are is a direct result of places like 4c

I agree with you on two points. Firstly, you are right to make the distinction between anonymous and pseudonymous, they're two different things and you can build a reputation system and healthy community on a pseudonymous system (see HN). H
