Working on my awesome blogging software. Here's the gorgeous coming soon page: http://www.heyreverie.com . Email me if you're frustrated with Wordpress, Tumblr, Posterous, etc. and I'd love to have you test my site before I make it public.

Are the talks really interesting? Can someone point them out to me because I can't find any that seem good.

I think you should ask yourself if you really need funding in the first place.

Yes, I think more openness leads to better lives as Paul Buchheit opined recently. http://paulbuchheit.blogspot.com/2009/11/open-as-in-water-fl...

Exactly! That a blogging service doesn't let you insert images into a post using the web UI boggles my mind.

I'm writing a new blogging platform that is definitely much simpler than Blogger, Posterous or Tumblr. I'm hoping to get my first iteration out by the end of the week (yay for Thanksgiving break!) and will post it on Hacker News. But I co

That is a Stack Overflow clone for designers. Stack Overflow differs considerably from Hacker News.

Awesome, the philosophy one or the designer one or both?

Let's start one! On a related note, is anyone interesting in starting a HN for philosophy/politics/sociology?

Steve Jobs. (1) He has amazing taste. (2) He did it twice.

I propose a ban on such posts in the future. HN is becoming Reddit. If you really want to point out all the cool stuff in Google Search, create a list and submit that list.

Hacker News Guidelines : Please don't use uppercase for emphasis. If you want to emphasize a word or phrase, put asterisks around it and it will get italicized.

How long will the application be open? (This might sound like a redundant question but I was going to ask some friends to apply that I can't contact immediately)

"If I replace population and diversity of India with US, I don't think even US can survive." On what logical basis can you make such a claim? What do you mean by "survive"?

Great! Once we figure out how to handle authorization (suggestions?), I'll email you. :P

Thanks, it would be awesome to integrate this with Fluther. But there's still a lot of work to make this work especially on the authorization front. Let me know if you have any thoughts on that. And would you be willing to send Fluther noti

I'm the author of Silent Diving Seagulls and I just wanted to say something that I didn't include in the blogpost. I know, some of you probably think that instant Growl-like notifications are really distracting. I completely agree. Personal

One suggestion I have is to reduce the number of links on the frontpage to say 15 instead of 30 until there's a little more traffic on the site. On the whole, great effort! Look forward to participating.

High performance in math competitions is simply a result of a lot of training. There are only so many different kinds of problems and only so many different techniques that can be employed to solve such problems (the kind that come out in o

I wonder why Posterous keeps spending time on little features like this instead of writing a good plugin system.

After watching his video on YouTube where he says he wrote it "20 twenty years when I was in college", I think he wrote it when he was a student but now, he is a professor. I agree that the writing style seems odd.

I just graduated from a high school in Singapore and I'm heading to Stanford this fall. And I think the Singapore education system is extremely overrated. I felt like I learned nothing in high school. Of course, the math problems might be
