Perhaps, but a well-designed URL structure is helpful when one sees a deep link to the site and wants to know what they'll find. example.com/how-to-bar-the-foo-v1 docs.example.com/en/1.0/foo#bar The latter

I had to do a double-take when I read the "7 days" part, because I wasn't sure why that should be a pleasant surprise. If it were their desktop client, that kind of turnaround would be understandable. For their website? I don

I fear they'd be too concerned about the potential impact on their business.

I've had streaming issues with both Netflix and Youtube while using Verizon FiOS in the past. I then connected to my University's VPN and instantly enjoyed smooth-as-butter streaming on both sites. There's a good chance you&#

Agreed with your sentiment, but I think a plugin approach (many exist) is better than a browser fork. The fork could surely convert some users (and developers), but that just means duplication of development efforts between the fork and (fo

These posts are equivalent to email drafts and I would hope they would be as private. On an ad-supported, web-based service? Why? If they have an algorithm that parses my drafts and uses the gathered information to make more money to pay

I don't understand why this surprises people. Facebook is in the business of collecting every bit of information it can about every one if its users. I think its reasonable to assume that every click, scroll, and keypress is being capt

Can't quite tell whether the horrendous load time on this link is the HN effect or part of the design. Probably the latter.

Thanks for the blitz.io reference. I've been looking for a tool to load-test some personal projects, and others I found didn't have a satisfactory free tier.

Agreed. And considering the low probability of such a breach, my next assumption was some password storage service being breached. The real story: Personal computers were infected, passwords were keylogged. yawn

That waives legal responsibility, but I fail to see how it affects ethics/morals. The ethical implications of an action are determined by the community/profession, so if the community agrees that this was unethical, it was.

Wow, indeed. Hopefully that's a bug and not that way by design.

!ddg is quite a few extra keystrokes though. Isn't it easier to just keep a shortcut key bound to that search? For example, I have 'g' bound for Google. The result: "blah blah" -> Google: blah blah "b

And if you don't, you can crack the phone open and look at (much of) the wiring yourself. This is of course a lot harder with modern multi-layer PCBs, but I'd imagine still not impossible. You can at the very least take a multimet

I don't know where, but it sounds fairly simple to make: cut the connector off from an old headset, and solder all of the wires in it together. One of the wires (the uninsulated one) in there is ground, the other three are signal.
