You should have listed all those products...another way to promote! Great to hear stories like this.

I was a bit shocked to see this behavior at first and spent some time debugging it thinking it could be an issue on my side. It turned out not. It's no big deal but could bring doubts on consumer's mind if they intentionally type wrong CVC

Stripe is pretty cool. We've been using it on http://www.IslamicEventFinder.com and was the best library experience to integrate. A few things we noticed, the CVC check is not as impressive, it charges the card even if the CVC is not corr

www.IslamicEventFinder.com - For the past few months I've spent my nights and a portion of my weekends to build what I think is a decent website that tries to unify all Islamic events into one central website and make it easy for the Muslim

To me screen resolution matters...with a higher resolution you can accommodate more into the screen real estate and don't have to switch things around. I used a super high resolution 15.4" laptop at work once and even having 2 dual 24" moni

The new Gmail interface itself is ugly and then you add this to it...it's all gray everywhere and kind of hard to make distinctions. Don't even talk about using this new Gmail theme in lower screen size laptops...it's looks absolutely ugly.

If it's a shared computer then I'd have a root folder for each family member and specifics go underneath those root folders. On my personal computer I have folders for each major activity like work, side-projects etc. and files are grouped

I still don't know why but I get more things done using my MacBook for few hours in the evening than with a Windows machine the whole daytime...again, don't ask me why, but that's the reality and I'm happy for that.

What will iOS be by 2015? When we are not able to predict what comes after iOS 5 how can IDC predict/project an arbitrary conclusion? Just doesn't make any sense!

I use Evernote for all my note taking purposes. It's one central hub to dump everything I can imagine. It's generous in it's search feature as well as platform availability (there is an Evernote app for it). Even though a lot can be improve

Even though I get things done late night I wanted to get up early and get to work early. The only for it to work is if I get to bed early which I struggle to. Would be nice if there is a simple way to consistently get to sleep early.

Mixergy, of course, and I sometimes listen to TechZing as well.

If it can ever work, I tried to install on a 64-bit machine and it consistently failed no matter what I did...then finally what I did?...gave up! Will wait for IE10, if it can install at least :)

Sorry, I should have been a bit more clear with my question, I wanted to do this programatically. I can find the latitude/longitude based on US zipcodes but was wondering what would be the easiest and best way to find the same for internati

That's pretty nice...would be certainly helpful if it can allow us to use the different font sizes so we can test a lot more on one shot.

I think what @anujkk meant was not to get distracted with side projects, learning projects etc. I think you can spend a little time on learning projects and that justifies the ROI in terms of time but I think he is primarily talking about t

Keep in mind that the concept of Groupon not just need a group of people to tip the deal but also would need a "sustained effort" of a group of a people behind the scenes to get the interestingness of Groupon going. If you think about it, i

The only thing I like about this is the code pane as it renders code decent enough. Everything else is a bit unfinished work it looks like. Time to change my Dropbox password then!

Can't agree with you enough! Do the developers of Textmate ever listen to these demands?

I think the only requirement is that you can not work for the company that you own on H1B visa. If you think what's the point of creating a startup for which you can not feed your blood and sweat to grow it...go figure...

Will do it very soon. I know Show HN is very effective and gets a lot more contextual feedback than just visitors.

At least acknowledging if they've got the email or not would go a long way from the one who sent that email and eagerly waiting for a response (positive or negative). But...
