Are you serious? You don't see how immediately assuming that he's faking a serious disability in order to avoid normal conversation and eavesdrop is a negative scenario?

Why would you immediately assume such a negative scenario?

Based off the user's profile, it's clearly San Diego.

It's closer to Levie. It's very rare for founders to be able to maintain strong control of their company through multiple funding rounds.

It's not a swipe at all. It's almost self-disparagement. They're being totally up front with "as history has shown, this could have been incredibly disastrous, but we got really lucky."

Uncomfortably close to DOXing. If there's a reason why Horvath chose to leave the names anonymous, we should respect it.

I downvoted you, as you are not actually responding to any points in the discussion (either raised by schneidmasteror d23), but you are coming across as condescending and pedantic. It's also very hard to understand your writing style.

Dangerously close to DOXing there, buddy. There's a reason why HN has handles and not real names. EDIT: Thank you, ivankirigan—much appreciate the switch to my handle.

Yep—I deleted my comment because it seemed too nitpicky and critical of your process. My worry was since your post says "This is what design looks like", and doesn't mention the rest of the design process, it could be misin

I wonder if Feather is ever going to leave beta. It's been around since pre-2009. ( http://lifehacker.com/5418251/youtube-feather-is-a-lighter+w... )

You are listing the items in the "This application WILL NOT BE ABLE TO" section. Obviously, no application gets to view your Twitter password... The actual app requests read access to your timeline and followers list.

Sorry, but do you realize that the "designer feedback" in your screenshot is beyond useless? Feedback should be descriptive, not prescriptive. "Spacing is good" and "this is clear" don't really add much, n

No, they never nixed them. Everyone has to deal with DMCA issues—Dropbox does a pretty proactive job of it ( http://www.quora.com/Dropbox/What-are-some-methods-to-evade-... )

The dramatic hyperbole drives it from being "surfacing an issue" to negative bashing. "Did anybody else spend half a minute trying to interact with the "app", then give up and close the tab, thinking it was broken b

I use the HN Enhancement Suite. It adds some good functionality as well as making the interface pretty (but not overly web 6.0-y with thin-weight helvetica and white space everywhere.) https://chrome.google.com/webstore&#x2F

How do you know that Google is not doing all this as part of the Android OS? Or any other app on your phone that requests network access? Secondly, why would you care?

This sort of negative commentary is always distasteful. Any person who's used a computer in the last twenty years would understand that the interface is not responding and try alternate input methods (like scrolling, one of the most co

I often wonder how badly my personal data set is skewed due to mis-tapping (or clicking) the downvote arrow when I'm trying to get the upvote one.

Electric shavers are awful for getting any sort of reasonable shave, which is probably why they aren't used much.

These sorts of modifications are done client-side for a reason. If I want the page to look different, I'd make it look different. Doing it server-side opens up a whole ton of security concerns... Not to mention copyright issues, etc.
