This tool looks really great. I'm going to try it out to see if the actual experience of drawing wireframes is as easy as it looks in the sample videos. I usually do wireframes for websites I build on paper, which doesn't expose t

I've used many of the top VPS providers: Slicehost, Rackspace, Linode, Digital Ocean and AWS. I don't think anyone could beat Amazon at making the process of provisioning a fresh server instance more complex. Granted, this is from

T-Mobile includes the personal hotspot at no extra charge. I just switched from AT&T too and have been really happy so far. My phone only gets Edge speeds right now, only because they haven't "reframed" their cell towers yet. (not exact

It's a cool idea. I'm sure some would be tempted to capture and steal the drones as they made delivery—they can't be cheap. It will become the modern day equivalent of stealing a plastic milk cart—only you won't be building ugly book shelve

Some quick feedback after trying the demo: 1. Your www.happyhealth.me worked, but leaving off the www (happyhealth.me) didn't. Need to add a DNS record so both work. (be sure to redirect users to one or the other so your analytics are consi

Pretty neat. I can see this being a huge time-saver. Whenever I have to fill out these kinds of forms, I always wish there were a central API that doctors / dentists / etc. could pull my information from. I also think that it's silly to wri

I appreciate you making this and have downloaded a copy to learn from. While I usually develop websites using Rails, more and more of my clients are asking about WordPress. I cringe a little each time (yes, I'm one of the ones who would rat

Ha ha... I'm not your typical "Oh my heck" Utahn though—I do drop the hard swears when appropriate, just not online.

Not sure about 1Gbps speeds—that always seemed so out of reach to me, I never paid attention. Their normal residential speed was said to be about $70 / month for 50Mbps up and down.

If they (Google) are purchasing the whole iProvo network, then I would think they could also undo the service contracts so you could sign up for their normal services? Or, maybe you mean that you have a contract to work on the network—like

Holy cow that's great! I sure hope that means they can easily expand to Salt Lake City (about 50 miles North of there—and where I am) after building the infrastructure there. There is already a fiber ISP in the area called Utopia who are in

I use Teamviewer all the time and find it very useful. I need to spend a little time to look at how the connections are made though—I'm not confident that it's secure since you have to enter an ID and password that are (I'm assuming) authen

I'm trying this out now and am really enjoying it. I work at home and usually just have my noise canceling headphones on with no music playing, so having the ambient coffee shop sounds plus music is a nice change. So far, I'm still able to

Just watched your getting started video and am really excited to try it out. Seems super clean and easy to get things done with. Installing now.

rsync -q I consider HTML email to be a better way to communicate than plain text emails: It's visual—therefore much quicker to grab our attention. If we don't stop for that first split second to gander further, then the whole message is los

Just to add my voice to the thread above—I also thought it was odd to get a plain-jane invite email. The overall idea of the app is really enticing to me though because I really hate coding up emails using the old-school tables, font-face,

Just FYI, I too would view Glacier support as something worth a normal upgrade fee. I am using Arq more as a long-term back-it-up-and-forget-about-it storage solution anyway, so it seems like a natural direction to go for a user like me (sa

In my humble opinion, the design work is incredible. Not at all busy—clean, professional looking and well made.

You can also add a QuickLook directory to your own ~/Library if you are into keeping stuff separated.

Whenever I see the "unknown or expired link" error, it serves as a reminder that I just spent too much time browsing HN, again. That said, the error sure is annoying so I just installed this. Thanks for making it.

I am just now today experiencing this exact thing for the first time! The so-called "addiction" is strong too—I just did a long run on Sunday and am sore and tired and am already looking forward to my next run. I'm a new runner, and thinkin

Thank you... that does indeed work. The updates.textmate.org site is certainly non-responsive.

Except we haven't even seen TM2 yet. It could be a more svelte, nematodeine, feature-less slice of software. Just because it's taken half an eon for even the beta announcement to come to fruition doesn't mean it's a bloat-ware type scenario

I have tried using a lot of other text editors over the past year or so—trying to find a viable replacement for TextMate. Each time someone in HN mentions Sublime or MacVim or new hotness text editor X, I give it a shot, use it for a couple
