   Sucks that HN has been bundled in with the other sites SEO and social jerks target and manipulate.

    #1 hate is I can't open images or pages in new tabs, if I tap and hold on the outer thumb I just get the option to save that thumb, if I tap and hold on the link in the preview I get nothing at all. That makes browsing multiple images pain

    Every attempt I've seen to turn something into a special mobile version has failed horribly. Google Images is absolute, pure shit, I literally get up and find my laptop when I have to use Images because they've made it so horrible to use.

    They probably did to protect themselves... instagram was growing like crazy, last thing FB needs is another giant network to share people with.

    People around here are particularly in love with themselves and like to remind themselves and each other that by filling out the HN registration form they are smarter, leaner, meaner, faster, hackers, entrepreuners, bears, beets, battlestar

    This is important for .NET websites as well - if you don't have enough traffic to guarantee your site stays alive you should set something up so force it to, that first pageview can take orders of magnitude longer than normal.

    At it's guts it's some kind of .NET project, you could reference the project and put an aspx interface straight over the existing classes. The reason the online testing would be good is it's so easy for html minification to break stuff, but

    It would be really cool if I could plug some URLs in and then see how well it works / make sure it doesn't screw anything up. That would be a lot more convenient.

    This is awesome. It doesn't appear to require Windows though: Amazon CloudFront, Elastic MapReduce, ElastiCache, Route 53, S3, EC2, SQS, Simple EDI, VPC, AWS Data Transfer, SNS, DynamoDB, RDS, SES, AWS Elastic Beanstalk, SimpleDB, and Simp

    I read this earlier from some other story that was on HN, it was a little corny how they played it up for the tech crowd all things considered but it was a great read.

    Opera on Android (and maybe iOS) has this awesome feature where if links are close together it will zoom in so you can select the right one.

    I guess it depends on the nature of the data ... if it can be used against me / my users then I'd call the FBI and start sending apologies. I wouldn't bother emailing the bad person in any case.

    TFA is about what the textbook companies are claiming... and they are claiming "photographic paraphrasing". For the Dell analogy to be correct they'd have to be making these: http://www.zdnet.com/blog/apple/fake-airbook-is-the-best-mac..

    Is Dell assembling them in the same way as the macbook in a case that was a clone of the macbook ... aka a counterfeit macbook? That's what Boundless sound like they're doing.
