I'm going to have to disagree with your disagreement. If you want to get into startups with enterprise customers, then maybe palantir is the right choice, but otherwise you'd learn a lot more about customer acquisition at facebook since the

if it were somehow deemed illegal, i'm sure github would get a subpoena requesting a list of everyone who downloaded firesheep... and then everyone on HN would be looking for a lawyer.

Ew! This looks worse than the spammy popup ads of the web 1.0 era. Now they annoy you with "BUY THIS NOW!!" inside flash games. How can you put relevant product content in flash games when the game itself doesn't have product context to

there are some things the chrome/webkit debugger still lacks compared to firebug though. I like how firebug always shows a stack trace when there are errors during runtime. In chrome/webkit, you just get a little red x in the console with

I've already used it for my admin app as well, and in the process submitted some patches to backbone as well. It's quite nice how unobtrusive it is. I wrote a small jquery plugin that converts a form & table into fully functional crud

Well it doesn't come with Windows 7 by default either. It's just one of those things that everyone has to install whenever they reinstall windows. I also don't believe it comes with snow leopard either -- maybe the only change was remove

Even though vmware fusion came on CD for the mac, it was already outdated by the time I bought it. I downloaded a 200mb full install from vmware. In the age of internet, software CDs are always out of date.

if ffmpeg supports it, wouldn't mplayer be able to play it?

I think he means that it is up to the users to decide how to sync their android device with whatever future devices they'll own. With the iPhone, you'll just buy the next generation device and your settings will easily migrate over. With

Why not just collect their credit card, but don't bill them initially so that the barrier to entry is low, then notify that they'll be charged at the end of the month. If they're pleased with the service, they'll probably ignore the email.

I think it's a great idea, but I'm guessing pg might not want to do the work involving billing, even if it's really easy.

well, I think the real tech isn't the concentrator but the membrane that converts heat to electricity by forcing ions through a proton-exchange membrane.

Does foursquare publish male/female ratio user base stats? Based on the people I know, it seems like only males use apps like foursquare.

Maybe you can have people donate their junk domains that they bought out of whim. I'm sure every HN reader probably have a few dozen domains that they let expire every year.

Does trim work over raid-1? I was under the impression that trim isn't supported in raid at all yet.

Comet has worked since the old netscape days, it just wasn't called "comet" back then. Long polling works fine in IE6.

you never load a large program like gimp? The speed difference is huge when loading up gimp on a rpm drive vs ssd. It's also pretty big when doing something like a "select count(*)" over a huge un-indexed table.

It would probably make sense to do this as a service though. I'm guessing people probably listen to similar tunes, so it would be significantly cheaper if you could pool 10 people's music and only store 1 copy of every song.

FYI, Dojo'ers are coffee snobs. We buy green coffee and roast it. We have a good selection of different single-origin beans in our kitchen. We also have 24/7 access!

when facebook changed user profile pages to be more stream-centric than app-centric, developers complained too, and subsequently destroyed the user base for a few apps that relied on user profile canvas presence. However, I think the chang

I don't really consider the iframe-style as a valid integration point though. You could technically hide anything inside an iframe. The iframe makes it significantly harder to integrate because all your javascript will essentially need to

Yes, but if you're targeting mobile devices, you can load them a different set of javascript that would be lighter load on the network. I think it's kind of pointless to use something like Unobtrusive Javascript support because if you're o

Would sproutcore still play nice in a development cycle if I only wanted to use it for a nice shopping cart implementation, but use adhoc javascript everywhere else on a website? The last time I looked at it, it seemed to only excel if you

You can always take it down and re-upload under a different name and you'll be on the "new" page for a short amount of time again.

It only has that max if you happen to have a sata 3 compatible host, otherwise you'll be downgraded back to sata 2 and your speed will be comparable to everyone else.

Seems like it would be possible to have really big events outdoors somewhere given the nice bay area weather. The great outdoors would easily be able to accomodate a few hundred limited only by the power of your microphone sound system.

That format comes from smalltalk. Ruby inherits lots of their ideology from smalltalk so it's no surprise to see them adopt their class browser either. However, I'm not sure if class browsers can be considered "documentation".
