This is very likely true today. But things will evolve. There are many variables to consider: - Competition between shops - product brand and quality - proximity to clients (consider raise of petrol price) - associate shop brand with produ

One can exchange items, but not sell them. There is no money account in TF2. So I don't see any relation with a real life economy.

I looked at it. It's design process is not completed. One strong negative point is that it enforces big endian integer encoding. Another one is that it doesn't use the value space of tags as efficiently as message pack. I would use the un

How do you remember it ? What do you do if you need to login from another computer ? This doesn't work on my windows computer. If we store this random password in a local pasword storage, how much different is that from using asymetric key

Bitcoin is like money, I mean real money, so there is nothing new and better with it. The problem with money is how the bankers corrupted it for their own profit. Banks created virtual money with credits and this speculation bubble is now e

While interesting, I don't think we can consider the conclusion as the final word on it. There are many other variables to take in account. The programmer's expertise is an important one and it is difficult to take in account. Static typing

I'm curious how much effort it needed. The images where beautiful and professional. Excellent work. The voice was lacking some testosterone, but it's a detail. I'm sorry about the critics on the technical aspect of your app. There are inde

So the odds are that you will fail soon or later with the last objective you won't be able to reach. How would that feel ?

I noticed it too, but my last impression was that it is good to be like that. I see it as an attempt to cut the link between the new word dropbox as a brand and the two words drop and box. Drop has a negative conotation.

Why is the shift direction the inverse of C ? Is this an error ? It would be a pretty big mistake.

My feeling is that they don't enjoy programming or like the team. It is unlikely you'll be able to change this.

86 people upvoted the question and 5 votes is all it takes to close the question ? So 5 people hold the truth on the validity an pertinence of a question ? How many people does it take to undesrstand that this moderation system is broken ?

This good. But how do you handle it when designing a protocol and a data encoding ? You can't iterate.

Markdown has a lot of shortcoming because it maps to basic html. i.e. It ignores starting numbers and numbering gaps. Markdown is not a standardize encoding. Many markdown editors don't support tables for instance. Finally, as an editor, it

It is the copy operation from inside the editor text area that doesn't work. If you copy text in another place, it gets stored in the clipboard and the past operation works as expected. If you copy text selected in the editor text area, the

Mail is broken in many ways. Because there is no authentication and thus forged from addresses, error messages can't be returned. Relays are allowed to modify mails which invalidates hashes and signatures. Attached and included documents ar

I share this opinion and I'm surprized so few HN readers have considered this possibility. It could make sense since the chinise could use the chip for themselves.

What is your business model ? I'm not sure I understood what you do. What I know is that people like to be part of the show or feel like so. Add a like button and give feedback on the number of time a music is played. Open it to submission.

I have the impression you did it the wrong way. It is very difficult to create a product and push it somehow into the throat of people. It's much easier to other way round. Find what people want and then build the business. Cull.tv had prob
