   Mobile developers: is there a need for this? Are automated testing tools for emulators not good enough? Fascinated by this, but a bit confused about how practical its uses are. Very cool in any case.

   Your point is valid, and while I agree there is not strong enough evidence for a causal connection, I think the idea is interesting. My mother has painted Impressionist-style oil paintings my whole life, and taught painting classes. In her

   Love this. Very cool project, even if, as pointed out already in this thread, it was emulated from the Leeds 13's own fake trip. Also fascinating how hostile some of the commenters are here. The project explores the illusion social m

   Wow, very powerful article. I agree that our prison system is America's biggest moral wrong, and I hope that history books in 50 years write about how sad and unjust it is in our time. That said, does anyone know what proposed solution

   I WANT TO BELIEVE But seriously, this sounds like an awesome project. As far as I know, there are still no great multiplayer-DAW setups. Would be incredible, but definitely a big challenge - working alone in a DAW uses serious CPU cycles,

   I think you need to stop reading things like this as "demonizing half of humanity." You being offended by an article like this is actually part of the problem, it results in silencing articles like this because some men don'

   There's this narrative that Apple's lack of design choice has helped them, by keeping things consistent. White headphones were, for a while, almost exclusively iPod earbuds. If you saw someone rocking a white headphone cable, yo

   I see your distinction between the two, and agree that the restaurant app clearly hurts the restaurants. But the parking app hurts every other driver in the city who doesn't take part. I really don't see how using auctions for e

   I don't know - there's been times when I see something cool, beautiful, weird etc and would like to share it, but don't want to share it with people I actually know. Sort of like how a lot of people use Tumblr vs Instagram -

    Ants behave similarly. If Steven Johnson's book Emergence, he writes that ant colonies have three "landmarks" - the queen, the dead ants, and a "trash pile" - husks and leftovers from food and foraging. The queen

    I remember somebody telling me this (that they weren't a "real" startup, and owned by the company behind Match), and then they came to my school to talk about their company - and spun it so seriously that I assumed the guy te

    I think you need more whitespace on your website. Even the very top banner looks cluttered, with the logo super close to the name, and both right above the buttons, and all of it right above the image. No space to breathe, especially when

    Cool article! I've understood the difference between additive and subtractive for a while, but hadn't thought about the discrepancy between RYB and CMY. I also recommend watching this short video on the origin of ROYGBIV, and why

    Great advice. I am currently in my second summer internship with a great startup. Last summer, I started with near-0 web experience, and built an internal web app that is still used constantly by our sales team. The metrics it provides ha

    I respectfully disagree. You may feel like you can't help anymore than you have, but that doesn't give you the right to tell other people to be quiet.

    And if an artist releases instrumental or a capella versions of their track, you can usually use this to get the other. Only works if they're exactly the same as the original of course.

    Would you consider internet porn a reasonable comparison to Soylent, as a low-effort alternative to sex for some people?

    by clay_to_n 12y ago

    I totally agree with this sentiment (love cooking), but I still see the usefulness of Soylent. Many people just aren't very into food, and would benefit from having an (occasional) simple and healthy alternative. Of college friends I

    I'm building a book-reader app using the Spritz API. I started this at LAHacks with help from Spritz developers, but I've decided to keep working on it and try to get it in the App Store. Main view when paused: http://

    This was good! Starts out with very basic programming stuff, but overall gives you a nice introduction to what ChucK can do.

    I agree. Having a 40 minute daily BART commute was really productive for me, even if it's that short.
