This is what stands out for me: "Live listening. While I decided to hide most of the UX I had worked on for launch due to it not being fully baked, if you're friends with someone and you see them "online" in your friends list, you can tune

I'm all for paying for good tools / libraries, but I personally wouldn't pay $190. I think a "pay what you think it's worth" system would be more effective.

This is looking very polished already. My biggest barrier to entry was having to go through the invite process for each person in my office, so I'd prefer to have a single form that you can add multiple people to, then submit once. You coul

I disagree. The reason a lot of newbies start with W3Schools is because they're the plague of Google search results. Popularity isn't everything. If it was, we'd all be promoting Nicki Minaj as the definitive source of quality music.

So my 'voter ID' is a Twitter account? This is a conspiracy by those with easy access to Twitter to silence the voices of those who can't easily obtain Twitter!

In the past week, Dustin has posted a few articles [1,2,3] that have gained a massive amount of attention here, which all try to drill home the point that we should be out there living our lives as if they're going to end tomorrow. We shoul

The same principle is applied here on HN too. You no longer see scores on comments and it seems to be working out quite nicely. I wonder if PG would ever go a step further and take them off submissions too.

"Had Apple set the public’s expectations better, we may be having a very different discussion at this point." This, for me, captures exactly why Apple deserve the backlash they've seen from this whole Maps thing (and why Tim Cook's apology

That's right. Not a single person has thought about the other 500 million. This is the beauty of the platform. No one company is responsible for solving how this applies to the masses. We get to work that out on our own. There may not be on

That's also good to hear. Now I don't need to implement it. That was my first reaction to seeing Backbone UI. I look forward to seeing what you come up with.

I thought hard about the point you raised when I was putting together my original post. I tried to think about the hero as someone standing on the same footing as condiment/drinks manufacturers, who unlike the hero, play by the rules. They

The analogy still fits. I was suggesting that they don't build apps for iPhones, Apple TVs, Macs, etc. You can't put your chicken in a KFC bucket, even though you worked out the secret recipe. You can't put your app in an iPhone, just becau

Please entertain my crazy analogous thought processes for a minute... Imagine you were eating out at KFC one night, and using taste alone, you managed to work out their secret recipe. You then decided you wanted to get into the fried chicke

I'm not upset that higher pledge tiers don't include the rewards of previous tiers. This is not always cost effective, especially when you factor in T-shirt production and whatnot. I do believe however that the higher levels should give mor

I'm already way ahead of the curve. I've started writing my scripts without semicolons and I'm getting 100% code compression using even the most rudimentary minifiers. Get with the times, already!

Well I hope he has real faith in the company and the product, rather than it being a case of "OK, guys you've had a couple of months to play around with this idea, now let me acquire you for pocket change, and get your devs working on Path,

Footnote: I don't really take issue with this being an iPhone exclusive for now. Getting to market is the most important thing, and I commend the team for making sure they got the app and the experience right in one environment, rather than

"We have nothing more to say about the move" Not publicly, anyway. Which I commend. If it was anything but amicable, there's plenty other people willing to sling mud on that guy for them.
