Same here. I'm curious if maybe some of the early manufacturing runs perhaps had weaker magnets?

It is mocking all of the startups with splash pages trying to promote their prelaunch product with absolutely nothing to show about the product or even a description of what it actually is.

I'm apprehensive about your product because of the grey background. Studies have shown that blue is very calming and perhaps you should add some more of it. http://www.precisionintermedia.com/color.html Also how do I share your launch pro

I dislike the term frontend engineer or frontend anything because people use it to mean a whole range of things between JavaScript programmer, web designer, and HTML/CSS scripter. And while some people possess all three of those very differ

How is Pinterest not also fighting a losing game? I can see how it's harder for Github to stay up with competitors because their target market is more savvy and often tries out new tools. But doesn't Pinterest also suffer the risk of some n

As a Ruby/JavaScript developer I find it very bizarre that you don't know anyone that has used git professionally. Pretty much everyone I know uses it professionally and I'm a bit taken aback when someone hasn't even tried it.

There are real health concerns about changing the ph by adding ammonia as well as the actual safety of pink slime bacteria wise. The meat they use for it was thrown away before the ammonia process because it often comes from the edges of th

I really don't think there is a place for traditional encyclopedias anymore, digital or hardcopy. Of course we still want and need curated collections of information. But I fail to see the value of large collections of information that say

http://duckduckgo.com is an excellent search engine that takes user privacy seriously. For me it tends to fail on very specific queries and then I use it's Google Bang to just have it redirect me to Google. But it's as good as Google for

Why is it ok for copyright holders to have a monopoly over the distribution of their content? If we go to the core of copyright law the original intention as I understand it was to encourage creation of stuff and my assumption is that the p

Not at Home Depot. The employees there tend to only know where things are in one small section of the store. And for other sections they send you on a wild goose chase where every employee you ask tells you a completely different section an

Running Orkut and Google Plus doesn't really make sense unless Orkut still has a large South American userbase that would be hard to transfer over (not sure if that is the case still).

Check into Heroku. It's not traditional shared hosting but works similarly. Very much a no-admin setup. And free until you need to ramp it up to handle real traffic.

Maybe it's my age (currently 23) But Zagat has a good reputation and critical mass? I know Zagat as that magazine that fast food places brag about getting high ratings from (KFC ran commercials for a while claiming a #1 rating from them).

"Cheap, Fast, Good. Choose two" is a pretty true statement. I did Rails contracting for several years for various startups and the biggest mistake I've seen over and over is startups relying on contractors solely for development. A contract

So why not add more ads to Hulu and make it bring in as much money as traditional channels? I don't mind ads and let those that do mind them pay to skip them. The issue with normal television is that I may not want to or be able to watch th

This "twice the work" argument was clearly addressed by the post. Firefox has a much larger market share than Chrome and has already clearly stated they will not support h.264. If anyone created a problem of having to do "twice the work" it

Just tried this out. Very cool start, looking forward to seeing how it evolves. I would love to see either an API to pull one's own data to graph it. Or built in graphing of some sort. Also more activities overall. Looks like there are only

The 23 deaths part is a huge stretch though. There's been a few noted injuries at such mobs when turned riot but I can't even find an example of a single death from a flash mob type gathering.

While I would be incredibly happy to hear that IE switched to webkit. 95/100 is a great ACID3 score. And they explained why a few of the points weren't made. ACID3 just tests things that browsers usually get wrong. Not necessarily things th
