That was a great read. It's amazing how years pass and the only update to the issue is a large stream of other bugs being related to this one. On a side note, something as small as this triggers the deep down OCD in me and makes me f

This is great. Keep it up! I don't mind the copy/pasting at all (I'd rather have the video progress than watch someone type something out). Looking forward to future shows (and 30 Rock references).

I'm not a Snapchat user, but my girlfriend is. I watch her use Timehop and she laughs at old tweets she made... when she actually used Twitter. She then goes to Snapchat and watches other people's stories for the next hour while

Is the data compressed and piped into a known compression algorithm, or is there some other technique used? I'd love to know how the actual program is run. Side note... the visual output is really interesting to see, and I'll ad

They're using reduced redundancy which should save them a pretty penny.

Completely off topic, but this thread is an example of why I (and a lot of people) want collapsible comments native to HN. I'm on my phone, in Safari, and I had to scroll for over 20 seconds just to reach the second comment. The firs

I like a big breakfast of pancakes (with butter and syrup), bacon and eggs, coffee with cream and sugar. That is usually around ~900 calories. I count macros and weigh everything daily. Sugary cereal is my weakness and I can easily eat 3

As someone who has purchased most of your products, I just wanted to say thank you! I admit I've pirated a lot of software in order to try it over time, but I end up buying what I start using in my workflow. I don't make money pr

I feel bad for the people forced to switch due to various reasons. The Mailgun guys were always extremely helpful when we used them and often went way above and beyond in helping us debug mail issues. Also, their webhook API is great when

I just played with this for too long, and I made some images I'd want to hang on my wall.

Man, what a chapter of your life. I've had something similar, and it's amazing to what extreme trials and tribulations you'll go through with someone during a relationship. I like to think we learn a lot from these experien

We've been experiencing huge problems with our multi-AZ and encrypted MySQL RDS instance this morning (it looks like a hardware issue). We're contacting support, but are considering taking our entire application down and migratin

Ah, I completely missed that. They have absolutely fantastic documentation for the entire product. Thanks for the links and info!

I'd love an overview of how GitHub Enterprise is deployed and maintained as a product. How are releases handled? Are all installs on-premise, or any hosted at on GitHub infrastructure?

Ugh :( ... He was one of our favorite customers, and an insanely nice guy. Every time we got new company schwag, we'd swap! We were all a bit floored upon hearing this. My condolences to his family and friends.

I hear you. We have had a ton of adoption of our Chrome Extension, which also has features like Open Tracking, Send Later and Salesforce Integration. When you click to create a reminder in the extension, we do populate the "bcc"

Not related directly to the article, but I wanted to quickly and highly recommend the book "Surely you're Joking, Mr. Feynman" which they referenced. A fantastic and very fun read.

Same here. Tribes 1 was one the best games I've played, to date. It was extremely fast paced, had an amazing team dynamic, and the character movement (skiing and flying) was beautiful. I haven't found anything comparable since.

This was actually a question I had. I'd love to know: If a company uploads a project minus a license, and I fork that project, do I have free use of that project? If so, would it be point-in-time of the fork?

Indeed. Also, definitely Bill Mollison (Geoff's teacher). I studied with both of them in the AU, and they have done amazing work in agriculture.

Very interesting. How do they make money? The product looks very robust, but when I see nice products like this that charge no money, I wonder how they stay alive. At least disclose how they pay their employees? Are they a consultancy?

I would probably guess a lot of reasons. I'm not sure that there has been "that" many large agro studies on many of the techniques. Also, I think something as simple as planting large crop on swale (not in a straight line)

Congrats Brian, Fred, and team! Quite an interesting funding round, and, quite a blooming market. Keep up the good work! I have to say, this sector is one of the most interesting to watch.
