Hi HN, We got a great response to our initial post about Hacker Daily last week, and we're back with our first episodes. Everything is a work-in-progress... we're calling it the "minimum viable podcast." We hope to make

Hey, I run AngelList's jobs platform. If you could give me details on the recruiters that spammed you, I'd really appreciate it (dave@angel.co). Either way, thanks for the mention.

This is super-helpful, thanks for posting! One quick suggestion: it would be great to be able to save the numbers you've punched in so you can share a URL with someone (e.g., spouse, parents) next time the rent v. buy discussion comes

We're not scraping much data from other sites yet -- we wanted to focus on the core experience of "read what your friends are reading." We plan on taking advantage of more data sources in the future, though I don't think any Facebook Social

Thanks for checking it out. We don't ask for permission to post to your Facebook feed, so FB can't change anything there. Facebook definitely tracks the last time you used an app -- they expose it to you via the Application Settings tab ( h
