The mapping is not done so people can find your WiFi and connect to it. It has nothing to do with whether your access point uses encryption or not. It's just a way to do triangulation using known anchor points. Suppose there's 3 access poin

Yes, as long as it's designed for speed, it's not a good fit for storing passwords. That's why people should use bcrypt or an equivalent. It has both built-in support for salting & a work factor. (Source: http://codahale.com/how-to-saf

If anyone's interested, I put up the code I wrote for packing Jade templates into a single file and serving them to the client with Express: http://pastebin.com/kRtCJHYH (feel free to do whatever you want with it) I found there were very

Well in my case I wrote a little packer / minifier for compiled Jade ( http://jade-lang.com/ ) templates and serve them as a single JavaScript file. When you have different templates based on user rights, you should probably make different

Exactly my thought: why have one server proxy request to another Web server instead of having the client use the API directly? Your main Web server could just serve the initial page / application / whatever, and then the application lives o

On Xbox 360, XNA comes with the .NET Compact Framework which indeed includes a pared-down, non-generational GC ( http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/bb203912.aspx ). (On Windows though you get a full .NET framework.) As a developer for

At first I was misled into thinking this was just a site making fun of contentless startup landing pages. It's actually about testing your email formatting / sending. The full article is located at: http://www.alexrothenberg.com/2011/10/24

Am I right in guessing that the file is streamed to the server and the server streams it to the other end? It's not actually a direct transfer with some flash-based NAT punch-through or anything?

Come on, this is HN indeed, can't you assume a little good faith? They're here answering questions, trying to learn from potential customers. Have you launched a product? It's easy to call it "marketing bullshit" and move on with your day.

You seem to be surrounded by people having a very bad influence on your state of mind (insulting father, friends mocking you). Think about it for a minute, how would you feel if the people around you where understanding and kind? You'd thin

The issue isn't about the == operator returning false. It's about the == operator's return value not being typed. Evaluating "a == a" could return the string "potatoe" which would evaluate to false (and make no sense). I don't see the big d

One of the stamps at the bottom means "Retina Display support". That's probably why the texture are so high-res.

I don't see this as more than a gimmick (a nice one, sure). You end up with mute, non-semantic icon names (single characters) in your CSS, single-color icons only. Vector graphics are nice, but then you might as well go for SVG. The one val

The website doesn't have access to your friends and cannot post anything without your consent. It can just set up an isolated iframe which is controlled by Facebook. There is no communication between the iframe & the page you're on (exc

Works fine in Chrome (dev channel) here. I was a bit surprise to have load times (spinning wheel & all) between each and every page though.

Yep the animations definitely need some work to feel more natural. It should be very short, just enough to let the user feels that it's not jumping from A to B, but not long enough to introduce delays during which what you want to touch is

Windows 8 has Charms, Android has Android Intents, and Google & Mozilla are working on Web Intents. Composability is on its way back at the mainstream user level.

Internal server error on the confirm link, and my full name has an "é" in it, so I guess it's the same issue. Also, log in with Google Account does nothing / doesn't work either. You really don't wanna let me in, do you? :)

Sounds like a neat app! The tooltip on "Support" says "Got problems. We got solutions". You might want to turn that dot into a question mark. Also, the support page has 3 P in Support at the top
