Thats a genuinely great idea! If that site had decent image/marketing, it could go a long way into shaming companies into secure practices. The closest thing we have right now is the EFF https://www.eff.org/

Are you trying to find people who are learning to code, or recruit experienced developers? Falling into the latter group, I don't see any reason to pay $30/mo for an online community which already takes my time.

I've always felt that a race to the bottom has been inevitable for telepresence robots. Just look at what happened to Android tablets. This 50% subsidized pricing on a new product tells me the race has already begun.

Really, how?? Wouldn't that require the installation of a custom root certificate on every client?

Google clearly has an unprecedented (well, maybe except for sun..) set of technologies on the horizon. Between network infastructure, mapping, energy, robots, and now home automation, their dominance in the future is easy to forsee. However

Wow. Why would anyone want a nice HTML slideshow when we could enjoy it in your all-caps pasted format? Do you convert every pdf and powerpoint you see into plain txt?

There is no dirt. Hydroponic means just water and a medium without nutrients (small white perlite rocks in this case). I already use my laptop in the presence of water, coffee, and food. I doubt there is much risk in this. Looking around my

This quiet "Show HN" reaction is probably because you haven't actually shown anything. You don't even need to make your product generally available. If hoist is a set of API's, why aren't they publicly document

If you really listen 5 hours a day, Spotify pays nearly 4x for your music as you pay to them. (calculated with 300hrs/mo, 3.5min/song, and $.0075/song) Good thing they have so much VC money to keep the lights on for a while.

Ok, I'll be the one to poke fun on a technical level. XHTML, really?? One big splash image, really? Oh, and this unused javascript: > onload="timer=setTimeout('move()',2000)" Is this for real??

Snapchat probably does not want to break all of their deployed-and-delivered apps. If they shipped the app/service without a "force the user to update" feature, they would risk leaving thousands of users in the dark. And if t

I was a big fan of Rdio until I realized they publish a list of your entire music collection publicly under your username. I found that out by googling myself one day, and I closed my Rdio account immediately thereafter.
