Propaganda would make it as a thread, but scientists (from west), if allowed, could use this data for scientific reasons.

UK, Ireland, many customers from US/Australia. Many European customers. Maybe you are talking about tech people. I am talking about mix.

UK and Ireland are pendrive friendly. It is not the most popular word but used here and there - thus I said common. When talking to some of the US customers they use it as well. It is not as popular as USB stick or Flash drive, but still qu

You must be talking about specifically your area. I live in Europe and most central and western Europe (maybe north not so much) is filled with cars and cities are big enough to provide enough parking spaces. Only UK and Ireland are the cou

Most of the people will struggle if they do not think in a given language. I often spoke with people saying they are "fluent". But they weren't and they could not think in English besides small problems. Once you learn to thi

Working for. I was working for an outsourcing company that catered for companies like that. My hourly rate were ridiculously high, but still companies would be better off hiring us, than employing.

Legal would be outsourced, marketing same, spam control - yup, the same. That leaves developers and critical function staff. Twitter could easily work with 200 staff from 2 locations.

Unless bug in their system, hack attack or human error deletes all droplets from your account. And yes, I have heard of stories like that from other hosting companies where a human error caused the account to be deleted and data removed.

Same here. I sometimes dream about situations, conversation with people I do not know to have it re-happen 1-2 years later. The dreams are extremely realistic and very specific. They happen only ~once a year. They are very strong so wheneve

All phones I had lasted at least 3-4 years of constant extensive use. In my Samsung Omnia, I had to change a battery after 3 years just and I was using a lot of it - especially as a GPS unit. The battery fault was also my wrongdoing in this

I am also surprised as this is not the first time I am reading about it on HN. Linode seems to be highly vulnerable to certain attacks as we could see in the past. I hope they will fix it and provide a permanent solution as I was hoping to

I am quite surprised, that instead of allowing users to change modules (and thus are forced to build it up with casing and connectors) they didn't release certification on doing it and let people drop their phones to the mobile service

This simple code and more time on hands to spend on promoting = successful startup. No one really cares about scaling YT-like app when it has 10 users. Developers will handle that. And if they want jobs, startups must be made. As you might

But you writing this as a bad thing? It's normal for a community to pick tools/solutions that are preferable. A lot of HN users are for example startup owners/creators so it's normal that they will prefer easy and semi-a

Just to leave it here - use downvoting when the comment is NOT SUITABLE for conversation, not when you disagree with the statement. As long as the statement is nonoffensive, not a lie and not a trolling - do not downvote it.

Ah right, missed that. I thought it was from different thread what so ever. Thanks for pointing this to me.

I would actually assume, that most people will downvote comments that are bad or don't fit the conversation. Or least that's what I am doing. Getting privilege of downvoting is not that easy to get and this weeds out a lot of trol
