   What about the Japanese Paperwhite? I came close to getting one last December but decided to hold off. The people I've talked to who own it haven't mentioned having any issues. That being said I sympathize with the rest of Groxx&#

   You might be interested in this[1] which was posted to HN some time ago. iOS is a no-go for this sort of thing for now at least, but I'm unfamiliar with Android. For hardware modules I think the thumbs work very well as a modal control

    "Saved links" might be one reason. While I wouldn't advocate using HN as a personal bookmark service it does lessen the burn a bit if nobody else comments/votes on it. The good thing is that if you use saved links for th

    Neat. If you want something similar offline there should be a couple emacs packages that do essentially the same thing (e.g. artist-mode).

    What is your point? Regardless of how easy or hard the tools we make are obviously someone has to learn them to use them, and when they use them well it will be praised. If this allows people to make better and more robust software with les

    I don't think Pure Data is as scary as people make it out to be. It's certainly quite plain looking– similar to writing code with no syntax highlighting– but once you settle in it's enormous fun and very straightforward. The

    One thing is that traditionally users don't buy fonts . In the past, the only people you expected to get any money from were people who got paid to set the type. You might spend months to years working on a single typeface and in that
