I wish that my bank would let me set a message to pop up whenever withdrawals over a certain amount (or percentage) are made. If we can't be secure, I'd at least like my would-be-account-ruiners to know "LOL STUDENT ACCT". What would be eve

Please elaborate; I have only minimal experience with ObjC and do not use Ruby in the context of native development, so any well-described counterpoints would be much appreciated. Edit: I obv. didn't write your parent comment. What I meant

Re: Whisper Systems, do you have an iOS version available or in the works? The icons you used seem to imply it, but I see the source and all examples are for Android only. A quick search for "Whisper Systems iOS" (which was a suggested stri

Also keep in mind that all of these people, regardless of salary level, are pulling 60-80 hour weeks on average , often without pay.

To be fair, every semester we were given a bill for the total cost with tuition "discounted", so it usually looked something like: Subtotal: $37,000 Amount Due: $1400 (student fee) I thought they were just making passive hints

By far the fastest way to make myself fall asleep is to enumerate all possible excuses for not going to sleep yet. Either way I "win"...

I think I just found a new people-watching side hobby. Next on HN: Burgling across Brooklyn as hipster keychains "pic-pocketed" en-masse... I'm really looking forward to when I get the time to rig up my door so I can use my yubikey instead.

I'd probably want to kill myself if I had to drive through Atlanta more than once a year. I couldn't even imagine driving in/around Atlanta with any regularity. Edit: I'll add that in all my years of driving, thumbing, and general perus

Interestingly, most Japanese people I know do have their licenses– but do not drive. Money or access to a car isn't the issue either (disclaimer: anecdotal), rather they just don't want to drive. They all got their licenses because they t

Read it again– I'm not saying F.lux is the source of my sleep issues, just that it's made the exacerbation of said issues occur less noticeably (to me, of course). Before I started using F.lux there was an obvious taxing period around 1-2am

I recommend F.lux as well, but I've noticed a very unfortunate effect over the last few months... because of how soft it is on the eyes at night, I've learned that with it enabled I can continuously work 16-26 hour sessions without even rea

None, but how much is really necessary here? [I would] Expect the ISPs in this case to be relatively complacent, regardless of the quote from the "industry insider".

Very handy! Here's another feature suggestion: include the renewal rate on your price comparison. For example Namecheap does .co registration for ~$13 for the first year, but after renewal it's ~$22 (just did this yesterday).

I would think HN is the kind of place where that's exactly what people would want to do. I'm not convinced by this Chromebook either, but stock configurations / things I can change are definitely not the reason.
