Really disappointing to see so much bootlicking in this thread. Yes, 1Password is a great product and, yes, AgileBits is a great team of developers. But this change sucks and spits in the face of long-time paying customers who have come to

posteo.de is great. Here's a good chart [1] comparing various providers with respect to privacy and other important factors. In my case, I went with Posteo because they offer the nice combination of anonymous payment method, located in

I thought I'd made myself clear in the original comment, but I'll try again: the issue with these sites is not the "channel"/imageboard format itself, it produces great results at a certain population size. The issu

Whoops. Well, I guess there's no harm in posting it on HN: lainchan.org

Not sure if you're open to the idea, but I've found that smaller image boards, particularly those with a specific subject matter, often are home to excellent, substantive discussion. The only issue is that once a critical mass is

This analogy fails when you consider Chinese and similarly encoded written systems. Sure, there are methods employed that use radicals in order to provide phonetic "hints," but written Chinese is predominantly acquired through rot

>already terrible Don't quite see how Chinese is so terrible. It's a remarkably efficient mode of writing for a language filled with monosyllabic words and homophones. Japanese's appropriation of hanzi is largely a histori

There are many (*nix-inspired) aliases for frequently used commands though. I think PowerShell's preference for verbosity is a strength more than a deficit. Why "grep" when select-string "sls" is so much more intuit

As an incoming CS student who is terrified of interviewing this is an absolute treasure-trove. But this also makes me wonder--should I forego interviewing until after having taken an algorithms and data structures course?

This should be released, if only so that we can learn how to evade it. Perhaps it could be broken by only writing anonymously in a different language from that of your public life, for example.

Thank you for your comment; it has proven very useful in my decision. I didn't really consider a second major, and though I'm not sure one would be very feasible at the liberal arts school, but the rationale still helps. I'm

Yeah...when I read the little intro displayed before it pops you into the actual app I assumed this was just an update to Keep.

I'm a high school student taking AP CS right now. At least anecdotally, the main problems with the program are curriculum related and instructor related. The curriculum sadly is very fine-tuned to an obscure Java-dialect created specif

That they have gotten this unsigned code running means they have jailbroken it. This WebKit exploit might be patched but there are almost certainly more holes to be exploited.

I love Mou. I've been using it for several months as I've been getting accustomed to using Markdown (which I'm fairly new to) for my class notes. It just keeps getting better and better. Thanks Chen Luo!!!

I find Firefox has much smoother scrolling for me on OS X, compared to Chrome. The rubber band effect for me normally is quite a slowdown.
