There are per-subreddit (and sometimes general) sponsored stories on the top of each page, separated by the rest of the actual page by a big box. Example: http://i.imgur.com/LvkN5.png

You're going to be sorely disappointed when you find out that the majority of user-facing applications at Google are in Java, which you'll hear even less of on places like here. The reason you don't see mentions of PHP all the time on place

I'm going to apologize in advance if any of this seems too stern or rude. You seriously don't have the correct mindset about this. You are thinking in a way that a lot of other people share, but it's not practical. In the real world you hav

Seeing how Sebastian is the head of the team working on it, I think it's safe to believe him on this one.

Is it broken right now? It just says "API call failed: Internal Server Error" when I hit Test API. There's also a good API which powers my favorite Android HN app over here: http://hndroidapi.appspot.com/

Wow we had different experiences. I only interviewed at start-ups and none of the companies I talked to asked me any ANSI C questions. I had some interesting Python do-in-whatever questions at one company (which I did all in Python) and on

When I worked at the office supply store across the street from Valve HQ I had a guy come in and order 8 laser printers or delivery and he told me he played the role of IT over at Valve. So I'm sure they actually have people who choose to f

Same here, my thought process whenever I see a new notification goes something like: "someone commented on my pull request? Two weeks ago? And I already replied to it?"

This is an unadvertised feature, but yes, the new processor can handle 16GB of RAM. Last time I looked (although not very hard) I was unable to find 2x8GB sticks though. The 8GBs of RAM I have in my MBP (which sounds to be the EXACT same ma

Most of Instagram's "technology for handing photos" uses S3, as described in previous Instagram tech blog posts. Instagram however has a massive big data structure which would lead to any big company getting high value out of them. Why use

It's a little too late for April Fool's isn't it? It seems strange that they're deciding to keep the Instagram social network up as its own independent social network, that leads me to think that their acquisition was really for their big d

Couldn't you set up a simple web app to get one time usable (or reusable I guess if you want to allow sharing) of the images from Parse's API since Parse just stores them on S3?

I did, no such luck. Same as every single year I've tried. You'd think having been invited down to Google for other summer events would help but it doesn't. I'd buy a ticket that doesn't qualify you for any swag if I still get to talk to pe

Matte displays show images more true-to-print too, I prefer my matte display both for programming / being outside / editing photos. I really don't understand why anyone would want a glossy display other than "it's easier to clean"
