Would also be interested to hear someone from nodejitsu's response to this.

They mention somewhere on the site that they sell a private version of npm that they are working on, and also nodejitsu (the company behind npm) also runs a node hosting platform: https://www.nodejitsu.com/

+1 for the share button up top ( https://github.com/carrot/share-button ) - but adjust that hover color to blue or grey! </shameless plug>

I didn't actually read the whole post, I just noticed right away that when I hit the page, it showed me a collapsed nothing with just the footer and I assumed it was broken, then the content appeared. This was a little weird for me, bu

I feel like when hungry-VC-fueled massive growth is the goal, no good result ever pays the bills : / It's sad for me to see companies just keep pushing and pushing when they could have stopped at something great and just got bette

I may be mistaken, but I think the entire point of this recent change was to force people to use their real names and faces rather than commenting anonymously (due to the fact that youtube comment sections are typically the worst things eve

That's a good point. But at the same time, people have figured out ways to disable the way they try to monetize off free users, and on top of that the sentiment is that this is a good thing. "Hey ubuntu ius evil and selling our sh

While I see why people are unhappy with the sale of their data and ads, I have to agree with you on this. While obviously I don't enjoy having my information collected and sold without me really knowing by default, they do need to get

haha this is a really excellent callout. well done.

Exactly my thoughts. As long as these don't start showing up on a more general search and only for what's obviously a search for only that specific company, I'd consider it an enhancement.

You can move your sights after they are aimed. Let's start at $5/month then see how it goes : )

haha fair question. I'll post in on HN as soon as it's done (maybe it will make it to the front page, who knows!), and I'll reply to this comment and let you know - promise : )

I don't agree with that either. It starts as a hobby, sure. But if it's doing well, I could definitely keep working and expanding it out. Start small and ship fast.

Just this weekend, I started coding up a tiny "saas product" that I thought about last week. Nobody knows about it, and that certainly has no launch page or audience. I got most of it done over the weekend, and really enjoyed putt

Rather than offering a free trial, you make everything paid upfront and offer a refund if they don't like it. I wonder if this strategy will net you more or less sales. My gut tells me that it will be less, because more people will be

"really" being the key word. if it's not immediate, it's good practice to show some sort of loading indicator, and neither angular or backbone are immediate.

Was just about to post this same thing, huge plus one. JSONView is a life saver, highly recommended.

Ah, the NSA doesn't need the internet for these things. They will have a custom backdoor that slurps up the fingerprint as soon as you plug in your phone to sync.

I think the way to do it is to make a program the generates "controversial apple articles" through a little natural language processing and a bank of commonly-used vocabulary. It could totally be done, hah

Idn, I'm not impressed with the initial load time. If that site was served as a static page that was recompiled when a new article was added, it would be significantly faster. But at the same time, subsequent loads would probably be a

I think that issue, while valid, is entirely different from what OP is talking about. That is the question of client to server side rendering tradeoff, and it looks something like this in my view: - If you have a website that people will co

Nginx - just remap the urls. We run http://carrot.is (not meant to be a plug, just an example) served statically via nginx and the urls are "pretty". You can use a little statement like this in your nginx config: if (

Turns out they aren't actually that cheap. To get a real EEG from Emotiv, it's $750 just for the device - the $300 version doesn't seem to actually be an EEG, they call it an EPOC, and don't exactly explain what it is, b

I've used superagent ( https://github.com/visionmedia/superagent ) a number of times and it's wonderful, but beware if you're trying to make it work with old IE.
