Also I just view-sourced... holy hell, what are you doing with 130KB of minified JavaScript? I'm guessing its a huge blob of libraries globbed together? Also your session cookie's name was amusing.

Cool! It seems like it assumes the TLD is .com for now - do you plan on expanding it? Maybe do input.<tld> for .com, .net, .org, .io, etc? Also it seems like your data source is out of date - for example, your site tells me that name

FYI your comment, as written, sounds extremely spammy.

Why not link directly to her site? http://jessicahische.is/monkeyingaround The blog you linked to (and you seem to link to it a lot) simply excerpted some of the text from her site, and then included some of the images (but

The Wikipedia article on quinoa [0] claims that Between 2006 and early 2013 quinoa crop prices have tripled. That statement cites an article earlier this year in the Guardian [1] which links to another Guardian article [2] which does

Which is great, as long as you're able to tolerate gluten. I know two people with Celiac disease, and quinoa is a godsend to them.

Land rights. High-speed trains cannot travel in tight turns, so to build SF<->LA requires pretty specific right-of-way purchases.

There will surely be a lot of discussion of your code, but it's still awesome that you put this out there under an open source license.

Adrian did the hard work - building the code that does all the console.image stuff. I wrapped his code into a Chrome extension that injects it into every page. Figuring out how to write the Chrome extension and inject the code took < 30

Inspired by (and built with) Adrian Cooney's excellent console.image script [0] posted here earlier; now you can have it on every page! [0] https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=5962086

Here's the source for a Chrome extension: https://github.com/jffry/console.image-chrome-extension I submitted it to the Chrome web store; it should now be available to install via https://chrome.google.

I'm in a similar situation. I used to use Google Listen for podcasts (which was backed by Reader). I never used the online interface, but I've been using Listen a lot. I tried a bunch of different free and paid apps, but I settle

The only advantage I can think of for this is that it could be concealed in the wall, where a passive IR motion detector requires a clear field-of-view of a room. The downside is that this is actively emitting microwave radiation, so it wo

The linked article and video never said that it wouldn't work on non-human moving objects, just that it would work on moving humans (as it is a wireless relative-motion detector) It is possible that this tech is especially effective

This is notable because it's an actual implemented system. Yes it works in theory, on the exact same principle that a radar speed gun works, but these researchers have shown that it is possible to implement in the 2.4GHz band. That&#

To be fair to her, these were agents who were not uniformed, who (it seems) did not sufficiently identify themselves, who surrounded the girl and her friend, who drew a firearm, who tried to break their windows. If I was in that situation

It has a lot of value to sit back, grab some popcorn, and watch the warring comments between camps. It's easy to get stuck in a rut using a tool you know, and these sorts of discussions can yield a look into what other people use, wha

Cool. It looks like you updated the letter to mention that your users can download all their data, that's a nice addition
