I think there's at least as much progress to be made via platforms developing solution systems, ala CAPTCHA, password reset emails, the verification system used on swappa.com, "salutes" (verification selfie), verification

Totally baffled at any/all articles and discussion of this by anyone who's familiar with their modus operandi. It's CaH. Either they're going to donate it, or do something awwbsurdacomical, and all they need is your name

So a low-level low-pass filter would throw a nice wrench in this, right? I wouldn't really mind having most of my devices limited to 20Khz.

And they can't rent bikes, create a locally-staffed concession area, sell tchotkes, and pull some $$$ out of the tourists? Tourists gonna tourist, and might as well beat them at their own game, and put the money back into trail infrast

This is one step closer to when I think wearables will turn an important corner: when they're commoditized as OEM parts that can be built into enhanced versions of things you already want. Rings, shoes, bracelets. Oh, and when people r

My third time reading this, and a new question popped into my head: Are there any volume adjustments (on software or hardware) that take into account the pain threshold curves? That is, volume adjustments that aren't flat, but that wil

When there's a Latté ISO spec for Starbucks to comply with, or a Big Mac catches fire, then these will be directly comparable.

It would physically pain me to work at a company that sells defective equipment. I'd like to see amazon just develop in-house testing for certain types of stock. Cables, power supplies...

I'd be fully ok with this if the kid in question was actually learning about "Equals Versus Equivalency," but all of my school experience says that's unlikely. I hope I'm wrong.

Honestly I'm not really sure how this works - but uhh.. maybe the Fork 'n Go concept could be applied for more "out of the box" ease? ( https://github.com/jlord/forkngo )

It appeals to me personally. My personal income in NYC is much higher than the average for the area I live in, and it seems to me that many younger people around me have aspirations modeled on those they see in popular media/instagram&

Fantastic. This also led me to find that the entire trilogy is available on the App store. Now all I need is "Continuum," and some grape Crush, and I can pretend I'm 14.

Indeed. My first thought was "Are tech companies trying to poach these folks in order to try and deconstruct what cues they're using, and/or to create a corpus of verified matches from low-quality source?"

From a "site-builder" perspective, I find this to be an excellent balance between high and low level interface. Perhaps less capable than something like webflow, but the learning curve here is a piece of cake. But unfortunately, t

It's striking to me that here on HN, where there's rarely anything approaching consensus on software user satisfaction (IMHO), evernote is being roundly blasted. These feelings weren't formed in 2015 (I've been disappoin

Bringing to mind... all of these apps should have the ability to lock the screen when they detect a strong shock, i.e. being knocked to the ground.
