Any public API should be documented. I can spend all day reading your code trying to code against your API, or I can read the API docs & be on my merry way. When/if there is a bug, I can fix it so it adheres to the specified purpos

But your email server would only need to send links to images that are gigabytes apiece, and that are generated procedurally, no? The true bottleneck would be the pipe between your procedurally generated image server & Google's ser

Hmm - so we can flood Google's cache by sending an email full of links to procedurally generated images?

At least git is distributed so you should have copies of anything you cloned :) Sadly, this is the way of tech companies though - skimp on real customer service & replace it with one sided FAQ's and unanswered forms/emails. Th

No, I would like for this tool to work with deactivated accounts so that data can be retrieved in the event of Google deciding to deactivate the account.

Unfortunately this requires you to be able to log in. I had an account (with the same name I use here) mysteriously stop being able to log in about 6 years ago. I lost all of my email, contacts, and calendars. I was never able to find out

I'm not sure how I'd feel about a repost to jsfiddle without my permission if I were the original author. How is this any different than reposting xkcd or other webcomics on alternate hosting without the author's permission?

On the other hand, a "good" equity comp plan could lead to a toxic work environment. This even happens with people waiting out the vesting schedule on 401k's and such.

I thought HN rules required the link title to match the article title with no editorializing? In that case, the title of this post most definitely needs to be changed.

Isn't the supposed purpose of an investment bank to properly value the company so that these massive IPO pops don't happen? The fact that they happen at all means the banks are not good at what they do, or they do it on purpose so

I do think something needs to be done. I don't think that something is to completely dismantle the NSA - that's as reactionary as the PATRIOT act was with regards to 9/11. The USA has some of their most brilliant crypto/
