I'm sorry you feel that way, but looking at the comments and upvotes, a lot of HN users do find it interesting. I couldn't care less when there are a bunch of SEO or Clojure stories on the first page since that's not what I want to read abo

Have you not been consuming any American pop-culture for the last 15 years? :) I recall an episode of the Late Show with Letterman, where Letterman would call up people living in a small town Eager Beaver Creek (or something like that) and

I like it, but here's one big issue: Using ! as the command char is a pain. It's two combined keystrokes to produce that character. If you used a dot (.) or a space ( ) as the command char, you would reduce the overhead of entering a comman

That's what I was doing, and that's what I don't like. Continuing to write the word to the left of the part of the word I've already written -- that's not my cup of tea.

I can't say I found Dan's app all that useful. After trying it out for a while I "benchmarked" writing a text using the iPhone keyboard vs. writing with Dan's app. I found that I wrote slower using the Note Taker app than with the keyboard,

Yes, but there is still no bookmark manager. Try to create (on OS X) a bookmarks folder in the bookmarks bar. Proceed to add two bookmarks into that folder. Now... How do you edit/delete/rearrange the bookmarks that reside in the folder? I

I find that many programmers tend to use OO in javascript for everything they do, even when there is no call for neither inheritance nor multiple instances.

No, you get a 3.06 GHz Core 2 Duo as standard. The 27" model can be upgraded to Core 2 Duo 3.33 Ghz, i5 or i7. Read the page you linked to one more time :)

Will that be the only charge then, or is this in addition to the operator/ISP charges?

Which JS engine allows you to call setTimeout like that? Isn't setTimeout(expression, timeInMs [, args]) the right way to go?

An iPhone update is ~350 Mb or so, which might not be suitable 1) to download over air or 2) store on the device while still running the older software version (350 Mb is a lot of space).

I can now see why Apple approved this app -- it's not that useful actually. The sound quality from a 3G-streamed song is a bit faint. What's worse, I never thought I'd feel so crippled having a music player that can't run as a bg process. I
