When I read it again. He contacts paypal support from another email id associated with a different paypal account. Paypal support sends him the report for that account and closes his ticket. While there is no question that paypal has to get

Amazon may not be sending someone in. But there could be some "paparazzi" out there who would like to get a photo of this for his/her fame. Then, it will be visible to amazon, facebook et al.

I am not sure why HN fails understand the value of youtube video views. It is more like (ok, not exactly) getting your startup promoted on Techcrunch. If your startup has some material, then this exposure can get you go places. But if your

It has nothing to do with giving credits. I (and I'm sure many others would also) like to read less tabloid-y and factual reporting anytime and so would prefer to read the story on Guardian than on Fox.

Why is HN that is against patents in general now seems supportive of Motorola ? Am I missing something or is this patent supposed to be the "good" patent ?

Now they should also ban start-up founders who brag about working without sleep continuously for days. It also promotes living disorders and there could be teens out there that would copy this and put their health in danger. Edit - Working

And the pity is, there are very less private spaces online. Even if you buy your own domain name and host your own site, you are still only leasing the name. And the domain and the site could well get seized when you start speaking things t

This would be a good time to start a site that publishes the lawyer's that come up with such cases. That would at the least shame some of them from taking up such cases in future.

Most of those I found at fiverr are recorded at home and not in a good studio setup. For simple voice overs for selling those $1 ebook etc, fiverr is good option. But for a bigger business, its better to look else where.

How does this compare to Google Hangout ? With hangout you don't need to install any software and sharing the screen is easier compared to many alternatives I have tried.

Easier to just leave the phone in the classroom and go watch the movie or hangout with friends. And by the time the classes are over, come pick it up and go back home as usual. The dad thinks the daughter is at school.

Curiously enough, none of the Samsung's printer show the tracking dots as per the list at https://www.eff.org/pages/list-printers-which-do-or-do-not-d... . Not sure if that means they do not track or they use some other means to track ?

When you have no food to eat, and you see that your food is taken by middle men, then the issues of privacy, freedom of speech etc becomes irrelevant. But once your stomach is full and you don't have to work 18 hours a day x 7 days a week t

Yes, I agree. That issue is tough to solve. But this will solve the issue about people that do not exist at all. The ones that is artificially created by the middle men to scoop the money off and who only exist on paper.

This will atleast make it costly for the middle men to cheat. It will be difficult to replicate the retina / finger print scan. And that will surely reduce the low level corruption that directly affects the poor. Surely, this will not remov

I seriously feel there should be a way in HN to save / bookmark comments that we like. Currently we can only save the main story thread. Now I have to add this comment so as to bookmark your comment.

The strategy of RIAA et al seems to be working. Make an example out of someone and the rest of the weaker links runs for cover. Even if the megaupload team gets acquited later, it will still be a battle won.

Just curious. How do you know the relevant person to contact in Google (or for that matter any big company) ? EDIT - I'm genuinely curious. Other than the sales people etc. I could'nt find any relevant details.

That is why it is better to get a website way before development begins and get interested people to provide their email id to be notified of your launch. This will provide you an early indication of whether to continue or quit.

If you watched the original un-cut video, you would've seen the hungry villagers in Godaddy T-shirts and Caps skinning and chopping the elephant. That was disgusting. He thought of making it as a campaign, but when it backfired, they edited

Any change you make to your contact details will lock your domain for another 60 days. That means, you will be stuck for another 60 days before you can transfer the name away from Godaddy. http://help.godaddy.com/article/418 - Browse to
