   BoingBoing went through the same thing... they closed down comments completely, and then some time later brought them back with a community moderator, who ironically privately censored posts by "disemvoweling", as well as completely censori

   This is exactly why I'm contributing to the Locker Project. I personally have data on tribe.net I'm concerned about losing. I could write a scraper myself, but I know a ton of people who feel the same way. These are people who aren't progra

   Thank you for clarifying. I agree that having supporting material is important. ...on the other hand, screencasts on JavaScript by Khan / Resig would be exceptionally good for the JS community.

    We have these in the 33 story building where I work. They can be frustrating, and fantastic. Hopefully one of these days I'll figure out the "cheat" codes to skip the bidding system that occurs to determine which elevator to summon first.

    We had a thing on here a while ago called "Offer HN" where all sort of people offered (for free) their services to others. You could do the same thing for startups here for copywriting / marketing.

    Just set up an instance of Pinax last night on Slicehost with Debian 5.0. Very smooth, highly recommend, especially if you want social features. Would like better Facebook / Google / Twitter oauth integration though.
