   I think that a Show HN section is a good idea. However, I'd strongly suggest it is more like a subreddit than just a filter to only show 'Show HN' posts if possible. It would encourage people to use it but keeping it separate

   What, in 2010, a full stack developer didn't need to understand UX? Did the provisioning layer somehow magically vanish in 2010? Its a bunch of false comparisons. The simple facts are this: 1) Full Stack Developer == Generalist [ Do lo

   I'm glad they are doing something but I worry it might be too little too late.

   In the case that he cited, that is why the named defendant was acquitted and sent back to Mexico. They didn't have a case that stood up in court.

   Eh? https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Parallel_construction NSA hands it over to the DEA who arrests you based on an investigation based on that information. They've been doing it and getting away with it so I think y

   The argument was basically "Mexico didn't say we couldn't do it based on the extradition treaty, even tho they were aware of the Ker doctrine under which we'd be allowed to do this when the treaty was negotiated". S

   I think the reason Americans don't see foreign spying as an issue is this: If the US spies on a German citizen, the US can't go and arrest said citizen without the German government's consent. However, when you spy domestical

   Ya, that what scares me too. I run stock android BYOD style with Tmobile. I don't want them to switch to the Sprint model of terrible apps and higher prices. :/

    Do you honestly want to argue 51% of the people in poverty can pass a college level Math or English class? As well as afford the time away from working to gradate? I don't think that is true. http://www.duck9.com/Colleg

    I think the underlying problem is the bottom end of the US labor market only has two ladders up and they pulled out from under them: Manufacturing Education to get a better job [I don't mean college. I mean something like a trade schoo

    Yep, not an abuse of power at all. Seizing all the evidence to interfere with a legal proceeding. This seems perfectly legit to me! /s I'd hope that the U.S. Marshals [as a service] would have people fired for this and a Judge wou

    I'm not from the UK and I never believe anything a company puts on its about us page. ;) If they are doing statistical analysis on password, they'd have to send that information somewhere so I'm not surprised that they are. A

    I think its experience. They built MWS first, which imo, isn't significantly better than Heroku's API in terms of reliability/transparency.

    Ya, I'd build it myself if I wanted to rely on the security of it. We'd have no way to know if the source is the same in the Chrome Web Store as it is in the open source project sign we can't check the signature.

    I'd agree that is better...but I am guessing that Google doesn't want to build this functionality directly into Chrome. Anyone who isn't Google wouldn't have the option for Chrome...Chromium isn't 'mainstream&#

    With one exception, I never [e.g. 4+ years pass] visit the same hotel/motel twice. So to me...most of the customer is there once and never [e.g. 4+ years pass] again. Maybe for someone who hits the same hotel/motel multiple times
