   I agree. Every post like this is pushing HN closer to being like Reddit. What has become of this community

   I'm confused. Is javascript really that hard to use that we need CoffeeScript? Why was CS even created?

   This post is best fit for Reddit, not HN. Please keep our community clean of offtopic postings

   I'm curious how this classifies as "new html technology." Its letters being replaced by an images of letters in a different font. Text selection doesn't even work precisely due to the this archaic methodology. What am I missing?

   Considering Dropbox doesn't do automatic upgrades (at least on a Mac it doesn't), you can always stay at an older version of the client where this new protocol isn't supported and thus Dropship still is valid. I doubt that Dropbox would eve

   Again, that requires you to: A) move the files to the public folder B) watch out for bandwidth limits on the public folder C) give your Dropbox account ID to everyone as it is tied directly to the URL With this method, you get anonymous fil

   "Speed Up..." that is if I didn't already merge, minify and gzip my files :)

   I agree. This is just another article of someone speculating what has gone wrong, possibly in order to get hits on his or her blog.

   I see your point here. I hope non-public files are protected from Dropbox's deduplication

    So who is game for setting up a repository site of json hash files?

    I agree. I actually proposed this idea a while back but never went through with the implementation. I hope Dropbox turns a blind eye to this because I think its fair use of Dropbox. Instead of someone sending you the file and then you addin

    I completely agree here. Hacker News has become a reddit cesspool over the last year and the types of posts popular on reddit seem to make it over here. I will leave this community in a year because I am sure the two communities will begin

    Everyone in the class was pissed off at them. They make it seem like its some "education program" but in reality they are making money off our work and we get paid nothing.

    Except for the fact that they force us college students at Cal Poly to do their tech write-ups for our Technical Writing class. iFixit is filled with a bunch of losers. Sorry for being blunt, but half their "how to"s are written by college

    Please don't get mad at this, but the reason I love hackernews is because its not like reddit has become: there are no silly posts or posts that don't relate to technology and programming. This post seems necessary for reddit, but not for h

    I created the exact same thing using Kohana but has a community aspect. My friends love it, I think this would be great if it offered community features.

    My friend created the EXACT same game for iPhone two years ago and they rejected it for the same reason. Interesting.
