   Well, Google is known to be doing many evil things, like providing different results in different countries for same queries in same languages (and no, it's beyond personalization). They obviously have some agreements with govts and such to

   It's a matter of conventions. Look at Linux kernel for instance. Error codes are positive, but if function is returning error, then return code is -error, i.e. negative and it's pretty sensible solution. Mind that in case of syscalls, errno

   He may just predicted: quotes will always guarantee intact query (hopefully it won't be broken ever), so they're ultimately giving you better results. If you think from the current perspective many changes and constants we've seen or we're

   Informative comment, i.e. not really a response. For those who don't know correct term yet (I didn't up to 2 years ago). Florin_Andrei refers to so called scare quotes . Wikipedia explains them as follows: " Scare quotes are quotation mar

   Seriously, I was wondering today whether I should ask HN what you think about these google smart inflection and alleged misspelling detection. I am so tired of this. I do mistakes (after all errare humanum est), but I do it rarely, yet I am

   You may consider adding more sophisticated validation routines. Check my ruby snippet for possible inspiration: https://gist.github.com/571093 (IBAN, ISBN, ISSN, VATIN and some other numbers used in Poland)

   Due to its nature NodeJS is performance-wise still a better solution than any Python-based one, at least for now. And it's async in core and by rule, thus nodejs modules are async too, yet no async-motto is coupled with Python, so it's much

   With simplistic design there isn't much that can be done wrong. This is a good thing. But OTOH in such case it's also hard to provide universal tips as tastes regarding minimalism and such are different across the globe. Therefore you canno

   To not complicate you can read whole page as you do usually and after that keep Ctrl+Right until all comments will be marked as read. Then in next visit Ctrl+Right will scroll page to the new comments (if there are any).

    Scroll wheel won't mark your read comments. Also it won't move you to the first unread comment. It won't allow you to highlight particular comment either.

    I put some screenshot in Chrome Web Store: http://goo.gl/Hq9Rn The main point is obviously tracking read comments, which can be quite useful in longer threads if you return to them after some time. You can easily go to the first unread co

    Hm... Didn't know that obviously jest comments are ill-favoured in HN. Hackering is a serious business apparently.

    I almost agree, i.e. second-level-legacy 0.7.x line is good enough for most of web needs, so indeed there is no really strong urge to upgrade to the current stable, though some nice features came later. What I do not agree is keeping really

    So now what? Commercial nginx with WebDAV support for all those serious companies using SVN? It doesn't require as much as $3M, or does it? :)

    Thank you for this insightful comment. You're right, music keyboard is obviously better than computer keyboard in all ways. I didn't want to argue opposite statement. Behringer UMX610 looks more interesting, but it's a bit more expensive. H

    Good to know. Thanks for this remark, but USB MIDI controller with Ableton LE won't be cheap either. :) Also quoting wikipedia: As of version 6, Ableton also offers a stripped-down version of Live targeted at the non-professional market. I

    Thanks for comment. Tracker evolution is a good thing, but somehow recent works from trackers sounding like from DAWs/sequencers, with MBs of samples per instrument, etc. are not what I am looking in them. Back then you had .xm, several KBs

    Thanks for your comment. Maybe you're right. These YT examples are really nice. Even though I can hum or sign accurately (thus this has clear advantage over playing), I am more inclined in getting track of my melodies early (i.e. what I am

    Thank you conner_bw and jdietrich for covering topic a bit more deeply here. I am open-minded and I like discussions from various PoV. Even if I am only a guy with casio (somehow it sounded like a really lame thing, is it? :>), I happil

    Sorry, I did not, as I am short on time recently. I have done it just now in speeded up way and indeed, session view looks quite interesting and useful for music prototyping (assuming you already clearly know what to play, doesn't look equa

    Thank you for comment. Developing such skill would be awesome. I have some grasp of intervals (far from perfect), but not scales, so I have to find the first tone to properly continue. When I find the scale, it's easier to follow the melody

    Thanks for slipping in. I don't have any Apple product. (But I'll possibly buy some MacBook if there will be TrackPoint in it - sadly I feel it is quite unlikely to happen. I know there are others like me, though.)

    Thanks for your comment. I know that some recent keyboards have memory for lot of songs, LCDs displaying recorded music and such, also USB port to store it on pendrive. It should be quite productive.
