Am I missing something? This is a post from Dec 2013. 1.2.14 still looks to be the current version of Angular. There was a commit today on Angular's GH removing IE8 from their test configuration which implies that 1.3 is going to be

Mocks are useful for providing state where it's queried from external objects. They are also great to verify that the intended external side effects of an action occur. verify isn't / unit tests aren't the right mechan

I'd wager that many of the people who had their money stolen (particularly at gox) aren't what you'd describe as "bitcoin enthusiasts". Less-technical people who have either heard about bitcoin, or who have been gi

Interesting and good idea. I had a couple of accounts in the Adobe breach, though I don't think I got an email from them (maybe it was spamfiltered or I changed my passwords before they sent those mails out), but I wish that there was

Aah, I didn't see that in the article - I can find a kickstarter post referencing them as a partner, but didn't find anything talking about a 50k figure. I guess that figure does represent a significant investment (their contribut

No, this is HN, they're not supposed to get any love here. I'd suggest .NET/C# myself. It doesn't have the new flavour of the month feel, but there are some interesting things happening, and it's a solid platform w

TL;DR: a small team at Microsoft (modern.ie) have a site old-ie compatibility scanner that they've written in node and want to integrate into a CMS. This probably isn't a larger strategy or play at Microsoft. It might be a sign

Not intending to be terse, but: 1+2) You could catch a decent portion of this type of behaviour with a tiny fraction of the effort. Logging local activity on individual user desktops is a waste of time, for example. Raising the difficulty

Wow, this describes something quite close to something that I'm working on (and covers a number of problems that we've faced). That said, all of the issues listed, while intractable, aren't impossible to deal with. CORS is j

I'll be honest, a couple of years ago, I believed something similar, but for different reasons: * Friendships change over time, no social network (Facebook included) could crack that. * "The youth" don't want to be on th

Sounds like a good opportunity for a third-party (robots.txt ignoring) tumblr indexer. That said, yahoo's probably trying to remove NSFW content to fill the ad spots that they're invariably planning on throwing down everywhere, so

Thanks for the response - I'm running into similar issues with a product that I'm building, and my planned approach pretty much mirrors yours, so the validation is very useful.

This is a service that IMO is sorely needed for those who don't have the budget to hire an advertising company (who'd tend to get their interns to write copy for you, and at more than $175 for a landing page). That said, I'm

In 2006(ish?), I worked for a subcontractor doing hardware swaps on Dell machines, and these capacitors single handedly accounted for maybe half of all repairs that we had to do during the time (and that's against even trivial and common st

I don't know if I agree with this. I've worked on large MVC applications for government, they definitely exist. MVC is IMO a simpler (and more consistent?) beast than aspnet, and in my experience doesn't have the same lazy legacy/dinosaur

It's probably mainly targeted towards servers but there's a healthy market for it among consumers. After all, there are a lot of people out there with specific needs or wants that call for storage - it may be a 'niche' product at the momen

For general (ie not Scribophile info)... http://www.reddit.com/r/Bitcoin/comments/19t3uq/hey_rbitcoin... is the best that I could find (admin from Reddit talking about Reddit Gold revenue). It's interesting that the accounting costs more

Definitely similar problems, but in a somewhat different way. This library looks more featured than Angular UI Bootstrap, though in mostly small ways. The popovers allowing external templates and custom scopes is one example, and the inclu

It's there to deter fake counternotices by giving the original issuer time to seek an injunction / file a lawsuit I think.

Call me naive and oldschool, but this is my biggest issue with bitcoin - essentially all of the coverage comes from people/groups of people with (what are now) large investments / conflicts of interest in bitcoin, so any negative (or object

Adwords has advertised private jet leasing in the past. The fact that they appeared in my google apps indicates that the technology isn't as scary / all knowing as the article tries to lead readers to believe. It touches on but IMO fails t

Completely unsourced FUD, and probably the result of some guy just fucking around and sending some "journalist" an anonymous email ala http://x-surface.tumblr.com/post/41282771026/x-surface-dont-... . if there was any source at all.

Amazon's not amazing at announcing useful timelines for their products/services. There are presumably a bunch of internal factors at play, but spending limits aren't the only thing that's been "in the works" for ages. If you're holding ou

All of the 'fashions' in the list are alive and well, in one form or another and (usually) helping someone. While the dogma eventually does wear off, there's almost always something that can be taken away from each of the approaches. The r

Google's business models are at-ends with one another. Are they an ad company? Are they a free/low-end provider who can get away with killing popular services when they no longer benefit them? Are they a serious provider of business serv

Thank you. This is pretty much exactly what I read the post for and was a little disappointed not to find. People talk about getting frontpaged on HN, Slashdot or Reddit, and how you need to be sure you can handle the load, but never give
