Had a similar experience. Google recruiter contacted me about security role on Android team, NFC and mobile payments stuff, sounded good up my alley. Sent programming skills email, I honestly said I suck at coding I work on security design

This looks awesome! I'm just starting to learn ruby and was going to look today on whether there was a way to run it in a browser very easily. Wonder if this is the answer

Why be so cynical? Here is a company that has found such a massive golden egg that at least for now it can hire really really smart people to work on cool projects that may end up changing the world.

You could be right and I do 95% of my tasks in a browser. I just found that I do not want an OS without the other 5% e.g. gaming (unless something like Onlive really takes off), offline access and performance (unless HTML5 delivers), periph

I had great hopes for Chrome OS... that was before I actually used it. It is literally just a browser. After using the iPad and I'm assuming Android 3.0 is just as good if not better. Does the world really need Chrome? If I'm going to have

Agreed it seems a totally Orwellian path for the authorities to be able to track anyone they want without a warrant. Who watches the watchers? http://www.schneier.com/blog/archives/2006/05/the_value_of_p...

I agree with @ThomPete. The value I get from it is: - Ideal for work colleagues especially from previous work. I keep my Facebook to IRL friends and Twitter is fully open but linked in is that nice middle ground for colleagues. - Weak conne

What does the HN community think of the greplin concept? They have recently added a Chrome plugin and a greplin search replacement for standard email search. Think it is a public beta and anyone can signup if not ping me and I'll send you a

>"Apple doesn't know it's me -- because the data is encrypted" Actually it is because the data is made anonymous not because it is encrypted. If they do this correctly they really don't know it is you.

Great clear response from Apple. Patch is a good outcome, turning off location service actually stopping tracking and limitation to 7 days are very good moves.

Great idea, often have this problem also especially with more people linking video on twitter, Techcrunch TV etc. Will check it out but will it cache the video on my iPhone and allow me to watch it without an internet connection? I.e. what

Arash good security is about mitigating theoretical risks before they become actual. I am most disappointed in Dropbox because you had made statements like all our data is AES encrypted and our staff do not have access to your data. These a

Ian, I know that Paypay has a poor reputation for being buyer centric but they have 14% of the global market ( http://buswk.co/eN1mCa ) so they are doing something right. I deployed Paypal for my SAAS ( http://www.simplesecurityra.com ) and
