Microsoft is not a person, but it is an organization, and like every organization has a corporate culture. For me, it's absolutely like having a character, exactly like a person has. It certainly starts with the founders, but grows wit

"The list of someone's friends who don't use your app is no longer available in v2.0" A step in the right direction in terms of user privacy, but sounds like something that will affect a lot of products.

Interesting. I wonder if some changes will need to take place in order to make sure the client side tracking services (e.g MixPanel, Kissmetrics, Google's own GA) ignore Google bot.

Well, actually I used to develop UI intensive MFC applications for quite some years, and absolutely loved it! Not that different from developing for Android, and as I remember it the Visual Studio was (may be still is? haven't used it

I tend to agree. I just signed up for uploadcare.com, haven't tried them out, but the design seems very nice, and the their free tier allows up to 1k uploads a month - forever (got a very prompt response from the founder).

As surapaneni rightfully commented - they do offer a free plan for personal use, which you'll be able to use. I'm using them for some commercial projects just as a client side library to allow uploading files to my s3 account (alt

Hey there! The software looks very good, although I'm not in your target audience. Good luck! I'm curious as to why have you decided to package this as a desktop software, rather than a web app?

That looks cool! I'm having a hard time finding a good way to discover good music. Currently my favorite, although not optimal - is to go over grooveshark playlists published on /r/groovesharkplaylists. Some concern about thi

If you point me at a market and say "build a product for this market", I'm pretty confident I could do that and be the best. That's quite a bold statement! Any market? A social network, an online retailer, a search eng

That's very impressive - both in terms of revenues, and product development! Are you doing all the design and development work yourself?

It's based on how many years the person heard or read about zuckerberg, and how many years he's spent on earth learning about life. The statement is an opinion (and is phrased accordingly), and it's based on his or hers uniqu

your numbers are off - took me a lot of tab switching on my tablet to figure out the mistake :) it should be millions, not billions, and they represent the proceedings (the amount raised on IPO), not the market cap.

I think a different way to ask this question will help you learn more about the candidate. After the trivial answer has been given - ask whether the solution would change if you knew the query will be done several times for the same array,

So how exactly do you get better results 30 seconds later? How do you index more relevant pages? Do you... Google it?

"that's what happened" It didn't just happen - seems like you have intentionally copied someone else's idea, down to naming and design. You're obviously entitled to do so, but it's not something I would run bragging about on hn, especially

Sound like a great idea, good luck! I often read a paragraph or two from a book just to get the feel of it, so if your site would display those, people like me could use it as a sort of discovery engine for book or authors. In terms of desi

The concept of using the social graph to create a better dating app is certainly not extremely groundbreaking, but I'm curious about the naming. The claim that "Haystack is an extremely likely name for a dating app" is a weak one - the fact
