I feel like it's a valid concern for someone to want to know what's on their system. Sure virtualenv is a great solution, and I'm sure the person you're responding to knows about it. But there is a place for skepticism i

So, I see the main benefit being that this takes the guesswork out of the web application backend, but how else does this simplify the Google Glass app development process?

I remember Penn Jillette describing government as a ratcheting mechanism: a situation where once a bolt is tightened, the tool only recoils to tighten it further.

It's always a good sign when the sentiment shared is "why didn't I think of that?" I agree Apple should've created something like this, but I'm glad their inaction has benefited an innovative crew. Go Ink!

I'm willing to bet the question has a fabricated back-story. If you look at the user's question history: there are some interesting ones, but they all could be justified as a collegiate homework problem.

There are people that believe in 'non-science things' on every continent. I don't see how providing antagonizing labels based on nationality helps your argument at all.

Thanks (to you and others that mentioned it) for bringing this to my attention. I'd never heard of the Martingale betting system. Knowledge is power.

clickbait? Are you suggesting that this would've been better as a Show HN post? I have no problem viewing the site of someone trying to show me something useful.

What I'd love to see paired with this data is a cost comparison. At what scale does performance of ruby/python/php become cost prohibitive? Twitter made the move from Ruby to Java some years back, did they ever post a comparison of their nu

I've been toying with autocomplete fields recently. I came across this great article on improving the country selection experience. http://uxdesign.smashingmagazine.com/2011/11/10/redesigning-... jQuery UI Has a cool autocomplete plugin.

I find it painful how political speculation from seven years ago is still so entirely true. This speech resonates today and better articulates how 'politically backwards' the US remains. As an aside, I don't know if it is an attention span

I am mostly disappointed with this response. I see this as an attempt to skirt the issue, the technical problem. Sure, developer success is important, but the issue is with server performance and efficiency. I would rather they address thei

I'm sure there are other utilities that behave like this, but yours seems very aesthetically pleasing. I'm going to try this with some friends that are struggling. I'll be sure to report back with its effectiveness.
