The text area scrolls to the very top every time I type, not letting me see what I type [Safari 4.0.3] Pretty cool app. A tutorial to go along with it would do wonders.

Add difficulty levels. Only 50% to get to the next level? Too easy! Being able to raise that percent will make it feel more like a difficult yet fun game. [Some] users will want to keep trying over and over until they reach that goal, and r

TCP vs UDP is a hot debate. It really depends on the type of game you're trying to build. http://www.gamedev.net/community/forums/topic.asp?topic_id=3... As an interesting note, World of Warcraft uses TCP.

I agree. I got way too excited seeing multiple articles about Go in HN, but started wondering a moment later why there would be more than one such article about a board game, as wonderful as it is.

I figured out what the site was about when I first loaded the page, but only because the popup told me "No _deals_ around you, redirecting to...". You _need_ to have the word "deal" somewhere on the page in big bold letters. As soon as I sa

Great idea! I hear similarities in songs all the time. Now I have a place to document them :)

Hopefully there are no musicians nearby. One with a good enough ear can easily memorize a 15 second-long toneless rhythm :)

The secondary processor -- used mostly in smartphones -- also draws much less power than a more robust desktop or notebook processor and so while it's running in the background it doesn't drain the battery as fast: using just t

I disagree. I believe its discovery and wide use turns it into a respectable genre. Its use shouldn't be looked down upon any more than the use of the blues progression.

I don't have much experience with advertisements, but maybe you could try changing the ad based on what they're translating to. For example, if a user chooses to translation from Spanish to English, you could display an English ad about lea

I'm a 4th year CS major. During the second year, I seriously reconsidered changing majors. I felt CS "wasn't enough programming", and therefore not relevant to my future. However, I stuck to it. It's only recently that I've discovered that
