Young people use facebook to find apartments. So if your apartments target young couples or room mates, facebook is your place. For families we have craiglist-like solutions.

I can say that people in Israel prefer facebook groups for many reasons: 1. It allows for "team search". My friends knew I'm looking, so they tagged me in relevant posts they saw. Can't do it anywhere else (including mar

I was a CTO of a company that did scraping to gather data and sell the analysis. We did this for sellers on Amazon. In short about legality - it depends on the country. But most will define user content as owned by the user, not the platfor

It's probably not what you meant, but I recently created a weekend project bot that scans facebook for apartments rental ads. Thanks to this bot, I landed an opportunity I wouldn't have catch otherwise, saving me 6,000$ a year. As

Uber didn't almost killed you, an irresponsible driver did. It is very dangerous to strip all responsibility from the actors themselves, even though Hacker News likes to hate Uber and usually upvotes this kind of stories.

In my opinion, this is a bad practice. 1. It prevents discussion. Whomever wrote the "TODO" solemnly decides what is there "TODO", without the ability to discuss options. 2. It does not allow prioritization of tasks easi

And they should be able to do so. We are free people (I hope). If one decide to buy tobacco, it's his own responsibility, and he should have the freedom to do so.

This seems to defeat the idea of flexbox. Grid systems were needed for old CSS, but with the powers of flexbox, we better off using it directly then using it with a grid system, as the grid system will be limiting and will not give any sign

But what if I want a messaging service to specifically be disconnected with other services? By your offer, not only that you are forcing me to connect with everyone, you take an essential part of my privacy. Your suggestion is anti-freedo

Everything you said is true, but I don't think the argument here is about the past, but rather about the future. MongoDB was great and innovative compared to other solutions when it started, but now, it's dragged behind while othe

I think you might be mistaken in the assumption that remote working leads to less productivity than co-located. This is purely up to the team. Sometimes being co-located leads to over meeting and lots of time spent on disruptions and chats,

I'm using Ghostery as a privacy and ad-blocking extension. Does anyone have data on the impact Ghostery might have on the browser memory usage?

There is no "free". someone is paying for this, and this someone is you through taxes, but most of it is the companies taxes in Spain. This makes small businesses lives in Spain hard, and make big corporates think twice before get

yep, but those will crush financially at the end. They will have to improve. Governments not, they'll just take more taxes.

I suggest the opposite. The reason you can't work just 3 hours a day is that you need to make money for other people as well. Too many governmental jobs that has really no real value, but exist due to socialistic idea, governments want

Why is it for the government to decide for the people how much time to work? where is the individual freedom of choice?

Breaking up a company is a violent action. No one forced you to use their service, and they do not use violence or any kind of illegal actions to kill those who try to compete with them. Google simply are the biggest due to being the best.

The point is, that requiring an add-on, either this one or Hacker News Enhancement Suite is not the right solution. it's too easy to implement to keep the comments system here as-is.

Well, that's straight up fascism. You have your opinion and you think it's right to enforce your opinion by force on others. I shouldn't fear for my freedom, that's not a good functional society.

"as they should be able to"? That's it? we are living in a world where privacy and freedom aren't ours to demand? Governments "should be able" to kill off our freedom? I haven't noticed we've gone tha

What about the Servo project updates? I really like those, to watch it's progress.

you are right, I haven't stated my point correctly. The missing point is that of the market demand. DRM is out there, it's too late. It will be used anyway, with flash\silverlight or what have you. So, this demand should be answer

Because it's a need of the market, using third-party plugin is no harder, maybe even easier to implement. So it's not an overhead for the site implementing it. But rather it's an overhead for the user. you'll have to ins
