   I wonder how they got to know their material so well...

   This is just such an incredible gem. Certainly required reading for everyone on HN. The original, that is.

   But how exactly do they make money on developers using their API?

   This is the kind of thing that just makes me wish there was a open source or distributed alternative to these services. Really? A decision like this is news? What happened to the internet?

    Yeah, this is pretty impressive. I assume the production team probably has a lot of experience. Thanks!

    The production quality is surprisingly good for something I found through a link that includes the text 'funded through kickstarter'.

    I was never a flickr user, but I was always impressed by the devotion of those who were. I rarely encountered passive flickr users — they were always deeply in to it. The growing frustration with the neglect of the service seemed logical wi

    I remember someone around 2001 describing vulnerabilities in keyless entry to me. It sounded technically feasible, but I was surprised that I never read about it or heard about it happening to anyone. I guess I wasn't reading Jalopnik,

    This article is from 2012. It's definitely exciting that the Lomax archive is online — but it could be worth updating the title. On another note, if you're interested in Lomax you might also be interested in Sublime Frequencies [1

    I really wish this didn't look like a bad imitation of an Apple product. Surely it's possible to build a nice looking laptop that doesn't look so similar to a MacBook. If you're going to do something different, just be d

    I think this is good thinking. It might also boil down to something as simple as "Jony Ive". He strikes me as truly a designer of physical things by nature.

    There's nothing better than something that looks beautiful and is precisely specified. Really nice.

    I strongly believe that in order to do good interaction work you really just need to understand typography well. That might not be a popular viewpoint around here, but I encourage you to consider some of these references. I recommend Josef

    I am so excited about stuff like this. http://softroboticstoolkit.com/ was the first thing that really perked my interest. It just seems like such an obvious yet under explored line of thinking.

    A thought on readability: It would be nice if there were either (a) two newlines between each quote or (b) only one newline between the quote and attribution.

    Thanks for the thorough response! I went to visit a friend who fell in the 'reasonably dispassionate' category for a few days. Perhaps that's what influenced my exposure. It is, of course, a beautiful place and I enjoyed my t
