   Wait for an year or two. IMHO, HTML5 is going to evolve much faster than ActionScript. When I saw these kind of cool animations in Flash years ago, I wanted to play around with it but couldn't see the source. It was all hidden behind the sw

   Spend a lot of time during the interviews. That's the surest way to get rid of these kind of people. If you depend on your HR to hire for you then you WILL end up with an unreliable and mediocre bunch of people. (My company has a HR team bu

    I think both can coexist. HackerNewsletter can be more fresh while hackermonthly can become slightly longer for a regular HNer. Some articles attract too many upvotes in a really short period. I am usually not away for more than a week. But

    Isn't draft a bare-bones sketching/wireframing tool? This seems to be a task manager.

    You obviously haven't heard of e-learning industry. These kind of tools are used very regularly by e-learning professionals, and instructors. Sometimes everyday. (How do I know this? I was doing e-learning for a few years.) But this tool fa

    This reminds me of a launch check list posted to HN long back. Link here: http://www.boxuk.com/blog/the-ultimate-website-launch-checkl... . That's still a good list and more usable because of its spreadsheetish look.

    I think he is referring to asset hosts in #20. Rails does it pretty easily. ActionController::Base.asset_host = "assets.example.com"

    I am not US based but still need a decent payment processing system. All existing payment processing companies are US-centric. Any luck for us?

    <div>'s might make sense from a purist's point of view or even from a experienced web dev's point of view. But I think, hn's changes have been based on pragmatism. So tables could be one of that. I remember pg saying he left out sea

    Even better, use unobtrusive js to do that: $('your element').click(function(){//put calls to mixpanel here; return true; });

    I really wish this gives a good competition for Moodle. Moodle has been the only decent course scheduling system for years. Competition in this area will advance the technology.

    Some nice changes there. Namespaces make it even more easy to work with legacy databases or mixing rails tables with say wordpress which prefixes all its tables with 'wp_'. Another nifty change w.r.t MySQL: positioning using :first => t

    My first line before I submitted the comment was "Barring the tone and 'HN hipsters' terms...IMHO.." but I deleted that in the last moment thinking it wasn't adding any value. But looks like I should have retained it :)

    IMHO his argument seems valid. My site's Google Analytics tells me what were the search terms and which search engine sent me the traffic. Why not share that with the web masters if that can help them create better content or tweak their SE
