To be frank, it's really hard to believe that. They're being acquired, it isn't up to them anymore what happens to Mailbox. They signed the keys away to Drew Houston and the management team at Dropbox. Mailbox dies the moment Drew decide

The number isn't published because it's outsourced, your bank is not the one handling the call. The agents will speak as if they're from your card issuer, but you will notice all the automated systems will say "cardmember services" or othe

Have you never been in an IKEA before? They serve traditional sweedish food in a cafeteria at every single location. Furniture shopping can be arduous work. IKEA recognizes this and sates your hunger with cheap eats. It's part of the ex

Over 5 years ago I turned down an offer to work at LivingSocial. Last year, I would've been worth $10 million on paper. All of that fake wealth evaporated today. What a mess.

I think their hypothesis is something like all long-form text should/will be annotated. While I think it's important to dog-food, I agree that the execution in this case isn't great. The "links" really should just be links.

They're not links, they're text annotations. Rap Genius is a text annotation platform currently focused on rap lyrics. In this case most of the annotations happen to be a link + context, which is pretty rare.

They ARE trying to get more attention and it's working. The only reason Heroku has prioritized this issue is because it has grown bigger than a customer complaint in a dead-end tracker. Rap Genius, by being smart and noisy, has made this

I talk to a lot of startups about analytics and this is definitely a problem that needs solving. Doing lots and lots of external API calls is nontrivial at scale for someone who is "just a Rails app". Lots of startups need analytics but a

Exactly. The highest order bit is cash flowing to developers, unfortunately. If Android matched iOS in credit card coverage and user's propensity to pay the platforms would be way more competitive than they are currently.

I'm co-founder of MinoMonsters. We launched our game on iOS but spent a lot of time prototyping on the Android market. Our android prototype has 250k+ downloads and 2k+ reviews. Here's some steps you can take today to try to move the n

He's a 28-year-old kid with a marketing degree, that's about it. I know a fair number of people in the Baltimore tech/startup scene and no one has ever heard of him before.

I've been working on ways to have this be more obvious with outright explaining it. Each column is a week, a black box means you had a day with an email, an orange box means you had a day with > 1 email.

Hey Hacker News. This is an app I built over the last few days when I realized I didn't know which email lists were sending me the most email. Please let me know your thoughts, ideas, or questions.

I think you're not giving authorship enough credit. Being an author under a well-known publisher gives credibility, shows competence, and may confer the "expert" title. Considering the other ways to this path take years (working ones way u

I don't think it's safe to assume that a niche feature upgrade to a JS/CSS framework is inherently bug-free across browsers.

Is it really worth installing an entirely new library just to achieve something a simple line of CSS could do? .modal-background { background:white; } For me, Twitter Bootstrap's components have been the right tradeoff between flex

I'm sorry, but bullshit. Clash of clans is a great game. I have played it nearly every day since I've downloaded it. Am I a zombie, sucked in to the compulsion loop so tightly that I can't escape? No. iOS games are not habit-forming dr

I can't speak for him, but I do believe that was his vision for the future. However, what he shipped (Facebook 3.0) was native. He was long off the product before the frankenstein HTML5/Native Facebook app shipped.

Great usability requires attention to detail. It's the sum of many, seemingly small changes. Have you seen how much work has gone into the "breathing" light on macbooks? Or the math behind scrolling on iOS?
