I've never used CloudStation, but with respect to BitTorrent Sync, the DiskStation would be just another device that syncs the files. So the main benefit is that it acts as another backup / seeder for your private p2p network.

I used the ARM binary. Log in to your NAS and use wget to download the binary, then execute it. That's it.

I've been using BitTorrent Sync for the past week. For the use case of sharing large files, it obliterates Dropbox, AeroFS, and Cubby. It distributes the files intelligently and makes optimal use of everyone's bandwidth. Dropbox, for exam

If Discourse takes off and becomes something people want, more and better Ruby hosting options will appear. With a few killer apps, maybe Ruby will become the next available-everywhere language.

Trello is one of those things that I would have said nobody needed, until the first time I touched it and realized the pure joy of moving cards around lists. That's the power of making something that's fun to use.

The HN audience, and the hacker community in general, also has a libertarian bent, a question-everything bent, and an interest in secure systems. This all makes the TSA pretty uncool, even for people like myself, who barely ever take the op

They need to rebrand Yahoo Mail. Like MS did with Hotmail -> Outlook. Nobody wants to have @yahoo.com. That's embarrassing in 2012. Or 2006 for that matter.

On instagram, you can't browse someone's photos unless you follow them. Otherwise, the only way to see a photo is if you have the URL. It's part of their privacy model.

Maybe they could start by importing, categorizing, and structuring the entirety of Wikipedia. That would be a good tech demo.

I suspect the effect of this is that the most attractive 10% of female users would get an even higher percentage of all male-to-female messages.

This is a low-quality submission. It's a two month old, three paragraph blog entry expressing a vague sentiment, with links to low-quality sources.

I have good luck with using Chrome's CSS editor, then right clicking and hitting "Save As". You can keep working without reloading, and periodically save your changes back.

To be clear, this is a fallback that uses feature detection to determine if the browser rendering the page supports the <video> or <audio> tags. If so, it leaves your tags alone. If not, it instead uses the Flash-based Flow

It's absolutely terrifying that there exists in the world the type of individual who would plan and carry out such vast and permanent destruction of unique information. I can't imagine a motive that would rationalize something like this. At

I was hoping to see the back button be clickable from the left edge of the screen. It's a large oversight, in my view. https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=571454
