Out of curiosity, who are you referencing as the $9m funded startup building Javascript frameworks?

My impression is that HN is generally friendlier and more professional than Reddit, not harsher. You may want to dig a little deeper into Reddit; there's a lot of behavior on there that wouldn't fly here.

2/3 is kind of a vast majority; it means twice as many people are paying with cards than not.

I sort of understand the first point, though I don't think they did it on a whim without any "merit." I don't get your second point though, why do you lose respect for them for competing with a product MS hasn't even released? Edit: I saw y

I think you're misinterpreting your parent comment; I believe he's referring to the fact that to become a featured article you must go through an extremely rigorous process that definitely improves the article it's applied to (see: http://

This kind of tone is generally looked down on here at HN. I think there's an argument to be made on your side, but you're doing an exceptionally poor job at making it in a civil and friendly way. I'm genuinely interested in the other side o

"Company Muse’s database is in Python with displays in HTML, CSS and JavaScript." Better than the average tech article, I guess, but still incorrect.

I wasn't aware that Netflix used social data to influence your recommendations; I was under the impression that they were based only on your own use and ratings.

According to the HBO documentary "Hot Coffee," which is excellent, by the way, even after she sued she didn't request damages beyond medical costs, rather they were awarded by the jury.

That's not really specific to fingerprint access though; I'm sure many companies track key card use.

They sold ~13% of the company. Compared to going public, I'm pretty sure they're keeping way more control. Also, going public is extremely expensive and time consuming.

I'm not sure what you mean by the last sentence, but despite rumors, Facebook has not bought Opera. I highly doubt Google would punish Opera because they might be bought by Facebook.

Very reminiscent of the work Stamen is doing; I'm a big fan of both. Here's Stamen's watercolor map: http://maps.stamen.com/watercolor/#12/37.7706/-122.3782

But if you had gone through gumroad, you wouldn't have done the same volume. If they renamed the "delivery fee" as "hosting and market placement" would you feel okay about it?

It's one thing if you tell them before hand "C, C, it's all about C here!" But every interview I've had has been pretty flexible in letting me choose what language to use.

I guess I just don't understand your original comment. What is ibdnox (creator of LightTable) doing wrong? It seems like you were accusing him of being a money-grubber but I'm not sure. In the response comment you seem to be saying that Kic
