I have two questions for which I couldn't find the answer: 1 - Will these companies provide data from all users or only US citizens? 2 - Who has access to the data? Only people working on this program at US intelligence or a wider set

You really shouldn't mention medium.com in one line you have. Serious bloggers will stop reading right there. Overall, I give you thumbs up.

Somebody needs to take responsibility for this. Letting 520 people go is not normal, especially not in the tech industry. It's a disgrace.

I was done with Facebook when they introduced that the content from a page you 'Like' doesn't necessarily appear on your timeline. That was a deal breaker for me and many others. You 'Like' something/someone for one simple reason. You feel

People who want their email under control already have something similar - for instance, I have filters and labels and folders for Newsletters and offers, one for Family and friends, University and so on. People who haven't taken control of

Always good to see a new physical product on the market. All is well but I decided not to part with $35 for this product - simply because 9 photos are there forever and you can't change that. If you had a web interface where 10 of your phot

I like flat design but probably for the wrong reason. I had some luck in other business but decided to pursue a new career in software development a while back. Basically I knew nothing about professional design but I was an avid follower o

A good idea is just as important as its execution. I know the author is going for a massive exaggeration with the statement "Ideas are worth nothing" but it's simply not true.

I quite liked Kim. But lately he's been nothing else than a guy that's in media so much he becomes incredibly annoying (to hear news about him/her/them). Something similar to Lana del Rey in music business, Julian Assange in politics, Messi

Best HN post since I've joined. I was in a very similar situation not so long ago. I know a few others as well. Last month, I watched a lot of snooker as there was a World Championship in Sheffield. Ronnie O'Sullivan [who later won the cup]

No but if he uses Gmail (and it's a pretty good chance) he will. If not, he will find out sooner or later. Paypal's era is coming to an end, it was just a matter of time who would have claimed it. Luckily, it was Google rather than Facebook

I can't believe how Paypal isn't out of business. With their poor service, dire fees and all. It's become a very poor service. It's a massive market. Google has hit a jackpot there. I salute then.

I understand the philosophy behind your deed. Plain stupidity might be an exaggeration but it's kind of like paying $6 for a bag of apples to assure they're good enough for you even though the price is only $4. Bottom line, it was unnecessa

Free beer, free pizza, free Netflix, free this and that. I admire Buffer's attempt for a healthier lifestyle of their employees. It might not sound as attractive as beer and pizza but it's better for everyone - healthy and happy employees a

I'm glad somebody brought that up. It seems like the current mindset is 'an App I can make a living with' rather than 'an App people need'. Executions seem poorer and poorer as well. I blame that same reason for end of gold App rush. People

Tube map doesn't say it's scaled so therefore the argument 'look how close these two stations are on the map' isn't valid.

Basically everything on the internet is coming a postcard rather than a letter in an envelope. I'm not sure I can accept that.

You were basically being cocky saying: "We're doing fine without you and we don't want to work for you." That's not how business works.

I disagree. iOS (number of users) - rising Android (number of users) - rising That are the only two things you need to know - you have a terribly large market. You can't make a living with a sh*t app anymore. No, people won't buy just any a

Needless work for personnel department. What you're suggesting is doing two things (paying an interviewee + check, often though to make sure, if he's in it for the sole purpose of interviewee fee) instead of none which has been working just

It sounds like it's coming from people who waste their days at job interviews, not getting the desired job and then propose a thing like this. I understand it must be tough but in my opinion, you shouldn't be paid for turning up at an inter

Thank you for your own story. I have some ideas written down that could be executed simultaneously (with the right staff) so an agency type of business crossed my mind. Especially one product is designed (sorry for being so vague) in a way
