This promotion is of course targeted toward writers but how amazing would it be to have 2-5 focused days to hack while on the train? Perhaps mobile connectivity would be an issue in some locations but the upside of the focus-time would pro

For live demos, I use Airplay to mirror the display to an AppleTV. For online demos, I use an app like AirServer or Reflector that make my laptop an Airplay-receiver and then share my desktop/screen over G+ hangout. I highly recommend

If it takes 90s to test 2^32 floats then it should only take about 12,257 years to test 2^64 doubles.

Why not make the Inspector app listen on a predefined port? With no configuration (like if launched from Xcode) the client-app could try to connect to inspector at localhost on that port. Otherwise, do what PonyDebugger does and allow you

I love Spark Inspector but they just don't respond to support requests. Because it uses Bonjour to connect your app to the Inspector, if you are on a corporate LAN, the Bonjour publish often fails. The only work-around is to disable

The Apple server cannot read your messages because it is encrypted client-side. https://www.schneier.com/blog/archives/2013/04/apples_imessa...

It would be cool to be able to download an SDK and build experiments with this without having to email sales and engage in a licensing agreement for the software first. I've always appreciated the fact that SaaS products like parse.com, tw

This is really great! Pleae make a podspec and turn it into a CocoaPod.

The comments here remind me of the negative feedback Heather Arthur got when she dared to open-source some code: http://harthur.wordpress.com/2013/01/24/771/ . The code is on Github. If you find a bug then why not fix it and send a pull-

NYC, mobile developers, most jobs are in the 70-80k range with 1-3% equity. That is a low salary at a small amount of equity for someone with a relatively in-demand skillset. Please check my maths: in the best case scenario, if you get 3%

I'm not going to argue about whether what they did was right or wrong but I am going to argue about why they make the decisions they do. A company with a 475B market cap doesn't just do things to be "elitest and a d*ck". I often see these

Am I the only one that noticed that when the page loads, it shows an image very similar to stripe.com's cloud-with-gears image? Here are the two images overlayed on top of each other: http://i.imgur.com/pEuIbiD.png?1

I have been out doing interviews I had one go something like this: INTERVIEWER: I see you have been a carpenter for 15 years. Can you tell me how a hammer works? CARPENTER: Well, you swing the hammer at a nail and the nail goes into the wo

I'd like to talk about this from the other side of the table - the interviewee. I think interviewing is broken but I really don't know the answer how to fix it so I have to just "play the game". I'm pretty good at "playing the game" but I

It seems their algorithm has codified age discrimination. It's a shame really that this is a component of their strategy.

I believe that most people pay. It is perceived to be cheaper to pay off the extortionists than to mitigate the DoS attack.

I sent the Parse guys a tech-support request on Friday morning before Memorial Day weekend. Most places you send emails to are a black hole and I didn't really expect a response until after the holiday weekend, if at all. To my surprise,

So, I'd like to give a helpful response, so don't get mad when I say this but it seems to me that Apple's response isn't canned here. It looks like they've identified that you've declared the use of certain features, such as UIBackgroundMo

I believe the rule is that the Javascript cannot be dynamically downloaded. It must be a static resource that ships with the phone.

I could implement this pretty easily in an app or as a library that people use as a replacement for the existing keyboard. So while I could not fix built-in apps, it could be a nice fix for downloadable apps. The only question is if I bui

Your argument makes sense and I agree with you. Too bad I got so many downvotes, I thought it was a fair question.

So I saw this video on reddit and thought it was really cute but said to myself at the time, "I hope this doesn't wind up on hacker news because it's not really hacker news". So I'm honestly not trying to "big bummer guy" but I always thou

One fear I have is that HN is going to turn into reddit or digg. I have always come here for no-nonense hacker news with a strong emphasis on startups and technology for startups. I hope that we can avoid posting too many memes, joke repl
