As much as I'd like to browse the depths of the Amazon from Google Maps, we still don't have Street View in Buenos Aires. Google please fix this!

Love it. Great design. Some thoughts: - I tried to drag some tasks from "today" to "tomorrow" and couldn't. Ended up marking a task as done instead. - The animation when you click the arrows is a little confusing and hard to follow.

This is great news. While we're at it, what web framework are you guys using in your Scala webapps? Lift? Wicket? Play?

Can I ask you specifically what kind of problems you ran into when you tried Wicket?

I just tried the following: $ pacman -Ss ^opera and got this: community/opera 11.01-1 A fast and secure web browser and Internet suite. Is that what you wanted to do?

The first thing that comes to my mind when I see an opportunity to integrate a Facebook login button with a website is how to attract traffic from Facebook. One of the most effective ways is publishing updates to the user's wall. However in

GWT for client side code + Wicket for server generated markup / stateful pages + Google Guice + Hibernate (or MyBatis if you prefer a more low level but simpler API) + PostgreSQL. This does everything I need. All the modern Java tooling goo

Something that constantly annoys me at work is not being able to debug dynamically loaded Javascript code (i.e. JS code returned by an ajax query, then evaluated with eval()). I know this probably reflects bad design, but unfortunately it's

Agreed. At this point, I think using JDO on App Engine only makes sense if you're porting an existing JDO application to App Engine. If you're starting from scratch, Objectify is the way to go.

Awesome! Is it possible to authenticate using my shrtn username? The current API generates links using shrtn's own affiliate codes.

What netbook do you have? A lot of popular laptops and netbooks have a page in the Arch wiki with installation instructions step by step. As an example, this is the Asus Eee PC 1005HA page on Arch's wiki: https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.p

Great idea. Congrats on the release! A couple of suggestions: - An API to generate shortened URLs automatically would be great. - Some mechanism for supporting custom domain names. Say, someone has a link shortener service with a decent amo

Critique: Applicants usually submit their resumes via email. You should let applicants send their resumes to [my company]@dropjobs.com so companies can put this email address on their website along with the embeddable jobs widget. Congrats

Craigslists is probably your best bet. There are Hacker News meetups here in BA every couple of weeks. Also, there's this thing called Palermo Valley ( http://palermovalley.com ). Check it out. My email is in my profile.

You can go surfing in Mar del Plata. Google brings up a couple of Argentinian surfing forums. Maybe ask there? No idea about skiing in Chile.

I want an app that will send me an email when a band I like releases a new album. Maybe take my favorite artists from my Last.fm profile, and make money by referring album sales to Amazon.

I'm surprised nobody mentioned E-TextEditor yet. It's a great text editor for Windows. It supports TextMate bundles and it's very customizable. http://e-texteditor.com If I'm coding Java, Eclipse is my IDE of choice.

I'd recommend Objectify instead of JDO. http://code.google.com/p/objectify-appengine/ The reason why Google chose JDO as the default interface to the AppEngine's datastore instead of JPA is because the datastore is not really a relational
