I wish to gently but firmly disagree. The thousands of $$ on audio software are spent because they actually provide the exact output needed. Think of them as a precision-tooled machine part critical to the production flow in a factory. Sure

Yeah, that's what HIBP does. See here: https://www.troyhunt.com/ive-just-launched-pwned-passwords-v... I really feel Troy has handled HIBP very, very carefully, honestly, and with the utmost transparency so far. He see

Two potential causes: 1. Location matching - both your apps detected you in the same place for an extended period of time. Maybe you guys had mutual friends in the music community? 2. Microphone[0]. They have since refuted that claim[1], bu

It's called shadow profiling[0]. Even if you haven't signed up for a facebook account but someone you know has an account, they by proxy, you have an account. Merely existing as a contact in their address book is enough to create

The page on Tax Reform[0] seems... interesting. Here's the first paragraph: > Anyone who fills out a tax form knows how harmful the U.S. tax code is today – punishing hard work, savings, and investment. American frustration with th

Well, I have been trying a hobby-dev project that is kinda along these lines but I am almost on the verge of giving up. The problem is, the feed/stream API endpoints for most of the services mentioned above, either do not exist or have

I think Ingress is a close match to your description. Also, Lyft and other ride-sharing apps work along the same principles, I think. Similar techniques are also being used for the new-age anonymous messengers, but I may be wrong about thos

I am more disappointed by the comments than the announcement itself. The first few comments seem to be blaming last.fm for 'giving up' without actually trying to understand why they made those (extremely) difficult choices. The mu

Actually, Sublime Text 3 [0] (although in Beta) is quite stable and already has massive support within the community. I was lucky enough to get started with ST in my early days (not too long ago, tbh) and I haven't felt the need for a

C'mon, who wouldn't want an employee who boils a watch and looks at the egg while contemplating the basic nature and equations that make up the physical sciences? ;)

People close to me used have told me on numerous occasions that I fall into the category of glib-talking, high-flying, never-finishing 'charmers' that the author mentioned in the prose. It took me a while to understand that my goi

Do keep in mind that this letter (essay?) was written in an era when SMS wasn't a thing and getting an education involved (quite literally) crossing your t's and dotting your i's. A keyboard wasn't a thing yet and spell

I was toying around with your (quite excellent) Yowsup library a little while ago and the one question I always had was this: Since WhatsApp doesn't have an official library, wasn't Yowsup always in the cross-hairs? I mean, it was

Slightly OT, but I ran the text your blog post through the TextAnalysis API demo (another link on HN's front-page today) and got a very interesting summary. In fact, I think it captures the soul of your post in the last two/three

Django n00bs like me owe a great deal of our learning to Randall. His book, 'The Heroku Hacker's Guide' is an excellent resource for anyone looking to deploy a Django project quickly and cleanly to Heroku. To that end, he als

Good work! Just a suggestion: You should probably look to collaborate with this guy: https://haveibeenpwned.com/ The two of you together can help us (l)users know when we've been pwned...

Uh, dammit. I signed up and then realized I hadn't updated my LinkedIn profile in a long, long time. How much will this affect the results? To be honest, I am quite a lowly foot-soldier in terms of work-experience and, therefore, not e

Edit your post and use double-enter to create paragraphs; single-enter is treated as a continuation of paragraph. HN uses a very sparse markdown format...
