Maven / Java seem to have solved it well.

My app update was rejected because my Upgrade screen was unable to fetch prices from their servers and instead showed an infinite spinner.

It's probably more worth it than Hacker News. I submitted my new site Cancel Culture Live (cancelculturelive.com) yesterday evening and it was just removed. Months working on a new shiny webapp, it starts getting a few upvotes and trac

The red X is a vote to cancel and the green check is a vote not to cancel.

Damn you got downvoted real quick.

Some of your questions aren't easy to answer. Maybe the first two were OK to ask. Others would probably require lawyers and maybe even courts to decide. This is a pretty cool new product just being shared on an online discussion forum.

I like the idea but am irritated that there's upfront Pricing involved. If my software is sending you customers for loans I should be sharing a commission with you and that's that. Why do you need money from me to let me send you

I never understood that Google security blog post on how they could make 2 different PDFs with different content have the same SHA but now that you mention you can stuff bytes in a file unrelated to the PDF, it makes sense...

I'm ready for the downvotes but I don't think the App Store cut is crazy. They do reduce to 15% if you have long-running subscriptions with your user. Credit cards charge 3% to start. Apple handles distribution, updates, etc. Taki

Not really the same comparison. That human will eventually be able to take care of itself and do a lot more for this world than the dog ever will. Pets don't always make sense, and I tend to agree with parent. Or maybe Wag should just

He's the one doctor whose stuff I've read that I think make most sense. You get a lot of people saying he's crazy, though. Wonder if anyone on HN has ever had any success reversing hair loss? The ultimate hack, if you ask me.

Right, but the cost of you distributing 4x as much software could be next to nothing.

One feature of my app is the PDF creation of invoices and estimates. I use a Java library to make these PDFs. Developing an iOS, web, and Android app that syncs in real-time is much easier (or even possible) when your PDFs are made on the b

As a 2+ year user of Firebase, this is long overdue. I built my own cloud function infrastructure using their Java SDK and Digital Ocean and I couldn't have built my app (ProBooks.com) without it. It's good to see Cloud Functions

Airbnb is a joke. Who the hell would actually rent their home out to a complete stranger for a $100 payday one weekend? Not to mention you can just rent out a single room in your home. Like you want some stranger to temporarily live with yo

Funny, I was thinking the exact opposite after I had been on the site for 10 minutes or so. It's sad that you get sites making 'slideshows' getting 20 page views per visit for stupid slideshows like 'Celebrities who have

Doesn't Yelp for doctors, lawyers, accountants, etc solve this problem?

Actually laying things out in iOS, coming from an Android background, was something I could just not grasp. It was a big driving factor in me going with Ionic, which lets me use flexbox.

And this isn't the same law the 1 days are using? Are you suggesting that DK and FD will end up doing season long paid sports and everyone will be OK with it?

by chuinard 11y ago
No, pretty sure fantasy sports is legal because people do it for fun / a bet amongst themselves. Maybe I'm wrong but I haven't seen any season-long fantasy sports sites (like Yahoo) offering millions of dollars in prizes in e

Have you considered seasonal affective disorder? http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Seasonal_affective_disorder You mentioned the cold. I find my energy levels are a lot lower when there is less sunlight.

I would go to Yelp for this info (usually the store hours). The site looks good but just throwing that out there, I don't think you have any info that Yelp doesn't.
