So it would depend on the state that your SaaS company is located in, or where your customer is accessing it from?

This may be a silly question, but does this sales tax also apply to SaaS products that you might sell? Or is this only for physical products a la Amazon?

I really had wayyyy too much fun playing this, for how "simple" it is. I'm very impressed with what was possible in just two nights. Thanks a lot for sharing!

Wow, yeah. Document fragments seem to be even faster than my original createElement. I'm really going to have to re-evaluate how I'm creating new DOM elements.

That sounds way more realistic - I'm not sure what's going on when I'm testing, but I may try later to repeat.

I find myself constantly trying to fight the urge to be lazy with JQuery, since I tend to forget the performance hit it entails. For some concrete numbers, I updated a JSPerf that I found to include a raw JS implemention. http://jsperf.com

Soooort of off-topic, but I've actually had a lot of success using Cloud9 IDE ( https://c9.io/ ) as an in-browser editor. It really closely mirrors Sublime Text 2 as far as default functionality and appearance goes. Of course, I'm coming fr

Another mystery of how a story can stay on the front page for hours with one comment while others drop off more quickly with active discussion happening. I know it's been discussed before, but sometimes I'm very confused about the ranking o

This is actually a little more in-depth than some of these types of lists get into. I really liked some of the metrics tracking that they suggest adding in. It's unfortunate that this is getting posted to HN, though, before their actual sit

The term "Heroku" doesn't even appear in the post at all, so I think this is definitely one example where it does make sense to match the HN title to the blog article title.

It sounds like a pretty sweet deal, but I kept looking up and down the page trying to find the catch. Is it purely a promotional thing for the companies to which you get credit? If so, I think it could use some emphasis that you are getting

This. I really hope they're able to get that integrated soon. That would be awesome.

I may be interpreting the post wrong, but I took some of the lack of detail as a kind of challenge for someone to figure out how to make it happen. To me, it sounded like someone saying "a cell phone should be weightless and have infinite b

I think in this and many other industries, people that are otherwise talented and intelligent individuals write these types of "trumped up" resumes only because they know that everyone else is doing it. If they don't also exaggerate the

This kind of reminds me that, although I'll read a lot about programming and startups, I haven't learned anything about writing (formally) in many many years. Does anyone have any good recommendations for books about writing non-fiction? Th

I see what you did there... Just kidding. But to contribute something to the discussion: I was just recently wondering when the best time to publish a "Show HN" would be. In that case, your content is what it is. The time factor would defin

Yeah, I actually have the immediate response of bouncing back from that type of landing page. I have no idea what it does, so I have no incentive to sign up. I suspect that some may sign up just to find out what it is. I wonder what the eff

That's a pretty interesting scenario, though it sounds difficult. Is there any possibility of hearing more about what specifically you are offering? I would ask because it sounds like there would potentially be an opportunity to get those w

Well that's good and well for an individual or a small group, but the classic case for patents is in things like pharmaceuticals. A patent protects someone from reverse-engineering something that a company may have spent years perfecting fo

Totally agree, but from my understanding it's often the editor that decides the title, rather than the author. I'm sure that depends on the publication, though.

Sort of meta, but I thought the blog post was really effective at bringing the new pricing to my attention. I had looked at filepicker before, but with the new Free plan not tied to bandwidth I'm really excited to give it a try. Not to ment

Ah, so in that case it would literally come down to not wanting to have to innovate. If they truly thought that people preferred to have it the way it is, you'd think that they wouldn't be afraid of this.

I'm sure this has been answered before, but why does it matter to Craigslist if it's data is being used elsewhere and is clearly marked as Craigslist data? Say Craigslist is paid for real estate listings: they already have the money, and th

Yeah - the most recent that I've heard is 400 karma (so it's not always true that 'karma doesn't count for anything')
