I think all businesses and startups might differ enough that it's hard to generalize, but here's my experience: Startup: ~ Most people work longer hours by choice ~ Things change fast, both corporate structure and business directi

Are you implying that startups not featured on these sites have a better chance of making it longer?

Yeah absolutely. It's got to be important to find a way to control quality with in-app purchases, I just think the two proposed solutions target in-app purchases in general, not poor experiences.

Both of the proposed solutions are against the goals of the a store so I suspect it's highly unlikely they'd ever be considered. #1 lowers the amount of downloads of a free app simply because it contains in-app purchases and #2 lo

I honestly don't understand people's opinion around this. I'm not trying to refute your comment, just understand and see if I missed something. As far as I have read, Google complies with NSA letters (which seems to be requir

I think your explanation is too generic to get good advice. You should expand on what you want to do if possible. I think the best way I can explain it is that this feels the same as contacting a caterer and saying "I have an event wit

I just took a look at this and ordered on Grubhub after looking through 5-6 restaurants. I really like the choices Grubhub gives you, more flexibility over a dish. This looks nice too but I'd really like to see some more customization

Sure, it would be hard, there's some projects that might be able to help out however, e.g. https://github.com/pa7/nude.js . It's not an easy problem to solve but it's possible. You could also start the se

"Save Github" is a ridiculous title, I don't think Github is anywhere close to having a problem. They've also got a lot of really smart employees and I don't know what to contribute that they wouldn't already t

Worth noting that with a modification like that, it looks like it actually gives extra space for landing, not less. So that piece probably isn't a factor at all.

The bug you referenced is from over a year ago and in fact the feature is no longer deprecated. The documentation page [1] used to highlight the deprecated status but has recently been updated and any mentions of deprecation have been remov

Doesn't look like it. See the about page, I think that's a pretty good indicator he intends to host it (although might be open to selling a license). Why isn't this project open-source? Ultimately I'd like DevDocs to pro

I just had LASIK a few weeks ago and the experience was great. I was told I could go back to work the next day. After surgery (4pm), I was asked to keep my eyes closed as much as possible for the rest of the night. At my 9am appointment the

I think Ink/Filepicker is pretty awesome and I set up a demo recently of a user submitted gallery in under an an hour. The one thing I don't like is that the Image URLs are supplied only as filepicker.io/api/(your-image)

I agree completely. Generating traffic / gaining users is different in a lot businesses (to be extreme, you wouldn't try to sell a $50k/mo B2B subscription via banner ads on a porn site). You're very lucky in the HN is a

It's a good site and with the popularity of Ruby/Rails, I think it could be very popular. The biggest problem right now is that there's little incentive to actually pay you, so it's essentially a directory. You're already telling me these d

If you can't compete on price, you better be a genius marketer or have some sort of wild value add. Ask yourself from the perspective of your customers, why would someone choose you over other options? If your price is more, why would the

I also used Garlic.js ( http://garlicjs.org/ ) in a project. Also requires jQuery or Zepto but I was really pleased with it. Pretty lightweight.

As a programmer, you're probably a lot better at understanding what a search is/does and how to pick good keywords or which keywords you can swap and refine to get better results. Most of the general population isn't there in my opinion (ju

On Android, it's accessed much the same way as Siri and so is truly "Google Now" on that platform. On iOS, you made have to launch an app but I don't think it would make sense to change the name to "Google Very Fast" or similar. Perhaps the

My first impression was that Play related to the framework or just meaning something games related and that accordion meant the UI element e.g. http://jqueryui.com/accordion/ . I think the title is fine, but I wasn't expecting music at fir

Yeah, it lacks an actual metric and a way to measure it but I'm curious which way we evaluate ourselves. E.g. do we have more than 50% of people who feel like everyone else is better or does everyone thing they're top tier.
