One of the long withstanding issues with Python 3 has been that some of the major libraries have yet to support it. I think this is great news for the Python community. Hopefully more will follow suit soon.

This is true, but their ratios are remaining relatively the same. "Soylent 1.5 has a 94 percent increase in omega-3 fatty acids (DHA, ALA), a 92 percent increase in the omega-6 fatty acid, linoleic acid, and a 17 percent reduction in t

Neat. This is very helpful. Hopefully it actually fixes the WiFi performance issues. I created an Alfred workflow for myself based on the terminal commands listed in the article to quickly enable/disable WiFried on Yosemite. It basical

If you have an Automatic and want to use both, this will be a no go since each will need to use the OBD II port in your car.

It's definitely snappier and now looks responsive too! Thanks for the hard work kogir et al!

Besides offering lossless quality images, JPEGmini allows a much larger file size. Compressor.io only appears to allow 10MB files, which if you're trying to use it for photography, it won't be very useful because the jpeg's p

I'd go out on a limb and say that anyone who's been President of the United States is smarter than you (or almost everyone). It takes a lot of intellect and masterful knowledge of the political and social systems to become Preside

Nice. I'd love to see templates so you can easily customize depending on what kind of environment you want so you can start from zero. E.g. 1. Development 2. Design 3. Engineering 4. Management 5. General use It&#x2

This is neat. I think it'd be pretty awesome if it were possible to download all the dmg's/installers/apps in a folder/drive without installing them so at a later date you could a) install everything without having

I think this is the first time in recent history that a company actually took care of its users after acquisition. Most of the time after the deadline to export your content, it's a big "fuck you" to the customer. At least L

This almost seems too good to be true. Can you stream .MKV files too? Looks like there's no iOS or native apps yet. I guess we just use our browser and stream directly?

IMO, Crashplan's service is terrible. On a university network I was never able to max out my upload. With BackBlaze I was able to max it out. Crashplan's built on Java, which is the reason for the RAM usage, while BackBlaze is nat

I believe the free plan allows you to export up to 5 times.

Rejection is inevitable. If you're not rejected now, somewhere down the road you will be. If you haven't been rejected, get practice in getting rejected. If you have been rejected, feel the frustration and use it as motivation to

Well done. Everything is accurately explained using simple terminology. I'd love to see this expand beyond just layouts. CSS is overwhelming to beginners, but this is dead simple while still delving into deeper, more complex topics.

Bike messenger services are commonplace in the NYC area. Uber is using their logistics prowess to make it more efficient and probably cheaper.

The website is so nice, and I thought all the material would be from the Superhero.js team too. Upon further review, they link to other sites, and some of them are not as user friendly and nice looking. The change of UI between each lesson&

Firstly, I enjoyed his talk. It was pretty insightful into the ways so many businesses and corporations today think, and how we've lost track of building the future. However, there's one thing that really bugged me about his talk

I backed this project as an early-bird. I'm not sure why you need 4 memory buttons for the deluxe frame. All I need is one more button (maybe two)! Just let me set the height I want it to be at when I'm standing and sitting. If I&

Great news on the mobile front. Thanks for HN, pg!

by rafeed 12y ago
As mentioned in another comment[1], the reason HN grew and got off the ground was because of who was behind the incubator/site. PG was well known in the scene when it started. I certainly commend them for getting the site off the groun

Wow. Office for iPad actually looks pretty great. This is great news for Apple and the Windows users out there who didn't want to use iPad for lack of official MS Office products.

Cool, I was thinking about one for a while, but I see one problem. Harlem Biospace doesn't really scream "Hacker News for Biotech". Not intended to offend the Manhattan based incubator that charges $1k for a desk/month.

I've actually been working on something quite similar and will be launching soon. Good luck to OP.

I was about to watch it all the way to 2048, but then I realized that even at a rate of 1 point per second, I'd be looking at a block jumping up and down for over 34 minutes. So I thought better and went back to work. Haha, almost got

Haha, this is surprisingly easier to get to 2048 than the original 2048.

This is great news. Many colleges and universities have been focusing on these types of startups for the past 5-10 years for their own VC type competitions, and now YC is seeing the value in them too. Hopefully many others will follow suit.

Interesting, I've been happy using Preview.app for signatures by just downloading/saving as pdf and signing it through there. It's not as seamless as doing it online through this, but at least it's secure and easy to do,

I watched this run for about 5 minutes and it failed at 1024 with under 5000 points. It looks pretty cool, although it defies all logic when forming the squares (it put the largest number in the middle several times).
