This move doesn't make much sense to me. Most of the websites built in PHP are huge CMS services like Weebly, Wordpress, Joomla, or old social networks like Facebook. I don't see any of these large …

Yeah, you also have to be able to stack two games in there on top of each other.

I have a Windows Phone so I just tested some of these objections out. > Allows users to download videos from YouTube That was pretty cool, but I honestly don't need that. I can already download a…

I wouldn't say Eclipse is worse for Android dev, but I've defiantly seen 12+ year Eclipse Java developers hanging over my shoulder as I power though IntelliJ saying things like "How did you do that?" …

I like that idea of focusing on quality--I definitely feel like that is something which is lacking on $FB. Although; maybe that's my fault since I'm not training $FB's NLP engine that I don't want to…

So I love TapBots and I have paid for all of their mobile apps. When you look at their Twitter products, the amount of software they can sell is restricted by Twitters API limit. If you look at the T…

I totally agree with that. I just think that Path's future becomes questionable if they don't have a contingency plan. It would be interesting to see how much of their new user signups come from $FB…

If you build your platform on another platform; You're inevitably going to have a bad time. I don't use Path so I don't know how much of a blow this is to their platform, but it can't be good. Hopef…

This is Hacker News at it's finest. One post says use rebase, the next post says don't.

AHHH, I knew I had seen this thing before!

I wrote a speed trap application a few years ago and I used this similar structure for speed trap locations. eg http://www.vroomtrap.com/speed-trap-list/united-states/california/san-francisco/19…

It is hackable, he hacked it.

Nice! LOL.

Finally! I was trying to get something like this made 6-7 years ago for distributing CRL's. I'm glad to see it's up and running, now all I need is a buddy to test this out with. edit: The UX needs a…

I only want to know one thing. How fast can it mine Bitcoins?! I feel like that's the new "...but can it run Crysis?"
comment
Thanks for the explanation. I worked for a one of the eleven companies that still had rights to access the Firehose after the debacle and I saw a lot of great projects stymied by the new rules.

How do you plan to get around the Twitter syndication rules and regulations once this site takes off?
comment
I feel like a lot of these requests, especially in the "For a PR" section are things that only more seasoned developers have an appreciation for. Since OSS runs the gamut from bad-ass-mofos to beginn…
