Typically to get my bearings on Web Frameworks, I build an Amazon clone. Why? * I can use the frameworks "partial views", header, footer, sidebar. * I can use the frameworks stylesheets/javascript/ima…

The first time I used tabbed browsing was using Opera waaaaay too many years ago. :)

I really look forward to the media and prefetching API's. They seem really needed, and now that I've read about them, I wish I could use them in production.

Is this all you do with your time on HN, post duplicate links? You're not actually helping and just cluttering the thread.

I've personally launched and tanked two projects so far. In both occassions it was a matter of my competitor having more money, meaning more dedicated programmers putting in dedicated time. I have a f…

Some of the tasks are at least an hours worth of work and they are offering a bounty of 1$? You need to prune these types of job listings, they're just spam and completely unrealistic. Example: https…

Competition is good and benefits the consumer (us developers) greatly! While I cannot see how this would work and be useful for languages like Ruby/Python/PHP, maybe the Light Table creator does - and…

HN should detect duplicates on submit.

In this day and age where things can be so easily (well, it's more feasible to say the least) faked, how can people know if this is legitimate or not? I'd love someone with more knowledge in this area…

I agree with you, I'd love to find the time to learn Clojure. Hopefully things slow down a bit for me this end of the year I'll find some quality time to sit down and learn.

I live in Bolivia, my time is definitely not the same as your time. My cost of living here is SIGNIFICANTLY lower than yours.

Not tit-for-tat- same thing, but same ballpark. A tweet accusing someone in power of doing something wrong.

The same thing happened here in Bolivia. Samuel Doria Medina, tweeted that President Evo Morales had sex with a minor (17 years old) and she was pregnant. The following day the mother of the minor (a …

I'm with you on this one. I 'get' that you have the benefit of being able to just 'code' and have it run without you touching anything, but what about your content? A database on Heroku and other simi…

For me, being a polyglot programmer is about being able to sit down and get comfortable usage from any language or framework. I started out with VB.Net in University, during my second year started usi…

I've tried Github Pages, not intuitive AT ALL, terrible user experience. I'll look into prose.io

I'd love for a blogging platform that let me use custom CSS, Markdown (because I post code all the time on my blog) and free hosting. Where is something like that? Wordpress, atrocious code support. J…

This sure is a pretty boring post. I guess what I'm trying to say is, "So?" This is hardly news worthy, just run of the mill update that comes at delegated intervals in the business world.

I want to buy this device, but it's not available in my country (Bolivia). :(

Reminds me heavily of our Vice-President Alvaro Garcia Linera (Bolivia) going on record saying: "I'm reading every negative post on Facebook that speaks ill of the government and writing down names. N…

But what about Jar Jar Binks! Rabble rabble, hate hate! --- I bet the internet feels silly at this point.

SEEKING WORK - Remote - US ex-pat living in Bolivia I'm a C#/Ruby/PHP developer that specializes in creating web applications that are responsive, fast and hand crafted. I write all of my HTML by hand…

Thank you for your valuable input! /s For a Windows server admin like myself, this course sounds ideal, the things you mention are important no doubt but how important are they for a person just start…

Fuck this pardon my french. This is bullshit squatter scumbag.

We use HelloSign at your company for easy contract signing - best of all it's free. The ONE thing that I feel is missing is letting people use a purchased certificate from a trusted provider. We need …

I tried creating my account because I read that it was possible to pay using PayPal, but on the final checkout screen under payment options I can only see Credit Cards listed. Is it because I am from …

If this is true I'm definitely jumping on the bandwagon. I can afford 8$ for the first year to test the market. I have a lot of ideas I wish to mesh into Windows Phone applications. :) Now, the market…

It's a design technique where the artist creates user interfaces that tries to mimick the real life object as much as possible. Take for instance some of the apps on iOS. The have book bindings, rings…

The thing is, some websites do not lend themselves well to it. If you're building a social site like 9gag or whatever, you kind of WANT that Facebook Login button to be there front and center. Your au…
