The idea of owning a tablet by Google creeps me out to no end. I just can't picture myself using this without the lingering feeling of having Big Brother tracking me, watching me, keeping tabs on what…

The entire point of this project is to modernize it, and give it a user friendly UI. If you want Terminal usage, just use Vim.

Using Firefox (latest) this runs extremely slow. I'm talking about 8 frames per second. I'm also using a decent high range video card.

Thanks for the quick response. This has tons of potential and I'm real happy things are on the roadmap. Can't wait! As I mentioned, and I may be wrong, but people interested in this service will most …

How can I add new navigation elements and pages to my JekyllHub? The UI needs a bit of work, because I've been searching for a while and can't find that setting anywhere. :( Loving the service though,…

Either I'm finally losing my sanity, or I've actually seen this posted here before. Same title an all. Then follow up was "Yeah really I want to program at 50." Am I going crazy HN?

I own a Kindle Fire (not hd) and I downloaded a shit-ton of .mobi ebooks from ThePirateBay, I can read them just fine on the device. Still, after this story broke I regret buying one. I hate companies…

>Really guys? Nobody gets that it was actually a design solution to fit in the slimmer body of the 5, as well as a step forward technologically. Fanboy. >I picked up the iPhone 5 on launch day…

Man, I know exactly where you're coming from. By the time I can get some work done it's 11:35pm and my brain is starting to mix up the keys on the keyboard and I get sloppy. What can be done? I wish t…

I didn't make that choice, it just happened. I don't regret it one bit, if that's the way my previous message came across. I'm just saying that I wish I had more time to work on some ideas I have. But…

Married, two children. I find myself wishing the days lasted 36 hours instead of 24. :P I have a full time job as well and do not have the time for pet projects. After work I get home and have some fa…

Why does this submissiong have a "| kellabyte" tag? I thought that wasn't allowed here.

So basically you live like a leech or a hobo, bumming on other peoples couches. How "Zen" of you, "dude".

So? If I were to go to Saudi Arabia and wear jeans and a wife beater I would get looks as well. You find it strange that people look at you funny when you wear a hijab in a western country? I have a M…

Hope this picks up, there are some things I'd like a Sensei to teach me "well". For example MongoDB, "Where should I use it?"

>However, their private-repo based pricing model is obscene, in my opinion. Completely, 100% agree. It's ridiculous. I would use Github exclusively if not for their ass-backwards pricing scheme. I…

On the one hand I feel bad for his wife, she's suffering over something she had nothing to do with. Her husband lost his job and now she has no health care insurance. On the other hand, this guy was p…

Quick hypothetical scenario. If I were to open a free wifi network and let anybody use it, say call it: "Free Internet!" and many people used it. Could I intercept those users personal information suc…

Sorry, I can't but the perks are small enough to not be a big deal for the sender but big enough to be useful to me. ;)

I'm a long time Reddit and mod for a big subreddit - it's not meaningless. There are TONS of perks you get when having a high comment karma count. Physical, actual benefits.

I come to hacker news for the tech and programming articles, but this is just too interesting! :) Thank you for sharing!

Yes, you need a 90MB FLAC file to hear all those "decibels bro". http://www.codinghorror.com/blog/2012/06/concluding-the-grea... http://www.lifehacker.com.au/2012/04/mp3-or-lossless-see-if-... …

Too bad their search feature is absolutely horrendous. Searching for a simple term like "The Matrix" doesn't return any results at all.

What does it do? And what is used for?

>are productivity killers Don't state this as if it were fact. They're productivity killer for you . Because you have been using Vim for so long. A person who is balls deep familiar with Sublim…

I agree with learning or at least being a bit familiar with nano. It's probably the best way to edit a small one-off file via SSH. Imagine you want to quickly change a directory path in httpd.conf, in…

Something like Sublime Text 2 is a good compromise - the best of both worlds. Some power behind it, not unsimilar to Vim/Emacs.
Some beauty behind it, not unsimilar to other commercial text editors / …
