What else is interesting is that if you are willing to migrate to a tablet based workflow then you can get tools very, very close to par with the Adobe suite for less than $100 - and that's a one time buy, not a…
Do you expect a once in a decade (and by some measurements, once in a lifetime) crash to happen twice in the same year, or several years from now? I don't doubt there will be a second wave - the US is by most accounts…
Now I do agree wholeheartedly, but the First Rule of youtube-dl is: You Do Not talk about youtube-dl.
H1N1 in 2009-10 is best estimated to have killed somewhere from 200k to over half a million people - without the widespread global mitigation measures we are witnessing today. So, hard to say now if it will be a death…
Have been following this library for years. Love it. Favourite projects were some personal desktop apps I did with it in Electron to mangle samples in cool ways for my own music projects.
I still cant bring myself to purchase a Lenovo product because of this, despite the generally favourable reviews I see on HN regarding the ThinkPads. Its just such a revolting decision to me to do that to a paying…

I've been dabbling recently, and as I've said before I'm quite put off by the limitations of Ethereum. As it stands now, it's main use case appears to be the development of new cryptocoins, perhaps voting…
Looks like people have already started buying the dip. I've found the recent discussions around BTC and cryptocoins on this forum incredibly illuminating, from both the bulls and the bears. I'm beginning to think…
I recently got pretty pumped about exploring developing for the Ethereum network and spent an entire weekend reading everything I could about the protocol, the development ecosystem, language and anything else I could…
I very much doubt this is the case. In 2011, over half a million businesses were started each month in the U.S. in addition to the 23 million small businesses that were already around. Seems unlikely to assume these…
Could you imagine if Bitcoin was the catalyst for the next economic recession? That would certainly be out of left field.
My guess is the price would fall quite a bit, since the value of BTC currently is largely speculative. Like stocks, there would be a frenzy to turn these risky investments into cash ASAP. Stranger stuff has happened…
I agree. I wonder how many people are in this same boat. Judging by the strength of this particular marketing push, I'm guessing it's a lot. I've had an Android phone for years now and it's getting a tad too creepy -…
How is it even possible to not run in this fashion? I mean, the way you described it, is what running is right? I can't even picture someone running and landing on the heel or back of their foot. That would resemble…
I'd imagine the purpose here would fall under general deterrence. By bringing down a harsh sentence here, you'd hope that future parents would take extra care to prevent such things from happening in the future. There…
This IPO is getting absolutely torched, and for good reason. However, there is a TON of money in foodie culture and food fandom. There's a reason half of your relatives watch the Food Network non-stop. Perhaps once this…
My own feeling is that we're now smack dab in the middle of two tech hype cycles, and yeah - it does seem kind of boring right now to be honest. We've probably hit and passed peak web/app/social but the horizon…
This isn't meant as an Ad hominem, but do your team members ever show any disdain towards having to tolerate working with a person who leaves work early because they ate too much? Are you the boss? Genuine curiosity…
>> "there are effectively no barriers to entry." IMO, this will work against you in the long run. I suppose it allows you to test out ideas easily. Profit will be very hard to come by though.
>> There are some larger trends I believe that renders the idea of apps as products useless but that's for another topic. I'd be interested in hearing your thoughts on this point. May as well expound on it right here.
It's also worth noting that Italians experience some of the lowest heart disease rates in the world - one of the major killers in North America. If you want to live long, I guess live like the Italians? My completely…
I'm putting the final touches on a desktop app that will take audio files and chop and recombine them into entirely new sound libraries. The end product has been promising. But since a lot of it is node.js code calling…
This has to be an April Fools gag, right? They can't be serious, can they? I couldn't even get past the halfway point of the page before literally choking on marketing drivel. What in holy hell does this product do?
I've heard this argument and I think it's a fallacy. I think the point is that automation will indeed "break" the economy in a drastic fashion. Money and consumers is just an efficient abstraction - what's really…
