  1. Link to travel blog platform that included clips of transcoded videos?

    I remember seeing a link posted a while back (1 year?) for a blogging platform that included embedded, transcoded video clips. It was very nicely designed. The author opensourced it, from what I remember. Does anyone…

  2. Link to previously posted travel site with embedded short video clips?

    A while back (maybe over a year ago?) someone posted an opensource travel blog platform. He had short video clips that were automatically transcoded (I think). I think his name may have been "Justin." I can't seem to…

  3. Ask HN: Is getting a PMP certification a good idea?

    I'm noticing a lot of overseas jobs, especially in the the Arab Gulf countries (UAE, Qatar, etc.) require it for various project manager roles and, in turn, are paying about $100k a year. Does anyone have any info on…

    From recent posts, I'm concluding that Javascript is the next thing I should learn (employability, resilience, usefulness). There are so many resources, however, so I'm not sure where I should begin? JavaScript: The…

  5. Ask HN: Anyone have an older Macbook that you're willing to sell cheaply?

    My hard drive crashed and my optical drive stopped working. I lost some unbacked-up data, and I cracked something on the motherboard while trying to diagnose the problem with the optical drive, resulting in the display…

    I've built, and validated the need for, my app but I don't have the funds to grow it; there's a sales component to it and I need to hire some sales reps to scale. The app also requires a sizable upfront expense per…

  8. I've decided to dive in mobile dev. Which iOS book/s sites should I read?

    I am a VERY novice programmer (some light Rails sites), although I feel that I can learn anything. What's the best way for me to learn how to develop mobile apps on iOS? Which resources would you recommend?

  9. What do you do to improve productivity, performance, & quality of life?

    For example, I start off my day with 3 sets of max-rep pushups immediately after waking up. This gets my blood circulating and removes any lingering drowsiness. I also take a daily fish oil supplement for the myriad…

  10. PG on Bloomberg: Don't Look at Groupon's Numbers

    I found this sort of strange. He mentioned that Andrew Mason is a smart guy, and by definition, smart guys end up figuring out that a bad idea is eventually bad. But I don't think investors and money money managers know…

  11. Ask HN: Looking for a post; please help. Biology journal-related

    I don't remember what the title was or what the post was about. It might have had something to do with science journals. There was a comment that linked to a site that listed a bunch of biological journals (I think)…
