What amazes me is how Microsoft consistently explains design with obviously aliased images using nasty, bandy palettes. I hope the explanation is that their web publishing framework just sucks and has no oversight,…

I'm doing a (tangentially related) twist on this sort of thing, so I'll ask you the questions that haunted me for months until I could answer them about my own project: Who's going to use this? I mean, what's the…
You could still use bcrypt and do the comparison work server-side. Depending on work factors and whatnot, it's now a backend load balancing issue. But it's probably solvable.
I suspect they are matching bits. Though since this is going through hashing, the number of matching bits has (by design) zero correlation to how close the P/W is. In which case, yeah, I think the binary indicator would…

About as much of a stretch as using a unicorn for "delete", because unicorns don't exist. I'm getting increasingly concerned that web UIs are trading away usability for design in Apple's wake, forgetting the part about…
I think it's interesting that the #1 feature on their features page is labeled "Always up. Always on."
And unfortunately that with outages like this, that number's probably not increasing anytime soon.
Once again you're demonstrating that you really don't know how to use Mercurial, but feel the need to bash its usability anyway. hg update <branchname> will do exactly what you want. It's even the same command…

Indeed. I had to audit the source believe it, but this is actually legitimate. Massive abuse of data url's and keyframes, but it works.

Better to play whack-a-mole than play Manhattan Project. And nobody has to play whack-a-mole. iTunes is a perfect example of "getting with the times".
For the purposes of this argument, they do. Apple is the client; they buy the manufacturing. Whereas with Microsoft, the factories are the clients of Microsoft OS's.
Ironically, the reason this won't work is the same reason SOPA won't: proxies. HN is one of the largest gatherings of hackers anywhere; give us a break. That's in addition to the fact that it's consensus that emails…
While I totally agree that the subject of the article is a Thing (read: "notable"), this is an inflamatory essay and complaints forum more than an encyclopedia entry in its current state.
As a UW alumnus doing a full-time startup a few blocks from UW, I actually don't see much of this "vibrant start-up scene" happening. This is entirely my fault, which leads me to the question I've been wondering about…

I took a quick look and here's what I've gathered. This thing gives the impression that user code is pre-emptible (it really just forks the process under the hood), whereas using vm naively risks blocking your process…
