Very nicely done, I love it! Thank you!
Fastidious··on Imgur: Introducing GIFV
It is an mp4 video.
Fastidious··on Final – A credit card built for the 21st century
Is anyone else experiencing "jumpy" page on the website?
Fastidious··on Show HN: RecipeWriter – An editor to write recipes
It would be nice if I could see the recipes without the need to sign on.
Fastidious··on Atom: Editor window startup is slow
It adds up. More and more applications are that fat. My system drive is 1 TB, and I am a point in which I need to judge which application is worthy of taking space. I agree that 400 MB for an editor is a tad too much.
Fastidious··on Ask HN: Should I drop school?
"You are" not. Grad student. :-P
Fastidious··on Ask HN: Should I drop school?
Don't. Finish, get the diploma, you will need it.

Have you paid for your credits until now? Not graduating is also similar to throwing all that money to the trash.

Don't. Finish.

Fastidious··on Command-line file sharing
Add a cron job to that (to manage timed deletions), and you got a very sweet setup! :-)
Fastidious··on OS X Bash Update 1.0
That doesn't make any sense. Yosemite is on DP and Public beta, yet still vulnerable. One thing has nothing to do with the other.
Fastidious··on OS X Bash Update 1.0
"OS X Mavericks v10.9.5 or later" doesn't include Yosemite.
Fastidious··on [dead]
No. There is a Developer Preview, and a Public Beta. Both have been around for a while. Old news.
Fastidious··on Make in India
Shouldn't it be "madeinindia.com?" Really messy website.
Fastidious··on Don't upgrade to iOS 8.0.1 or you may experience “no service”
Correct, iPhone 5s.
Fastidious··on iOS 8.0.1 released, broken on iPhone 6 models, withdrawn
Apple just pulled out the update.
Fastidious··on Don't upgrade to iOS 8.0.1 or you may experience “no service”
Upgraded, everything works just fine. T-Mobile.
Fastidious··on Hosting for Node.js apps done right
Too expensive, in my opinion. The dashboard looks nice, simple and clean though.
Fastidious··on Oort Online – a next generation voxel MMO
This looks great, my child would love it!
Fastidious··on Yes, we’re being bought by Microsoft
Next steps:

- Replace Mojang/Minecraft account with a Microsoft Account, use it to login

- Minecraft installer comes with Bing

- Minecraft ported to C#, Java version discontinued. Name changed to Microsoft Minecraft 1.0

- Minecraft servers can only be run in Azure, legally

Fastidious··on Show HN: I wanted a fat-free, bare-bones wget for Windows so I made Nugget
Strip VirusTotal out of it, or make it an option, not a default.
Fastidious··on CraftBukkit Taken Down from GitHub Using DMCA
This is three or four days old mate. Already was submitted.
Fastidious··on Ask HN: Bitcoin Faucets
They are made for two reasons, one they volunteer, one obvious: 1) Show beginners how does it feels to "own" fractions of bitcoin (educative?), 2) Make money. The second is accomplished by advertising, very heavy advertising.

Needless is to say, it is mainly an advertising pit, and the only one making real money is the one running the "faucet."

Fastidious··on Innovative UI
It might be innovative, but it is very confusing. Innovative, but bad.
Fastidious··on Standard Markdown
Markdown is dead. Long live kramdown! :-)
Fastidious··on Show HN: Self destructing, encrypted messaging with file upload
Not related to the original post, but sharefest.me does not work with all browsers.
Fastidious··on How can I monetize a free Mac app?
Ads are rubbish, and destroy the user experience. Do you want to make money with it? Sell it.
Fastidious··on Chartist – Simple responsive charts
Thank you.
Fastidious··on Chartist – Simple responsive charts
This website is using SVG graphics, very nicely. Is there a tool (GUI) that does that? Is it an export from a program like Illustrator, or is there something easier --and cheaper-- to do this?
Fastidious··on Show HN: Pixyll, a minimal, mobile-first Jekyll theme
Very nice. My only complain is the huge footer. It really doesn't match the theme. Also, bulleted and numbered lists have smaller fonts, and their line height is odd.
Fastidious··on Dropbox Pro – 1 TB for $99/year
Beta testers are under NDA, sorry.

Update: I stand corrected, it seems it was released yesterday. See http://www.bittorrent.com/sync/download

Fastidious··on Dropbox Pro – 1 TB for $99/year
Any reason why ExpanDrive install FUSE 2.6.X when 2.7.0 is latest release? Anything on the horizon for Yosemite? Thanks!
