TallboyOneon Stripe's list of prohibited businesses

That's not absurd

TallboyOneon Kids can't use computers, and why it should worry you

I hate these idiotic titles. It feels like I see at least 5 titles a day that are broad sweeping generalizations that all have the same tone. Of course kids can use computers, don't be stupid. Maybe a small subset can't. If that's not what the article is about, then don't put it in the title.

And also.. I went to read the article, saw the extremely arrogant TLDR and closed it.

TallboyOneon Exposing Patent Trolls

When will this law be put into place? What are the chances of it passing?

Each time I see a patent trolling thread it makes me so mad.

TallboyOneon Exposing Patent Trolls

Can someone explain to someone who doesn't really know much about this topic other than that it angers them immensely... why can't the laws do anything to stop this nonsense??

TallboyOneon The Hardest Logic Puzzles

What's a counterfactual? can you give a simple explanation of how that solves the problem?

TallboyOneon How to slaughter a patent troll in 5 steps

Can someone explain to me HOW these exist? Every time I read a story about patent trolsl it enrages me. How do these even exist?? I get the gist of what they do, but how come they don't have to pay any money, or even back up their claims?

How hard would it be to just pass a law that stops these $&% pricks? Will this happen any time soon do you think?

TallboyOneon iPhone 6: An edgy concept

Is this a joke? Lol, how are you supposed to use this with one hand. The design (from a presentation perspective) is beautiful, the idea from a practicality standpoint is 100% useless. I couldn't tell if this was serious until I was like 75% of the way through.

TallboyOneon Twilio is erroneously over-billing and suspending accounts

Should have used <= instead of <

Best of luck

TallboyOneon Better line numbers for Vim

I just wrote to the mailing list about that patch... it slows vim down so much, it makes the feature entirely unusable :( I wish the old way was back.

TallboyOneon Effortless monitoring with collectd, Graphite and Docker

Datadog is very cool. What are some of the other solutions out there that are similar? I like how it mostly just integrates with anything I need, that makes things easy for a non-enterprise-level project.

TallboyOneon Hey programmers, we need to talk

I really dislike the phrase "we need to talk"

shudder

TallboyOneon NeoCities can now handle two million web sites

Please dont add that design :|

Now for homebrew next hopefully :D

TallboyOneon Debuggex: visual regex tester – now with PCRE

If you like tools like this one, here's some more. There's a lot of 'visually see' the regex type tools.

As one who always forgets regex after 3 months of not using it, I find them helpful :)

I particularly find this one fascinating, even though I don't fully grasp: http://jkff.info/articles/ire/

TallboyOneon Vim 7.4a ready for beta testing

Nice! How long does vim usually stay in beta? I'm not familiar with Vim's release cycle

TallboyOneon Somewhat Verbatim Conversation with a Startup Recruiter

You've been downvoted so many times I can't even read you're text. That is pretty much a new record I've seen on HN.

TallboyOneon New History Tab in GitHub for Mac

So you can see all your old commits? You mentioned something about it looping I thought. For me it just goes back all the way until the beginning of time.

TallboyOneon Show HN: I made an HN job board

So, a generic bootstrap theme that looks broken in parts, is not laid out efficiently at all when you click a job, and requires me to put in my HN login information ? I'll pass.

TallboyOneon Nginx just became the most used web server among the top 1000 websites

Probably because of the 10 trillion $1/month cpanel accounts

TallboyOneon New History Tab in GitHub for Mac

Maybe restart app? It infinite scrolls properly for me

TallboyOneon SSL Report: duckduckgo.com

So.. I got an "A" rating but not 100% in all categories. Is there any way I can improve on this (nginx)?

I have a lot of users with older browsers so that's really important, not sure if that matters.

TallboyOneon A list of front end development resources

Awesome! :) Great list by the way -- good work

TallboyOneon A list of front end development resources

I don't know what planet you live on. That's like saying stack overflow is in charge of making sure every excellent question/post is seen, or reddit, or hacker news...

My job is to develop features that facilitate people finding exactly what they're looking for, and ideally things they aren't looking for and don't even know exist. That's a difficult challenge though, while still retaining engagement features like comments to discuss resources, proper categorization of favorites, etc. I started a wiki to help with this but it's only maybe 25% complete. There are plenty of other ways on the site to help with that though.

TallboyOneon A list of front end development resources

I'm sorry you don't like it. But I assure you there are hidden gems on my site that you won't find in the gist (even though it's an absolutely fantastic list - great work dypsilon).
