Wow, what fascinating quotes. Thank you for sharing.

Burpees definitely qualify as an intense exercise. No other exercise gets my heart rate up faster. Plus, it works some huge muscle groups (quads, pecs). Great for traveling/hotel room workout or if you don't have time for the gym IMO.

I doubt they would be using your IP address to track anything, since a house full of people can be behind the same IP address. I don't know if they use cookies to track you if you're not logged in, but to be safe I would use incognito mode if you are worried about that.

I like the idea of a weekly twitter update with the master magnet hash. I feel like the purpose would not be the usefulness of the string of chars, but more to prove a point.

This is great - put on some tweet/fb like/+1 buttons so we can help spread the word.

This made my jaw drop; it's such a smart idea. I'm sure the voltage regulators and diodes benefit from a nice atmospheric cooling too.

Works for me on OS X 10.7.2 and chrome. I can move around/zoom. Not very practical but a cool effect nonetheless.

edit: can even move it around when the map is opening

That would be a great app - but there would be hundreds of MBs of images for one of his books. Not sure if there's a size limit in the app store.

Nice use of Twitter Bootstrap

Good work, but I don't like how all the images are forced to 1:1 ratio. You should try to preserve the original aspect ratio. You could either choose a width and that way you can have a certain # of columns with images running down vertically. Or choose a height and have them running left to right in rows of equal height.

How does a country's political stability affect what domain names you will use?

The nameservers for the .so domain are not physically located in Somalia: http://www.zonecut.net/dnsgeo/SO..html

Probably.

Of course not, it's all user submitted.

Great job collecting paragraph-length quotes from the movie! I love it.

Great idea! A little browser geolocation would be a nice finishing touch.

Do you have an iPhone? The Hacker News app is pretty good and downloads all the stories so you can read them offline (does not download the comments though).

Interesting idea - you would need the means to replace something like this [http://blog.crowdscience.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/08/qr_c...] or just be able to cleanly cover their QR code with your new QR code sticker.

Then they would have to purchase the item on their phone, otherwise you wouldn't get the commission for it.

Never thought of that, good point. I usually just do the "find out when to wake up if I go to bed right now" mode. I'm assuming that works for you, since they use javascript to determine your time.

Have you seen http://sleepyti.me ?

The X on the popup modal doesn't work when the site first loads.

Do you mean polonium?

Do you think it would still be "attempted lynching" if the students were white?

At first I thought you misspelled rhodes but then I realized this is the coolest thing I've ever seen.

The website is still in the oven.

Looking for PHP/javascript and/or CSS ninjas who want to work in a fun and fast paced environment. From where I'm sitting, I can see three bouncy balls, two nerf guns, and a giant bean bag. I have three huge monitors on my desk (you will too) and a screaming fast computer. This is definitely a great place to work if you like to work hard and hack hard.

We were founded by some smart MIT dudes and got acquired by Rakuten (very large Japanese internet company) but we definitely still operate like a startup. Feel free to message me for more details. Company is FreeCause (http://www.freecause.com for more info)

i dont get why people don't use copyright <?=date('Y')?> assuming they have access to a server side language

I almost started to cry last week when I had to explain the difference between Java and javascript to a recruiter that had found my resume online and called me. She couldn't make up her mind about what the client was looking for. I tried explaining they were vastly different technologies but I still don't think she got it though :(
