brianshaffer··on Show HN: Flowlingo – practice a foreign language with tech news
I like it. I like how I can click words or phrases in the article and it translates them directly. The video section es muy bueno también. Gracias por tu ayuda!

Good point. There may be some things that are needed publicly, which you could whitelist. I've seen the whole directory behind the auth on a handful of sites though. ex] tether.to/wp-admin

Solution: add http auth to your /wp-admin directory
brianshaffer··on Ask HN: What does a non-programmer bring to a 2-3 person startup team?
This falls through when the business guys try to build out a spec - especially to be used by outsourced developers. They use "human logic" and the bridge between the database and user experience breaks. Spending 10 hours, learning how software thinks, will make these types of teams way more practical and effective.
