buttsex··on Ask HN: I mentioned I accept Bitcoin to a client, will they think I'm crazy?
Have you looked into something like Bitwage (https://www.bitwage.co/)?
buttsex··on Ask HN: How did you meet your co-founder(s)?
College roommate. We named our two-man agency after our old college apartment.
buttsex··on Slack was hacked
They archive chat messages so that you can search through them later.
buttsex··on The Canadian Mincome Experiment of 1974-79
Some money would be saved by eliminating the current welfare system and replacing it with UBI.
buttsex··on MIT And Dropbox Alums Launch Inbox, a Next-Generation Email Platform
Everybody has a price. It is hard to take a promise like this seriously this early. Hopefully I am proven wrong.
buttsex··on Hospitals Are Mining Patients' Credit Card Data to Predict Who Will Get Sick
How do they know what specific items were purchased? Is there any way for a consumer to see their own data on that? Also, seems like there would be a lot of false positives as I don't consume or use everything I buy with my card.
buttsex··on Ask HN: Who started something in 2013/14 which is already profitable?
How'd you manage to get that domain name? Did you have to buy it off someone else?
buttsex··on Coinbase introduces Vault
Same with BitGo.
buttsex··on Working from home
This has worked for me too. I take a 45 min nap everyday after lunch. It helps split the day up into two parts where I am fully refreshed for both. Some of my friends find it odd that a grown man takes a nap during the day but it works great for me.
buttsex··on Firefox 29
I like the update, looks a lot better. It is the small details that keep me using Chrome's dev tools. For instance,

- why can't I drag and drop DOM elements in the inspector?

- Chrome's autocomplete seems smarter. If I go to edit a style and I type `li` Chrome gives me line-height, FF gives me lighting-color?

- I prefer the color highlight when you hover over DOM elements in the inspector, I can see the box model in Chrome but just a dotted outline in FF.

FF's tools do seem to get better and more robust with each update though.

buttsex··on How Mike Judge and Co. Are Turning "Silicon Valley" Into the Next "Spinal Tap"
Startups don't last long so it'd be pretty fitting for a show about them to only last a season or two.
buttsex··on Top Bitcoin questions I’ve been asked
Holding and speculating is a valid use case for BTC. Many people see it as an investment and don't use it as a currency so it's not absolutely false.

If you are going to use coinmarketcap, at least filter out the non-mineable coins, Dogecoin is in the top 4.

buttsex··on Mozilla Supports LGBT Equality
Found an HN discussion here: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=3793012
buttsex··on Coming Soon to Hacker News: Pending Comments
Yeah, the 24 hour rule seems a bit excessive. I see a lot of Show HN posts where the OP will respond to questions that users have about the particular thing they are showing off. The OP now needs to hope that a 1000+ user is continually monitoring their post in order for them to quickly answer any questions others may have.
buttsex··on Coming Soon to Hacker News: Pending Comments
The posting delay sounds like a terrible idea. Say I spend some time writing a very long comment to a not so popular thread and hit submit. Then I notice that someone replied to another comment of mine and had a question or something. I can't reply to him in a timely matter since I used my one comment already. So do I need to go and delete my newest comment, reply to the person who responded to me, then go back and re-comment the one I initially did? This sounds very silly.
buttsex··on Coming Soon to Hacker News: Pending Comments
Agreed. This will only work to increase the echo chamber that is HN. Any type of debate will now need to go through the HN elite. I really didn't have a problem with the current system, any obvious troll comments were always downvoted out of sight. I rather see any unapproved comment and make up my own mind on its "worthiness" instead of someone else.

buttsex··on The Face Behind Bitcoin?
Society? People have always wanted to know who Nakamoto was in real life and would consider creating Bitcoin something of note. Any news story about Bitcoin in the past couple years have included something about the mystique of Nakamoto.
buttsex··on The Face Behind Bitcoin?
Reminds me of the tea party protesters that had signs like: "Keep your government hands off my medicare!" at Obamacare rallies.
buttsex··on Mt. Gox may have lost 750,000 bitcoins
I would love to see MtGox given a bailout. So many heads would explode.
buttsex··on Gulp.js is awfully similar to James.js, coincidence?
Marketing. If you want people to use your tool, they need to know about it. Gulp has a website, a Twitter account, people writing about it, etc...
buttsex··on Why does Apple continue killing bitcoin apps?
I don't see how having a Bitcoin wallet app makes them unsafe. There are plenty of non-mainstream apps in the store as well.
buttsex··on 37signals becomes Basecamp
We managed dozens of clients at a time and one of the biggest compliments we get is on how easy it is to use Basecamp. Really looking forward to the new ideas they have in store.
buttsex··on The complete guide to centering a div
If you are using HTML tables for layout then you definitely aren't using the right tool for the job. If it isn't tabular information then it doesn't belong in a table.
buttsex··on Open for everyone
Maybe they should put the date at the bottom? So you still see it, just after you've read it?
buttsex··on Open for everyone
This would be cool. I wonder if you could easily hook in the Github diff. Though that would require a static blog version controlled in Github. And it wouldn't be too visually appealing.
buttsex··on Dogecoin market manipulation?
People were saying the same thing about Bitcoin a year ago.
buttsex··on Google will make it easy for strangers to email you
What's so bad about target="_blank"?
buttsex··on Hacker News down, unwisely returning HTTP 200 for outage message
Couldn't he just turn off registrations for new accounts? Not saying he needs to get HN to the top for a "startup" search query. I found HN by a Google search while looking for a good laptop to run Linux on.
buttsex··on New Mac Pro 2013 Teardown
If you are looking at the lower end, have you checked out the Audioengine A2 speakers? I have the black ones and while they aren't the sexiest, pure black is pretty good looking.
