dotmanish··on Show HN: Email that self-destructs when forwarded
Does IP Address and Mail-Client identification play a role in your reader-fingerprint?

What would this mean for people in your LAN and using the same version of Mail-Client as yours?

dotmanish··on Linkrdr - Next Gen Feed Reader
Any links to the Privacy Policy?
dotmanish··on Ask HN: How to move away from Gmail
I use RackSpace e-mail hosting for own domain and also for business mail hosting. Haven't had any issues with them yet (after around 2 years).

Edit: It has IMAP, but isn't free.

and this would frustate real entrepreneurs because?
dotmanish··on [dead]
The name has a safety-net-assurance embedded into it.

"No worries, it's only an experiment. So what if the money is lost?"

dotmanish··on The Cleartrip Hurry Algorithm
Your screenshot shows the tooltip visible, which aren't by default (as already noted by a couple of commenters already).

Someone on twitter mentioned that they had bought some flight tickets only because of this 'confusion' : https://twitter.com/#!/jayeshb/status/162512878287589377

Is that a one-off case because of confusion?

dotmanish··on Review my startup - Lean Domain Search: The fastest way to find a domain name
Nice tool.

The lookups may need to be fixed -- the first two "green" domains I clicked when searching for "mobile" were actually taken. However, "green" means available, right?

I just tried it and browsed to TechCrunch.

wow.

dotmanish··on Poll: You and Mobile Development
You missed J2ME (which has certain, but not 100% overlap with Symbian OS development). Now even Bada supports J2ME apps.
dotmanish··on AeroFS (YC S10): It’s Like Dropbox, But It Runs Inside Your Firewall
I know DropBox has had security fallacies in the past.

Inside Firewall or not Inside Firewall, how is the security designed here?

dotmanish··on Developer open-sources 200+ hr project after client refuses to pay
You could have auctioned the project's code. Even on HN.

Not necessary. If you had the source code to FaceBook, most likely you won't be able to do much of it.

The one who is focused on running a business on it - yes, would make a lot of it. Irrespective of who else has the raw code.

It's akin to how attracted the opposite gender would be to you, if they knew you (however justly) burnt down a (bad) ex's house.

I have seen a friend of mine retaliating on her blogs against clients who didn't pay on time, etc.

And I also know at least 4 prospective clients (honest ones, they always paid in full and on time to their contractors) who got discouraged because they had witnessed the "worst" of this friend when things might not work out between her and the clients.
